Hear me out: A scripting language that compiles to bash or sh (any suggestions?) in c/programming@programming.dev

https://github.com/tdenniston/bish is one such language.

I'd also recommend Shellcheck which helps prevent many problems with shell scripts.

How do you get your team to write tests? in c/experienced_devs@programming.dev
[–] EvanHahn@bigshoulders.city 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Small idea: "AI" tools can write simple tests for a given function or class. I don't blindly endorse these tools nor is it a complete solution, but the time save might convince a reluctant developer.

I've had the most success patiently arguing the value of tests over time (years). When a bug would've been caught by a test, mention it. When someone would've moved faster with a test, say something. I haven't found "I'm right, let me convince you" pushes to be very effective.
