npmclean - A faster way to nuke your node_modules directory

Collect, sort, and obliterate node_modules folders across your machine at ludicrous speed.

npmclean is a tiny, blazing-fast utility written in Go designed to reclaim disk space from dead JavaScript projects.
It scans for node_modules in your directories and lets you delete them interactively — faster than npkill, twice as responsive, and with slick theme support.

go install github.com/riadafridishibly/npmclean@latest
