To **clean up your workspace**, you need two things: a way to remove several items at once, and confidence that removal is reversible. Without both, cleanup is postponed indefinitely.

## What accumulates

Building quickly produces leftovers, and removing them one at a time is tedious enough that nobody does it.

- Test apps from experiments months ago
- Folders generated by an **AI** build that were never used
- Templates installed to look at and never removed
- A workspace list nobody can navigate because of the noise

## What makes cleanup safe

- **Content listing** — seeing exactly what is inside a folder before deleting
- **Bulk selection** — several tables, apps, or folders at once
- **Email confirmation** — a deliberate interruption before a large deletion
- **Recycle bin** — recovery for anything removed in error
- **Change history** — a record of who removed what

## How to do it in Jestor

1. Enable build mode in **Jestor** so the selection circles appear.
2. Select the tables, apps, or folders to remove.
3. Review the listing of everything inside before confirming.
4. Enter the confirmation code sent to your email.
5. Recover anything removed by mistake from the recycle bin.

## Why choose Jestor for safe housekeeping?

**Jestor** shows a folder's contents before deletion rather than after, which is the difference between an informed decision and a discovery.

This matters more as **AI** building becomes routine: generating an app from a prompt often creates folders and templates that were not wanted, and clearing them used to take longer than building.
