# yazi vs grok-build

yazi and grok-build share 8 technologies: Tokio, ansi-to-tui, Ratatui, image, tracing, tracing-appender, tracing-subscriber, and log. Both are written in Rust.

- [sxyazi/yazi](https://seerepo.com/r/sxyazi/yazi): 💥 Blazing fast terminal file manager written in Rust, based on async I/O.
- [xai-org/grok-build](https://seerepo.com/r/xai-org/grok-build): SpaceXAI's coding agent harness and TUI. Fullscreen, mouse interactive, extensible.
