There are some projects which I've migrated from bash to js, in the middle of the migration, we had a mix of both. This project would have been really helpful to make that migration quicker. Of course, it wasn't ideal, but there's always a journey before the destination.

i feel like you could avoid some of the kind of annoying syntax like array iteration and conditional syntax. would it be better to know that stuff 100%, and write it in pure bash? yeah. is it one of those todos that people like me never seem to get around to, and this is kind of a stop gap? maybe. it doesnt seem entirely useless
