  • Bashly – Create beautiful bash scripts from simple YAML configuration
    11 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 25 Aug 2021
    Shameless plug, I wrote https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof as a generalized tool for what this does, i.e. generate boilerplate from a DSL.

    https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hofmod-cli is the same idea for generating Go CLI boilerplate.

    hof uses CUE instead of Yaml, can output to any and multiple languages, and uses diff3 so you can work in both the output and the design at the same time.
