I had pretty much the same questions as you - that landing page does a terrible job of explaining exactly what it is that this app does.
Here is my 'use case'. Whenever I want to work on one of my mobile or web apps, I set up my environment to open TWO terminal windows within my working folder (one for normal CLI commands, one for IRB or other specific console), perhaps run up a local web server for testing, SSH into the staging server, and load up the local preview URL in at least two installed browsers for testing. Sometimes XCode or Atom/VSCode too with the proper project loaded up. Oh, and opening my BitBucket and Confluence pages to the right project would also help a great deal.
Having to do this sometimes multiple times per day for different projects I am working on can get tedious, so I am hoping that this app could automate a lot of this with a single click, but I don't know from that landing page whether it even comes close to this.
[EDIT - I notice they have added a video to the landing page now which explains what it does and how it works in an infinitely better way. And from that, it DOES look like it will meet my needs above!]
- cwisecarver 9y agoYou might want to try tmuxinator (https://github.com/tmuxinator/tmuxinator https://github.com/tmuxinator/tmuxinator).
- vlunkr 9y agoI hadn't heard of this. I've recently been a writing a small bash script for each project to accomplish the same thing (in a more verbose way). It works pretty nicely.
- cyberferret 9y agoThat's a nice solution. Probably a little more 'manual' setup up front, but looks like it will do what I need it to once the config files are created, so I appreciate the heads up.
