bullshcript-cli

1.0.8 verified Fri May 01 auth: no javascript deprecated

A satirical JavaScript transpiler that renames files from .bullsh to .js without actual transformation. Version 1.0.8, no active development or release cadence. Created as a joke for the Banter VR community, it intentionally does nothing beyond file renaming. Not intended for serious use; alternatives like Babel or TypeScript are recommended for actual transpilation.

Quickstart

Demonstrates the entire 'transpilation' process: reads a .bullsh file, passes it through the package (which returns the input unchanged), and writes to .js.

import { transpile } from 'bullshcript-cli';
import fs from 'fs';

const input = fs.readFileSync('example.bullsh', 'utf8');
const output = transpile(input);
fs.writeFileSync('example.js', output);
console.log('Transpiled successfully (just copied input).');
