I made a script to clean up imports and automate some stuff. Isn't this a decent idea?

So, I've created this (not done/perfect but works for most components): https://github.com/remcostoeten/shadcn-ui-lazymans-auto-importer

It's a JS + Shell script that allows you to type ./shellscript.sh component name, which then does the equivalent of bunx --bun shadcn-ui@latest add component name. Besides that, it also creates a ui-imports.tsx file which imports the downloaded component and exports it, allowing you to do this in any component.

import { Input, Progress, NavigationMenu, yadadada } from '@/components/ui/ui-imports';

In my projects where I've started using it, it cleans up components since it prevents having a huge list of UI imports. Nothing special, but in my opinion, a good addition.

• It works as expected for most components but does not have support for components that have multiple exports e.g. it exports Tooltip but not TooltipProvider
