It is a small productivity package built around fast lookup, fuzzy filtering, tags, and direct editing from the TUI. ### Project history The public repository was created in August 2024. The README explains the motivation plainly: the author had many keybinds and aliases to remember and wanted a way to look them up in seconds. The first GitHub release, v0.1.0, was published on August 25, 2024, followed by v0.1.1 on September 10, 2024. ### Adoption history gocheat is young and lightweight, so its adoption record is correspondingly modest. It is packaged for Homebrew as brew:gocheat, appears in the input facts as also mapped to Nix, and its README documents Arch AUR installation, source builds, and go install. ### How it is used Users launch the TUI, add entries for keybindings or aliases, filter by text or tag, and edit the JSON configuration directly at ~/.config/gocheat/config.json when preferred. The README documents keyboard actions for adding, deleting, filtering, switching tag mode, showing tags, and exiting. ### Why package nerds care The package is a tidy example of the Bubble Tea-era terminal-app trend: a single Go binary wraps a personal text database with a polished TUI, then package managers distribute it like any other small CLI. Its significance is local productivity rather than ecosystem infrastructure. ### Timeline - 2024-08-21: Public GitHub repository created - 2024-08-25: v0.1.0 initial release published - 2024-09-10: v0.1.1 release published - 2024: README documents AUR, source-build, and go install workflows ### Related projects - gocheat is related by workflow to cheat-sheet and command-reference CLIs, but its interface is closer to modern Go TUIs built with Bubble Tea-style libraries. - It is adjacent to personal knowledge and keybinding helpers rather than team documentation systems. ### Sources - - - - ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
