liblifthttp VS yadm

https://github.com/jbaldwin/liblifthttp

I created a C++17 HTTP client which is backed by curl and libuv (linux only! sorry windows). I think a lot of people have done this or something similar but almost all of the ones I looked at either exposed the curl api directly in some fashion or had extremely weak async support. So my main motivation was extremely easy asynchronous queries for high throughput with a very modern C++ API that has as good as you can get memory safety, or at least as good as modern C++ will let you get. No raw curl calls or api exposed at all. I used to find it extremely difficult to make C++ HTTP calls, now its a real breeze.

My next project is a bit more ambitious: https://github.com/jbaldwin/libcoro/ -- I'd like to make a C++20 HTTP client from the ground up with first class coroutine support, and I'll be using lift as a benchmark to beat performance wise.

Everyone hand-rolls their own dotfile management system, but YADM already does everything you need:

https://yadm.io/

I've been working around this using tools built on top of git like [yadm](https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm) and relying on `ls-files` to list all my tracked dotfiles and their paths.

Still having everything in one place would make things much simpler. Great idea!

I wonder if the program i use to manage my dotfiles could help manage your scripts and extend your setup to all your desktops? Its called yadm (https://yadm.io/) it makes it so easy to have a laptop and a desktop or two.

I really like that one but still prefer yadm because you can just edit your files as usual and then yadm add them wherever you are.

If you haven’t already, this is the time to install a tool like yadm and get your computer configuration into version control. Your command-line tools can be managed by yadm directly, your system settings can mostly be managed with a yadm bootstrap script that runs things like defaults write, and the software you install can be managed with a Brewfile that the yadm bootstrap script uses to install software with Homebrew. Don’t manually download Xcode, use xcodes to do it.

I personally use YADM. It's basically a git repo on my home folder, that only tracks what I explicitly set. And you can setup bootstraps to do what you said, install a bunch of stuff or make custom changes. In it's essence, it's a set of bash/sh files that are executed sequentially when you launch the yadm bootstrap command.
