pastel VS asdf

pastel: A command-line tool to generate, analyze, convert and manipulate colors.

I'm a fan of standalone binaries statically linked to musl for small command line applications. One such CLI app that releases this way is Pastel, a comprehensive color utility.

fd is my very first Rust project. In fact, if you go back in (Git) history, the project was originally written in C++. I have created various other Rust command-line tools since then, but I love coming back to fd, as I personally use it the most.

How does this compare to pastel?

I am using ASDF (https://asdf-vm.com/) as my Version Manager.

'asdf' (a version manager) is great for this.

I'm using the tool tfenv to manage Terraform versions. Other tools can do that. You can use asdf, too. I saw that asdf can do more than manage Terraform versions.

After a little research I came across starship (also written in Rust) which is a “blazing-fast, and infinitely customizable prompt for any shell”. I deleted almost all of my .zshrc and replaced it with eval "$(starship init zsh)". I also had to manually add hooks for asdf, direnv and a couple of other tools that I had been relying on oh-my-zsh plugins for.

adsf [adsf] is a tool that installs versions of popular tools like kubectl.

I'm personally partial to https://asdf-vm.com/ since I use it for a bunch of other tools as well.
