eye-candy-cli

Various eye-candy gadgets for your Node.js command-line interface.

About

eye-candy-cli is a set of promisified tools that make your Node.js CLI look pretty and funny.

This project is an aggregation of many other modules. All the credits of what you'll get on your CLI have to go to the creators of those modules. See in the dependencies in package.json for more info about those modules. The idea behind this aggregation is that some of the tools may be mixed together for even better fun! See the demos folder for examples and insights about mixing the tools together.

Beyond the aggregation of those modules, most of them are made available with Promises.
