Hi everyone! 

I’ve built a tool called Folder Tree Generator by Friedx , which lets you easily generate and export folder structures as text files. It’s perfect for organizing, documenting, or analyzing directory hierarchies. 

Features:
- Generate a folder tree for any directory. 
- Preview the folder structure in the app. 
- Export the structure as a `.txt` file.

Libraries Used:
- `os` (built-in) 
- `tkinter` (built-in) 
- `ttk` (built-in) 

No external dependencies! 

How to Use:
1. Ensure Python 3.x is installed
2. Save the script with the name folder_tree_generator_by_friedx.py
3. Run the script with: 

python folder_tree_generator_by_friedx.py

4. Use the GUI to select a folder and export the tree!
