    AI-powered bridge from natural language to shell commands in CLI.

  • If you have followed me till here, do checkout my first CLI tool I made in Javascript, and published on npm: Naturalshell. Naturalshell provides AI in your terminal, no need of memorising shell commands now! You can checkout the npm package here and the github repository here. Do drop a ⭐, and feel free to add new features and build on naturalshell with me!

  • yargs

    yargs the modern, pirate-themed successor to optimist.

  • Your tool now automates project setup, but there's room for improvement. Consider adding more features or handling user input to customize the project structure. Explore packages like yargs for parsing command-line arguments. You can learn more about yargs through their official documentation here.

  • SurveyJS
