  • fd

    A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'

  • Yeah. I do use fd a lot. It will respect your .gitignores and is much faster than find in general. Sometimes find will be really slow just because it’ll scan through your entire node_modules and stuff. If you also know you only care about file in e.g. your src/ directory, then you can constrain it to that which will be faster. I think it will probably be fast enough for your purposes.

  • skim

    Fuzzy Finder in rust!

  • There’s also a variety of fuzzy finders like https://github.com/lotabout/skim or fzf. Basically the same thing, but different interface.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
