In addition to the interactive mode, where the user types one command at a time, with immediate execution and feedback, Bash (like many other shells) also has the ability to run an entire script of commands, known as a "Bash shell script" (or "Bash script" or "shell script" or just "script").
In effect, a Bash shell script is a computer program written in the Bash programming language.
A script might contain just a very simple list of commands — or even just a single command — or it might contain functions, loops, conditional constructs, and all the other hallmarks of imperative programming.
They are particularly suited to all of these because they allow complexity without requiring it: if a script just needs to run two external programs, then it can be a two-line script, and if it needs all the power and decision-making ability of a Turing-complete imperative programming language, then it can have that as well.
Shell scripts can be called from the interactive command-line described above; or, they can be called from other parts of the system.
Bash is a "Unix shell": a command-line interface for interacting with the operating system.
Shell scripts are commonly used for many system administration tasks, such as performing disk backups, evaluating system logs, and so on.
One script might be set to run when the system boots up; another might be set to run every weekday at 2:30 AM; another might run whenever a user logs into the system.
Programming language is a perfect tool for studying, complex mathematical calculation, entertainment and many other useful tasks.
It was intended as a free-software alternative to the Bourne shell (in fact, its name is an acronym for "Bourne-again shell"), and it incorporates all features of that shell, as well as new features such as integer arithmetic and in-process regular expressions.

The application is especially useful for learning the Bash programming language.
It is widely available, being the default shell on many GNU/Linux distributions and on Mac OS X; and ports exist for many other systems.

I use vscode to write bash scripts and had an idea for one so I searched BashProgrammingLanguage Store and saw this , it looks like a passable editor with highlight which is cool , but I really can’t give any more feedback as BashProgrammingLanguage doesn’t really let you try full functionality ? Maybe give people a few freebies ? Or maybe put ads and make the “unlimited compiles an option ? People are way less likely to buy something they can’t put through its paces or twice in.
I work in cars sales , butts on seats and feet on pedals , sell metal.

BashProgrammingLanguage is all around good, though, I would like to be able to test the build/compile feature before I commit money to BashProgrammingLanguage . I understand the dev needs money to support BashProgrammingLanguage , but, it is difficult for me to put money into something that may not work for me. Second, BashProgrammingLanguage needs cloud support, allow me to store my files in the cloud, and access them across devices. Don’t always have my tablet on me, and it would be useful to access my scripts from my phone.

You have 1 (ONE) free compilation, which I assume the average person will use immediately upon opening BashProgrammingLanguage to run the sample script, and he will only discover later that he has 0 left. This is what happened to me. Furthermore, this is not a bash interpreter. There’s no shell, it’s a text editor that can send your script to a server that has a bash runner. This is evidenced by the fact that it needs internet to run. Very slimy.
Edit: more things. I see that another reviewer had the same experience about the trial. The dev responded, “just buy unlimited compilations.” Well dimitry, just mark BashProgrammingLanguage as $2.99 like it actually is!!
By Clutch Draggin'
This lets you run a BASH script, once, and then you have to pay $2.99. There’s no way to even begin to see what it can do, because it’s a one trick pony, until you pay up. Perhaps it’s ok for testing shell scripts, but there doesn’t seem to be any real BASH capabilities, from what I can tell. It’s just a way to run some scripts, but without access to anything except a script editor and a “compiler”, there’s not much use in having it.
By urkelpants
Doesn't let you even run a script once without paying. Five free runs minimum (10 or 20 would be better) would be reasonable.
Offering a "free" app that does nothing unless you pay is, I'm sorry to say, deceptive.
Loosen up a bit, developer. I appreciate that a ton of work goes into app development. But I'd rather be asked to pay to download at all or be given a chance to try BashProgrammingLanguage 's functionality within reason before paying.
[EDIT: it runs interpretation through a remote server--so it can't be used offline, and isn't really an emulator? No.]
By Kapple jacks
It's alright if you know nothing about bash but the killer for me YOU HAVE A LIMIT ON YOUR COMPILATIONS PER DAY!! Not worth the $2
By joshs474
Claims to be a free app, but you have to pay for compilations. You get ONE compilation, who most will use to run the default script. Make it a 2.99 app, and get unlimited compilations
By Jon Red
Not even a little bit. It’s $3. Free to install but $3 if you want to use it.
The bait and switch turned me off to BashProgrammingLanguage completely.
By formerlysojeff
I downloaded BashProgrammingLanguage because the screenshots looked very impressive and I thought it would be interesting to experiment with scripting. But when I launched BashProgrammingLanguage for the first time it had the Hello World script already there and I executed it to see how the interface worked. Unfortunately you apparently only get one execution before you have to pay, so I'd blown my trial within the first 10 seconds. If an app is going to be "free" even with in-app purchases, it needs to give you enough usage to decide if it's worth purchasing in the first place. In my case, it was reason enough to uninstall BashProgrammingLanguage and go back to BashProgrammingLanguage Store for something else.

It is great for testing out any scripts you are working on this is amazing I have been looking for an app like this for ever thank you I us Python2IDE and Linux it’s great for using your scripts don’t worry about the money Its surprising that you get a great app like this for such a low price so I’m I’m saying is this is a must get for any script writer web developer just someone who enjoys tinkering with web programming

Dmitri is entitled to some compensation for all of the hard work and hours he put into this so called free app. I agree that he needs to give 5-10 free compilations, if only to get the customer hooked on using it otherwise people walk away. This is a good learning tool and I came here to test out some concepts while commuting to the office. But if I don’t get any value first, I’m not forking over any money to find out later if I will be “nickeled and dimed” or not.

I don’t understand the negative comments at all! The developer could have easily asked $4.99 on the AppStore and I would have gladly paid for the reference alone (I’m learning).
BashProgrammingLanguage works perfectly for me and more.
By The Impeccable Reviewer
I got BashProgrammingLanguage and the example script worked. Therefore, I thought that BashProgrammingLanguage actually worked and that it was really good. After I bought the $2.99 subscription and edited the script, the script wouldn’t compile and run. The output stated that I needed to check my internet connection but there was NOTHING wrong with my internet connection! My program would NOT compile and it would NOT run. DO NOT DOWNLOAD BashProgrammingLanguage!!! IT IS A TOTAL SCAM!
By Lusid1
It's a text editor. There are buttons to run your scripts but without paying an IAP there is no way to tell if it will actually work.
It appears that by paying some money you could execute your script on a remote server somewhere and observe the output, but if you have access to the internet you might as well ssh into something that can actually run bash.
By Domokunhunter
I know it isn't a lot of money but Dmitri should have put more effort into this. Despite his useless tech support you can't figure out how to use it offline. Apple should remove it from BashProgrammingLanguage Store.
Also if anyone knows of a way to have Bash command line features running in an app like this I would buy it. Unless Dmitri wrote it of course.

It's one where I refer to my iOS device with BashProgrammingLanguage before I dig around on the web or search my Mac.
By OptimumNutrition
BashProgrammingLanguage isn't actually free. You get ONE free compilation and then you have to pay. If you don't pay, BashProgrammingLanguage is basically just a text editor. 1 star because this is just deceitful practices. I'll stick to sshing into a Linux machine and using that for any development work.
By Kingk0ng1
A so-so app. I didn't notice until after buying it that it is online only. Kind of a disappointment. It is also very slow to run scripts.
By Zelah Hutchinson
I am writing a compiler that targets many languages and BashProgrammingLanguage is ideal for my purposes. Keep up the good work!
By ScotiaSean
My online complain is that you have to be online to compile.
