About:
Erdtree is a modern, multi-threaded file-tree visualizer and disk usage analyzer written in Rust. It provides colorful and detailed filesystem output, similar to 'du' or 'tree' but with enhanced features like fuzzy search, gitignore support, and interactive modes. The tool is designed for high performance and quick visualization of directory structures and file sizes.
Key Features:
  • Multi-threaded performance for fast execution
  • Colorized output and tree visualization
  • Built-in fuzzy search and filtering capabilities
  • Gitignore support and file metadata display
  • Interactive mode for navigating file systems
Use Cases:
  • Analyzing disk usage to find large files or directories
  • Quickly visualizing project directory structures
  • Navigating complex file systems via CLI
Alternatives:
  • dua – Similar Rust-based disk usage analyzer, focuses on interactive TUI
  • ncdu – Classic disk usage analyzer with a text-based user interface
  • tree – Standard utility for listing files in a tree-like format
