uutils coreutils is a cross-platform reimplementation of the GNU coreutils in
[Rust](http://www.rust-lang.org). While all programs have been implemented, some
options might be missing or different behavior might be experienced.

<div class="oranda-hide">

We provide prebuilt binaries, manpages, and shell completions from main branch at https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/releases/tag/latest-commit .
The latest stable tag https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/releases/latest also exists for reproducible products and packagers.
Bug reporters should use binary from latest commit.

Minimal compatible glibc version is same with ubuntu-latest runner. Use `coreutils-*-musl` if `coreutils-*-gnu` is not compatible with your system.

## Goals

uutils coreutils aims to be a drop-in replacement for the GNU utils. Differences with GNU
are treated as bugs.

Our key objectives include:
- Matching GNU's output (stdout and error code) exactly
- Better error messages: at a terminal, a parse error is shown as a
  compiler-style report with a caret under the argument at fault, where GNU
  prints a single line (see [error diagnostics](docs/src/extensions-errors.md));
  scripts and pipes still get the plain GNU message
- Providing comprehensive internationalization support (UTF-8)
- Continuously improving performance; significant slowdowns relative to other coreutils implementations
  are treated as bugs
- [Extensions](docs/src/extensions.md) when relevant (example: --progress)

uutils aims to work on as many platforms as possible, to be able to use the same
utils on Linux, macOS, *BSD, Windows, WASI and other platforms. This ensures, for example,
that scripts can be easily transferred between platforms.

uutils coreutils ships by default on Ubuntu since version 25.10.
