rskill is a clone of npkill, written in Rust for study purposes. It allows you to quickly find and delete node_modules directories to free up disk space. While it tries to follow the same CLI API as npkill, it does not implement all of it's features. User discretion is advised when deleting directories.
Features
- 🚀 Fast: Slightly faster than the original
npkill(though not streamed directly to the terminal and some features are missing such as automatic updates, bg color customization etc.). - 🎯 Same CLI API: Supports the same command-line flags as
npkillfor familiarity. - 🛠 Study Project: Written in Rust as a learning exercise.
