About Kondo
Kondo scans your projects and removes folders such as node_modules, target and build to free disk space. It recognises more than 20 project types, including Cargo, Node, Gradle, Maven, Python, Unity, Unreal Engine, Zig, .NET and Terraform.
It comes as a command-line program and a separate graphical interface. The CLI installs through winget, Homebrew, MacPorts or Arch Linux, and binaries are on the releases page. It is essentially rm -rf with a prompt, so keep backups.
