Space walkthrough: find what's filling your disk
This 32-second walkthrough follows Space in FavTray, a Mac menu bar app for developers, one step at a time. Scan the disk, see what is big, and hand it off to the app that owns it. Pro. The scan streams in, the Map tab shows a treemap you can drill into, and Cleanup groups items by what clearing them costs, caches that rebuild versus work that took real time. Big files lists the largest files with evidence, and every row offers Reveal in Finder, Copy path or Open app, with no delete button.
