I was already using bat, but I only really scratched the surface of everything it could do. From the video description:

You must log in or # to comment.
If you enjoy bat, may I also recommend you try:
- eza as an alternative to ls
- zoxide as an alternative to cd
- fd as an alternative to find
- fzf paired with fd for enhanced reverse searching and more
- delta for syntax highlighting pager for git, diff, grep, blame output
I’ve been using these for probably around 5-10 years / daily, without issue.
one of us!
Pretty much same, except I use erdtree instead of eza
This is a great video. I always appreciate a deeper look into tools like this.
