FAQ
Why GoAccess?
The main idea behind GoAccess is being able to quickly analyze and view web server statistics in real time without having to generate an HTML report. Although it is possible to generate an HTML report, by default it outputs to a terminal.
You can see it more as a monitor command tool than anything else.
