A themeable LS_COLORS generator with a rich filetype datebase.
vivid is a generator for the LS_COLORS environment variable that controls the colorized output of ls, tree, fd, bfs, dust and many other tools.
It uses a YAML configuration format for the filetype-database and the color themes. In contrast to dircolors, the database and the themes are organized in different files. This allows users to choose and customize color themes independent from the collection of file extensions. Instead of using cryptic ANSI escape codes, colors can be specified in the RRGGBB format and will be translated to either truecolor (24-bit) ANSI codes or 8-bit codes for older terminal emulators.
Instant, easy, and predictable development environments.
Devbox is a command-line tool that lets you easily create isolated shells for development. You start by defining the list of packages required for your project, and Devbox creates an isolated, reproducible environment with those packages installed.
In practice, Devbox works similar to a package manager like yarn – except the packages it manages are at the operating-system level (the sort of thing you would normally install with brew or apt-get).

Pay Respects suggests fixes to wrong console commands by pressing F.
It's a command-not-found and thefuck replacement written in Rust.
The command-not-found module is a feedback provider plugin for PowerShell. This feedback provider depends on the command-not-found utility, which is often available on Linux by default, to provide suggestions when a native command cannot be found.
bash also calls the command-not-found utility to provide suggestions when a command cannot be found. But this feedback provider plugin does more than that, thanks to the command-line predictor feature in PowerShell. It also implements the ICommandPredictor interface and serves as a predictor. When the resulted feedback contains actionable items, such as commands to run, they will be used as predictive suggestions to streamline the user's command-line experience.
