Devlog #1 — INTRO & Scaffold and drive scanner

HEY PEOPLE, your days of managing storage are over with SIFT

What I built now -

  • Project structure with a virtual environment and Git repo
  • Central config file with folders Sift will never touch (VERRY IMP)
  • SQLite database with a table that stores every file’s size and dates
  • A scanner that walks a folder, skips system folders and half-downloaded
    files, and saves everything to the database
  • A command that prints the 10 biggest files, plus a first automated test

What I learned:

  1. How os.walk works and how to make it skip folders
  2. Why SQL should use placeholders
  3. Why try/execute is important

Problems I hit:
I hit various small syntax and defination problems in almost every file nothing major

Next: a journal/log that records every change so any action can be undone.
