Dead simple testing framework for Bash with coverage reporting

transpiler written in bash: painless shellscript, indentbased, coffee for the shell with hipster-sparkles v1 BETA LANDED 🎉🎉🎉🎉 thanks fcard!

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 ma

ReBash - bash scripting library/framework

Simple templating engine based on shell.

timep is an efficient and accurate state-of-the-art trap-based profiler and flamegraph generator for bash code. timep does much more than "providing per-command execution times" -- it maps the full call-stack tree for the bash code being profiled, and (optionally) uses that call-stack tree to generate a FlameGraph of the profiled bash commands!

An elegant option/argument parser for shell scripts (full support for bash and all POSIX shells)

This project is a static analysis tool and linter designed to improve the quality, reliability, and portability of shell scripts. By performing deep structural analysis, it identifies common programming pitfalls, syntax errors, and security vulnerabilities before scripts are executed. It functions as an automated code reviewer that enforces best practices and helps developers maintain consistent, robust code across different operating environments. The tool distinguishes itself through its dialect-aware grammar resolution, which adapts its parsing logic based on the specific shell interpreter
