history

Project history and usage

Tabiew is a Rust terminal UI for viewing, querying, and lightly manipulating tabular data files directly from the command line.

Project history

The README says Tabiew began as a hobby TUI project for viewing CSV data and grew through community feedback into a broader tabular-data tool with wiki documentation. GitHub repository metadata records the public repository creation in April 2024.

Adoption history

The README documents installation through a shell installer, Arch official repositories, Debian and RPM packages from GitHub releases, Homebrew core on macOS, a project tap, and Cargo. The Homebrew input additionally records Alpine, MacPorts, Nix, Arch, and Scoop packaging.

How it is used

Users invoke the tw command on one or more files. Tabiew detects CSV, TSV, Parquet, JSON, JSONL, Arrow, fixed-width, SQLite, Excel, and other formats, then provides Vim-style navigation, fuzzy search, SQL queries, filtering, sorting, multiple tabs, plotting, and themes.

Why package nerds care

Tabiew is significant as part of the modern Rust TUI/data-tool wave: a single terminal command that bridges CSV viewers, SQL-ish exploration, Parquet/Arrow-era formats, and package-manager distribution across Unix, macOS, Windows, and Cargo.
