Quickly generate permissions in numerical and symbolic formats. All options included (recursive, sticky, etc). Ready to copy paste to your terminal in seconds.

Chmod means 'change mode' and it changes file or directory mode bits (the way a file can be accessed). You can use chmod in the command line to change file or directory permissions on unix or unix-like systems such as linux or BSD. You can change permissions using alphanumeric characters (a+rwx) or with octal numbers (777). Each file on a system has a set of permissions associated with it, meaning which users have access and what type of access they have. File access, meaning permissions, can be represented alphanumerically (using symbols like r for read, w for write and x for execute) or using octal numeric values (755 for example). Setuid and setgid (short for 'set user ID upon execution'…from chmodcommand.com

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.
