What is SnabbGET?

A video of the shell:

^{Made with Asciinema}

SnabbGET is a 'guified' terminal built with love ❤ for all beginners learning how to use a terminal.

The idea of creating this kind of terminal came out because we tought that it's pretty easy to be confused using a terminal, as a beginner. This terminal makes everything easier with an user interface! We will do our best to do the most beginner-friendly & easy to use terminal.

We'll focus on OS such as Windows and Linux. No MacOS for the moment, sorry :(

You can use the SnabbGET shell or the chatbox. Same features.

Compiling

Compiling the terminal edition (CLI):

Tools required

• Version of C++ used: C++17;
• make (or nmake on Visual Studio) or Execute the Make.* file;
• A C++ compiler (lld almost required on Windows: ld take some hours vs 3s for lld);
• Python interpreter on Windows, recommended on Linux.

First use

Use this command to compile the lbraries:

make libs

Compile

The Shell:

make
./output # .exe

The chatbox:

make chatbox
./output_chatbox # .exe

Contribute

If you want to change something, you must recompile the file:

• File in cmd? <path/to/file>.
• utils.cpp? compile_utils.
• utils.hpp, shell.hpp or errors.hpp? you can recompile all. Just wite make.
• shell.cpp, errors.cpp, reader.cpp or cli.cpp? compile_shell.
• main.cpp? compile_main.
• chatbox.cpp? compile_chatbox.
• You created a file, and you won't modify the Makefile? <path/to/file>

make # <your command here>

More informaitons about the GUI version will be given soon.
