Disk Usage Analyzer - Boabab

Image

Did you know that Linux has a great tool for analyzing and figuring out where all your hard drive data is residing?

"Disk Usage Analyzer" is perfect for finding out which apps and files are eating up all your disk space.

Do you have large downloads you forgot about? Are 5 different web browsers caching files and taking up Gigs and Gigs space?

Installing "Disk Usage" can be tricky because the actual filename for "Disk Usage" is "Baobab."

Baobabs are those cool African trees in the picture's background. The developers probably named it this because baobab uses a ring chart that looks like the top of a Baobab tree, but don't quote us on that. That's just s speculation.

Regardless, if "Disk Usage" (aka baobab) isn't already install on your system by default, you can install "Disk Usage" like so . .

On Debian based distros:

sudo apt install baobab

On Arch based distros:

pacman -S baobab

. . . or install baobab however your system installs packages
