If you want a file full browser experience choose nnn: https://github.com/jarun/nnn . If you have a desktop file for Helix you can use the Gnome Files program to make all your programming language files open in Helix.
If one wants server-side metrics with a little more info than the author's "hacky little script", there's always goaccess [1], which functions in broadly the same way. I even use it with Firebase Hosting-hosted sites via [2] (which I wrote).

Project mention: Any fun/interesting custom scripts or services being ran on your setup? | /r/homelab | 2023-05-16I do everything through a web browser -- I run an Arch VM with a modified version of ttyd running as a systemd service.
Probably everyone knows about the "top" command. Htop is similar, but gives us a more user-friendly output. It shows processes using the most resources, how much available resources you have and who runs those processes. For more information, visit https://htop.dev/
Project mention: Csvlens: Command line CSV file viewer. Like less but made for CSV | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-06While not built around CSV, two terminal spreadsheet tools I have successfully used in the past are sc-im and the (neo)vim plugin vim-table-mode:
https://github.com/andmarti1424/sc-im/
https://github.com/dhruvasagar/vim-table-mode
Back then I stopped using sc-im because it could not import/export XLSX, if I remember correctly. Apparently it can today!
vim-table-mode always felt a little fragile and I don't want to be bound to vim anymore. That said, it still feels like a small miracle to me to have functional spreadsheet formulas inside markdown documents – calculation and typesetting all in one place.

Like some people here and under this post said, I like Kitty and would recommend it to anyone who uses/used Alacritty, as they are very similar in surface. I actually switch between Alacritty and Kitty pretty often, depending on my "mood". I recently went back to Kitty for image support (through chafa though, for better compatibility across terminal emulators). However, Wayland support is poor and I have some issues with fonts being too bold, although it could just be my config...
pspg is a pager intended to be used with SQL command line clients. It was originally created for Postgres (hence the name), but also works with MySQL and others
https://github.com/okbob/pspg
You can also use smenu (https://github.com/p-gen/smenu) to make these and many other selections.
I think most have switched to https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch these days
Project mention: IT Pro Tuesday #276 - Cert Automation, Packet Analysis, Vim Cheatsheet & More | /r/ITProTuesday | 2023-11-08Tio is a user-friendly CLI tool for straightforward serial device management. Allows you to connect to serial TTY devices and perform basic input/output operations through a configuration file or via direct commands. bh0 adds, "I use tio for serial/console on my Mac. Tio is awesome."
