Anytime I have the need to write a script, I write it myself. When I do this, I like to do it in Python, rather than Go.
I very rarely, if ever, “install” or run other people’s scripts. Because typically, a script is a specialized piece of code that does something specific the user was trying to do when they wrote it.
However, I do often install applications or libraries written by other people in Python. Typically, I don’t have a problem, but sometimes I run into dependency hell. But this is something different than me just writing scripts. For scripting, Python is great.
