## Historique du projet et usages

Baobab is GNOME's graphical Disk Usage Analyzer, packaged on Unix-like systems as a small desktop utility for scanning folders, volumes, and mounted devices.

### Historique du projet

The current Baobab repository describes the program as the GNOME Disk Usage Analyzer and its DOAP metadata classifies it as a GNOME core application written in Vala. The modern standalone source tree has public GNOME release tags beginning with the GNOME 3 era, while the package remains tied to the GNOME application release cadence.

Its release notes show steady adaptation to GNOME platform changes rather than large shifts in purpose: recent milestones include libadwaita design work in the GNOME 45 cycle, GtkColumnView and AdwDialog work in the GNOME 47 cycle, and scanning speed and memory improvements in the GNOME 49 cycle.

### Historique d'adoption

Baobab's adoption is mostly through GNOME distributions and package managers rather than a separate command-line community. Its presence in Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, Nix, MacPorts, Homebrew, and other package sets reflects its role as a standard graphical disk-inspection utility.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users launch Baobab to scan local folders, remote folders, volumes, or mounted devices and inspect directory sizes as a graphical tree or proportional visualization. It is useful when a Unix workstation needs a quick answer to what is consuming disk space without dropping into du, ncdu, or filesystem-specific tools.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

For package maintainers, Baobab is a compact example of the modern GNOME app stack: Meson build files, Vala sources, localized help, AppStream metadata, and frequent translation updates. It also gives non-GNOME package collections a user-facing storage tool that complements terminal utilities.

### Chronologie

- 2011: Standalone GNOME Baobab release tags appear in the public source repository with version 3.3.1.
- 2012: Baobab follows the GNOME 3.4 and 3.6 stable release cycles.
- 2023: GNOME 45 release notes record adoption of newer libadwaita widgets and design patterns.
- 2025: GNOME 49 release notes record scanning speed and memory-usage improvements.
- 2026: GNOME 50.0 is published with continued UI and translation maintenance.

### Related projects

- Baobab sits beside terminal disk-usage tools such as du and ncdu, and beside other GNOME core utilities. Its upstream development, translations, help, issue tracking, and release metadata are managed in GNOME infrastructure.
