Cdpath: Easily Navigate Directories in the Terminal
https://github.com/skywind3000/z.lua is quite nice and has more features, e.g. fzf integration and an interactive mode.

What terminal apps are you using?

I personally use z.lua, but if you're a Rust fan there's also zoxide. Both are multi-platform and highly configurable.

Is there something like z available for git?
With z you can CD into a directory like ~/Documents/Foo/Bar/Baz by executing z baz.

What is your cd system?
I used to keep some directory bookmarks with apparix, but nowadays I just use z.lua.

A new zsh plugin for finding z abbreviations
Currently zabb mainly supports the zoxide implementation of z. It works ok with z.lua, fasd and z, but may not find the shortest abbreviations for those. It may work for other implementations if they support the z -e command. I welcome PRs to expand zabb to other implementations.

zsh Plugin for navigating files/folders
I think that covers your description, and a great folder jumping plugin is zsh-z.

Looking for feedback on my zsh config and setup
I'll just add that if you ever have a reason to try an alternative to zoxide, I've been very happy with zsh-z.

stupid Linux tricks - cd one shell to the current dir of another, without using the clipboard, mouse, or even the pwd command
If you're interested in these types of things take a look at https://github.com/agkozak/zsh-z or https://github.com/wting/autojump

So you've installed `fzf`. Now what?
It has radically improved my workflow in the same way that zsh-z did for me a couple years ago: it reduces the cognitive load of having to remember where things are.

Give me a good example of what could be done with hook functions
z (https://github.com/agkozak/zsh-z), similar to cdr but scores EVERY directory you ever gone into, to sort by frecency (mix of frequency & recency), paired to fzf it's a beast to navigate to a directory (I hardly ever use cd to traverse directories nowadays)
