ASCII Tree Generator

About ASCII Tree Generator

An ASCII Tree Generator is an online folder tree directory generator tool that helps developers and technical writers to create a visual representation of an application's folder structure.

This tool can be used by developers to create folder directory structure of the project. Documentation or technical writers can use this tool to create the project layouts.

On the other hand, normal people can use this app as a mindmap tool to display the information in a simple and concise manner and declutter their mind.

root
  folder1
    file1.txt
    file2.txt
  folder2
    subfolder1
      file3.txt
            

root
  ├── folder1
  │   ├── file1.txt
  │   └── file2.txt
  └── folder2
      └── subfolder1
        └── file3.txt
            

How to Use the ASCII Tree Generator?

1. Input

• Type your folder structure using '#' symbols to represent folder hierarchy
• Each level of subfolders should contain an additional '#' symbol
• For example:

  Root
  #Folder 1
  ##Subfolder 1
  ###Subfolder 1.1
  ##Subfolder 2
  ###Subfolder 2.1
  #Folder 2
  ##Subfolder 1
  ###Subfolder 1.1
  ###Subfolder 1.2
  #Public 
  ##assets
  #README.md
          

• The above input will generate the following ASCII tree:

  Root
  ├── Folder 1
  │   ├── Subfolder 1
  │   │   └── Subfolder 1.1
  │   ├── Subfolder 2
  │   │   └── Subfolder 2.1
  ├── Folder 2
  │   ├── Subfolder 1
  │   │   └── Subfolder 1.1
  │   │   └── Subfolder 1.2
  ├── Public
  │   └── assets
  └── README.md
