television

brew install television v0.15.9 MIT

Fast, hackable fuzzy finder TUI written in Rust for searching files, commands, and git history.

Why you might care

Television is a general-purpose fuzzy finder that works across files, git history, and shell commands in a single tool. It's fast (Rust-based), portable, and highly configurable—useful if you want fzf-like functionality but with more built-in sources and a cleaner API for extending with custom commands.
