&lt;h2&gt;Description&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ncdu is a disk usage analyzer with an ncurses interface. It is designed to find space hogs on a remote server where you don&#39;t have an entire graphical setup available, but it is a useful tool even on regular desktop systems. Ncdu aims to be fast, simple and easy to use, and should be able to run in any minimal POSIX-like environment with ncurses installed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;See the &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer&quot; href=&quot;https://dev.yorhel.nl/doc/ncdu2&quot;&gt;ncdu 2 release announcement&lt;/a&gt; for information about the differences between this Zig implementation (2.x) and the C version (1.x).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Requirements&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Zig 0.17&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Some sort of POSIX-like OS&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;ncurses&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;libzstd&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Install&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can use the Zig build system if you&#39;re familiar with that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There&#39;s also a handy Makefile that supports the typical targets, e.g.:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;code-snippet&quot;&gt;make
sudo make install PREFIX=/usr
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
