@editorialbot reject

@abocchieri — Thanks for your patience. The JOSS editorial board has decided that, given the small size and scope, this submission does not reach the bar for "substantial scholarly effort" as defined by the journal. This is not a judgement of the scientific merit of the software, just an application of JOSS's policy.

One possible alternative to JOSS is to follow GitHub's guide on how to create a permanent archive and DOI for your software. This DOI can then be used by others to cite your work.
