Documentation?
DenisCarriere opened this issue ยท 4 comments
Hey @dongli this looks like you put a lot of effort into this project, however could you provide more documentation on how to use it? Improving the docs might increase new contributors to your project and it would help "newbies" like myself to know what this tool does.
Best of luck and I'm looking forward to try out STARMAN
.

Hi, @DenisCarriere Thanks for your warm greeting and good suggestion! I started to write starman
to solve my own problems about setup dev environment several years ago, and I have gained a lot of skills during this course, such as build many kinds of softwares : ). It works like homebrew
but with consideration on other Linux OSs. But, it's a pity that starman
didn't draw a lot of attentions like homebrew
. Documentation is always my pain because I have strict time scheduler or maybe just lazy : P. Currently, I am using Docker a lot, and found it is a worry-saver, so my development on starman
may slow down. If you are still interested, I can listed the functions and places to be improved of starman
. Cheers!
I'm a Docker fan as well, if you are saying that homebrew
& Docker
does similar things, then I would stick with those and keep this project as a "nice to learn things".
๐ Keep it up on your next projects! I'm sure you'll do great things! ๐
homebrew
and Docker
all provide a unique environment, but homebrew
is limited to macOS (there is a linuxbrew
, but I haven't check it out for a long time). So I am switching to Docker
right now, but the time I spent on starman
will not be in vain, you can found some useful tips about building software there (I hope so~).
๐ Nice stuff! I'm a fan of Docker
