I also really like:

https://github.com/eza-community/eza (modern ls replacement)

https://github.com/BurntSushi/erd (modern tree replacement)

https://github.com/sharkdp/bat (modern cat(1) replacement)

my .zshrc for every system now uses these as drop in replacements

Wrong erd! https://github.com/solidiquis/erdtree

This looks really cool, though. I might try using this as an `ls` replacement, too, just because of how it shows the recursive directory size like `du`. I've always wished windows explorer did that (do any linux gui file managers?)
