About
tldr pages is an open-source, community-maintained reference for command-line tools that provides concise, practical examples as an alternative to traditional man pages. It supports UNIX, Linux, macOS, SunOS, Android, and Windows commands. Users can install a client via Python or choose from many community-built clients across CLI, GUI, web, and integrations.
