#nl.js A small node tool for launching projects in one command.
##Why? As a web developer, I've noticed a considerable amount of time being spent switching between projects. Because the web is such a rich place now, each time I switch projects, I have to open any number of the following things:
- Photoshop / Gimp / Inkscape / The artwork in general
- An editor / IDE
- A terminal window that's in the correct path
- Sass, Grunt and other "pre-processing" things
- Git / issue pages
I wrote nl.js to streamline this process. Each project I work on gets a dedicated nl.json file stored in ~/projects. Now each time I open a project to begin work, I simply open a terminal, cd ~/projects/project-name && nljs.
###It's messy It's a personal tool, developed exactly how I've required it, sorry.
###Using nljs
This has only been tested on a Debian (Ubuntu) environment.
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/isdampe/nl.js.git nljs-master
cd nljs-master
sudo sh install.sh
cd /path/to/project
nljs init
vi nl.json
Make your changes and save it, and then finally to execute all of apps:
nljs
