bash-boost: a set of library functions for bash, useful for both scripting and interactive use
I've compiled and revised a bunch of battle-tested bash functions and "bash·isms" into modules that can be separately loaded as needed. (As of now, there are 103.) Check them out here if you're interested: https://github.com/tomocafe/bash-boost [A few demos here](https://github.com/tomocafe/bash-boost/tree/main/demo) [Manual of functions](https://github.com/tomocafe/bash-boost/blob/main/src/MANUAL.md)

Author here. To give credit where it's due, the event system is from https://github.com/bashup/events, and it's just as useful for writing modular bash in other contexts.
