Why it exists
If you move, organize, and audit files all day, the macOS default leaves you reaching for workarounds — extra windows, terminal commands, a drawer of utilities. Swift Salamander is one calm tool that respects how you actually work.
Built for file work
The natural shape of "from here to there." Independent tabs, history, and view mode per pane — drag between them to move or copy.
Hit ⌘K from anywhere. Type a few letters, hit Enter, run any action. Hands stay on the home row — 20+ consistent shortcuts.
S3, Drive, Dropbox, B2, OneDrive, SFTP, WebDAV, SMB, FTP. One sidebar, one keymap. Drag a cloud file like it's on your desk.
Modified, added, deleted, untracked, conflicted — a clean badge per row, branch in the status bar. No switching to a terminal.
Spacebar previews like Finder, plus an always-on preview that shows the current selection. Code renders with syntax highlighting.
Live regex preview, conflict detection, atomic apply. Trash-first deletes and atomic writes mean nothing ever disappears silently.
Look & feel
Every surface uses perceptual color. Switch theme, accent, and density without restarting — make it yours, keep it calm.
