godu
Simple golang utility helping to discover large files and folders.
Open source alternative to:
godu is an interactive terminal-based disk usage analyzer written in Go. It helps you find files and folders that are taking up significant disk space.
With an intuitive ncurses-like interface, godu allows you to navigate through your filesystem using arrow keys or Vim bindings (hjkl). You can mark files and folders with the space key, and upon exiting, godu prints all marked items to stdout for further processing with tools like xargs. The tool supports size filtering to focus on files larger than a specified threshold, and you can configure ignored folders via a .goduignore file in your home directory.
