|

The *cmdkit* library implements a few common patterns needed by well-formed command-line
applications in Python. It only touches a few concepts but it implements them well.
The idea is to reduce the boilerplate needed to get a full featured CLI off the ground.
Applications developed using *cmdkit* are easy to implement, easy to maintain, and easy to
understand.

|

Installation
------------

*CmdKit* is tested on Python 3.7+ for `Windows`, `macOS`, and `Linux`, and can be installed
from the `Python Package Index` using `Pip`.

::

    $ pip install cmdkit

Contributions are welcome in the form of suggestions for additional features, pull requests with
new features or bug fixes, etc. If you find bugs or have questions, open an *Issue* here. If and
when the project grows, a code of conduct will be provided along side a more comprehensive set of
guidelines for contributing; until then, just be nice.
