## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

desk is a lightweight workspace manager for shells. It associates a named project context with a shell script, then starts a shell where that context has been loaded.

### Projektgeschichte

desk's first GitHub release was v0.1.0 in October 2015. The README frames it as deliberately simple: a shell script that sources another shell script in a new shell, but with enough structure to document aliases, functions, environment variables, and project directories.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The project documented Homebrew installation, direct curl installation, git installation, shell completions for bash, zsh, and fish, and zsh plugin-manager integration through tools such as oh-my-zsh, Antigen, and zgen. That made it easy to adopt in dotfile-heavy developer environments.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Users create deskfiles under ~/.desk/desks or add a Deskfile to a project directory, then run desk commands to activate, list, edit, or run commands inside those environments. Deskfiles are normal shell scripts with comments used as descriptions and inline command documentation.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

desk is package-nerd interesting because it is intentionally small shell infrastructure: it competes more with dotfiles, aliases, and shell plugin managers than with large workspace systems, and packages as a single command with no dependency beyond bash.

### Zeitleiste

- 2015: v0.1.0 initial release.
- 2015: v0.4.0 added formatting and desk run work.
- 2016: v0.5.0 added Deskfile work and fish fixes.
- 2016: v0.6.0 changed shell startup to use exec.
