GParted
Features
GParted is a powerful and widely used Linux partition editor. It allows you to create, resize, move, delete, and format Linux partitions. It supports a wide range of Linux filesystems and can even handle tasks like resizing partitions with data on them (though always back up your data first!).
Installation
GParted is usually pre-installed in Ubuntu. If not, you can install it by opening a terminal and running: sudo apt install gparted

Linux Core Utilities commands - GNU Core Utilities command-line interface programs
This list should really only include standard universal commands that come with GNU Core Utilities.
- tac
This should really only include standard universal commands that come with all Linux distributions adhering to the Single UNIX Specification.
Really this is “Unix programs”, since there are no commands in Unix, they are programs except for shell builtins.
Unix command-line interface programs and shell builtins:
Unix user environment commands:
[[env]]
Unix text processing commands:
[[alias (command) ]] | [[ alias]]
Note: Networking is not part of SUS
Unix network utility commands:
Unix software development commands: Note: There are a huge number of Linux software development tools / Unix software development tools; this list should be restricted to ones that are standardized as part of Unix, i.e., those marked SD, CD], or FD (http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/help/codes.html) within the Unix/POSIX specifications
