dua-cli

It scans a specified directory and reports the amount of space each subdirectory and file consumes, running in parallel to make full use of SSD bandwidth. The tool can also delete unwanted data, offering a deletion workflow that is faster than a standard rm command while incorporating safeguards to avoid accidental loss. An interactive mode presents a terminal‑based user interface where users can navigate the directory tree, view size information, and trigger deletions with keyboard shortcuts.

The program is distributed as a compiled binary for many platforms and can be installed via package managers such as Homebrew, MacPorts, Scoop, WinGet, Pacman, DNF, and others, or built from source with Cargo. Configuration is optional and read from a standard OS‑specific location, allowing users to customize key bindings and other behavior.

Designed for developers, system administrators, and anyone needing a quick, detailed view of disk usage, it provides both a fast non‑interactive summary and an exploratory UI for managing space.
