Room Service
Built this after repeatedly running into “Disk is full” on macOS with no clear explanation. Started as a cleanup tool for dev environments (Xcode, Docker, node_modules), but the harder problem turned out to be understanding what’s actually taking space. macOS groups a lot of this into “System Data”, which isn’t very actionable. Recently, local AI tools made this worse. Model files and caches (Ollama, Hugging Face, Whisper, etc.) grow silently and are spread across different locations. The goal is to make disk usage more transparent before deciding what to remove. Would appreciate feedback,…

What it does
Room Service helps developers understand what is actually filling their Mac, then clean it with more confidence. From Xcode build data and package caches to Docker, generated folders, app leftovers, duplicates, and privacy traces, it turns scattered disk clutter into a workflow you can inspect, review, and act on without losing control.
Room Service is a native Mac cleanup and maintenance app for developer-heavy machines. Clean Xcode junk, Docker data, node_modules, Python environments, app leftovers, startup items, duplicates, and privacy traces with more control.
From repository breakdowns and smarter review flows to application cleanup and keyboard-first navigation, Room Service brings the main maintenance workflows into one focused desktop app. Room Service provides a local encrypted workspace for API keys, tokens, certificates, private notes, and other sensitive developer assets. Import existing .env and .p8 files, protect them with Touch ID, auto-lock, and recovery support. Recipes lets you turn recurring cleanup tasks into reusable routines you can schedule, export, and share, with approvals, history, and control in one dedicated workspace. Room Service detects long-running project build and watch tools using sustained CPU or RAM, even when…from roomservices.pro

I've built a macOS app for developers to clean their dev machines2024 · apps.apple.com · ▲29Hi there! During last time we (me and my friend) were building an app to clean various stuff after Xcode. I was fed up as a developer that Apple related things load my drive and I need hundreds of gigabytes just to do my job. It's live now on Mac App Store and we'll be glad to hear your feedback: https://apps.apple.com/ua/app/cleano/id6469460523 Features - Simulators cleanup. It's a correct cleanup via 'simctl' so you even don't need to restart Xcode for it to take effect - SPM repos cache. Swift PM stores github repos for packages separately and never removes…

Mac Cleanup GoJan 2026 · github.com · ▲100Instead 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. Repository: https://github.com/2ykwang/mac-cleanup-go Feedback is welcome.

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
