Somewhat self promoting for the first two of these items as I'm directly involved. Leaving out the more obvious ones (Linux distro etc.) as they will have been mentioned. I'll stick to some of the less known things I use.
- Pulsar - a community-led fork of the discontinued Atom text editor. Lemmy community
- Joplin - note taking app. Lemmy community
- Halloy - IRC client built in Rust and Iced
- Navi - Command line cheatsheet tool
- GitUI - Terminal UI git tool
- Skim - Fuzzy finder
- Dust - Disk usage tool (like
du)
Kudos for including some of the Lemmy communities!
Thanks for highlighting Pulsar.
I always found Atom clunky, but it was instrumental in changing how editors were made, perceived, and used.
It did not deserve the death/abandonment it got.
Atom was my go-to editor while in school--hard to believe it's been long enough to be abandoned already. I'm going to have to check Pulsar out.
Dust has completely replaced
duin my every day work. Other tools also written in Rust I make use of include Bat for an upgraded experience fromcat, Tokei for quickly counting and recognising codes, and several other security tools like RustScan.I learn about Joplin today. Thank you for sharing your list.
