A sample CLI tool made in V that prints geometric shapes to the screen.
👉 Accompanying blog posts:
This project is meant to be a demonstration showcasing how easy it is to make a good CLI application with V. There is also an example to how to effectively structure a V project with modules and conduct unit tests.
Instructions for installing the V language can be found here. For a brief introduction to V, refer the article: Getting Started with V.
Make sure to do v up to download and update to the latest version of V.
You can use v run . [OPTIONS] to run the tool while
developing it. If you want a production build, you can use v -prod ., which will generate a binary file geo (or geo.exe on Windows) at the root of the repository.
To get started, try ./geo --help. It will print the
following usage guide:
geo 0.2.x
