Bash, the Developer's Swiss Army Knife
summary
Shows practical Bash scripts used on Linux to provision machines (using Homebrew, curl, jq), install about 50 tools quickly, generate SSL certificates and manage Docker archives, and demonstrates deployment anti-patterns alongside a safer alternative. Uses shellcheck for static analysis, bats for test-driven (mocked) tests that move from failing to passing, and an explainshell-like parser to decompose complex commands; the scripts are executed live and integrated into CI.
