Ask HN: Should I make this tool to open long URLs from terminal with short name?
You can read a description here
https://github.com/flipflopapp/rewq-cli/blob/master/README.md
TLDR:-
$ rewq standup
... would open a meetup-standup link... or just
$ rewq
... if its around 11-am, would open the standup link.
$ rewq notebook
... would open your jupyter notebook on GCP or show a list of URLs for all your notebooks.
Add a comment or upvote if you need something like this. I think a github gist should suffice demonstrating how to do it in shell. It should be enough to make a small: #!/bin/bash
browser.xyz url.com and then symlink it into your path or otherwise. Thanks for your advice. I have been dog-fooding myself by using https://rewq.app and its pretty useful for me. Not sure if the appeal is universal though.
