Any cool projects to try out? I remember there was one to replace coreutils.

I am a daily user of fd (find), rg (grep), exa (ls), bat (cat), and am planning to try out sd (sed).

These tools are in my opinion significantly better than the classical UNIX tools: they can be orders of magnitude faster, understand .gitignore, have more intuitive command-line options, and make better use of colors.
