List Directory Files is a Python-based command-line tool which automates the generation of a JSON file listing the contents of a specified directory, streamlining the cataloging process.

This project is aimed at simplifying the process of cataloging and documenting the contents of a directory by automating the task of listing its files.

The primary motivation behind this project is to mitigate the risk of human error when composing an email or message that includes a list of files from a designated directory. Consider a scenario where you receive a list of 100 photos, and you're required to select only 20 of them for printing. In such cases, you might create a dedicated folder for the chosen 20 photos to reduce the chances of making mistakes when communicating your selection. This program effectively aids in achieving this goal, ensuring greater accuracy and efficiency in file selection and communication.
