Broot
New way to see and navigate directory trees
About Broot
A tool to navigate directory trees quickly, showing an overview with fuzzy search, file previews and sizes, letting users open, move and manage files without losing context in deep hierarchies. Its open development model means documentation, plugins and community support are publicly available, and organisations can contribute fixes upstream instead of waiting on a vendor roadmap. For many teams it becomes long-lived infrastructure: simple to back up, straightforward to automate and independent of per-seat pricing as usage grows steadily.
