Mancy For Mac

Programming language shells can prove to be very useful whenever you need to experiment with commands without wasting time compiling your project time and time again.

Mancy is a macOS utility that provides quick access to a user-friendly interactive environment that can evaluate JavaScripts commands in real time.

The Mancy JavaScript REPL comes with a well-organized user interface that enables you to quickly input your commands and automatically evaluates and displays the results as soon as you press the return button.

Moreover, Mancy packs an auto suggestion feature that helps you find the correct commands a lot faster. The utility integrates syntax highlighting, which means that you get to easily follow the code lines.

Other user oriented additions include the possibility to switch between dark and light interface themes, or to open more than one window and work on multiple expressions concomitantly. Note that Mancy also gives you the possibility to input multiline commands.

Mancy will display in the output area all the commands results, but you have the option to either unfold or fold an output, or just remove it altogether. Since you can export the commands history, keeping the output clean is a good idea. Naturally, you can also import command history files.

The utility provides a separate console window for displaying async logs, and you will also get console logs notifications. Also worth mentioning is the fact that Mancy enables you to work in different REPL modes (magic, sloppy, or strict).

To conclude, Mancy is a Read-eval-print loop (REPL) application developed for JavaScript that enables you to experiment with various commands and view the output results in real time, without having to compile the project.
