QuickDev

Cross-platform Rust CLI that saves and launches a project's terminal tabs and applications with one command

Source code

What it is

Every time you start on a project you open the same terminals, go to the same directories, run the same commands and launch the same apps. QuickDev removes that repetition: configure once in a per-project .quickdev.toml, then quickdev launch opens everything, from anywhere.

It runs on macOS, Linux and Windows, ships through crates.io, npm and prebuilt binaries, and is written in asynchronous Rust.
