Simplified and community-driven man pages
The TLDR pages are a community effort to simplify the beloved man pages with practical examples.

Try the live demo below, have a look at the PDF version, or follow the installation instructions.
As of now, our most mature client is the node.js one, which you can easily install from NPM:
npm install -g tldr
You can also try any of the many other TLDR clients that have sprouted from the community:
