⚡ Ultimate Dev Command Shortcuts

A collection of PowerShell functions that speed up everyday development across dozens of frameworks and tools.
No more typing long commands - just short, memorable aliases for Spring Boot, Flask, FastAPI, Python, React, Next.js, MERN, CMake, Rust, Go, Docker, Django, Angular, Node, TypeScript, Terraform, Kubernetes, Ansible, Firebase, Supabase, Git, and more.

PowerShell License

✨ Features

  • 170+ ready-to-use shortcuts for the most popular developer tools.
  • Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux (PowerShell 7+ recommended).
  • Lightweight - just a single .ps1 file, no dependencies.
  • Self-documenting - type show-commands to list all shortcuts.
  • Easily extensible - add your own functions or override existing ones.

🚀 Installation

Option 1: Clone & dot-source (recommended)

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/Meetmendapara09/ultimate-dev-shortcuts.git

  2. Open your PowerShell profile:

    notepad $PROFILE

    (If $PROFILE doesn't exist yet, create it: New-Item -Path $PROFILE -ItemType File -Force)

  3. Add this line to the end of the profile file:

    # Load Ultimate Dev Shortcuts
. "C:\path\to\ultimate-dev-shortcuts\DevShortcuts.ps1"

    Adjust the path to where you cloned the repository.

  4. Reload your shell or run . $PROFILE and you're ready.

Option 2: Copy the entire script into your profile

Open your PowerShell profile (notepad $PROFILE), copy the whole content of DevShortcuts.ps1 and paste it there. Save and reload the shell.

Option 3: One‑liner for PowerShell 7+ (direct download)

Invoke-Expression (Invoke-RestMethod "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Meetmendapara09/ultimate-dev-shortcuts/main/DevShortcuts.ps1")

Use this with caution in automated environments; better to clone and inspect the script first.

🧪 Usage

Just type the shortcut instead of the full command - everything works as if you had typed the original.

  • Overwrite functions - define them after loading the script in your profile.

It's plain PowerShell, no build steps required.

🤝 Contributing

Contributions are welcome! If you've got a shortcut that makes your life easier, share it.

  1. Fork the repository.
  2. Add your function (keep the @args pattern so extra arguments pass through).
  3. Update the show-commands help text if it's a new category.
  4. Submit a pull request.

Please ensure functions are cross‑platform (avoid Windows‑only aliases, or guard them).
