What is a .sh file?
A shell script (.sh) is a plain-text program for a Unix shell such as bash — a sequence of commands with variables, conditionals, loops, functions, and pipelines. Scripts start with a shebang line (like #!/usr/bin/env bash) and are used for automation, builds, and system administration.
How to use this file
Use an example .sh file to test syntax highlighters, shell linters (ShellCheck), formatters (shfmt), and parser or language-detection tooling. It uses LF line endings so it runs correctly on Unix.
