Storage Usage Tracker
The File Size Tracker is a simple Streamlit app that provides details for the sizes of all files and folders inside a specified directory. With this app, you can quickly get an overview of the space occupied by different files and subdirectories in a specific folder.
I went ahead and built this simple web app as the detail view in Windows File Explorer kinda sucks 😣
