There are thousands of command-line tools out there, and most lists you’ll find are stale link dumps — forty names, zero explanations, no idea what any of them actually do. This is the opposite. Every page here is a short tutorial: what the tool does, why it beats the thing you’re doing now, an install one-liner, and real commands you can run the moment you finish reading. No signup, no newsletter wall, no “10x your workflow” nonsense.
The library covers the whole spread: famous-but-underused tools like ripgrep and fzf, obscure-but-awesome stuff you’ve never heard of, one-liners for curl, awk, find, and jq, config tricks for tmux, ssh, and herdr, and the occasional shell trick that’s older than your career but still earns its keep. New entries land constantly — the mission is simple: find things that are genuinely useful in a terminal, document them honestly, including their limits, and keep the whole thing free and readable.
