Bash is great, but when it comes to writing more complex scripts,
many people prefer a more convenient programming language.
JavaScript is a perfect choice, but the Node.js standard library
requires additional hassle before using. No compromise, take the best of both. The zx package provides
useful cross-platform wrappers around child_process, escapes arguments and
gives sensible defaults.
Install
npm install zxAll setup options: zx/setup.
