Getting started

Install the binary, reload your shell, and jump to your first directory.

1. Install

curl -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Samujalphukan228/jump-cli/master/install.sh | sh

Pre-built binaries are on GitHub Releases for Linux and macOS. The installer downloads one when available, otherwise builds from source.

2. Reload your shell

source ~/.bashrc   # or ~/.zshrc

The installer appends shell integration from jump.sh — this provides the jump and exp commands.

3. Try it

jump src

Opens a ranked list of directories matching src. Press Enter to cd there.

4. Open the explorer

exp

Browse the current directory. Press c to cd into the selected folder and exit.

That's it. No config files required.
