Contribution Guidelines

App to be submitted

Not all tools can be considered. The aim of the list is to provide a concise list of awesome CLI tools and apps. This means that all suggested software should:

• Do one thing and do it well.
• Have a free and open source license.
• Be easy to install.
• Be well documented.
• Be older than 90 days.
• Have more than 20 stars (if it is hosted on GitHub.)

Pull request to add an app

Contents:

Add the app at the bottom of the relevant category. Use the following format for the entry: [APP_NAME](LINK) - DESCRIPTION. Where:

• The description starts with a capital and ends with a full stop (period).
• The description is short and concise. No redundant information like "CLI" or "terminal" Usually the apps repository description or tag line is a good starting point.
• There is no trailing whitespace.

Style:

Open one pull request per app suggestion and title it simply Add APP_NAME. Use the provided pull request template. Failure follow this point means the PR will be closed without being looked at.

Thank you for contributing :)
