## What it is
SquirrelDisk is a cross-platform desktop application for analyzing disk usage and finding large files, built with Rust and React via Tauri. It visualizes storage with an interactive sunburst chart and lets users drag files to a collector for deletion.

## Use cases
- find large files taking up disk space
- analyze hard drive usage with a visual chart
- clean up disk space on mac or windows
- scan external usb drives for big files
- open source alternative to WinDirStat or DaisyDisk
- identify folders consuming the most storage

## When to choose
- you want a fast, free, open-source disk usage analyzer with a visual sunburst chart
- you need a cross-platform GUI tool for macOS, Windows, and Linux
- you prefer a simple one-click scan over complex CLI tools like ncdu

## When to avoid
- you need a fully stable, production-hardened tool - the app is still in alpha with known bugs
- you require signed binaries or enterprise-grade support
- you need advanced features like duplicate file finding or scheduled scans

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: experimental
- function: file-system, data-visualization, gui, developer-tools
- domain: files, desktop-applications, developer-tools, cross-platform
