shiyu

Shiyu is an independent software publisher whose work is distributed publicly through the GitHub profile DrizzleTime, reflecting the open and community-oriented development approach typical of individual developers and small teams. The publisher's catalog currently consists of one product, Skiff, a local cross-platform disk cleanup utility designed to help users reclaim storage space safely and systematically. Skiff focuses on inspecting several common categories of space-consuming data before deletion takes place, including system and application caches, installed applications, duplicate files, and large files that may have accumulated unnoticed over time. By reviewing these items in advance rather than deleting them automatically, the tool supports a cautious workflow in which users remain in control of what is ultimately removed from their systems. Typical use cases include routine maintenance of personal computers, freeing up disk capacity on machines with limited storage, identifying redundant copies of documents or media, and locating oversized files that are difficult to find through standard file management tools. Because Skiff is built as a cross-platform application, it is intended to serve users across different desktop operating systems with a consistent experience, and its local operation means that file inspection happens on the user's own machine without reliance on external services. Hosting the project on GitHub also allows interested users to follow development, report issues, and potentially contribute improvements. Overall, shiyu's product range, though currently focused on a single utility, addresses a practical and widely encountered problem in personal computing: keeping local storage organized, efficient, and free of unnecessary clutter.
