About

Vifm is an open-source, terminal-based file manager that brings Vim-style keybindings and command-line conventions to file navigation and management. It supports features like dual-pane views, directory tree comparison, FUSE filesystems, color schemes, and extensive scripting. It runs cross-platform on GNU/Linux, BSD, Solaris, Windows, and macOS.

For

developers and power users who prefer terminal-based workflows

How it works
