  • mise

    dev tools, env vars, task runner

  • Where are you getting "mise uses asdf" from? mise is simply compatible with all asdf plugins. Not the same thing.

    It's even said almost at the top of the README.md in the "30 seconds demo" section:

    "The following shows using mise to install different versions of node. Note that calling which node gives us a real path to node, not a shim."

    https://github.com/jdx/mise?tab=readme-ov-file#30-second-dem...

    So yes, mise does not use shims. It only manipulates $PATH. I did benchmarks a while ago and that definitely and consistently has shaved some milliseconds off of the startup times of my tools.

  • python-build-standalone

    Produce redistributable builds of Python

  • It also replaces "just" as a task manager for me which is very pleasant.

    The fact that the python plugin uses precompiled Python binaries by default instead of building them from source remove common issues I had with the asdf's python plugin at work with missing dependencies.

    Just so you know, I encountered two little quirks that needed a fix:

    - [Backspace Key Doesn't work in Python REPL](https://github.com/indygreg/python-build-standalone/blob/mai...)

  • mise-poetry

    Poetry plugin for the rtx version manager

  • direnv

    unclutter your .profile

  • I switched from asdf to mise after a comment on lobste.rs[1] suggested I do so a few months ago, and I have been very happy with it.

    It sands off some of asdf's sharp UI edges and provides a somewhat larger but still reasonable feature set; I've also replaced most of my direnv[2] usage with it.

    The mise -> asdf comparison page is useful[3]
