Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Alex, and I'm excited to share SnapPoint with you today! The "Aha" Moment 💡 Picture this: You're setting up a new dev project, type python --version, and get a version you didn't expect. You check your PATH and find three different Python installations. One from Homebrew, one from a random tutorial you followed 2 years ago, and one you don't even remember installing. Sound familiar? 😅 That was my breaking point. After years of curl | sh tutorials, npm global installs, and "just brew install X" quick fixes, my dev machine had become a digital hoarder's paradise. GBs of orphaned cache files, ghost binaries no package manager claimed, and enough conflicts to make me question my career choices. What is SnapPoint? 🛠️ SnapPoint is an open-source system auditor and package manager "manager" that helps you: - 🔍 Hunt down every global binary and trace its origin (Homebrew, NPM, Pip, or Manual) - 👻 Ghost bust orphaned binaries that no package manager claims - ⚖️ Resolve PATH conflicts when you have multiple versions of the same tool - 🩺 Doctor your system to find broken symlinks and redundant packages Think of it as LazyVim for your entire dev machine — a meta-layer that brings sanity to the chaos. Current Status 🚀 We just hit v0.1.0 with the core discovery engine. You can scan your system right now and see exactly what's installed, where it came from, and what conflicts exist. Coming soon: - A beautiful TUI dashboard (built with Bubble Tea) - Intelligent cleanup with "recipes" for popular dev tools - Community Snap Profiles — export your setup and share it, or adopt setups from other devs I'd Love Your Feedback! 🙏 - What package managers should we support next? (Cargo, RubyGems, Pacman?) - What's your biggest system maintenance pain point? - Any interest in sharing your "System DNA" with the community? Try it out with: curl -sS https://snappoint.dev/install.sh | sh Thanks for checking it out! Happy to answer any questions 🚀

@launchstack_hq sbout the issue I’m solving. Is in the description: Picture this: You're setting up a new dev project, type python --version, and get a version you didn't expect. You check your PATH and find three different Python installations. One from Homebrew, one from a random tutorial you followed 2 years ago, and one you don't even remember installing.
