Try it live

The shell, in your browser

A sandboxed simulation of the dotfiles shell — the real aliases and the modern-CLI stack (eza, bat, zoxide, fd, ripgrep), with canned but faithful output. Nothing runs on your machine, nothing leaves the page. Type help to see what to try.

This interactive demo needs JavaScript. Here is the command set it simulates — every one is a real alias or tool from the dotfiles stack:

  • ls eza list files — icons, git status, tree (aliased to eza)
  • ll eza -lah --git long listing with permissions, size, git column
  • cat bat view a file — syntax-highlighted, framed (aliased to bat). Try: cat core.version
  • z zoxide smart cd — jump to a frecent dir by substring (aliased to zoxide)
  • fd fd fast, gitignore-aware file find (aliased to fd)
  • rg ripgrep --smart-case recursive search — smart-case by default. Try: rg alias
  • git git (st = status -sb) git short status — the `gst`/`git st` alias from git.zsh
  • help tealdeer (tldr) community quick-reference for a command (aliased to tldr)
  • welcome demo show the welcome banner
  • clear builtin clear the screen
