# Project Nexus

A hub for all your programming projects.

```

npm i project-nexus -g

project-nexus

```

It has dark styles too. Yes, it's cross platform.


You declare all your scripts in your `package.json`,

in a machine-readable format,

but all you directly gain from this

usually amounts to not having to remember many commands

to start all your projects.

You just type `npm start`, `npm run prepublish`, etc.

– short and sweet commands –

but it doesn't have to stop there!

Project Nexus gives you a visual interface

for launching all your projects.

If a project has a `package.json` file,

it'll give you a button to `npm start`/stop the project.

It opens a [terminal](https://github.com/chjj/term.js) to show process output.

The npm launcher also has a context menu,

where you can run specific scripts.

If there's an `index.html`, it'll give you a button to open it.

It'll start a [live-server](https://github.com/tapio/live-server) for development.

If there's a `manifest.json`, it'll give you a button to launch a [chrome app](https://developer.chrome.com/apps/about_apps).

Clicking it again will restart the app.

I'm very open to extending it with different launchers,

and I plan on extracting the existing launchers into npm packages.

There's also a button on Node.js processes to open up a [debugger](https://github.com/node-inspector/node-inspector).

Previously this was so complicated that I've never used it before. Now it's a button.

_Built with [nw.js](http://nwjs.io/)_

## Dev

- fork [project-nexus](https://github.com/1j01/project-nexus)

- `npm link`

- `project-nexus`

It'll live reload with [nw-dev](https://www.npmjs.com/package/nw-dev/)
