In plain words
SHML is a markup language designed for creating shell-based user interfaces. Launched in 2015, it allows developers to build interactive command-line applications using a structured markup format rather than writing complex shell scripts directly. SHML is useful for anyone developing terminal applications or command-line tools who wants a more organized, readable approach to UI creation. The tool stands out for bringing markup-based simplicity to shell environment development, making it easier to design and maintain text-based interfaces.

After seeing https://charm.sh a few months ago, I've been enamored by the idea of SSH apps. I decided that a blogging platform focused on developers could be the perfect use case for an SSH app. Also, I love writing lists. I think restricting writing to a set of lists can really help improve clarity in thought. The goal of this blogging platform is to make it simple to use the tools you love to write and…
