About fzy
fzy is a fuzzy finder for the terminal that enables developers to search and filter text interactively. It performs fast pattern matching against lists of strings, allowing users to quickly narrow down results by typing partial matches. The tool integrates with command-line workflows and text editors, making it useful for navigating files, command history, and other terminal-based data. Developers can pipe text into fzy to filter it in real time, with results displayed dynamically as input is typed.
fzy was developed by jhawthorn and is written in C, making it lightweight and performant. It is distributed under the MIT license, which permits both personal and commercial use with minimal restrictions. As an open-source command-line utility, fzy requires no purchase or subscription and can be compiled and installed from source code.
