Discover this small, fast and modern alternative to ls a file-listing command-line program that ships with Unix and Linux operating systems. It uses colours to differentiate file types and metadata. It knows about symlinks, extended attributes, and Git. It has support for more commands and icons for more file types. I came accross it today and for me It turned out to be the best ls replacement, with good colour support for distinguishing file types, customisable output, a humane interface and even git metadata support. And above all it’s small, fast, and just one single binary. I thought I'd share here, could be beneficial to someone else here: github. com/ eza-community/ eza
