Bashful Scripting

I have an above-average interest and pleasure in developing bash scripts and I share that passion in various ways. I bundled all of them in the Bashful Scripting network.

Bashew Script Microframework

My biggest project is a work of love I started in 2017 as bash-boilerplate and that resulted in github.com/pforret/bashew . It’s a tool to create bash scripts, with high-quality boilerplate code, batteries-included.

Bashful Scripting Newsletter @ Revue

I started a (+- monthly) email newsletter with curated links to bash-related content. Tips & tricks for development, interesting bash projects, articles on advanced or beginner’s topics. I get a lot of content from Hacker news and Github.

Learn Bash in 27 minutes @ Github

Something I did, inspired by the various learn-X-in-Y-minutes projects.

Basher Packages Directory

Any serious development environment needs a system for package management (install/upgrade/uninstall). I work with basher, developed in bash by Juan Ibiapina, because it’s the most intuitive in my opinion.

E.g. basher install pforret/splashmark installs my splashmark program in 5 seconds, and it works immediately.</p>

What was still missing, however, was a directory of basher compatible projects. So I started one: www.basher.it/package
