However, many tools exist which attempt to improve upon cd. autojump, z, and Fasd all track directory usage and give you a single key shortcut for changing to commonly accessed directories. r/commandline has an detailed discussion of these various cd replacements, but the one that has the most momentum is zoxide. zoxide is a rewrite of z in Rust and promises improved speed.

How to navigate directories faster with Bash (2015)
In my opinion this replaces (and even does a better job i.e. less typing in the end, less commands to remember) almost everything in the article, especially when combined with https://github.com/rupa/z/. (or the PS counterpart ZLocation). Might be the type of work of course, but ever since I started using this I can go by weeks without needing to manually type cd. After all most of my time is spent in the same directories anyway. And if not, I'm really not manually going to type it, not even tab it, if it can be fuzzy matched since that is nearly always faster. tldr; people do yourself a favor and stop cd'ing around.
I use `z` as a less manual way to search common directories instead of changing $CDPATH. It's based on 'frecency'.
