I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
ls supports colours and symbols for file metadata (they're things like / and *, not icons, and they don't differentiate between file types, but I've very rarely been bothered about that. Either a directory is so full you're better off asking ls *.png to dig out the pictures or it's small and organised and you don't need help reading it.
