One that I could think of is that you're using a system with strict permissions so you can't install or use either of them.

And after looking at how cheat.sh works I wouldn't use a tool that requires me to curl everything. Some may like to use it, but I prefer not to.




Honestly, it's more work to use the curl command and for some examples I've tried with cheat.sh I didn't get any answer, which then costs me even more time to look up the actual answer.

Your tool tells me from the start, what I can get and what I can't get. So I go on the site, write down the language/framework/whatever and get an answer. Better UX and to be honest, way better and modern UI.


Cheat (not Cheat.sh) doesn't require any admin permissions to install (with homebrew at least) https://github.com/chrisallenlane/cheat
