40 dollars just a clean up app seemed too much for me so I decided to make my own.
Today was just scaffolding. Electron app, main.js for the app lifecycle, a renderer.js for the UI side, and a scanners/folder where each feature gets its own file systemJunk.js, largeFiles.js, memory.js, that kind of thing. I’m also splitting out a lib/ folder for pure logic with zero Electron/fs dependencies, specifically so I can unit test it without spinning up a whole Electron window every time. Future me will thank present me for this. Probably.
No actual scanning yet. Just an app that opens a window and doesn’t crash. Big win in my eyes.

good premise dude, there aer very little cleaner apps, especially for mac which are free, and even if there are free cleaner apps, they are just spyware in diguise.
