Install

npm install -g @hassan2bit/devlg

Setup (first time only)

devlg init

Point it at your local devlog project folder. Config is saved to ~/.devlog-config.json.

Usage

# Add a new entry interactively
devlg

# Show recent entries in the terminal
devlg list

# Show last 10 entries
devlg list -n 10

# Re-run setup
devlg init

How it works

devlg writes directly to data/entries.json inside your devlog project folder. After logging an entry, go to your devlog folder and push to Netlify or GitHub Pages to go live.

2. Deploy to Gihub page
