About:
Hayagriva is a command-line tool and library for parsing and managing bibliographic data. It primarily handles YAML-based input files to generate formatted bibliographies and citations. Its main value proposition is providing a streamlined, modern workflow for academic and technical writing.
Key Features:
  • Parses YAML-based bibliographic data
  • Generates formatted bibliographies and citations
  • Supports CSL (Citation Style Language) for formatting
  • Rust-based library for high performance and safety
Use Cases:
  • Generating bibliographies for academic papers
  • Managing citations in static site generators
  • Integrating bibliography management into custom Rust applications
Alternatives:
  • BibTeX – Hayagriva uses human-friendly YAML instead of BibTeX's format, but can likely interoperate.
  • Zotero – Zotero is a full GUI reference manager, whereas Hayagriva is a CLI tool focused on file-based workflows.
