While we're on the topic of finding stuff in Emacs, check out the `consult-ripgrep` [1] command from the Consult package by Daniel Mendler. Consult coupled with Orderless [2] package is a super power. You can even export the results (using Embark [3]) into a wgrep buffer, make edits on just the search results, and have them applied across the code base!
> Emacs has better fuzzy finding
With due respect to Mr. Petersen, and as an Emacs user myself, I really can't agree. When I fire up fzf I just type and generally without any thinking I get what I want. Emacs takes some configuration to get to that point; the built in flex completion is, for whatever reason, not as robust in my experience.
In fact, in my current config I've been using fzf (or really skim) for completion within Emacs, via fussy: https://github.com/jojojames/fussy
The `Emacs-wgrep` [1] package is what allows you to edit a standard Emacs grep buffer and have the specified changes applied to all the project's files. I just recently started using it, and it's extremely handy!
