Projektgeschichte

Network Doctor was developed as a Go-based, cross-platform troubleshooting TUI. Its design focuses on locating the failing network layer and presenting evidence and suggested fixes rather than exposing only raw output from individual diagnostic commands.

Adoptionsgeschichte

The project supplies binaries or packages for Linux, macOS, and Windows, including Homebrew, Winget, Scoop, Fedora COPR, and release artifacts. The same engine supports interactive diagnosis, watch mode, JSON output, and stable exit codes for automation.

Wie es verwendet wird

Running `netdoc` without a target checks local connectivity, egress, proxy, public DNS, and Wi-Fi metadata. Supplying a hostname or service performs layered diagnosis; `--watch` observes intermittent faults, while `--json` produces machine-readable reports.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Network Doctor consolidates tools commonly invoked separately—such as interface inspection, DNS lookup, TCP connection testing, TLS inspection, and HTTP probing—into a layered diagnosis. Package users gain one cross-platform binary that can explain failures interactively or emit structured reports.
