Meet Zoxide (z)
Zoxide is a smarter cd command. It remembers which directories you use most frequently, so you can "jump" to them in just a few keystrokes. It works on every shell (PowerShell, Bash, Zsh, CMD).
Usage:z
[query]
query
Part of the directory name you want to go to.
How it works
Instead of typing:
cd C:\Users\Name\Documents\Projects\Work
You just type:
z work
Zoxide learns that "work" usually means that long path.
