DevMapProduct · Storage
Know where project space goes.
Storage measures your projects, separates source from git and generated folders, and never deletes from this screen.
The capture is from a small sample workspace. The volume figures shown belong to the Mac it was captured on.
What it measures
Measured, not guessed.
Projects only
The headline figure covers discovered projects, and it is labelled as not your whole disk. Whole-volume use is shown separately.
Where it goes
A breakdown by kind, such as source and git, and tables of the largest projects with their biggest top-level entries, and the largest files.
Regenerable folders
Git-ignored build, dependency and cache folders are measured and flagged. The figure is their size, not a promise of space freed, and nothing is deleted from here.
On your Mac
What DevMap stores, and what it sends.
Stated plainly, so you can judge it.
- Scan results, undo history, action log
- Held in memory while DevMap runs. Not written to disk.
- Between launches
- Small files in
~/Library/Application Support/DevMap(the folders you chose, your preferences, integration metadata, and the Insight figures and history you create), plus Keychain items for your sign-in session and any connected integration. Scan results, undo history and the action log are not kept. - Network
- None unless you connect the optional GitHub or GitLab integration, which is experimental and has only been tested against simulated services.
- Backend
- In the desktop app, a private socket readable only by your user. No network port is opened.
