ok folks, hit me with your most ridiculous, overpowered "go away or I will replace you with a very small shell script" examples

not mining this for a listicle or anything, i just want to see cool stuff ppl have done with basic tools

the kind of stuff I'm thinking of:

- bashblog, a static blog generator https://github.com/cfenollosa/bashblog
- "Command-line Tools can be 235x Faster than your Hadoop Cluster" https://adamdrake.com/command-line-tools-can-be-235x-faster-than-your-hadoop-cluster.html
- bocker, "Docker implemented in around 100 lines of bash" https://github.com/p8952/bocker
- suc, "a slack clone in 5 lines of bash" https://the-dam.org/docs/explanations/suc.html

(more low-powered version: https://github.com/dylanaraps/pure-bash-bible, https://github.com/dylanaraps/pure-sh-bible)

#bash #sh #unix #linux #cli
