Why This Project?

As I started using Linux, I found myself frequently needing to understand and set file permissions using the chmod command. However, remembering all the different permission combinations (read, write, execute for user, group, and others) was challenging. This calculator was created to:

  • Visualize the relationship between numeric (octal) and symbolic permission representations
  • Help users understand how file permissions work in Linux
  • Provide an easy way to calculate the correct chmod values
  • Serve as a learning tool for understanding Linux file permissions

Getting Started

First, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
# or
bun dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

This project uses next/font to automatically optimize and load Geist, a new font family for Vercel.
