The oxidation of the terminal (Rust CLI replacements)

A list of terminal command replacements that are written in Rust, because it's fun.

CLI tools (direct replacements)

• bat replaces cat
• exa replaces ls and tree
• fd replaces find
• Starship prompt is a cross-shell prompt
• skim replaces fzf
• ripgrep replaces grep (or ack, etc)
• dust replaces du
• hyperfine replaces time
• procs replaces ps
• sd replaces sed for certain use cases
• ytop (or bottom on windows) replaces htop

Shell and terminal emulation

• nushell is a whole shell.
• alacritty replaces iTerm2 (warning: missing features)

Thanks to everyone that recommended new tools to try, including zkat__ and everyone else on twitter.
