proc simplifies process management with intuitive commands that reduce complexity. Tired of juggling multiple commands to check and manage processes? With proc, commands have clear meanings and provide results swiftly. Whether finding processes by port or killing tasks, streamline your workflow with this easy-to-use CLI tool.

proc is a user-friendly command-line tool designed specifically for efficient process management. It simplifies the often complex and cryptic command sequences that developers typically face when managing system processes.

Key Features

Intuitive Commands

With proc, common tasks become straightforward and intuitive:

# Check which process is using port 3000
