Happy Monday ☕️

I came here to say that I love just/justfile(s) 💥https://just.systems

I will start a project just to create the justfile 🚀

It is such a satisfying tool to use if you are working in the command line

Getting Started 🧨

The barrier to entry is incredibly low:

  1. Install Just: I use a Mac, so that would be brew install just (or use your package manager). https://github.com/casey/just?tab=readme-ov-file#cross-platform
  2. In your project root: just --init
  3. Edit the generated justfile to add your commands
  4. Run just to see available recipes

I always add a default command and use just's build in --list
`# --- Default Command ---

default:
just help
help:
@just --list`
this is super helpful

it has built in command completions which is awesome, and tons of cool features. if people like this, I will probably type up some more notes to share 💣

sincerely,
🦆
