How to initialize your program

public static void main(String[] args) {
    ScreenManager sM = new ScreenManager();
    Navigation nav = new Navigation(
        sM,
        3       // amount of items shown for each page.
    );

    declareScreens(sM);     // Method used to declare all Screens
    
    // Binds a given Screen. You can get a Screen by using a getMenu or getArticle method given by the ScreenManager.
    sM.bindScreen(sM.getMenu("welcome_menu"));  

    // Starts the Loop with the given Articles and Menus
    nav.loop();
}

Example on how to declare menus and articles

public static void declareScreens(ScreenManager sM) {
    sM.addMenu(
        "welcome_menu",
        new Menu(
            "Hello World this is the title of the Welcome Menu",
            Arrays.asList(
                new Option(
                    "Article #1",       // Description 
                    () -> { sM.bindScreen(sM.getArticle("article_1")); }    // What is executed.
                ),
                new Option(
                    "Article #2",       // Description
                    () -> { sM.bindScreen(sM.getArticle("article_2")); }    // What is executed.
                ),
                new Option(
                    "Next Menu",       // Description 
                    () -> { sM.bindScreen(sM.getMenu("main_menu")); }       // What is executed.
                )
            ),
            sM
        )
    );

    sM.addArticle(
        "article_1",
        new Article(
            "This is the title of the Article #1",
            Arrays.asList(
                new StringStyler(
                    "This is the 1st line of the Article of color a bright blinking white\n", // Text
                    StringStyler.WHITE, // Color
                    StringStyler.BLINK, // Mode
                    true                // Bright?
                ),
                new StringStyler(
                    "This is the 2nd line of the Article of color green with a normal style and not bright",
                    StringStyler.WHITE,
                    StringStyler.NORMAL,
                    false
                )
            ),
            sM
        )
    );

    (...)
}
