⚙️ How It Works

• Windows: Uses GetLogicalDrives and GetDiskFreeSpaceExW through direct syscalls for optimal performance.
• Linux/macOS: Uses statfs and parses /proc/mounts or mount command output to find mounted volumes.

🧩 Planned Features

• Real-time filesystem event monitoring and interface updates
• Exportable reports in various formats (JSON, CSV, HTML)
• Comprehensive file management capabilities (deletion, renaming, creation operations)
• Sort directories by usage, free space, etc. (already done for drives)
• Customizable interface aesthetics with theme support
