  "github_readme_excerpt": "# diskonaut\n![demo](demo.gif)\n\n## How does it work?\n\nGiven a path on your hard-drive (which could also be the root path, eg. `/`). `diskonaut` scans it and indexes its metadata to memory so that you could explore its contents (even while still scanning!).\n\nOnce completed, you can navigate through subfolders, getting a visual treemap representation of what\u0027s taking up your disk space. You can even delete files or folders and `diskonaut` will track how much space you\u0027ve freed up in this session.\n\n## Installation\n\n### Download a prebuilt binary\nIf you\u0027re using linux, you can check out the \"releases\" of this repository to download the latest prebuilt binary.\n\n### With cargo (linux / macOS / windows)\n```\ncargo install diskonaut\n```\n\n### Fedora/CentOS\n\n```\nsudo dnf install diskonaut\n```\nFor older Fedora releases and CentOS available in [COPR](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/atim/diskonaut/):\n```\nsudo dnf copr enable atim/diskonaut -y\nsudo dnf install diskonaut\n```\n\n### Arch Linux\n\nAvailable in the [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/diskonaut):\n\n```\nyay diskonaut\n```\n\n### Gentoo\n\nAvailable through the following overlay as `sys-fs/diskonaut`:\n\nhttps://github.com/telans/EBUILDS\n\n### Nix / NixOS\nAvailable in [nixpkgs](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/tools/misc/diskonaut/default.nix):\n```\n$ nix-env --install diskonaut\n$ # (Or using the attribute name, which is also diskonaut.)\n```\n\n### FreeBSD\nAvailable in [freshports](https://www.freshports.org/sysutils/diskonaut/):\n```\npkg install diskonaut\n```\n\n### macOS\nAvailable in [Homebrew](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/diskonaut)\n```\nbrew install diskonaut\n```\nAlso available in [nixpkgs](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/tools/misc/diskonaut/default.nix): see Nix section for more details.\n\n## Supported platforms\nRight now `diskonaut` supports linux, macos and windows.\n\n## Usage\nEither start `diskonaut` in the folder you want to scan, or provide it with the folder you\u0027d like to scan as ",
