Description

TrimyMac is a native macOS cleaner built in Swift. It scans app caches, logs, Xcode and developer-tool waste, large files, and exact duplicates locally—without telemetry or an account. Every cleanup is reviewed first, and files can move to a reversible Safe Area. The free tier includes all core tools with up to 500 MB of cleanup; Pro unlocks unlimited cleanup.

Could you build this?

Partial A real macOS system cleaner requires deep knowledge of macOS file system permissions, Full Disk Access (TCC), POSIX file APIs, and precise system file whitelisting to avoid bricking machines.

What it would actually take: Requires native Swift/Objective-C development with privileged helper tools, deep macOS internals knowledge (handling SIP, TCC grants, ~/Library caches, LaunchDaemons, and Xcode derived data safely), and robust hash-based duplicate detection algorithms.
