lla is a fast, customizable `ls` replacement written in Rust with multiple listing views, Git-aware output, filtering, content search, and machine-readable formats. It supports themes, shortcuts, and an extensible plugin system including native and WASM plugins.

Use cases

• replace ls with a faster modern alternative
• list directories with git status in terminal
• view directory tree with depth limits
• search file contents from the command line
• output directory listings as json
• group files by modification time
• customize terminal file listing colors and themes

When to choose

• you want a feature-rich ls alternative with tree, long, and git views
• you need machine-readable directory output for scripts
• you want an extensible file lister with plugin support
• you use multiple platforms including Windows and NetBSD

When to avoid

• you need POSIX-exact ls behavior for shell scripts
• you prefer minimal tools with no configuration
• your environment cannot run Rust binaries or lacks WASM support
