Midnight Commander has always been my favorite terminal file manager. It's feature-rich, fast, and actually tries to be a file manager compared to modern alternatives. However, there are quite some features that I never used, and I couldn't configure a Vim bindings that works well for me.

With OpenCode, I can finally make my own terminal file manager. I borrowed the main design concepts from Midnight Commander and some behavior from NVim-Tree file explorer.

I hope you would like it, at least I do. Since this project is entirely vibe-coded, so I'm not going to accept PR from the community, but feel free to open issues and fork it.

still haven't found anything that replaces mc for me. the 2-pane layout is basically muscle memory at this point. everything modern just feels way too bloated or slow. mc is great but customizing the bindings is a total headache tbh. really like the idea of better vim integration here. curious how it handles performance on large directories with 10k+ files? giving it a spin...

I recently switched to almost exclusively using vifm with some zoxide/fzf extra commands + some custom previewers/openers.

		vifm is great if you live in vim, but mc is just hardcoded into my brain at this point. totally agree on zoxide + fzf though, cant imagine navigating a large fs without them now. they're the only 'modern' additions to my workflow that actually felt worth the setup time.

I'm using fman, which is like a lightweight graphical alternative to mc.
