If anyone is interested in a rust version (probably the main benefit being you can use it as a rust library) there is a similar tool called skim[1]
It's actively developed and seems to have a non-overlapping set of features with fzf other than the basics (they both have features the other doesn't, and skim copies most of the core ui from fzf)

- ducktective 6y agoLast I heard, skim's fuzzy search was not "as good as" fzf (I don't know in what measure?)... And there were talks of how skim could not utilize concurrency as efficiently as fzf and that has something to do with how Rust handles concurrency and how Go does it... These were just the result of me skimming (ha!) over internet posts so I'd be curious if anyone could elaborate on them...
- da39a3ee 6y agoWhen I tried skim the list didn't update as "smoothly" as fzf, in response to changing input. No language bias here! (I personally use Rust but not Go) I'd be interested to know more.
