Bash is a shit „language” and everytime i need to write the simplest thing in it I forget which variable expansion I should use and how many spaces are the right amount of spaces. It’s impossible to write nice to read bash, but even in C you can write code that comments itself.
It's perfectly possible to write nice to read bash, and to also make is safe to run and well-behaved on errors.
But all the three people that can do those (I'm not on the group) seem to be busy right now.
Yeah you lost me at well behaved.
Still better than powershell though
bash sucks but i don’t agree. Some simple rules like regularly use intermediate variables with useful names and never use shorthand arguments goes a long way.
