GrandPerspective is a small utility application for macOS that graphically shows the disk usage within a file system.It can help you to manage your disk, as you can easily spot which files and folders take up the most space.It uses a so called tree map for visualisation. Each file is shown as a rectangle with an area proportional to the file's size.Files in the same folder appear together, but their placement is otherwise arbitrary.
Download GrandPerspective from Sourceforge for free or from the App Store for $2.99.You'll get the same app either way.
So what's the difference?When you get it from the App Store you know that it has passed Apple's review and quality control, you receive automatic updates, you help cover distribution costs and you support further development.
News
For the historians amongst you, there are even records of older news.
Features

GrandPerspective has been released as Open Source under the GNU General Public License.The official release files are available from the GrandPerspective download area at SourceForge.The latest release (Version 2.5.2) consists of two files:
System requirements

If you have an older system, you need to download an older version of GrandPerspective: Miss popularity game free download.
App Store
GrandPerspective is also distributed via the App Store as requested by several users.This exposes the app to a wider audience, including some who will only install software distributed via the App Store.I charge a small fee of $2.99 for the app when it is downloaded from there to cover the required developer program membership and other development costs.
Note: Updates here lag the releases available via SourceForge by a few weeks.Should SourceForge users find bugs in the new release, these will be fixed before making the (updated) application available on the App Store.

Localization
GrandPerspective is fully internationalized. This means that it can be localized to support languages other than English.I can manage the translation into Dutch, but for any other language, I will need your help.You can help to complete existing localizations, which is relatively little effort, or provide an entirely new localiation, which is significantly more work.The table below summarizes the status of currently available localizations.
So, hereby a call for volunteers.If you want to help out with making GrandPerspective available in your mother tongue, or any other language you speak fluently, find out how you can help.

GrandPerspective is certainly not the first of its kind. Tree maps have been around for a while, and their application to file systems is not novel either. A few other disk usage visualisation tools that employ tree maps are:
So, why GrandPerspective?Well, as you may have guessed it's a fun little coding project and I needed to pick something to code on my new Mac Mini.Having said that, it does have a few things going for it.Firstly, GrandPerspective is developed specifically for macOS, which narrows the immediate competition down to Disk Inventory X, as far as I'm aware.Secondly, GrandPerspective has its own way of visualising directory trees.The layout algorithm that is used is simple and effective, but novel to the best of my knowledge.Also, the file rectangles are drawn to be as clear and unobtrusive as possible. Whether you like it or not is a matter of taste, but you've got a choice.Thirdly, GrandPerspective will intentionally be kept as basic as possible.It should do one thing only, and do it well. That means it is a lean and mean application.GrandPerspective's memory requirements and the size it occupies on disk are pretty minimal.For those concerned about disk space, the latter must count for something, right?Finally, it has a cute logo that will enhance anyone's Dock. ;-)

Still here? Well, then you might also be interested in checking out other stuff I have made:
New videos
Aerial now includes 20 extra videos, kindly shared by Joshua Michaels & Hal Bergman:
If you enjoy these, please consider supporting them by checking the video packs they have created especially for Aerial on their website.
And by the way.
There's a brand new user interface, that makes it a lot easier to find and enjoy the videos. It's even resizable!
No more filling up your disk.
I heard you, Aerial finally includes better cache management. You can now set a limit so Aerial won't ever use more space than you want. And it can also periodically replace videos in your cache, say after a week, so things stay fresh. (It's still not perfect especially for those of you who are upgrading from 1.9.X, this will be improved a lot soon!).
You can still opt to manually download your videos, or simply grab them all. All up to you. If you allow automatic downloads, you can even specify a list of trusted WiFi networks!
On rotation, favorites, filters.
There's now an 'On rotation' feature, so you can quickly switch from watching space videos, to say, your favorites:
There are many other new options, including filters to control vibrance (to adjust the colors of your non-HDR videos and make them pop a bit more), sunset and sunrise videos appearing at appropriate time, and more!
And yes, this fancy website!Best App To Clean Mac
But let's be clear, at the core, nothing changed. Aerial is still open source and developed on GitHub. Even this site is on GitHub, check it out here if you are curious!
