ots | Github

What it does: Share end-to-end encrypted secrets with others via a one-time URL.
What we like: Feature-complete, secure.
What we don't like: no GUI option.

yazi | Github

What it does: Blazing fast terminal file manager written in Rust, based on async I/O.
What we like: Feature-complete, regular commits.
What we don't like: Some features seem to be overkill for a terminal-based file manager.

dive | Github

What it does: A tool for exploring each layer in a docker image.
What we like: Extremely useful for reducing docker image sizes; easy to use.
What we don't like: no command-line arguments to automatically analyze the images (must be done using the TUI).

aider | Github

What it does: AI code assistant in your terminal.
What we like: Works well, can connect to most hosted models via API, and supports the top models by default.
What we don't like: Under heavy development (over 12k commits), zero-point release means breaking changes are possible.
