atlas.deck is a tool that turns your terminal into an interactive control panel. It shows a grid of pads, each linked to a command you want to run. You can organize, start, and watch complex tasks right from your terminal window. It is part of the Atlas Suite, designed to help automate workflows easily.
You don’t need to write code or open many windows. Instead, you press the pads to trigger commands, making your work simpler and faster.
