No description of cppq yet.
Iruka is a native macOS file manager for developers and people who live in the terminal. It's written in Swift (not Electron) and inspired by KDE's Dolphin. Its main feature is a built-in terminal that stays in sync with the folder you're browsing, so you never have to cd to where you already...

Iruka: The Mac File Manager With a Terminal That Follows You
As answered by people managing cppq and Iruka.sh.
Iruka.sh's answer:
Iruka's terminal follows you. The built-in terminal panel stays in sync with whatever folder you're browsing, so you never cd to where you already are. Syncing pauses on its own while a long-running command is active. Finder, Path Finder and ForkLift don't do this. Iruka combines it with things developers normally need three or four tools for: one-click SSH, S3/SFTP/WebDAV mounts, git status and diffs, grep-powered content search, and a Review pane that shows which files an AI coding agent just changed.
Iruka.sh's answer:
Iruka.sh's answer:
Developers and terminal power users on macOS: people who constantly switch between Finder and a terminal, manage remote servers over SSH, work with S3 buckets, or use AI coding agents like Claude Code and want to see what changed. Many have come from Linux, where file managers like KDE's Dolphin have had an embedded terminal for years, and they miss it on the Mac.
But honestly, you don't need to use the terminal to love Iruka. It's just a very nice UI, which gives you document and multimedia previews just as much as a terminal (which you can hide)
Iruka.sh's answer:
On Linux I used KDE's Dolphin, and its embedded terminal that follows you around was something I relied on every day. When I moved to macOS, nothing came close. Finder had no terminal, and the paid alternatives either bolted one on or didn't sync it with the folder. I kept opening a terminal, typing cd, and pasting paths from Finder dozens of times a day. So I built the file manager I wanted: native Swift, a synced terminal at its core, and the developer tools I kept reaching for (SSH, S3, git, grep) built in. "Iruka" means dolphin in Japanese, a nod to where the idea came from.
