On: Ask HN: Do you still build terminal tools for fun?

[jlundberg]

Yes, our whole customer support is CLI based. We probably have more than 200+ custom internal tools now.

Many tools use simple coloring, like this (in Python):

print( red( ”Warning: xyz” ) )

That's awesome — love seeing serious CLI-based workflows like that. Feels efficient and hacker-core I'm also a big fan of minimal terminal tools. It's cool how even simple color highlights like red("Warning: xyz") can boost usability a lot. Totally agree — sometimes all you need is clean output and fast feedback.
