jfind

jfind is a better version of fzf.

• Faster loading
• Faster sorting
• Less memory usage
• Better sorting results

Inspiration

jfind was originally written before fzf version 0.32.0. Prior to this verison, fzf had a terrible scoring algorithm. Instead of switching back to fzf, I continue to use jfind due to the better performance and nice aesthetic.

Neovim Plugin

You can use jfind as a neovim plugin. You can find the repo here.
