## What it is
storm is a Python command line tool for managing SSH connections by adding, editing, deleting, listing, and searching entries in your SSH config file. It also supports command aliases, custom SSH directives, and can be used as a Python library or via optional web and desktop UIs.

## Use cases
- manage ssh config entries from the command line
- add a new ssh host alias quickly
- search and list my ssh connections
- edit ssh config without manual file editing
- create command aliases for ssh hosts
- manage ssh hosts with a web ui

## When to choose
- you frequently add, edit, or delete hosts in ~/.ssh/config
- you want searchable, scriptable SSH connection management
- you want command aliases for your SSH hosts

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained software with recent releases
- you only need a one-off ssh connection and can edit config manually
- you need a GUI-first SSH client like Termius
