A Bash function that runs shell tasks in parallel with dependency ordering and pretty terminal output. It is a single-file shell library sourced into scripts.

Use cases

  • run shell tasks in parallel
  • run bash commands concurrently with pretty output
  • define task dependencies in bash scripts
  • run tasks sequentially or in stages from the terminal
  • parallelize build or deployment steps in shell

When to choose

  • you want parallel task execution in pure Bash with no dependencies
  • you need simple dependency ordering between shell tasks
  • you want readable status output for long-running shell jobs

When to avoid

  • you need a full workflow engine with retries, scheduling, or distributed execution
  • your tasks are in Python or another language with better-native parallelism
  • you need Windows support
