Basic File System

A simple file system simulation in C++ designed to demonstrate the core concepts of how files and directories are managed in a typical operating system. This project is ideal for beginners learning about data structures, file handling, and operating system fundamentals.

🧠 Features

• Create files and folders
• Delete files and folders
• Display file structure in hierarchical format
• Basic command simulation (like mkdir, touch, ls)
• Memory management using blocks

📁 Project Structure
