Designed for focus.

Fuzzy Search

50ms debounced live search across all packages. Scoring-based fuzzy matching finds what you mean, not just exact strings.

One interface for Homebrew, Pacman, AUR via yay, and APT. Auto-detected at launch — no config required.

Batch Operations

Select multiple packages with Space, then install or remove in one shot. No repeated confirmations.

Zero Runtime

Pure Rust, no async runtime. Concurrent search via OS threads and mpsc channels. Cold starts in milliseconds.
