## What it is
A unified cheat sheet service providing instant access to community-driven cheat sheets for 56 programming languages, DBMSes, and 1000+ UNIX/Linux commands via curl, browser, or editor. It includes a command-line client (cht.sh), editor integrations, and can be self-hosted or used offline.

## Use cases
- look up unix command examples from the terminal
- get a cheat sheet for a programming language without opening a browser
- find how to use a command quickly with curl
- integrate cheat sheet lookups into vim or vscode
- self-host a cheat sheet service with docker
- use cheat sheets offline

## When to choose
- you need fast, concise command or syntax examples while coding
- you want cheat sheet access from curl, editors, or a CLI
- you prefer community-driven answers over full documentation
- you want offline or self-hosted cheat sheet access

## When to avoid
- you need full official documentation or tutorials
- you need deeply detailed API references
- you want interactive learning courses rather than quick reference

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: stable
- function: documentation, search-engine, http-server, cli, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, documentation, programming-languages
- platform: cli, self-hosted, cross-platform, python
