MangoDisk

Project Overview

MangoDisk is a safety-first, open-source disk cleaner and system optimizer for macOS and Windows. It helps users safely reclaim disk space by intelligently scanning and cleaning system caches, application caches, browser data, developer tool caches, container caches, project build artifacts, and AI models. It also integrates disk space analysis, duplicate file finding, application uninstallation, and startup item management.

Key Features

• Deep Cleanup: One-click scan and clean of cleanable content scattered across system, applications, developer tools, and local projects. Includes system and user caches, application caches, browser data, developer tools and Xcode caches, container caches, project build artifacts, AI models, and more
• Large File Cleanup: Quickly identify and list the largest files, with filtering by type and size
• Duplicate File Cleanup: Find exact duplicates by content rather than file names, with smart selection to keep at least one copy per group
• Disk Space Analysis: Visualize storage usage with a treemap and list, drilling down to locate the largest folders and files
• Application Uninstall and Cleanup: Uninstall applications together with related caches, settings, and leftover files. MangoDisk separates rebuildable content from data that may include personal files and warns when an app is running or system-protected
• Startup Item Management: Disable unnecessary startup programs to reduce delays and background resource usage
• System Optimization: Optimize settings that affect performance, privacy, and everyday usability in one place, with one-click presets and fine-grained control
• Operation History: Track what each cleanup or system change did and how it turned out

Target Audience

• macOS and Windows users who want to safely and efficiently clean disk space and optimize system performance
• Developers and designers who need to manage large files and duplicates
• Developers who need to clean caches and build artifacts from their tools

Quick Start

1. macOS (recommended): Install via Homebrew brew install --cask harry0703/tap/mangodisk
2. Windows: Install via PowerShell irm "https://get.mangodisk.app" | iex
3. Alternatively, download from the MangoDisk website or GitHub Releases
4. macOS: Open the DMG and drag MangoDisk into the Applications folder
5. Windows: Run the Windows installer and follow the prompts
6. Launch the app and start scanning and cleaning

Core Advantages

• Safety-first: Read-only scanning by default, preview and confirm operations before they are applied, with results saved to Operation History
• Broad coverage: Deep scanning of 20+ categories including system, apps, dev tools, browsers, containers, and AI models
• All-in-one management: Large files, duplicates, app uninstallation, startup items, and system settings in one place
• Open and transparent: Complete rule library and revision history are publicly available
• Modern tech stack: Built with Tauri 2 and Rust for excellent performance

System Requirements

• OS: macOS Monterey 12.5 or later, 64-bit Windows 10 or later
• Architectures: Not explicitly listed

Notes

• Cleanup, permanent deletion, and uninstall operations may not be reversible. Review selected content and keep reliable backups
• Before changing startup items or system settings, make sure you understand what they control
• Some system optimizations may affect security, privacy, battery life, or update behavior
