I wanted a simple language to build CLI applications, anything but Bash. Why not Bash? Because it's only good for small, maintainable scripts with minimal external dependencies beyond what GNU/Linux offers by default. Managing anything more complex than that is a real pain. The real struggle begins when you have to handle arrays, JSON data, and similar tasks. Bash is great for automation scripts, but not ideal for building full CLI applications. Sure, no one is stopping you from making a CLI or TUI app with Bash, but good luck mate, I'll pass on that!
