# File finder **(FREE ALL)**
With file finder, you can search for a file in a repository directly from the GitLab UI.
File finder is powered by the [`fuzzaldrin-plus`](https://github.com/jeancroy/fuzz-aldrin-plus) library, which uses fuzzy search and highlights results as you type.
## Search for a file
To search for a file:
1. On the left sidebar, select **Search or go to** and find your project.
1. Select **Code > Repository**.
1. In the upper right, select **Find file**.
1. In the search box, start typing the filename.
1. From the dropdown list, select the file.
To go to file finder, you can also press <kbd>t</kbd> anywhere in your project.
To go back to **Files**, press <kbd>Esc</kbd>.
To narrow down your results, include `/` in your search.
