Clients

The content of tldr pages is openly available under the permissive MIT License. It can be accessed directly by downloading the contents of this repository (there's a regularly updated archive available here), visiting the command pages individually on github.com — for example, here's the page for the tar command — or downloading the PDF version.

For a more convenient access, though, several dedicated client applications have been developed for different platforms:

Console clients

The original client

The Node.js client was the client that was originally bundled with the tldr-pages project. It has since been moved to a separate repository but remains actively supported by the maintainers of the tldr-pages project. It is available on NPM and can be installed by running npm install -g tldr.
