  • fzf

    :cherry_blossom: A command-line fuzzy finder

  • I prefer fzf, a tool you must install when you use the command line. It comes with a built in keybind that maps CTRL-r to fuzzy search your history (and a lot more features).

  • 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.
