betty

Betty tried that: https://github.com/pickhardt/betty

Do not mean to discourage but the commit messages drove me nuts: https://github.com/sukeesh/Jarvis/commits/master Long time ago, i was using a similar thing called betty (Not sure if it is still working): https://github.com/pickhardt/betty

My suggestion is, in addition to using the videos and courses for background knowledge, to take up and work on a (non-homework) project, to truly explore the area. For eg., Betty [1] is quite an interesting project with both real-life use and practical NLP considerations, and is looking for new maintainers. (I'm not affiliated, just interested in NLP myself and have been itching to get into betty for some time.) If you like thinking about game design, there's also the option of Interactive Fiction [2], NLP-involving ones are called parser-based fictions I believe. A recent FLOSS podcast episode with folks from the IF Tech Foundation was pretty interesting and illuminating regarding this area.

Here are a few random examples of such absurdity I found in a several minute search. https://github.com/opal/opal/issues/941 https://github.com/kickstarter/rack-attack/pull/181 https://github.com/graphite-project/graphite-web/issues/1569 https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/pull/3507 https://github.com/Droogans/unmaintainable-code/pull/20 https://github.com/zendframework/zend-expressive/pull/340 https://github.com/assemble/assemble.io/issues/163 https://github.com/braydie/HowToBeAProgrammer/issues/68 https://github.com/airbnb/javascript/pull/698 https://github.com/lighthouse-labs/clock-tower/pull/87 https://github.com/smalltownheroes/bikini-girls-with-machine... https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/27430 https://github.com/ardanlabs/gotraining/issues/75 https://github.com/antirez/redis/issues/3185 https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacem

Just wanted to say thanks for making Betty[1]. It was a lot of fun using Betty a couple of years ago before the bot-hype took off. [1] https://github.com/pickhardt/betty

> complex parseable options, something that could only be parsed by a parser generator Could you elaborate on this? Do you mean user input more like natural language? I've seen a few attempts at this such as betty [1], but the reality of it is the input must still be translated into something the CLI understands, and as you might imagine it becomes difficult for more obscure options. 1. https://github.com/pickhardt/betty
