Top 6 Go File Handling Projects

  • gdu

    Fast disk usage analyzer with console interface written in Go

    • Project mention: Go: What We Got Right, What We Got Wrong | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-04

    Not sure these are really popular, but I cannot resist advertising a few utilities written in Go that I regularly use in my daily workflow:

    - gdu: a NCDU clone, much faster on SSD mounts [1]

    - duf: a `df` clone with a nicer interface [2]

    - massren: a `vidir` clone (simpler to use but with fewer options) [3]

    - gotop: a `top` clone [4]

    - micro: a nice TUI editor [5]

    Building this kind of tools in Go makes sense, as the executables are statically compiled and are thus easy to install on remote servers.
