Overview
FSearch is a whole-disk file search tool for macOS. It finds files by name in about a millisecond, accepts typos, and searches inside indexed text files. The index is kept current with file changes, and queries can target folders, file types, sizes, and modification times. It is used as a CLI with a small daemon or as a Rust crate for local desktop search.
Key features
- Whole-disk file search by name with typo tolerance
- Search inside files using an indexed content search
- Filter by folder, file type, size, and modification time
- Use as a CLI with a small daemon or as a Rust crate
Best for
This fits people searching large Mac disks for files or text content from the terminal, and developers who want the same search behavior in a Rust-based integration.
