bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://rife2.com/bld/create.sh)"
To create a project and you're set

in reply to Geert Bevin • • •@sormuras curl|bash is easy, but it doesn’t meet the criterial for boorstrappable/reproducible builds, see: https://reproducible-builds.org/
But something this lightweight is hopefully easy to bootstrap 🤞

in reply to Geert Bevin • • •@sormuras We would need to download a source tarball (verified with Sha256) of the `bld` project and then build `bld` without using any binaries. We wouldn't want to use `bld` to build itself (unless there was a way to first build an intermediate `bld` using JDK 17 only or something like that.)
This is about avoiding the dangers described by Ken Thompson in “Reflections on Trusting Trust”
