## What it is
taws is a terminal-based UI for browsing, observing, and managing AWS resources across 60+ services and 94+ resource types. Written in Rust, it offers multi-profile/multi-region navigation, vim-like keyboard controls, resource actions like starting or terminating EC2 instances, and JSON/YAML detail views.

## Use cases
- browse aws resources from the terminal
- manage ec2 instances without the aws console
- switch between aws profiles and regions quickly
- view lambda functions in a tui
- filter aws resources by tags
- inspect aws resource details as json or yaml

## When to choose
- you prefer keyboard-driven terminal workflows over the AWS web console
- you need to navigate many AWS services and resource types in one tool
- you want fast fuzzy filtering and pagination over large resource lists

## When to avoid
- you need full AWS management capabilities beyond the supported resource actions
- you require a graphical dashboard with charts and visualizations
- your team relies on infrastructure-as-code rather than interactive management
