Tree notation looks fun... I was reading what I think is the spec (https://github.com/treenotation/blog.treenotation.org/blob/m...)? I honestly can't make quite heads or tails of it, but I do get an sense that giving cells 2D size is important. Then I looked at the language examples and... none of them seem to really use this idea of cell size??

Am I missing something?

• motllo

  1 18 0.0 Python

  Project templates without needing a repository

Oh, this looks similar to my "motllo" project, [1] (and so many other projects, mine wasn't the first either). I have variable substitution, but no additional logic. For me the point was having a "readable" representation of the template.

• gomplate

  3 2,465 9.0 Go

  A flexible commandline tool for template rendering. Supports lots of local and remote datasources.

Cookiecutter is nice but it requires an entire python install to run, which is a big thing to ask for some of the scenarios mentioned by the tool creator (like someone going through a simple learning tutorial which might not even be using python at all).

IMHO gomplate is a nicer alternative that's just a single static go-based tool that can do everything cookiecutter does and a lot more: https://github.com/hairyhenderson/gomplate

• golem

  3 7 4.3 Shell

I use this pattern a lot along with a tool I built for doing server deployments and administration using plain old shell scripts and ssh (golem: https://github.com/robsheldon/golem/).

There are two caveats:

First, if there's any chance at all that the heredoc may contain a $, or a `, or possibly some other shell-magical characters, then you have to use a single-quoted heredoc:

  cat <<'EOF'...

• nasty-files

  2 41 0.0

  Some files with nasty names

I have a collection of non-utf8 and other problematic files:

You probably cannot clone the repo on Windows. It works well on Linux. But in KDE you could not delete it afterwards

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• asciinema

  11 2,204 9.4 Elixir

  Platform for hosting and sharing terminal session recordings

  

Oh no need to, it's not that related and I think both stand out well on their own. As for the animated demo, it was with asciinema [1] (I think, it's usually what I have used in the past for this). Thanks for your good work!
