Hey Product Hunt,
I love macOS but Finder always fought me ā no real split view, weak keyboard nav, no terminal where I'm working. So I built anf: a native (Swift + AppKit, zero Electron) file manager that merges Finder, Explorer, and orthodox commander workflows.
What people seem to like:
⢠Fast ā native getattrlistbulk bulk reads; a 26,000-item folder opens in ~0.1s.
⢠Split panes + lockable tabs ā park a network drive on one side, work on the other.
⢠Keyboard-first ā a command palette and fully remappable keybindings (Vim/Emacs nav out of the box).
⢠Built-in terminal + open-in-iTerm/Ghostty.
⢠Optional AI ā on-device or Claude: summarize, auto-tag, organize-by-content, search photos by place.
It's free and donation-funded ā signed & notarized, installs clean (brew install --cask anf).
I ship fast (often same-day from a GitHub issue š). Would love your feedback ā what's the one Finder annoyance you'd want fixed first?
