Versioning
fd-find as a more human-friendly alternative to find which, by default, ignores paths listed in things like .gitignore and mimics Vim's smartcase option.
hyperfine as an analogue to the UNIX time command which can do warm-up runs, run the command multiple times to do statistical outlier detection, display a progress bar for the multiple runs, export results to CSV/JSON/etc., parameterize the runs, etc.
miniserve as a simple, easy way to serve up some files or accept some uploads over HTTP.
ripgrep for fast searching of file contents
rust-script as a way to quickly write little single-file programs in Rust without having to spin up a whole project.
skim as a Rust clone of fzf with some additional features. (Including being usable as a library you can embed in your own programs)
tokei for gathering statistics about a codebase (i.e. number of files, lines, lines of code, lines of comments, and lines of blanks, per language)
xd as an alternative to xxd that doesn't have as many features, but renders un-printable characters in a reversible "codepage 437 plus a symbol for NULL" mapping to ensure that all patterns in the visualization of binary files are visible... not just ones that occur in printable characters.
