For local dev work I often need to run multiple local tools/servers in parallel. In a recent project I learned about Foreman and it’s Procfile format. There is a whole suite of runners for this format, but I found all of them lacking in some way or another. Don’t want Ruby? Don’t want NPM in a NPM-free project? And worst of all, “What was the command again? goreman run?”.

Go makes it quite easy to spin up and manage a couple of processes so I created proc.

Similar to how you process a Makefile by running make, with proc you can run your Procfile.
