zoxide is a smarter cd command that learns your habits. It tracks directory visits and uses frecency (frequency + recency) to rank directories, allowing quick navigation with minimal typing.
After shell integration, z foo jumps to the most likely directory containing "foo". Multiple patterns narrow results: z foo bar finds paths with both patterns in order.
The zi command opens fzf for interactive selection when multiple matches exist.
Shell initialization: add eval "$(zoxide init bash)" (or zsh, fish, etc.) to your shell profile.
zoxide is a faster, more modern alternative to autojump and z.sh, written in Rust.

add path

Add directory to database

Edit database interactively

Import from autojump/z database

Generate shell initialization

Search database

Remove directory from database

-l, --list

List matches instead of selecting best

Show scores with results

Interactive selection (requires fzf)

Exclude path from results

Requires shell initialization to track directories and provide z/zi commands.
Database needs time to learn your patterns. New installations have limited effectiveness.
Interactive mode requires fzf to be installed.
Different from the z shell plugin but can import its database.
