Let's talk CLI/TUI and Developer Workflows!I’m looking to refresh my local toolkit and I’m curious: what are the absolute "must-have" CLI or TUI programs in your current rotation? Whether it's a specialized utility for a specific language, a terminal-based interface for a common service, or a workflow-changing alias, I want to hear about it. I’m especially interested in tools that prioritize keyboard-driven navigation and accessibility.My Current Favorites:To get the ball rolling, here are a few tools I’ve been leaning on lately:uv — Fast, reliable Python package and project management.fzf & ripgrep — The classic duo for fuzzy finding and searching.tmux — For session management and persistent terminal workspaces.jq / yq — Essential for wrangling JSON and YAML without leaving the prompt.What about you?What is one tool you've discovered recently that you can't live without?Are there any TUI-based clients for web services (like Mastodon, GitHub, or RSS) that you recommend?Do you have a favorite "hidden gem" script or small utility?

@RareBird15 @programming @linux @selfhosted A few months ago I discovered GNU parallel as I needed a way to upload a lot of files to S3 and it was taking too long. It's a great piece of software to run tasks in parallel.
