Description

While there are several robust file managers available, many do not adhere to Material Design principles. Even those that claim to follow Material Design often exhibit various minor design imperfections, such as issues with layout, alignment, padding, icons, and fonts, which can create discomfort for users like me, though these flaws might not bother everyone enough to seek out a solution. This dissatisfaction ultimately led me to develop my own file manager. Additionally, numerous popular and trustworthy file managers are closed-source, and while I occasionally use them to access and modify files requiring root permissions, I find myself feeling uneasy about granting any closed-source application such extensive access to my device. After all, this device contains a wealth of personal information, and the level of trust is solely based on the developers' intentions. Therefore, it's crucial to prioritize transparency when it comes to access rights within applications.

Description

XtraFinder enhances the native Finder on Mac with features like tabs, dual panels, and quick access to a variety of functions through menus, context menus, and toolbars. Users can easily cut files with Command + X and paste them using Command + P, allowing for seamless copying and moving of files without having to wait for previous actions to finish. The application keeps folders organized above files and enables users to view the complete names of all files without the hassle of adjusting column widths manually. It also offers visually appealing label designs reminiscent of older versions of Finder, with full-row labels and customizable colors, including light text on dark backgrounds, along with vibrant icons in the sidebar. A simple middle-click opens folders in new windows or tabs, while a list view displays the count of items in folders and the size of selected files in the status bar. To uninstall XtraFinder on OS X versions 10.11 to 10.15, you will need to disable SIP, and it is advisable to check the XtraFinder website regularly, ideally on a monthly basis, for updates and additional information. Overall, XtraFinder significantly streamlines file management for Mac users, making it a valuable tool for enhancing productivity.
