||
summary: This note lists modern Linux CLI tools that enhance the standard command
|
||
line experience with alternatives like `bat` (highlighted `cat`), `fd`/`rg` (faster
|
||
find/grep), TUIs like `lazygit`/`lazydocker`, and utilities for JSON (`jq`, `jc`,
|
||
`gron`) and Python (`uv`). These tools offer significant improvements over traditional
|
||
Linux commands.
