   i started using this when i was in school. this was cool file manager+text editor it was all nice apart from the fact that if you don't understand any language apart from english then It will be difficult for you to understand it's advanced features like plugin's and all. i mainly used this for writing code.

   🏁 Competitors: there is no one who can compete with this vintage beast.

   👍 Pros:    This is very light weight file manager+code editor so even if you have old pc you can run this with full speed.|If you do competitive programming then this is for you this editor is so accurate that even sublime text fails in front of this vintage beast.|As name suggests file manger you can manage your files better than any other code editor's like clion,sublime text,visual studio code etc...|If you understand all features of far manager you will litrally get addicted to it.

• So...As a default file manager, how did Finder perform today?

  You can check out some of its features here: Https://cocoatech.io/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Recommendation for app that makes the experience of macOS even better?

  PathFinder better finder, replaces stock finder. Source: over 2 years ago

• Navigating the Finder with many files and folders

  Cocoatech’s Path Finder is much faster to read folder content than any other complex finder like product (Finder, Forklift, QSpace). If you want even for reactivity, try Marta. Source: over 2 years ago

• Finder progress bar?

  It's personal preference so I'm not commenting on it. If "file explorer" by your definition is a window with have multiple columns for displaying file hierarchy, file list of current working directory, and file preview, get Pathfinder (https://cocoatech.com/). I myself can never understand why any people with sanity can work in that pesky layout that wastes two/third of screen space. Source: over 2 years ago

• Alternative to Finder find better file filtering

  Path Finder, ForkLift, and HoudahSpot are fine adjuncts/alternatives that are worth a try. Source: over 3 years ago
