npkl: Node Package Killer
A handy tool to identify and remove node_modules directories. Written in Rust for blazing fast performance.
This utility recursively searches for node_modules directories from the point it's launched, presents a menu to review, select, and delete the ones you don't need to free up space.
Features
- Recursively search for node_modules directories.
- Review the path and size of each found directory.
- Selectively delete unwanted node_modules directories with a simple interface.
