Rad

Python-like scripting language with built-in argument parsing, JSON handling, and HTTP requests for CLI scripts.

Desktopfree

Rad is a scripting language and interpreter meant to replace ad hoc Bash scripts, giving developers Python-like syntax with declarative argument parsing, JSON handling, and HTTP requests built directly into the language instead of added through libraries. Scripts are plain files run with the rad interpreter, with an editor language server for support. It's aimed at developers who write CLI automation scripts regularly.
