In their own words
dust
dust is a free Rust command-line tool for finding where disk space is used. It lays out large files and subdirectories as a tree, with colored bars showing disk usage and hierarchy. Filters can include or exclude files using regular expressions and set a minimum file size. Output options let you show files or directories, group by file type, and choose size units. A screen-reader option removes bars and symbols and adds a depth-level column. dust runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows, with release packages listed for each, including architecture-specific builds. The README lists installation routes including Cargo, Homebrew, DNF, Snap, mise, Pacstall, conda-forge, deb-get, x-cmd, and Scoop. The Snap package can access files only in /home. The project is licensed under Apache-2.0; its v1.2.6 release page displays SHA-256 checksums for downloads. GitHub Issues and Discussions are available for support.
