spacefree is live now. i built it because my C drive kept filling up and i could not see why.
if you use wsl2 or docker desktop, everything lives inside a virtual disk file (ext4.vhdx or docker_data.vhdx). it grows on its own but never shrinks, so deleting stuff inside does not give you space back on windows. the gigabytes are still there, just hidden.
what spacefree does
- finds and compacts the wsl and docker virtual disks
- scans old node_modules, build folders, package caches and ide caches
- labels everything before you touch it, safe to delete or rebuildable
- deletions go to the recycle bin by default and every action is logged
everything runs locally, nothing is uploaded. windows only for now, 7 day free trial, no card needed.
what it looks like
would love feedback, especially on what else you would want it to scan. it is early, so tell me what breaks.
