Hi, what is the current status of this project?

milesj commented 5 years ago

@DanielRuf It's a bit dead atm. There's a few community members working on upgrades/forks, but not so much in the main repo.

hongaar commented 5 years ago

To date, I have not been able to find a real alternative. https://github.com/oclif/oclif looks pretty interesting but it lacks the interactive prompt.

Are there any active forks/branches? Would love to get involved, however not sure where to start...

milesj commented 5 years ago

@hongaar I mostly use oclif and yargs these days, but they are more just basic CLIs.

I believe @ore444 is working on a fork. https://github.com/dthree/vorpal/pull/328

hongaar commented 5 years ago

Quick update: there's an effort over at https://github.com/vorpaljs-reforged to reforge vorpal by first porting it to TypeScript, update dependencies and maybe fix some bugs in the process.

There's also a Slack community for further discussion about this, feel free to join!

I use terminal-kit these days, which works very well and is actively maintained.

⚠ Shameless plug warning

I've created a new project based on the Vorpal API in TypeScript which offers much of the same functionality: https://github.com/hongaar/bandersnatch.

Don't forget to invite additional contributors and move it to some org to increase the bus-factor and that more people can maintain it ;-)
