Re:CLI user experience case study by CableNinja on Saturday January 13, 2024 @09:15AM (#38980085)
Ive sort of managed to implement something to this effect in python, and from another comment made me consider yanking it out to its own library.

I made a process where args are now in a toml file, with some various data for different operations, like whether its available in the CLI or API library, its arg flags, help text required value type, etc. From that, i can generate argparse args, documentation, code for other things, etc. Right now im generating args, docs, and a js code block from the same structure.

Heres the toml file: https://gitlab.com/accidentallythecable-public/prover-suite/...

And some docs that were generated from that: https://gitlab.com/accidentallythecable-public/prover-suite/...

Maybe it will give you some ideas on yours
