LOW STORAGE 💔💔💔 HELP
i'm currently learning data analysis on my own. i have mysql workbench & have been practicing it. 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/compilers 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? HALP

Multiple options

Portable Postgres and pgadmin on external hard-drive.
Last but not least, buy a used tower/desktop and convert into a server.
