Linux: Find Out Directory Size Command

You can use the du command in a terminal to find the size of a directory in Linux.

Example:

 
du -sh /path/to/directory

The -s flag summarizes the directory size, and -h displays the output in a “human-readable” format (i.e., in GB or MB, instead of blocks). Replace /path/to/directory with the actual path to the directory you want to check.
