# Equiv
#### ❗️ THIS PROJECT IS IN HARD DEVELOPMENT AND BIG CHANGES MAY HAPPEN
#### (PLEASE GIVE YOUR IDEAS TO MAKE IT BETTER)
It finds equivalents of the things.
The programming world grows so fast. **Loads of packages are being created** day by
day. And there are **so many programming laguages** around. When the developers try
new languages, **they need to reuse their experience**.
`equiv` allows you to use your experience in all programming languages. And **it
makes you adopt a new language faster**.
Let's say you are a **Rubyist** who wants to develop **a web application with Python**.
Since you are a Ruby user, you already know *Sinatra*, but don't know the Python world.
Just use `equiv` and it will find you the **Python equivalent of Sinatra**.
```
equiv sinatra of python
```
It finds the equivalent:
```
ruby/sinatra is a micro web framework
equivalent in python is are:
- flask
> pip install flask
```
And also you can just use the concepts like `micro_web_framework`
```
equiv micro_web_framework of ruby
```
It finds the best match.
```
equivalent in ruby are:
- sinatra
> gem install sinatra
```
## Numbers
#### We highly need contributions to increase numbers of registered libraries!

## Installation
## OS X
You can install `equiv` using [Homebrew](http://brew.sh).
```
brew tap f/equiv
brew install equiv
# Enable Autocompletion
eval "$(equiv --completion)"
```
## Usage
It's super simple...
```
equiv [the concept] of [the language]
equiv [the language]/[the library] of [the language]
```
```
$ equiv http_client of python
equivalent in python are:
- requests
> pip install requests
```
```
$ equiv python/requests of node
python/requests is a http client
equivalent in node are:
- request
> npm install request --save
```
You don't have to say programming language.
```
$ equiv sinatra of crystal
ruby/sinatra is a micro web framework
equivalent in crystal are:
- kemal
> Please add `sdogruyol/kemal` to `shards.yml`
```
## Help Us
Please extend the library from `src/data/[language].cr` file.

## Roadmap
- Add **more and more** languages and libraries
- Data is built into the binary, it may be a remote service or another repo which
can be updated with a command like `equiv update`. Now the binary has to be updated
when registry updated.
