Rust Easy! Modern Cross-platform Command Line Tools to Supercharge Your Terminal
Let us start with the terminal itself. Alacritty is a cross-platform modern terminal emulator with sensible defaults. It is GPU accelerated, super fast, and highly configurable. You can use it on Linux, macOS, and Windows. It doesn't have much in terms of a UI, and hence all configurations are done through YAML files. I don't use it as my primary terminal as I love Yakuake too much for all its cool features. We can get most of those features (tabs, split panes, dropdown mode) using tmux and tdrop if really needed. I use Alacrity when I need speed and GPU acceleration. There is an excellent tutorial on using Alacritty with tmux.

ScratchPad terminal doesnt load settings from zshrc/zpreztorc
tdrop is de/wm agnostic and can make most terminals a drop down terminal.
- How do I substitute Kitty as the terminal for the yakuake drop down?

2-minute Tmux Tour
I've been using tdrop for about a year and not knowing how to get rid of the green bar it put at the bottom. Well, now that's fixed and I've learned to use tmux to switch between newsboat, cmus, lf, etc. -TY!

No, seriously, drop-downs like yakuake have saved me countless minutes.
You can also use tdrop to turn any terminal into a dropdown terminal

Using a drop-down terminal (with tdrop) doesn't play well with activities. Any solution?
So it's pretty clear what happens and why. I'm using tdrop, a little tool that allows you to use any terminal emulator as a drop-down terminal/scratchpad. Calling tdrop terminal with some parameters will show a terminal window, calling it again will hide it. I've bound this to a key, let's say HOTKEY.

A ‘Software Developer’ Knows Enough to Deliver Working Software Alone and in Teams
It depends on the scale of the project but man, if you can't build a simple CRUD app in your preferred stack and deploy it in some fashion (even if it's just a binary posted on some website, kinda like Exa) then that's just disappointing...

Which 2nd language should I learn?
Can compile to a single binary to build tools like exa
- Exa Is Deprecated

macOS Command-Line Tools You Might Not Know About
Some of us don't want all of GNU's utilities; just on an as-needed basis. They're not as needed as they once were.
Many of these utilities have been rewritten in Rust and have more modern features.
For example, instead of ls, I use exa [1]. Or ripgrep [2] instead of grep.

List of apps I use every day - Version 2023
fish: A very fast shell with various customization options to streamline daily commands. I discovered it through this post by @caarlos0, where he provides more details about performance and the differences between fish and zsh. Additionally, I use some CLI utilities like delta, exa, and ripgrep. Here's my dotfiles for fish.

I still use exa for listing files in the terminal. It's a modern replacement for ls with a lot of useful features. With icons, colors, and git integration, it makes listing files much nicer.
What are some alternatives?

lsd - The next gen ls command
equake
colorls - A Ruby gem that beautifies the terminal's ls command, with color and font-awesome icons. :tada:
