Tealdeer is a very fast Rust implementation of the tldr client, showing simplified, example-based community man pages for CLI commands. It caches pages locally so it works fully offline except for cache updates.

Use cases

  • show usage examples for a cli command quickly
  • offline alternative to man pages
  • look up command flags without reading full man page
  • cache tldr pages locally
  • faster tldr client

When to choose

  • you want the fastest tldr client with offline caching
  • you prefer example-based help over verbose man pages
  • you need a cross-platform static binary

When to avoid

  • you need full detailed man page documentation
  • you need a client for a non-tldr help format
