Joshuito, a Rust-based terminal file manager inspired by Ranger, has grown from a personal project into a robust and widely adopted alternative. It offers efficient file navigation, three-column interface, tab support, and advanced file operations like copying, cutting, and bulk renaming. The project underwent significant refactors, including library changes and practical solutions for challenges such as cut operations, mime type configuration, and user input handling. The supportive community of contributors played a crucial role in its success, teaching valuable lessons in code review, effective communication, and maintaining long-lasting projects. Joshuito’s popularity and continuous improvement are fueled by the author’s personal usage and gratitude towards contributors and users.

    The problem with The Primeagen is that he seems to want to be comedian. Actually, most of the coder stream. Showing off, joking all the time, inserting sponsor etc…

    Better spend your time on actually coding/learning than watching such video which only help their creator (improving their skills, earning money and getting visibility).

    Act like Joshuito, do the work.
