## What it is
Trippy is a network diagnostic tool that combines traceroute and ping functionality to help analyze networking issues. It offers a highly customizable terminal UI with ICMP/UDP/TCP tracing over IPv4/IPv6, reverse DNS and ASN lookups, GeoIp visualization, and charts and statistics.

## Use cases
- trace the network route to a host and measure latency per hop
- diagnose where packets are being dropped or delayed in a network path
- monitor route stability and jitter over time like mtr
- look up reverse DNS and ASN information for each hop
- visualize hop GeoIp locations on a world map
- trace with TCP or UDP probes when ICMP is blocked
- analyze ECMP load-balancing paths with dublin or paris strategies

## When to choose
- you need a modern, actively maintained alternative to mtr or traceroute with a rich TUI
- you want cross-platform support on Linux, macOS, Windows, and BSD
- you need detailed per-hop statistics, ASN/GeoIp lookups, and customizable tracing protocols
- you prefer a single self-contained binary installable from most package managers

## When to avoid
- you only need a one-shot traceroute or ping without a TUI and want a minimal tool
- you need a GUI-based network diagnostic tool
- you require unprivileged operation without any elevated privileges setup effort
