About:
dua-cli is a command-line utility written in Rust designed for fast and efficient disk usage analysis. It provides an intuitive interface to visualize which files and directories are consuming the most space, enabling users to quickly identify storage bottlenecks. The tool also includes functionality to safely delete unwanted data, helping to reclaim disk space with minimal effort.
Key Features:
  • Fast performance due to Rust implementation
  • Interactive terminal user interface (TUI)
  • Intuitive navigation and visualization of directory trees
  • Built-in file deletion capabilities
Use Cases:
  • Identifying large files and directories consuming disk space on a system
  • Cleaning up temporary files or old projects to free up storage
  • Analyzing disk usage on servers or remote machines via terminal
Alternatives:
  • ncdu – ncdu is a classic, widely available tool, but dua-cli offers a more modern interface and generally faster performance.
  • dust – dust is another Rust-based alternative that focuses heavily on visualization, often presenting data in a more compact format.
