broot Interactive Tree-View File Navigator

broot is a Rust-based terminal tool that provides a new way to see and navigate directory trees. It offers fuzzy search, file preview, git status integration, and an interactive tree view that adapts to your terminal size.

Installation

Basic usage or getting-started notes:

• And you have other types of searches, for example, searching on file content (start with c/):

• You may also apply logical operators or combine patterns, for example, searching test in all files except JSON ones could be !/json$/&c/test and searching carg both in file names and file contents would be carg|c/carg.

• type a verb. For example, :e opens the file in your preferred editor (which may be a terminal one)
