Source: [Console review]() Website: [https://github.com/eza-community/eza]() Profile updated: 2026-10-16 Category: [Terminal utilities]() ## Supported tech stack Research checked: 2026-10-11 ### Runs on - Linux (Operating system) - Windows (Operating system) - macOS (Operating system) Source: [Research source]() Documented compatibility; coverage may be incomplete. Written in describes implementation, not user-project language support. README explicitly lists Windows, macOS and Linux. Mount details are limited to Linux and macOS. ## Console’s review — 2024-08-01 Reviewed: 2024-08-01 Author: [David Mytton]() Citation: [This review]() ### What we like Drop-in replacement for ls. Full color support for different list types. Visualizes Git status. Can display files in a grid or tree and can recurse directories. View filters e.g. only show directories, exclude symlinks, follow .gitignore. Customizable columns to show filesystem metadata. Forked from the now unmaintained exa project. ### Tradeoffs Lacks persistent configurability e.g. via a config file - this is coming in the next release. This review reflects Console’s assessment at publication on 2024-08-01. Features and limitations may have changed since the review date. ## Is Eza a fit? Based on [Console’s review published on 2024-08-01](). Summary updated: 2026-10-16 ### Who it’s for Users of the exa project should consider Eza ### Why consider it Eza can replace ls ### Keep in mind Eza lacks persistent configurability ## Also consider [lla](): Compare Eza’s Git-aware listings with lla’s plugin system for additions such as duplicate detection and file hashes.
