File manager with image preview in the terminal?

Kitty terminal lf (file manager) CliFM wezterm
  1. Super fast, GPU and OpenGL based terminal emulator with tiling support

    • Open Source
    You should try a terminal emulator that supports this 'natively' - Kitty is one of them. It has a 'kitten' (kind of plugin/module) that displays pictures.

  2. Terminal file manager written in Go (programming language).
    Yes, I'm looking to be using Kitty. I believe that WezTerm does pretty much everything as well. Kitty can display images with kitty +kitten icat image.jpg. But that's a little bit different to allowing image previews in a file manager. However, lf with image previews seems to be very capable. Image previews work fine in urxvt for example.

    CliFM is a completely CLI-based, shell-like and KISS file manager written in C: simple, fast, and lightweight as hell.

    Commandline app to simplify directory navigation.
    Looks like broot will do this: https://dystroy.org/broot/.
