## Project history and usage

treemd is a terminal Markdown navigator that combines a tree view, document viewing, and scriptable CLI output.

### Project history

The official GitHub repository was created in November 2025. The README describes a dual CLI/TUI design for navigating Markdown structure, following links, searching documents, and extracting elements with a jq-like query language.

### Adoption history

The official README documents Cargo, Homebrew, and pkgin installation, while source_facts.package-manager records Homebrew, Nix, and pacman availability. This reflects early distribution across Rust and several Unix package ecosystems.

### How it is used

Users open a Markdown file or directory with `treemd`, navigate headings and links interactively, list document structure with `-l`, or query elements with `-q`; settings and custom keybindings live in the documented TOML config file.

### Why package nerds care

treemd packages a Markdown reader, structural navigator, and query-oriented CLI in one Rust binary, making it useful both as an interactive terminal tool and in text-processing workflows.

### Timeline

- 2025-11-08: Official GitHub repository created.
- Current: Official README documents Cargo, Homebrew, and pkgin installation.
- 2026: source_facts.package-manager records Homebrew, Nix, and pacman packages.

### Related projects

- Rust and Cargo provide the upstream build and installation ecosystem.
- jq inspires the query-language model described by the official README.
