🛠️ cli - Manage your development workflows with ease

📖 About this tool

The Buddy CLI tool, known as bdy, helps you control your development pipelines directly from your computer. You no longer need to switch between your web browser and your local work environment. This application connects to your Buddy account and lets you trigger builds, check status updates, and manage project artifacts in one place. Developers use this to save time and track the health of their software projects without leaving their terminal.

💻 Requirements

To use this software on your Windows computer, you need two items installed:

1. A terminal application. Windows comes with Command Prompt or PowerShell, which work fine.
2. Node.js version 24 or newer. Node.js acts as the engine that runs this software on your computer.

You can check if you have Node.js installed by opening your Command Prompt and typing node -v. If the screen shows a number like 24.0.0 or higher, you are ready to begin. If you do not have it, visit the official Node.js website to download the installer for Windows. Run the installer and restart your computer to finish the setup.
