○ Software alternatives
Here's a small list of programs which I use as alternatives to classic UNIX-and-related tools. Lesser-known first to keep the list interesting:
- LeftWM - a window manager
- Helix - a text editor
- Zellij -
tmux
alternative, batteries included - Nu - cross-platform shell with a fresh approach to streams & redirections
- Zola - a static site generator, which powers this website
- Paru - AUR helper for all Arch folks
- Neovide -
neovim
client with eye-candy animations - Caddy - a web server with automatic HTTPs and refreshingly simple configuration
- Alacritty - a terminal emulator
- Wezterm - another terminal emulator
- Zoxide - a smarter
cd
command - Fzf - Fuzzy finder for pretty much everything
- fd - unix
find
but actually usable without having to readman
each time - duf - like
df
but easier to read - Popsicle - USB File Flasher
I encourage you to try them out, perhaps some of them will improve your workflow or at least be fun play with.
