Would be interesting to use Textual to make an interactive mode where the user can navigate through the list of ports/boards - displaying information about them - and then choose to build/clean etc.

I found Textual a bit more than what I needed, but was already underway with click and rich-click, and just needed an input/choice/dropdown.
