About try

try creates directories for small project experiments and provides an interactive way to find and enter them. It can sort recently used directories and create directories with the current date in their names.

The tool is distributed as a Ruby gem, with an optional native binary. Its README describes a one-file Ruby script and notes that the gem has no dependencies.

Strengths

  • Creates separate directories for experiments
  • Finds directories with fuzzy search
  • Can sort by recent use and add dates to new directories

Limitations

  • The Ruby script and gem require Ruby; the native binary is optional.
