Eza Modern LS Replacement

Eza is a modern, maintained replacement for the ls command, written in Rust as a community fork of exa which went unmaintained in 2021. The project currently has over 14,000 GitHub stars and is actively developed by the community. It displays file system entries with color-coded file types, permission bits, git status indicators showing added, modified, and untracked files directly in the listing, and human-readable file sizes. Key features include a tree view that can render nested directory structures with configurable depth limits, file icons for visual identification, and git integration that shows staged and unstaged changes inline. The tool supports hyperlinks that make file paths clickable in compatible terminals, extended attributes display, and mount point detection. Unlike the original exa, this fork adds numerous bug fixes, new features, and maintains compatibility with modern Rust toolchains. Installation is available through Homebrew on macOS, Scoop and Winget on Windows, apt on Debian and Ubuntu, dnf on Fedora, pacman on Arch, and cargo install for Rust developers. The MIT licensed project welcomes community contributions and maintains a clear roadmap for future enhancements including improved performance and additional display options.
