DevCacheCleaner helps developers free up disk space by finding and cleaning cache files, build artifacts, and generated folders that grow over time on macOS.
Built for modern developer workflows, DevCacheCleaner scans common storage-heavy locations used by Xcode and other tools, then shows how much space you can recover before you delete anything. It is designed to make Mac storage cleanup simple, clear, and safe.
With DevCacheCleaner, you can:
- clean Xcode caches and DerivedData
- remove old developer cache files stored in your Home folder
- scan a selected workspace for generated folders and temporary build output
- inspect storage usage before cleanup
- choose exactly what you want to remove
- clean multiple cache categories from one simple menu bar app
DevCacheCleaner can help you identify and clean data created by tools and workflows such as:
- Xcode and DerivedData
- Swift Package Manager
- Node.js and node_modules-related generated data
- Android and Gradle caches
- Flutter and other developer tool caches
The app focuses on generated and disposable files, not your source code. Many cleaned files can be recreated later by your tools when needed.
Why developers use DevCacheCleaner:
- recover valuable disk space on smaller SSDs
- keep development environments lighter and easier to manage
- clean project-specific workspace caches without hunting through folders manually
- get a fast overview of large cache categories in one place
DevCacheCleaner also includes:
- workspace path selection in Settings
- Launch at Startup support
- a built-in Help screen
- a lightweight menu bar experience designed for quick maintenance
DevCacheCleaner requires access to your Home folder to scan supported cache locations. Workspace access is optional and only applies to the folder you choose.
If you want a developer cache cleaner for macOS that helps you clean Xcode caches, inspect storage usage, and manage workspace cleanup more easily, DevCacheCleaner gives you a focused and practical tool for the job.
