Ever tried Gaming on a Linux system? Even though Linux exists since more than 30 years now, it is still hard to play a Game on it. Most Games don’t even publish a release for Linux. That’s why projects like Wine exist (Wine provides a compatibility layer so that Linux Users can play Windows Games)

Why is it like that?

For that, we need to understand how a Game works and how a Game Developer thinks. Game Developer need to earn money so that they can buy e.g. food. For that, targeting a big Group of Customers is important.

I wrote bash scripts for several years now. You can find old bash scripts of mine on GitHub but most of them aren’t maintained anymore - and I have a reason for that.

But before I give you my reasons for not using many bash scripts anymore, lets look at the benefits of bash:

• It super easy and you basically already can it if you write Linux / BSD commands
• There are frameworks out now which give you advanced features like testing
• It works out of the box on nearly every Linux / BSD system

Okay - sounds good - so what’s my problem?
