zoxide VS bottom

Head over to ajeetdsouza/zoxide and install it now! It's innovative, free, and flexible!

I use this Rust clone which works great, no complaints: https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide

Although, I don't know what the difference is, other than the language of choice.

I use https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide, which is inspired by z and autojump.

Zoxide is basically the 'Rust Rewrite' version of the 'Z' tool and is actively maintained, I haven't had any issues with it: https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide

Indeed, utilities like zoxide which operate primarily as a cd replacement don't attempt to change directories via rust code - they create a shell alias that ultimately invokes a shell builtin to do it.

I also still use zoxide for navigating directories. It's a smarter cd command that learns your habits and makes navigating directories a breeze.

4. Zoxide

Not sure what you mean by bookmarks, but I use zoxide to quickly jump to frequently used folders.

bottom

I'd suggest Bottom as a TUI alternative to the in-built task managers - https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom

It works on Windows also.

If anyone is looking for a "top" like, written in Rust, might have a look at https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom

Looks like bottom with another theme

bottom - A cross-platform graphical process/system monitor with a customizable interface and a multitude of features.

As a macOS user, it boils my brain whenever I've to type in something like ~/Library/Application Support/org.rust-lang.Cargo/config.toml. macOS users have been begging CLI tools to support XDG variables on macOS too. Setting defaults is a strong indication to the community what should be the "preferred" locations. The defaults defined in your article will invariably lead to some authors saying that if that path is good enough for cargo, then it is good enough for their tool. Even the latest draft RFC acknowledges that macOS should use XDG variables too. I've written more about this here.
