About:
Bash-Snippets is a collection of over 30 lightweight command-line utilities designed to streamline daily terminal operations. It provides tools for tasks like weather checks, currency conversion, URL shortening, and QR code generation without requiring heavy dependencies. The suite aims to boost productivity for developers and sysadmins by offering quick, scriptable solutions for common information retrieval tasks.
Key Features:
  • No external dependencies (pure Bash)
  • Modular installation (install all or specific tools)
  • Wide range of utilities (e.g., weather, crypto, shorturl)
  • Simple, unified command-line interface
  • Lightweight and fast execution
Use Cases:
  • Quickly checking weather forecasts or currency exchange rates from the terminal
  • Shortening URLs or generating QR codes for sharing
  • Automating information retrieval in shell scripts
  • Looking up cryptocurrency prices without leaving the CLI
Alternatives:
  • tldr – Focuses on simplified command help rather than utility scripts
  • curl – More powerful for raw HTTP requests but requires manual parsing
