We finally decided to take the plunge this month and explore reimplementation of our command-line tool [`abra`](https://git.coopcloud). This discussion came up as we were running into more and more implementation difficulties around file format parsing and command-line input handling. We wrote `abra` in Bash when we had little to no funding and were still experimenting heavily with the design of the interface. It has served us well!

After some back & forth we decided to use [Go programming language](https://golang.org) because it helps us overcome the above limitations, and supports cross-platform portability without much fuss. We've added this [to our beta bikemap](https://pad.autonomic.zone/s/C3uuqfSCk#Command-line-tool-sustainability) and are hacking over in the [`go-abra`](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/go-abra) repository. All Golang hackers are welcome to join in :nerd: After some back & forth we went with the [Go programming language](https://golang.org) because it helps us overcome the above limitations, and supports cross-platform portability without much fuss.

This does mean that we're freezing the Bash implementation of [`abra`](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/abra) and will not be implementing any new features. We will offer support, bug fixes and keep using it for the months to come until `go-abra` is ready for use: we [just released version 10.0.1](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/abra/tags) to squash a small but important bug. We will update the `abra` `README.md` and relevant [docs.coopcloud.tech](https://docs.coopcloud.tech) references shortly.
