I'm unaware of any Rust rewrites outside of coreutils, so:

    sudo apt install coreutils-from-gnu

There aren't true 1:1 clones, but there's ripgrep (inspired by GNU grep) and fd (inspired by GNU find). Those two I like, though. I think they're thoughtfully designed and in ripgrep's case at least (I just haven't read posts/comments by fd's author), it was developed with some close study of other grep implementations. I still use GNU grep and GNU find as well, but rg and fd are often nice for me.

The other nice thing about rg and fd is that they work natively on Windows.
