#!/usr/bin/env zx

await $`cat package.json | grep name`

const branch = await $`git branch --show-current`
await $`dep deploy --branch=${branch}`

await Promise.all([
  $`sleep 1; echo 1`,

])

const name = 'foo bar'
await $`mkdir /tmp/${name}`
```

Bash is great, but when it comes to writing more complex scripts,
many people prefer a more convenient programming language.
JavaScript is a perfect choice, but the Node.js standard library
requires additional hassle before using. No compromise, take the best of both. The `zx` package provides
useful cross-platform wrappers around `child_process`, escapes arguments and
gives sensible defaults.
