As a sighted person I use software tools to visualize the space used on my disk into space-filling maps where I can quickly see where I’m using disk-space. It solves the problem of having folders of a lot of tiny files taking up space, or huge files you didn’t know existed in some directory you forgot.

I would like to learn how people with vision impairments handle this task. It would be great then to extend existing tooling to serve people with vision impairments as effectively as sighted people benefit from the tool.
