    fd

    fd

    A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'

    fd is a program to find entries in your filesytem. It is a simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to find. While it does not aim to support all of find's powerful functionality, it provides sensible (opinionated) defaults for a majority of use cases. First, to get an overview of all available command line options, you can either run fd -h for a concise help message or fd --help for a more detailed version. fd is designed to find entries in your filesystem. The most basic search you can perform is to run fd with a single argument: the search pattern. Instead of just showing the search results, you often want to do something with them. fd provides two ways to execute external commands for each of your search results: the -x/--exec option runs an external command for each of the search results (in parallel), or the -X/--exec-batch option launches the external command once, with all search results as arguments.

    bottom

    bottom

    Yet another cross-platform graphical process/system monitor

    Yet another cross-platform graphical process/system monitor. A customizable cross-platform graphical process/system monitor for the terminal. Supports Linux, macOS, and Windows. Inspired by gtop, gotop, and htop. By default, bottom is somewhat like a dashboard - a bunch of different widgets, all showing different things, and they all cram together to fit into one terminal. If you instead just want to see one widget, maybe you want to look at a graph in more detail, for example, you can "expand" the currently selected widget using the e key, which will hide all other widgets and make that widget take up all available terminal space. To allow for widget-specific keybindings and expansion, there is the idea of widget selection in bottom, where you can focus on a specific widget to work with it. This can be done with the mouse (just click on the widget of interest).

    wasm-pack

    wasm-pack

    Your favorite rust -> wasm workflow tool!

    This tool seeks to be a one-stop-shop for building and working with rust-generated WebAssembly that you would like to interop with JavaScript, in the browser or with Node.js. wasm-pack helps you build rust-generated WebAssembly packages that you could publish to the npm registry, or otherwise use alongside any javascript packages in workflows that you already use, such as webpack. This project is a part of the rust-wasm group. You can find more info by visiting that repo! Currently, wasm-pack requires that you have npm installed to pack and publish your package. Long-term, this will be replaced by a Rust-only version. If you would rather use another package manager that interfaces with the npm registry you may, however, the pack, publish, and login commands wrap the npm CLI interface and as a result require that npm be installed.

    bore

    bore

    bore is a simple CLI tool for making tunnels to localhost

    A modern, simple TCP tunnel in Rust that exposes local ports to a remote server, bypassing standard NAT connection firewalls. That's all it does, no more and no less. This will expose your local port at localhost:8000 to the public internet at bore.pub:<PORT>, where the port number is assigned randomly. Similar to localtunnel and ngrok, except bore is intended to be a highly efficient, unopinionated tool for forwarding TCP traffic that is simple to install and easy to self-host, with no frills attached. (bore totals less than 400 lines of safe, async Rust code and is trivial to set up — just run a single binary for the client and server.) The easiest way to install bore is from prebuilt binaries. These are available on the releases page for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Just unzip the appropriate file for your platform and move the bore executable into a folder on your PATH. You also can build bore from source using Cargo, the Rust package manager.

    Scooter

    Interactive find and replace in the terminal

    Scooter is an interactive find-and-replace terminal UI app. Search with either a fixed string or a regular expression, enter a replacement, and interactively toggle which instances you want to replace. You can also specify a regex pattern for the file paths you want to search. If the instance you're attempting to replace has changed since the search was performed, e.g. if you've switched branches and that line no longer exists, that particular replacement won't occur: you'll see all such cases at the end.

    sshx

    sshx

    Fast, collaborative live terminal sharing over the web

    sshx is a secure, collaborative terminal environment that runs in the browser and enables real-time shared access to a terminal session over the web. It’s designed for use cases like pair programming, remote debugging, teaching, or any scenario where multiple people need to see and interact with the same terminal at the same time. Users can start a session with a simple command and invite others via link, with end-to-end encryption ensuring that the session remains confidential. The interface supports an infinite canvas for arranging multiple terminal panes, real-time remote cursors, automatic reconnection, and predictive local echo to make typing feel fluid even with network latency. SSHX’s mesh networking architecture connects participants to the nearest server, facilitating fast interactions globally. Because it’s open source and cross-platform, it can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, and it integrates with CI/CD workflows to make collaborative debugging easier.

    xleak

    xleak

    A fast terminal Excel viewer with an interactive TUI

    xleak is a lightweight tool for detecting memory leaks and resource mismanagement in C/C++ programs by tracing heap allocations and deallocations with minimal overhead. It hooks into your program’s allocation functions to observe memory usage patterns, helping developers identify locations where memory was allocated but never freed, which is a common source of bugs and performance issues in unmanaged languages. The tool produces detailed reports that show the call stacks associated with leaked allocations, making it easier to track down problematic code paths and fix them. Because it focuses on transparency and low runtime impact, xleak can be used during regular testing cycles without significantly slowing down execution. It also supports integration with unit test suites, allowing teams to automatically enforce memory safety expectations with every build.

    LSD

    LSD

    LSDeluxe for commands

    This project is heavily inspired by the super colorls project but with some little differences. For example it is written in rust and not in ruby which makes it much faster. Install the patched fonts of powerline nerd-font and/or font-awesome. Have a look at the Nerd Font README for more installation instructions. Don't forget to setup your terminal in order to use the correct font. lsd can be configured with a configuration file to set the default options. On non-Windows systems lsd follows the XDG Base Directory Specification convention for the location of the configuration file. The configuration dir lsd uses is itself named lsd. On Windows systems lsd only looks for the config.yaml files in one location. You can also provide a configuration file from a non standard location.

    TAWS

    TAWS

    A terminal-based AWS resource viewer and manager

    TAWS is a terminal-based user interface (TUI) tool designed to help developers view and manage Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources directly from the command line in a curses-style, interactive environment. It provides a unified interface where users can explore their AWS resources such as EC2 instances, S3 buckets, IAM users, and more, all without switching to a web console, which can speed up workflows for frequent cloud administrators and developers alike. Because it runs in a terminal and is written with performance in mind, taws offers rapid navigation, filtering, and inspection of cloud services while maintaining keyboard-driven efficiency, similar to how tools like k9s help interact with Kubernetes clusters. The TUI layout allows users to traverse hierarchical AWS structures, inspect details, and often take action from within the same environment, making cloud management more fluid and less context-switching.
