dev-cleaner: Reclaim Disk Space from Developer Tools

February 13, 2026

Developer tools accumulate gigabytes of cached data over time: Xcode DerivedData, Docker images, npm/yarn/pnpm caches, Gradle builds, and more. When your Mac runs low on disk space, dev-cleaner reclaims it all in one run.

It's a single shell script covering 20+ tools — from Xcode simulators and CocoaPods to Playwright browser binaries and IDE caches — and it safely skips anything that isn't installed on your machine.

git clone https://github.com/Ted2xmen/dev-cleaner.git
cd dev-cleaner && ./dev-cleaner.sh
