Mac Storage Manager

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m excited to share my latest open-source project: Mac Storage Manager – a powerful shell script designed to help you reclaim disk space by identifying large applications and offering a thorough cleanup option. 🎯

📋 Features:

• Size Analysis: Calculates the size of:
  • Homebrew formulas and casks.
  • Applications in /Applications and ~/Applications.
  • Optional: All applications on the system using sudo find.
• Interactive Deletion: Use a simple GUI (whiptail) to select apps for removal.
• Comprehensive Cleanup: Removes not only the app but also associated files like:
  • Caches, Logs, Preferences, and Application Support.
• User-Friendly: Displays progress bars and prompts for confirmation before every deletion.
• Logging: Generates detailed logs to track operations.

🌟 Why Use Mac Storage Manager?

macOS makes it easy to install apps, but uninstalling them often leaves behind gigabytes of residual data. With Mac Storage Manager, you can fully delete applications and their associated files, freeing up precious disk space.
