I'm a developer and I think it'd be useful. I'm semi-fluent (conversational?) when it comes to CLIs, and this looks like a great way to recall stuff for less frequently used commands or edge cases.
Two reasons why I would download this but not a full on GUIs for things:
1. There's a long tail of CLI tools I use just rarely enough that I can't justify downloading a whole application for something. I just don't need to run awk or sed that often. But if you aggregate "all terminal commands I need to Google usage for", then that adds up just enough to download a helper.
2. There are contexts in which I can't use a GUI. For example, sometimes I need to SSH into a headless server and update a Git repo or do something with sed and awk on a giant pile of logs that I don't want to transfer to my local machine.
