  ScrapScript – A tiny functional language for sharable software2023 · scrapscript.org · ▲503

  Hi friends, I started casually working on scrapscript in 2015.

Email me at [email protected] if you're interested in joining the core team later this year. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback :)

Handy for replacing one-line-based package.json scripts or shell-based Makefiles. One can also write documentation and explanations to various commands in the same `.md` file.
