node_module-nuke 0.1.0

# 🚀 node_module-nuke

*The nuclear option for those pesky `node_modules` directories*

## 💥 What is this?

Are you tired of `node_modules` directories multiplying like rabbits and eating your disk space? Do you have more `node_modules` folders than actual projects? Has your SSD started crying every time you run `npm install`?

**Fear no more!** `node_module-nuke` is here to save the day (and your storage).

This blazingly fast Rust-powered tool will hunt down every single `node_modules` directory on your system and give you the power to **DELETE THEM ALL** with the satisfaction of watching your free disk space counter go *brrrrr*.

## 🎯 Why node_modules directories are the worst

- 📦 They're basically black holes that suck up disk space
- 🐌 They make your backups slower than dial-up internet
- 🔍 They hide in every corner of your filesystem like digital dust bunnies
- 💸 They cost you money in cloud storage fees
- 🤡 They contain 47,000 packages just to center a div
- 🏠 Each one could house a small family of dependencies
- 📚 They have more files than the Library of Congress
- 🌕 They're probably visible from space at this point

## ✨ Features

- ⚡ **Blazingly fast** - Written in Rust because life's too short for slow tools
- 🎯 **Surgical precision** - Only targets `node_modules` directories (your code is safe!)
- 📊 **Progress bars** - Watch your disk space come back to life in real-time
- 🏃‍♂️ **Parallel processing** - Uses all your CPU cores to maximize the carnage
- 🧪 **Dry run mode** - Preview the destruction before committing to it
- 🎨 **Pretty output** - Because even nuclear warfare should look good
- 🛡️ **Exclude paths** - Protect your production builds (if you must)

## ⚠️ Warning

This tool is nuclear. It will delete `node_modules` directories. Forever. Gone. Poof. 💨

Make sure you can recreate them with `npm install` or `yarn install` before proceeding. 

(But let's be honest, you probably should have done this ages ago.)
