Changelog

What's new in Roomy for macOS.

v1.1.0

May 29, 2026 · macOS 13+ · Apple Silicon & Intel

Two-phase scan: project walk, then a dedicated system-cache pass that runs even when your scan root is a single projects folder.
New Settings section — System caches — with per-category toggles for Xcode, global package caches, global CLI packages, Python/Conda, Homebrew, and Docker.
System findings appear as pinned groups at the top of the project list (Xcode & iOS tooling, Global package caches, Docker, and more).
Results overview shows a separate system-cache total alongside project recoverable space.

Xcode & iOS tooling — DerivedData, iOS Device Support, Xcode Archives, iOS Simulator data.
Global package caches — npm, pip, yarn, pnpm, NuGet, Poetry, and uv download caches.
Global CLI packages — globally installed npm and yarn node_modules trees.
Python / Conda — unused Conda packages and tarballs, dormant conda environments, pyenv versions, pip packages in venvs not listed in requirements.txt.
Homebrew — download cache and logs.
Docker — unused images, volumes, and build cache (via docker CLI).

Three safety tiers on every artifact: Safe, Review, and Irreversible.
Irreversible items (Xcode Archives, Docker volumes with data) are never bulk-selected and show extra warnings in review.
Docker cleanup via docker rmi, docker volume rm, and docker builder prune.
Conda cleanup via conda clean and conda env remove.
Each artifact includes a plain-language explanation and restore hint in the detail view.

.NET / NuGet added as a supported ecosystem for global package cache scanning.
Scan persistence bumped to v2 schema with backward-compatible decode of v1 snapshots.
Updated documentation covering system caches, safety tiers, and CLI deletion behavior.

May 20, 2026 · Initial public release

Full filesystem scan for regenerable developer artifacts across Node.js, Python, Rust, Ruby, Go, Java, and Swift projects.
Project activity classification using git history and file modification times: Active, Recent, Inactive, Dormant.
Results overview with total reclaimable space, ecosystem breakdown, and project-age distribution.
Selection review workflow with grouped artifacts and before/after storage impact preview.
Safe deletion pipeline that moves items to Trash via NSWorkspace.recycle() by default.

Scan large developer directories and stream findings live as artifacts are discovered.
Review projects in one list and prioritize old, dormant repositories first.
Deselect any project or artifact before deletion.
Run a full cleanup session and view a detailed reclaimed-space summary.
Configure scan exclusions and reuse settings across sessions.
