> 3) Fuzzy file search in your editor I’ve been using “fzf” 1 for file and directory search and I can’t recommend it enough. It integrates nicely with vim 2 as well. 1. link 2. link to this video

i use fzf daily - especially in Vim. thanks for this another resource I found valuable early on: link to this video EDIT: just realised this is the repo README by the fzf creator. he mentions Samoshkin's video also but it's worth repeating
