Powder: Making Pow Even Easier

by PeterCooper —

Powder is a gem that makes using 37signals’ handy Pow server even easier. It turns adding a project to your Pow setup down a simple powder at the command line, powder open to load the page in your browser, and that’s it.

I shall keep waiting for Pow to be Linux-compatible…

Only thing Powder lacks is a command to restart all the servers without needing to go into the project’s directory. I’ve wrote a short bash alias to fix that (and it’s Linux-compatible, too!): http://tumblr.com/xci2knc8gq

If your looking for an easier GUI approach you can also check out a project I am working on called KaPow https://github.com/bradylove/kapow. MacRuby app that will sit in your system bar making it easier to go to your Pow powered app and add/remove apps.
