Usage

CLI

The simplest way to use ascii-file-tree is to just run it with npx. It will output a tree representing your current working directory.

npx ascii-file-tree

Alternatively install it globally, so npx doesn't have to download it everytime.

yarn global add ascii-file-tree
# or
npm install ascii-file-tree --global
# then run it with just
ascii-file-tree

There are a few options you can pass to the CLI.
