Hey Product Hunt, I'm Shivam, the maker of Diskfern.

I've been using Macs for several years, and one problem I've faced repeatedly is running out of storage without really knowing where it went.

Over the years, I've tried different Mac storage and cleanup apps. Some offer useful features but come with yearly subscriptions. Personally, I never liked the idea of paying every year just to manage storage on my own Mac.

I also tried free alternatives, but most had limited visualizations and didn't really help me understand what I was looking at or what I could safely remove.

This became an even bigger problem while working on multiple client projects with my teammates. As developers, we constantly switch between projects, build apps, install dependencies and generate build files. Over time, caches, DerivedData, build folders and old project files take up a surprising amount of space.

And when a build starts failing because of storage or outdated build artifacts, we often end up manually finding and clearing folders, then running the build again. It wastes time that we could spend actually building things.

That's what pushed me to build Diskfern.

I wanted one tool that could help me understand my Mac's storage, find unnecessary files and make cleanup less of a guessing game.

Here's what you can do with it:

Explore your storage visually. Switch between Treemap, Sunburst and List views to understand how your disk space is being used.
Find files worth reviewing. Diskfern automatically groups detected cleanup candidates into three tiers. Tier A highlights common cache and temporary build folders that are generally safe to remove. Other tiers help you review files that may need more attention before deleting.
Find developer clutter. Discover old project files, build artifacts, caches and folders such as DerivedData that quietly consume storage.
Search naturally with Finder. Instead of digging through folders or struggling with traditional search, type queries like "PDFs from last week" or "my salary slips" and quickly find matching files. You can also search for videos and other file types.

You can download Diskfern and use its core features for free, including scanning, visualizing and exploring your storage. You don't need to purchase Pro just to understand what's taking up space.

I'm building Diskfern because I wanted this kind of tool for myself and other Mac users, especially developers who work across multiple projects.

I'd genuinely love to hear from you. How do you currently manage storage on your Mac? Do you also end up manually clearing caches and old build files? And what would make Diskfern more useful in your daily workflow?
