Garuda

Zig INCOMPLETE GitHub

Garuda is a directory tree viewer built in Zig, replicating PowerShell’s tree command. Named after the divine bird vehicle of Vishnu in Hindu mythology, it aims to provide a bird’s-eye view of directory structures.

Vision

  • Fast: compiled Zig binary, instant execution
  • Colorful: colored output for files, directories, and symlinks
  • Cross-platform: works on Linux, macOS, and Windows
  • Lightweight: single binary, no dependencies

Usage

garuda              # current directory
garuda /path/to/dir # specific directory
garuda -d 3         # limit depth

Status

Garuda is an incomplete, early-stage project. The repository exists with initial structure but the implementation is not yet fully realized. It is on the roadmap for future development.
