## Uninstall

- `brew uninstall --cask rencal`

A regular uninstall removes the app and keeps its settings and caches.

### Deep clean (optional)

- `brew uninstall --zap --cask rencal`

`--zap` also deletes the settings, caches and other files listed in the Homebrew definition. They can include data shared with other apps and cannot be restored, and it does not guarantee that nothing is left. Back up any data you need first. To keep settings and caches, leave out `--zap`.
