I wrote a matrix digital rain implementation in under 50 lines of pure Bash.. I chose Bash due to it being widely installed and extremely portable. With modern systems this shouldn't cause any noticable performance changes and seems more than efficent so far
Looking for feedback, contributions or whatever helps 😆. If it interest you at all, let me know what you think about it!
For a PoC project, I decided to use bash for some basic features.
I don't want to use some compiler and a standard and heavy "CI/CD" stack.
Finally, 6 months later, the script was a "fullstack" container scheduler, with WEB API handler (socat !), admin backend, load simulator... Satisfying all requirements.
You can do everything with bash.
Ok, it's not a production-ready solution, but it's maybe not worst than #Java.
(remember the log4j issue last year... How is the cost to respawn very old industry project to update this useless library ?)
