Obituary.js
CLI tool for generating obituaries, written in JS
Purpose
A learning exercise for me to create a CLI tool with Node.js.
A place to not be morbid about death. Read my thoughts about obituaries.
After reading a bunch of NYTimes Obituaries, I've noticed they all have the same format.
- Opening hook of how this person made an impact
- A famous moment of the recently deceased (or perhaps two or three)
- Family history - abruptly go back to talking about the very beginning
- A short chronology of big moments in the deceased life
- Family Acknowledgements - "He/She is survived by..."
- Closing words from the deceased, perhaps a quote
API
# run the "obit" command to begin the prompt of questions.
