Babyshark is an open-source terminal UI (TUI) for analyzing PCAP network captures, built in Rust. It offers a flows-first approach to network inspection without requiring Wireshark knowledge. Key features include offline PCAP/PCAPng viewing, live capture via tshark, a domain-grouped traffic view, curated anomaly detectors ('What's weird?'), plain-English flow explanations, bookmarking, and markdown report export. Currently at v0.1.0 alpha, it can be installed via prebuilt binaries or cargo.
