## What it is
termscp is a feature-rich terminal UI (TUI) file transfer client and dual-pane file explorer supporting SCP, SFTP, FTP/FTPS, S3, SMB, WebDAV, and Kubernetes. Written in Rust, it lets users browse, upload, download, edit, and sync files between local and remote hosts entirely from the keyboard.

## Use cases
- transfer files to a remote server over sftp from the terminal
- winscp alternative for linux and mac
- browse and edit files on a remote host with a tui
- upload files to aws s3 from the command line
- manage files on a kubernetes pod
- connect to webdav or smb shares from terminal
- keep local files synced with a remote host

## When to choose
- you need a keyboard-driven, multi-protocol file transfer tool in the terminal
- you want a WinSCP-like experience on Linux, macOS, or BSD
- you need bookmarks, SSH key auth, and OS key-vault password storage
- you want one tool covering SFTP, SCP, FTP, S3, SMB, WebDAV, and Kubernetes

## When to avoid
- you need a GUI file transfer client
- you only need simple scripted transfers where scp/rsync or aws cli suffice
- you require protocols outside its supported set
