A simple Bourne-like shell, compatible with Wasm. Written in Go.

Getting started

Install like any other go library:

go install github.com/hack-pad/hush/cmd/hush@latest

Alternatively, import hush in your own projects:

package main

import (
    "os"
    "github.com/hack-pad/hush"
)

func main() {
    exitCode := hush.Run()
    os.Exit(exitCode)
}

Wasm compatibility

Today, Go's Web Assembly support does not include running processes. To make this possible, Hush is built with hackpad's go fork. The fork contains patches that spawn and manage processes using Node.js's APIs, similar to the Node.js file system API used upstream.
