Crystal Clear

A fast, safe system cleaner. Works on macOS, Linux, and Windows.

Why

I'm not paying $40/year for CleanMyMac. Neither should you. Especially if you're an engineer.

Install

cargo install --path .

Or download from Releases.

Usage

crystal

Navigate with keyboard, select items with Space, clean with c.

Key	Action

What It Cleans

• System Junk - Caches, logs, temporary files
• Large Files - Find forgotten big files
• Duplicates - Identical files wasting space
• Old Downloads - DMGs, ZIPs, installers

Safety

• Files go to Trash, never permanently deleted
• System directories are protected
• Your documents and data are never touched

Building
