About
Renders a folder as a branching diagram. The shape of a project becomes visible at a glance. It can cap the depth, filter by pattern and print sizes.
Install it
pkg install tree
Run this inside Termux. If the package is already present, pkg will say so and
do nothing.

tree -L 2 Limit the diagram to two levels. A large project will not flood the screen. tree -a Include hidden dotfiles and folders in the output. tree -h Append a human-readable size to each entry. tree -d Directories only. You get a map of the folder skeleton. tree -I "node_modules|.git" Exclude any path matching the patterns. Keeps the diagram focused. tree -P "*.ts" Print only entries matching the pattern. Parent folders still appear. Worked example
Run tree -L 1 and this is what you should see.
$ tree -L 1
