I just wanted to give a suggestion for when somebody is asking for information and you need to show the content of a directory. The output of ls isn’t much helpful for troubleshooting, as it just shows a list of filenames in a single line.
Anyway, the d at the beginning means that is a directory. The others are the permissions to read, write, and execute (for files, or search for directories. for directories) the owner, its group, and everybody else has.
