Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.
ugrep
- Ugrep – a more powerful, ultra fast, user-friendly, compatible grep
- The ugrep file pattern searcher
-
Ripgrep is faster than {grep, ag, Git grep, ucg, pt, sift}
I switched from from ripgrep to ugrep and never looked back. It's just as fast, but also comes with fuzzy matching (which is super useful), a TUI (useful for code reviews), and can also search in PDFs, archives, etc.
The optional Google search syntax also very convenient.

ugrep 4.3.2 with updated TUI
Installation and user guide: ugrep.com (no ads, no cookies, just plain HTML in a GitHub page)
- New Ugrep 4.0

ugrep 4.0 released + performance benchmarks

ripgrep is faster than {grep, ag, git grep, ucg, pt, sift}
These ripgrep announcements are getting a bit old, don't you think? Ripgrep hasn't improved or added new features since 2016. There are other fast alternatives with a lot more features, like ugrep and qgrep for example. Ugrep has fuzzy regex pattern search, archive search (even nested archives!), Boolean search queries like Google, interactive query TUI, hexdumps, and is compatible with GNU grep (ripgrep is not).

ugrep vs. grep – What are the differences?
It's the first time I hear about the ugrep. Would be nice to compare it with ripgrep, since both provide benchmark tables listing their tool at the top :D. For my everyday use speed doesn't matter much, as well as interactive mode seems useless (YMMV). So I'm staying with ripgrep for now.
- ugrep 3.10 - yet another grep for you - this one is fast and has a ton of cool features: now outputs directory trees for your viewing pleasure

The Bun Shell
I agree. I’ve written about this before but this is what murex (1) does. It reimplements some of coreutils where there are benefits in doing so (eg sed, grep etc -like parsing of lists that are in formats other than flat lines of text. Such as JSON arrays)
Mutex does this by having these utilities named slightly different to their POSIX counterparts. So you can use all of the existing CLI tools completely but additionally have a bunch of new stuff too.
Far too many alt shells these days try to replace coreutils and that just creates friction in my opinion.

Jaq – A jq clone focused on correctness, speed, and simplicity
This is exactly what Murex shell does. It has lots of builtin tools for querying structured data (of varying formats) but also supports POSIX pipes for using existing tools like `jq` et al seamlessly too.

The Case for Nushell
Stable is a problem because a lot of these shells don’t offer any guarantees for breaking changes.
My own shell, https://github.com/lmorg/murex is committed to backwards compatibility but even here, there are occasional changes made that might break backwards compatibility. Though I do push back on such changes as much as possible, to the extent that most of my scripts from 5 years ago still run unmodified.

Nushell.sh ls – where size > 10mb – –sort-by modified
This is similar to how my shell works. It still just passes bytes around but additionally passes information about how those bytes could be interpreted. A schema if you will. So it works as cleanly with POSIX / GNU / et al tools as it does with fancy JSON, YAML, CSV and other document formats.
It basically sits somewhere between Powershell and Bash: typed pipelines like Powershell but without sacrificing familiarity with all the CLI commands you already use day in and day out.

As an aside, I’m about to drop a massive update in the next few days that will make the shell even more intuitive to use.

so_stupid_search - It's my honor to drive you fucking fire faster, to have more time with your Family and Sunshine.This tool is for those who often want to search for a string Deeply into a directory in Recursive mode, but not with the great tools: grep, ack, ripgrep .........every thing should be Small, Thin, Fast, Lazy....without Think and Remember too much ...一个工具最大的价值不是它有多少功能,而是它能够让你以多快的速度达成所愿......
