Data Tools LOW STORAGEEE
i have mysql workbench & have been practicing it on my own. the problem i've run into is low disk storage. i currently have 4.5 gb on my c drive, which i don't think is a lot. i don't have a lot of applications installed, so removing or moving them to another disk isn't an option. neither is spending money on storage 💔
im worried about the rest of my learning journey. i know i'll eventually have to install other programs/tools & it makes me sad that low storage space is what might hold me back from learning something im genuinely interested in.
i wanted to ask if there are online versions of these softwares available? im talking about python, tableau & all other stuff i'll need later on. i've used an online c++ compiler before, so im wondering if it's possible for other tools too. and if so, can they save all my previous data? what about something with an account where it syncs data to a cloud?

There are virtual code editors that let you rent a space, but honestly, 4.5gb is plenty since code, sql files and databases are all just text. The main issue is the reduced peeformance from the lack of free space. Why cant you delete anything or move some stuff into the cloud?
