Marlin is a lightweight file browser built from the ground-up to be responsive, simply designed and easy to use. Marlin is based on gtk3 and uses Gnome 3 technologies extensively and is built in C and uses vala for interface. Some key features of XFCE file-browser Thunar too are included to give it a certain slickness despite it being a File browser.
Marlin uses 'extended actions' to manage files. This service allows applications to request some extended actions for a list of files depending on their mimetypes and some other constraints. Any user can extend their applications by adding custom actions.
