| `nnn` is probably the [fastest and most resource-sensitive](#performance) (with all its capabilities) file browser you have ever used. It's extremely flexible too - integrates with your DE and favourite GUI utilities, works with the desktop opener, supports bookmarks, has smart navigation shortcuts, [navigate-as-you-type](#navigate-as-you-type-mode) mode, disk usage analyzer mode, comprehensive file details and much more. `nnn` was initially forked from [noice](http://git.2f30.org/noice/) but is significantly [different](https://github.com/jarun/nnn/wiki/nnn-vs.-noice) today. | |||
| Cool things you can do with `nnn`: | |||
| - open any file in the default desktop application or a custom one | |||
| - *navigate-as-you-type* (*search-as-you-type* enabled even on directory switch) | |||
| - check disk usage with number of files in current directory tree | |||
| - run desktop search utility (gnome-search-tool or catfish) in any directory | |||
| - copy absolute file paths to clipboard, spawn a terminal and use the paths | |||
| - navigate instantly using shortcuts like `~`, `-`, `&` or handy bookmarks | |||
| - use `cd .....` at chdir prompt to go to a parent directory | |||
| - detailed file stats, media info, list and extract archives | |||
| - pin a directory you may need to revisit and jump to it anytime | |||
| - lock the current terminal after a specified idle time | |||
| - change directory on exit | |||
| If you want to edit a file in vi with some soothing music in the background while referring to a spec in your GUI PDF viewer, `nnn` got it! [Quickstart](#quickstart) and see how `nnn` simplifies those long desktop sessions... | |||
