💾 [WIP] Free up space from the command line

BETA NOTICE: This module is still in development and in an early stage. Be careful with deleting stuff for now!


make-space npm version Build Status

⚡️ Fast, lightweight, simple: Less than 1 MB, no dependencies[1]. make-space downloads and runs in 5 seconds!

👨‍💻 Focused on developers: Finds ways to free up space that other tools don't, such as clearing npm, Homebrew, Xcode, Yarn caches and removing unnecessary Docker images!

📦 No installation needed: You just need a newer version of npm. Then you can just type npx make-space!

How to use

$ npx make-space
Why use npx?
  • Just one command which is cool!
  • With npx, you don't have to install the tool, saving you more space.
  • Whenever you execute it, you get the newest version.
  • The npx binary is included with npm 5.2 and above.
  • You can also use a normal npm install or install make-space with yarn:
    $ npm install -g make-space
    $ make-space
    or
    $ yarn add --global make-space
    $ make-space
