I wrote a "12 favourite terminal tools" list-article, what did I left out that should be absolutely included?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/commandline

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • modern-unix

    A collection of modern/faster/saner alternatives to common unix commands.

  • lsd

    The next gen ls command

  • sudo dpkg -i lsd_0.23.1_amd64.deb, get the .deb file from release page. Should work.

  • 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.

  • httpie

    πŸ₯§ HTTPie CLI β€” modern, user-friendly command-line HTTP client for the API era. JSON support, colors, sessions, downloads, plugins & more. (by httpie)

  • httpie is my preference over curl or wget. It’s more intuitive.

  • tide

    🌊 The ultimate Fish prompt. (by IlanCosman)

  • https://github.com/IlanCosman/tide is the usual recommendation for a powerlevel10k-like experience.

  • skim

    Fuzzy Finder in rust!

  • Have you ever tried sk? skim is an fzf re-write in 🦞. While I use it occasionally, I never really incorporated fzf into my workflow so I'd be interested to hear your opinion.

  • dua-cli

    View disk space usage and delete unwanted data, fast.

  • Another one I used for years until I found dua-cli. It can be run as a TUI with dua -i for a ncdu like interface.
