https://github.com/chubin/cheat.sh
Command line tool that accesses hundreds of cheat sheets. Well, way more than that: it’s got an NLP engine that allows you to ask for questions.
Unified access to the best community driven cheat sheets repositories of the world.
Let's imagine for a moment that there is such a thing as an ideal cheat sheet. What should it look like? What features should it have?
- Concise — It should only contain the things you need, and nothing else.
- Fast — It should be possible to use it instantly.
- Comprehensive — It should contain answers for every possible question.
- Universal — It should be available everywhere, anytime, without any preparations.
- Unobtrusive — It should not distract you from your main task.
- Tutoring — It should help you to learn the subject.
- Inconspicuous — It should be possible to use it completely unnoticed.
Such a thing exists! It's easy to install and there's even auto-complete.
