Maintainer activity

2 people did triage or write work on this repository in the last 12 months.

Counts unlabeled, assigned, unassigned, milestoned, demilestoned, locked, unlocked over the last 12 months. These are issue and pull request events that require triage or write permission. Commits and code review are not counted. labeled and renamed are excluded because GitHub issue forms record the issue author as the actor. Figures from October 11, 2026. This count is not comparable across projects: each project's automation decides which of these events a person emits. How this is counted.

How this project is maintained

Roughly one issue in four opened in the past year never receives a reply. 71% of open issues come from outside the core team, so the backlog reflects real-world use rather than internal planning. Work labelled "tech debt" is answered fastest, typically in under an hour, while "layout" waits about 4 days. 61% of tracked open issues have had no activity in three months, so the open count overstates what is actively being worked. Only 42% of issues opened in the past year have been closed.

Detailed Description

Superfile is a terminal file manager that provides a modern interface for navigating and managing files within the command line.

The tool addresses the need for an efficient, visually appealing file management experience in the terminal. Rather than relying on traditional command-line navigation, superfile offers a graphical interface within the terminal environment, combining the speed of keyboard-driven workflows with visual feedback that makes file operations more intuitive. Built in Go and leveraging the Bubbletea framework, it delivers responsive performance suitable for terminal-based workflows.

Superfile suits developers and system administrators who spend significant time in the terminal and want to move beyond basic command-line file operations without leaving their shell environment. It works well for projects where file management efficiency matters, such as development environments, server administration, or any workflow centered around terminal usage. The project positions itself as a modern alternative to traditional terminal file managers, emphasizing visual design and user experience alongside functionality.

Development activity on the project shows consistent engagement with regular commits addressing improvements and fixes. The maintainers respond to issues and pull requests, indicating active stewardship of the codebase. The project accepts community contributions, as evidenced by its participation in community-driven development initiatives. Updates flow steadily into the repository, suggesting the tool receives ongoing refinement rather than remaining static.
