VX - Universal Development Tool Manager

One-sentence summary: vx = prefix any dev tool command with vx → it auto-installs the tool and runs it.

vx is a universal development tool manager that automatically installs and manages development tools (Node.js, Python/uv, Go, Rust, etc.) with zero configuration.

Core Concept

Instead of requiring users to manually install tools, prefix any command with vx:

vx node --version      # Auto-installs Node.js if needed
vx uv pip install x    # Auto-installs uv if needed
vx go build .          # Auto-installs Go if needed
vx cargo build         # Auto-installs Rust if needed
vx just test           # Auto-installs just if needed
