+# Find All Files Matching A Name With fd
+
+The [`fd` command](https://github.com/sharkdp/fd) can be used to find files in
+your file system by name. Though it has some nice defaults—it excludes hidden
+directories and respects your `.gitignore` file—you may need to configure
+those.
+
+For instance, I want to find ALL _sitemap_ files in a monorepo.
+
+```bash
+$ fd -I -H sitemap.xml
+```
+
+The `-I` flag tells `fd` to not respect the `.gitignore` file. The `-H` flag
+says to include hidden directories in the recursive search.
+
+This included a bit too much noise from the `node_modules` directory, so I want
+to exclude that.
+
+```bash
+$ fd -I -H -E node_modules sitemap.xml
+```
+
+The `-E` flag can specify one-off directories to exclude from the search.
+
+I can even specify a regex to make sure I capture files that look like
+`sitemap-01.xml`, not just `sitemap.xml`.
+
+```bash
+$ fd -I -H -E node_modules 'sitemap.*.xml'
+```
+
+After familiarizing myself with a few flags, I'm able to take full advantage of
+`fd`.
