# jnc clean

> Clean workspace environments and caches.

# jnc clean

Removes environment directories and caches. When run without a subcommand, it cleans the `.jnc` folder of the current workspace, removing all installed environments. Use the `cache` subcommand to clean the global package cache.

## Usage

```bash theme={null}
jnc clean [OPTIONS]
jnc clean cache [CACHE_OPTIONS]
```
