CLI tools at Aha!
As we make updates to our ops and similar CLI utilities, we often improve the user experience by taking advantage of various Ruby gems. With little effort compared to low-level coding with curses, our command-line utilities that used to be cryptic and confusing are now interactive, easy to use, and — dare I say — elegant.

Ok y’all. How can we get this kind of real-time memory profiling in Ruby? Does it already exist? Is anyone working on this?
As a follow up, if anyone is interested in working on something like this, Ruby has an official curses gem supporting the curses family of libraries.

Parallel progress output from different threads
First, a word of caution. "Updating" a terminal or console is possible, but it is rife with gotchas and inconsistencies. The go to library/application for this type of interfaces is Curses. There are Ruby bindings, but this injects a system dependency that may or may not be available on a given platform. Also, Curses is way overkill if all you're doing is output.

CLI in ruby using OptionParser or GetoptLong
Few days ago I've created a script for the project I'm working on. It was an ugly script with hardcoded values, but it did ther job - create tokens on request. But I've decided to improve it a bit, because sometimes I needed to change params and I've added ability to submit params from the command line. Of course, there are a lot of awesome libraries such as dry-cli, TTY Toolkit or cli-kit from Shopify, but in most cases you can use standard ruby libraries like OptionParser or GetoptLong. Lets see how you can create a CLI utils with those libraries just in few minutes.

Looking for a tutorial or a resource to write good looking CLI applications
Saw just now. Cobra is huge and offers a lot. Btw, I've used this https://github.com/piotrmurach/tty for a Ruby project a while ago and was looking for something similar. I guess Cobra it is. Thanks again!
