## What it is
A terminal user interface (TUI) application written in Rust for managing systemd services. It lets users view logs, list services, inspect properties, edit unit files, and control service lifecycle (start, stop, restart, mask, enable, etc.) via the D-Bus API.

## Use cases
- manage systemd services from the terminal
- view systemd service logs in a TUI
- start stop restart systemd units interactively
- edit systemd unit files with a terminal app
- list running services on a Linux server
- mask and unmask systemd services
- switch between system and user systemd units

## When to choose
- you administer Linux servers over SSH and want a visual terminal tool for systemd
- you prefer a TUI over memorizing systemctl commands
- you need to browse logs, properties, and unit files in one interface
- you want Vim-like keybindings for service management

## When to avoid
- you are on a non-systemd Linux distribution or non-Linux OS
- you need headless scripting or automation (use systemctl directly)
- you prefer a GUI desktop service manager
