  Wait for multiple services to become available with zero dependencies

> Zero dependencies seems like a weird selling point, especially since it depends on Clap, Tokio, a Rust compiler...

Came here to make the same comment. 0 dependencies would mean/infer (at least, to me) a lack of any dependencies but that doesn't seem to be the case[1]. There are 30 matches for the word `dependencies`.

  Process Compose is a simple and flexible scheduler and orchestrator to manage non-containerized applications.

The IMO superior https://github.com/F1bonacc1/process-compose project has this built in, while allowing to manage regular programs that don't require containers.

  How to wait for container X before starting Y using docker-compose healthcheck

With Docker compose, there is a more idiomatic way to achieve this with zero dependencies using healthchecks[0]. Works well!

I used wait_for_it.sh for the purposes exemplified in the OP until I found healtchecks could be used instead.

It works on MacOS/Windows, unlike systemd. Therefore it's well suited for development environment setups for polyglot teams.

https://devenv.sh/ is one example that uses it to do just that.
