Mise: Dev tools, env vars, task runner

1. mise

   1 70 12,649 9.9 Rust

   dev tools, env vars, task runner

   you should see this in tomorrow's release, or you can install with cargo from main branch now: https://github.com/jdx/mise/pull/3414

3. devenv

   2 102 4,699 9.9 Nix

   Fast, Declarative, Reproducible, and Composable Developer Environments

   

   Did you try https://devenv.sh/? It uses Nix under the hood but with an improved DX experience. I haven't used it myself personally since I find Nix good enough but I am curious if you would still choose mise over devenv.

4. devbox

   3 62 9,231 9.5 Go

   Instant, easy, and predictable development environments

   

   I read the project's Readme and all I'm left with is "why?".

   I use Devbox[1] and get access to the entire Nix ecosystem, done.

5. just

   4 192 23,257 9.5 Rust

   🤖 Just a command runner

   

   Justfile[0] was a more familiar makefiles replacement for me

   [0]: https://github.com/casey/just

6. Task

   5 122 11,976 9.5 Go

   A task runner / simpler Make alternative written in Go

   

   Have enjoyed replacing makefiles with https://taskfile.dev/ which looks like it could be more powerful due to being able to detect changes etc. But glad Just has been good.

7. mise-action

   6 1 69 8.9 TypeScript

   there is a `mise generate github-action` command which uses https://github.com/jdx/mise-action

   not sure I understand what you mean by "mise steps (having to rewrite / unable to use dependencies etc)."

8. Poe the Poet

   7 9 1,524 8.2 Python

   A task runner that works well with poetry.

   

   You might enjoy https://poethepoet.natn.io/ it makes tasks easier, and you don't even need poetry to benefit from it (I use it with UV these days)

9. direnv

   8 177 12,896 7.9 Go

   unclutter your .profile

   

   https://github.com/direnv/direnv/issues/443 but it is not clear to me if it is working for bash

10. process-compose-flake

    9 1 129 8.1 Nix

    A `flake-parts` module to spin up processes for development by leveraging `process-compose`

    

    > This is already a solved problem with Nix shell (except the task runner part)

    The task runner part is also solved in Nix. See

    https://github.com/Platonic-Systems/process-compose-flake

11. services-flake

    NixOS-like services for Nix flakes

12. fnm

    11 67 19,018 8.8 Rust

    🚀 Fast and simple Node.js version manager, built in Rust

    

    I switched to https://github.com/Schniz/fnm a while ago and it’s been fantastic. I also bake it into all of our Packer images at work.

13. nsnvm

    12 2 2 3.7 Shell

    Nuño's stupid node version manager

    I built my own version on nvm (called nsnvm, for "Nuño's stupid node version manager") to solve this. You can see it here: https://github.com/NunoSempere/nsnvm Absurdly fewer features (and might break npm install -g), but very worth it for me for the reduced startup times.
