browsr is a a pleasant file explorer in your terminal supporting all filesystems.
It’s a command line TUI (text-based user interface) application that empowers you to browse the contents of local and remote filesystems with your keyboard or mouse.
You can quickly navigate through directories and peek at files whether they’re hosted locally, in GitHub, over SSH, in AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure Blob Storage. View code files with syntax highlighting, format JSON files, render images, convert data files to navigable datatables, and more.
This is free and open source software.
