A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'

fd: a faster, friendlier find replacement in Rust — fd is a Rust rewrite of find with sensible defaults: regex or glob patterns, parallel directory traversal for speed, color output, smart-case matching, and automatic .gitignore and hidden-file skipping. It targets anyone who wants quick filesystem searches without memorizing find's flags.
