Thaum, a simple boilerplate and templating command line utility

In plain words

Thaum is a command-line tool for creating project boilerplates and scaffolding. It enables developers to set up new projects using simple mustache templates stored in a thaum_files folder, with minimal configuration required. The tool searches the file tree for the nearest template folder and generates files accordingly, making it straightforward for developers who need quick project setup without complex scripts or extensive setup processes.

Thaum is a simple boilerplate and scaffolding command line utility. Thaum is a boilerplate and scaffolding command line utility. It purposely requires little to no configuration and does not require you to have anything more than a mustache template to make a boilerplate. (Read: No script.) $ wget "https://github.com/Flaque/thaum/releases/download/v0.6.0-beta/thaum" -O "/usr/local/bin/thaum" && sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/thaum to install the binary into your path. Your templates go in a folder called thaum_files . Thaum will look up the file tree for the nearest thaum_files folder and use that one for your command. $ mkdir thaum_files Then create your first template! This is just a folder…from flaque.github.io

  Devbox – Easy, predictable shells and containers2022 · github.com · ▲515

  Devbox is a command-line tool that lets you easily create isolated shells and containers. You start by defining the list of packages required by your development environment, and devbox uses that definition to create an isolated environment just for your application. In practice, Devbox works similar to a package manager like yarn – except the packages it manages are at the operating-system level (the sort of thing you would normally install with brew or apt-get).

  Minum – A minimal Java web framework2023 · github.com · ▲165

  I am happy to announce my minimalist zero-dependency web framework, Minum, is out of beta. http://github.com/byronka/minum You will be hard-pressed to find another modern project as obsessively minimalistic. Other frameworks will claim simplicity and minimalism and then, casually, mention they are built on a multitude of libraries. This follows self-imposed constraints, predicated on a belief that smaller and lighter is long-term better. Caveat emptor: This is a project by and for developers who know and like programming (rather than, let us say, configuring). It is…
