We've all been there...you implement a project, get towards the end, and realize that there's no time to build out your automation. As a result, you throw together some simple scripts to get by until a later point in time. You realize that some automation requires utilities to be downloaded and installed to your server. Unfortunately, IT won't let you install 3rd party software on servers. Then you try to implement complex automation and need to generate an excel file, only to find out that most ways require workarounds or for Excel to be installed on your server (which no one wants). After all that, you realize that you want some email notifications for your automation, only to find out that emails can only be sent from the enterprise scheduling tool and you have limited control over what is sent and to which recipients.
Is this you? Don't you wish there was a better way? Unfortunately, this happens more often than it should. That's why we are really excited to announce the release of RoboArchitect, a free and open-source commandline tool to ease the process of automating your enterprise tools. It is cross-platform (Windows, Linux, Mac), portable (requiring no installation), and requires 0 dependencies!
Over the coming days, we will be releasing tutorials and detailed use cases for each of the following features, so stay tuned and be sure to follow us!
