The uutils project reimplements ubiquitous command line utilities in Rust. Our goal is to modernize the utils, while retaining full compatibility with the existing utilities.
Projects
coreutils
The commands you use everyday: ls, cp, etc.
findutils
Finding what you need: find, locate, updatedb & xargs.
diffutils
Comparing text and files: diff, cmp, diff3, sdiff.
Crates
We maintain a variety of public crates to support our projects, which are published on crates.io.
