## What it is
GCSF is a FUSE-based virtual filesystem that mounts a Google Drive account locally so it can be used like a regular disk partition. It is written in Rust and distributed as a CLI application via cargo.

## Use cases
- mount google drive as a local folder
- access google drive files from the terminal
- use google drive like a regular disk partition
- browse and edit drive files with local applications
- sync-free read/write access to google drive on linux

## When to choose
- you want your Google Drive files accessible through the normal filesystem on Linux or macOS
- you prefer working with cloud files using standard shell commands and desktop apps
- you want a lightweight Rust tool installable via cargo

## When to avoid
- you are on Windows, which is not supported
- you need full offline sync or selective background syncing like the official Drive client
- you need a GUI for managing your Drive account
