¿Qué es eza?
eza is a modern, maintained replacement for the venerable file-listing command-line program ls that ships with Unix and Linux operating systems. Written in Rust, eza gives you more features and better defaults while being small, fast, and just one single binary.
🚀 Por qué importan las últimas versiones: eza is actively developed with frequent releases containing new features, performance improvements, and bug fixes. The latest versions include hyperlink support, custom themes, enhanced Git integration, and many usability improvements over the original exa project.
⚡ Key Features of eza
🎨 Rich Visual Output
Colors to distinguish file types, icons support, and customizable themes. Makes file browsing more intuitive and visually appealing.
🔗 Git Integration
Shows Git status for files and repositories, tracks ignored files, and displays repository information directly in listings.
📊 Extended Metadata
Displays symlinks, extended attributes, mount points, SELinux context, and human-readable relative dates.
🔧 Highly Configurable
Custom themes via theme.yml, extensive command-line options, and backwards compatibility with ls and exa.

- vs exa: Actively maintained, fixes "Grid Bug", hyperlinks, themes, security fixes
