Surprised no one mentioned WizTree which is a lot faster than WinDirStat

This is the kind of tool that should be baked into the kernel. It's never there when you need it, and when you do need it, it is probably already a full disk and you maybe can't just download it.
This is super cool, I've always used ncdu for this kinda thing but I like this a lot better. Thanks for sharing!

Is this faster than diskx inventory or other gui tools?

This looks fantastic, reminds me a lot of SpaceSniffer. The focus view or allowing for navigation through chunks is a nice essential inclusion. One desire might be quick actions.
Doing size of squares based on the # of packages a dependency installation causes: Helps I guess users hellbent on having their install minimal figure out what they can afford to remove for as few packages on their system as reasonably possible.

I had just been looking for a windirstat like tool for linux the other day.
What I really also want is a way to do an offline index that this reads ... I ended up using duc. Maybe I will fork and add it!
thanks for sharing!

Really cool.
If possible, being able to “brew install” on a Mac would be killer

Love it! If this works well I'm going to add it to my basic linux tools toolkit next to htop and the like.

Nice! The file-type extension partitioning feature is a really smart addition to handle the limitations of block characters.

Ooh, this is nice. I loved windirstat back in the day.
