    I wanted to clean old temporary files and caches from my macOS with a script instead of using a shady paid app, so I created a simple script for that. Pull requests are very welcome for other unused files to clean up storage space!

    Instead of a traditional command-style CLI, it runs as a TUI in the terminal, allowing users to inspect cleanup targets before proceeding. On my macOS machines, caches and app data often take up more than 40% of disk usage. Manually cleaning them each time felt tedious, so I built this tool to make the process easier. While similar tools exist, I found it hard to quickly understand how items were categorized or how important each cleanup target was, so I built my own.

As Kubernetes environments grow, they often accumulate unused resources, leading to confusion, waste, and clutter.

The tool scans your Kubernetes clusters for unused or orphaned resources—including pods, services, ingresses, and secrets—and removes them safely. You can fully customize which resources to scan and delete, maintaining complete control over what stays and what goes. Getting…
