mprocs runs multiple commands in parallel

mprocs runs multiple commands in parallel and shows output of each command separately.

When you work on a project you very often need the same list of commands to be running. For example: webpack serve, jest --watch, node src/server.js. With mprocs you can list these command in mprocs.yaml and run all of them by running mprocs. Then you can switch between outputs of running commands and interact with them.

It is similar to concurrently but mprocs shows output of each command separately and allows to interact with processes (you can even work in vim inside mprocs).

mprocs is meant to make it easier to run specific commands that you end up running repeatedly, such as compilers and test runners. This is in contrast with tmux, which is usually used to run much more long-lived processes – usually a shell – in each window/pane. Another difference is that tmux runs a server and a client, which allows the client to detach and reattach later, keeping the processes running. mprocs is meant more for finite lifetime processes that you keep re-running, but when mprocs ends, so do the processes it is running within its windows.
