## What's taking your hard disk space?

The easiest open source app you will ever use to detect huge files. Built with Rust + React (Tauri).

Squirreldisk is an open source alternative to softwares like: WinDirStat, WizTree, TreeSize and DaisyDisk.

Some features:

- Fast scan and deep directory scanning
- Disk scanning or pick a directory
- External disks real-time detection
- A sunburst chart to quickly visualize the disk usage
- Drag and drop: collect all items to be deleted
- Right click on a folder/file to open the file explorer
- Cross-Platform MacOS, Windows, Linux
- Auto-updater: get notified when there is a new update (only on app launch - no notification spamming thanks)

## Installation

Please note that the current version is not 100% stable yet, and you may encounter bugs.

### Windows

1. Download the installer from the [release page](https://github.com/adileo/squirreldisk/releases)
2. The binary is not signed so Windows could open a popup window warning you that the file is unsecure, just click on "More Information" > "Run Anyway"

[Why the binary isn't Codesigned and marked as unsafe?](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19330062)

### Ubuntu

1. Download the .deb package from the [release page](https://github.com/adileo/squirreldisk/releases)
2. Install

### MacOS

1. Download the .dmg from the [release page](https://github.com/adileo/squirreldisk/releases)
2. Install the app from the .dmg
3. First time you open the App: `Right click > Open` once (it won't run, since the binaries are not signed an alert will appear), then do it again `Right click > Open` to bypass the issue, it won't happen again after the first time.

## Disclaimer

This app was a project from 2 years ago built in Electron in 2 days, I decided to port it to Tauri to achieve better performances and to make it Open Source. Yay.

The code is still spaghetti and needs a lot of refactoring.
