Pure Bash Bible
This project is a curated knowledge base and technical reference for shell scripting, focused on performing common system tasks using only built-in shell features. It serves as a guide for implementing logic and automation without relying on external binaries or dependencies, ensuring scripts remain portable across standard Unix-like environments.
The repository distinguishes itself by emphasizing native shell functions and syntax to minimize process forking and improve execution performance. It provides idiomatic patterns for complex string transformations, pattern matching, and data flow management, allowing developers to replace heavy external utilities with efficient, built-in alternatives.
The collection covers a broad range of system administration and automation techniques, including file management, configuration handling, and environment isolation. The documentation is structured as a technical resource for developers seeking to write portable, lightweight scripts that function consistently across different command-line environments.
