# KV Clearnup (Antigravity) 🚀
|
|
|
|
A modern, high-performance system optimizer for macOS, built with **Electron**, **React**, and **Go**.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
- **Flash Clean**: Instantly remove system caches, logs, Xcode cache, Homebrew cache, and manage Trash with a detailed inspection view.
|
|
- **App Uninstaller**: View installed applications, their sizes, and thoroughly remove them along with their associated preference files and caches.
|
|
- **Deep Clean**: Scan for large files and heavy folders.
|
|
- **Real-time Monitoring**: Track disk usage and category sizes.
|
|
- **Native Menubar Integration**: Includes a responsive, monochrome template icon that adapts to macOS light/dark modes perfectly.
|
|
- **Cross-Platform**: Runs natively with compiled Go backends on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3), Intel Macs, and Windows.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
- **Node.js** (v18+)
|
|
- **Go** (v1.20+)
|
|
- **pnpm** (preferred) or npm
|
|
- **C Compiler** (gcc/clang, via Xcode Command Line Tools on macOS)
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install Dependencies
|
|
```bash
|
|
pnpm install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Run in Development Mode
|
|
This starts the Go backend (port 36969) and the Vite/Electron frontend concurrently.
|
|
```bash
|
|
./start-go.sh
|
|
```
|
|
*Note: Do not run `pnpm run dev` directly if you want the backend to work. Use the script.*
|
|
|
|
## Building for Production
|
|
|
|
To create distributable release binaries (Universal `.dmg` for macOS, Portable `.exe` for Windows):
|
|
|
|
### 1. Build the App
|
|
```bash
|
|
# macOS Universal DMG
|
|
pnpm run build && pnpm run electron:build && npx electron-builder --mac --universal
|
|
|
|
# Windows Portable EXE
|
|
pnpm run build && pnpm run electron:build && npx electron-builder --win portable --x64
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Locate the Installer
|
|
The output files will be automatically placed in the `release/` directory:
|
|
- `release/KV Clearnup-1.0.0-universal.dmg` (macOS)
|
|
- `release/KV Clearnup 1.0.0.exe` (Windows)
|
|
|
|
## Running the App
|
|
1. **Mount the DMG**: Double-click the `.dmg` file in the `release` folder.
|
|
2. **Install**: Drag the app to your `Applications` folder.
|
|
3. **Launch**: Open "KV Clearnup" from Applications.
|
|
|
|
*Troubleshooting*: If you see "System Extension Blocked" or similar OS warnings, go to **System Settings > Privacy & Security** and allow the application.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
- **Frontend**: React, TypeScript, TailwindCSS, Framer Motion.
|
|
- **Main Process**: Electron (TypeScript).
|
|
- **Backend**: Go (Golang) for file system operations and heavy scanning.
|
|
- **Communication**: Electron uses `child_process` to spawn the Go binary. Frontend communicates with backend via HTTP (localhost:36969).
