About:
Twty is a lightweight command-line interface tool written in Go that allows users to post tweets directly from their terminal. It streamlines social media updates for developers by eliminating the need to open a browser or GUI application. The tool supports authentication and basic timeline viewing, making it ideal for automated or rapid status updates.
Key Features:
  • Written in Go for high performance and single-binary deployment
  • Simple CLI syntax for quick posting and timeline checks
  • Minimal dependencies, ideal for server environments
  • Supports standard Twitter API authentication
Use Cases:
  • Automating status updates from scripts or CI/CD pipelines
  • Quickly posting updates while working in a terminal-centric workflow
Alternatives:
  • t (twitter-cli) – More feature-rich with timeline management, but written in Ruby
  • rainbowstream – Interactive stream viewer with colorized output, but heavier dependencies
