Products that do what Leaves – A text-UI disk usage treemap visualizer does
GUI disk analyzers are great for figuring out what's filling up your laptop/desktop drive. On containers or remote servers, the options are limited to purely text based utilities (e.g. du) or list-centric TUIs (e.g. ncdu) which are usually limited to viewing one directory at a time. I created leaves to fill that gap. Inspired by classic utilities like WinDirStat and KDirStat, it uses a 2-dimensional treemap^1 visualization to show the entire directory hierarchy with proportionally sized rectangles. It's performant enough to handle millions of files, thanks to Rust and multi-threading.…

I like treemaps for visualizing hierarchical mass and density of resource usage. I've always particularly loved GrandPerspective's dense, colorful rendering, but haven't found a similar but generalized treemap that works in reactive web views across many data visualization contexts. So I built gp-treemap, a canvas-based web component that renders GP-style treemaps with millions of nodes: https://github.com/imbue-ai/gp-treemap/ If you want to give it a spin, try something like this command to visualize hierarchical disk usage: npx -p @imbue-ai/gp-treemap gpdu…

This is an ncdu clone written in Rust that I figured others might find useful! The main things that differentiate it from ncdu are: - It's very fast. In my benchmarks it's often twice as fast. - It allows you to send files to trash rather than permanently delete. Please try it out and lmk if I can improve on anything!

I don't know Rust. Friday after work I realised that 90% of my IDE time now is just the commit/diff view — and even good IDEs feel heavy for that. So over the weekend I built a dedicated native tool for just that. Kyde is a macOS git commit + diff editor with one goal: be fast, do Git well. I'm curious whether anyone else mostly opens their IDE for git operations these days. It's open source, and there's a signed app in Releases.

I remember the days of MS-DOS's README.COM and I thought of coding something similar in C for GNU/Linux terminals. Repository: https://github.com/velorek1/fread
