About:
Scriptisto is a language-agnostic build tool that allows you to write build scripts in any programming language. It compiles or prepares the script on the first run and caches the binary for subsequent executions. This eliminates the need for complex build pipelines for simple scripts and ensures dependencies are managed automatically.
Key Features:
  • Supports any programming language with a shebang
  • Automatic dependency installation and caching
  • Single executable workflow for complex scripts
  • Cross-platform compatibility
Use Cases:
  • Creating portable CLI tools without manual dependency management
  • Rapid prototyping of scripts in languages like Rust or Go
  • Automating repetitive tasks with compiled performance
Alternatives:
  • Nix – Nix is a full package manager, while Scriptisto focuses on single-script portability
  • Docker – Docker containers are heavier; Scriptisto provides lightweight script execution
