• either you want to build an existing nmk project
• or you want to bootstrap a new one

Each nmk project provides a loadme.sh script, that can be "sourced" to bootstrap everything:

• check system requirements
• create and load a python venv
• install nmk (and potentially other project requirements)
• setup nmk completion

In other words, you can build a freshly cloned nmk project with these two commands:

$ source loadme.sh
$ nmk

Note for Windows users

If you plan to develop your project on Windows, you've probably installed git. The commands above can then be executed in git-bash terminal to create the venv.

Once this is done, if you prefer to get back to a Windows cmd chell, you can load the venv as usual:

> venv\Scripts\activate.bat

Bootstrap a new project

If you want to create a new nmk project, you can simply bootstrap it with the following commands

$ wget https://github.com/dynod/nmk/raw/main/loadme.sh
$ source loadme.sh

You'll then have to create an nmk project file. nmk project comes with following examples:

• python
