kiss, less is more, be terse & functional, influenced a lot by devs like:
- rxi https://github.com/rxi
- jdah https://github.com/jdah
- haze https://github.com/haze
- charm.sh https://charm.sh -- absolutely love this company, makes me wanna ssh all the things
- suckless https://suckless.org -- to a certain extent, their philosophy can kind of go a bit far though
they have a neat aesthetic, short usernames, brief READMEs coupled with super useful & elegant code - i dunno it's weirdly appealing
