ShellJS is a Node.js shell command library that provides a portable Unix-like utility suite for cross-platform system automation. It serves as a cross-platform filesystem API and a process wrapper for spawning and controlling external system subprocesses. The project translates Unix shell commands into equivalent operations for the host operating system, allowing scripts to run consistently across different platforms. It supports the registration of custom commands and the integration of third-party plugins to extend its portable shell capabilities. The library covers broad capability areas

Supports: macOS, Windows, Linux, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Android with Termux.

Execa is a promise-based process execution library that serves as a wrapper for the Node.js child process module. It functions as a shell command runner and subprocess management tool, simplifying the execution of external commands and binaries. The library distinguishes itself through automatic argument escaping to prevent shell injection and the use of abort signals for graceful process termination. It also provides an inter-process communication wrapper for exchanging structured JSON data and messages between parent and child processes. Its capabilities cover a broad range of process I/O

A tiny cross-platform promise based wrapper around child_process.spawn.

Windows support for Node.JS scripts (daemons, eventlog, UAC, etc).

Promisified cross-spawn.

This is a super simple npm module to run shell commands in parallel. All processes will share the same stdout/stderr, and if any command exits with a non-zero exit status, the rest are stopped and the exit code carries through.
