Doc: bash-cli

This project provides a framework for creating Bash command-line interfaces (CLIs). It leverages a convention-based directory structure (app/) where executable files represent commands and subcommands. Core functionalities include command dispatching based on arguments, automatic help generation derived from .help/.usage metadata files alongside commands, integrated bash completion, and scripts for CLI installation/uninstallation.
