How to get ls output to look like DT's?
I came across https://github.com/sharkdp/vivid and thought it was quite nice, but it doesn't change ls colors for anything but the file names. I really like how everything in DT's videos has color output so I was wondering how he did it. Did he use some script or utility or did he configure it from scratch? If it's the latter, is there a resource I can use to learn how to do it? Thanks.

fd is looking for contributors
fd is my very first Rust project. In fact, if you go back in (Git) history, the project was originally written in C++. I have created various other Rust command-line tools since then, but I love coming back to fd, as I personally use it the most.

LS_COLORS with zsh's autocomplete
Hello. I made my custom LS_COLORS using very nice tool vivid and it works perfectly well. Now I wonder is it possible to use the same file highlighting when zsh autocompletes files names. For example when I type cp it gives me a "menu" of all files and directories in current folder, but they are all white and I would like it to be in the same style as output of the ls command.

Regex generator
Sounds like you're looking for something like grex. Mind you, this does not save you from learning about regular expressions. It‘s more of a supporting tool.

RegExr: Learn, Build and Test Regex
If I understood what you mean, then yes, I bout one https://regex.help/ (powered by https://github.com/pemistahl/grex doing the heavy lifting).
- grex is a library as well as a command-line utility that is meant to simplify the often complicated and tedious task of creating regular expressions. It does so by automatically generating a single regular expression from user-provided test cases.
