Switch between sessions in tmux?

Tmux Problem Overview

I'm relatively new to tmux and use it just for local development. In some tmux tutorials, a person will list out their tmux sessions in an enumerated list. There is yellow highlight typically. Does anyone know what I'm talking about and how to do it? Secondly, would you say this is best practice? I'm over here with 8 iTerm2 tabs open :(

Here's a screenshot of what I'm looking for:

Is PREFIX s but the real command is choose-tree. Then you can use it to bind to other key for example to 'S'

A faster switch by name is for example possible with a shell alias. For the zsh it can look as follows:

function tn() (
    if [ -n "$1" ]
      then
         tmux switch -t $1
      else
         echo "no session name"
     fi
  )

With tn go you switch to the tmux session with name go.

Ctrl-b Shift-9 and Ctrl-b Shift-0
