Body Markdown supports headings, lists, emphasis, links, quotes, code, and tables. Raw HTML and inline Markdown images are not rendered; add imagery through the attributed screenshot fields. Top-level body headings are demoted so the app name remains the page title.
+### Writing the description
+
+The description is the reason to visit the page, so it carries facts a reader cannot get from the summary. Write it as a careful Mac editor who has used the app: plain, exact and unexcited. Aim for 150 to 300 words. On any record verified on or after 2026-11-08, `src/lib/writing.ts` rejects the mechanical failures listed below; older records keep loading until they are rewritten and re-verified.
+
+- **Open with the job.** The first sentence says what the app does and what you do with it: what you open, press or type, and what you get back. Do not open with "{App} is a …", "provides" or "offers", or with a category label.
+- **Shape it to the app.** A sentence or two on the job, a list when there are four or more parallel features, then whatever this app needs: setup, limits, a comparison. Do not end every description on requirements or the license.
+- **Person and tense.** The app is third person, present tense ("Ice hides …"). The reader is "you" ("press Return to paste it"). Never "we" or "I".
+- **Rhythm.** Mix short sentences with longer ones; keep each under 30 words (validation stops at 40) and paragraphs to five sentences. Validation rejects bodies whose sentence lengths are nearly uniform.
+- **Name what it replaces.** When `alternativeTo` lists a product, name at least one and give the one real difference in your own words. No stock frame such as "does the same job", and no prices.
+- **State requirements and limits as facts.** Minimum macOS, Apple silicon or Intel builds and notarization come from the project's download page, release notes or release files; when sources disagree, follow the download or release page. Put each limit next to the feature it limits. Mention cost, accounts or outside services only when a primary source says so.
+- **Attribute sparingly.** Attribute only claims nobody can check from outside, such as privacy or telemetry, with a plain verb ("The developer says …"); validation allows two. Never describe what a source does not say.
+- **Write about the app, not the review.** No "this entry", "I checked" or "at review time", and no "It suits people who …".
+- **Never** use ratings, superlatives or peacock words ("powerful", "seamless", "intuitive", "native" as praise), "not just … but" constructions, em dashes, exclamation marks, bold, or text copied or closely paraphrased from upstream. Leave out what you could not verify instead of hedging it.
+
+Summaries describe the job in one line, starting with a verb or the thing the app is ("Shrinks PDFs, images and videos you drag onto its window"), never with "Native" or "Menu bar app".
+
All links must use HTTPS. Keep summaries at most 130 characters. Tags must be unique lowercase words separated by hyphens, with one to ten tags per app. Dates must be quoted ISO dates; `verified` records the most recent manual check and cannot precede `added`. It is not a security audit or endorsement.
Categories are `Productivity`, `Developer tools`, `Utilities`, `Media`, `Privacy & security`, `Writing`, `Design`, `Internet`, `Education`, `Games`, and `AI`. Choose one main category; use tags for overlap. The `featured` flag is an editorial choice, not a popularity metric. License values use reviewed SPDX identifiers, with `AND` or `OR` expressions when upstream requires them.

-AB Download Manager takes over file downloads from the browser and keeps them in a dedicated window, where they can be paused, resumed, grouped into queues and started on a schedule. Companion browser extensions, published in a separate repository, hand links to the app.
+AB Download Manager takes file downloads out of the browser and runs them in its own window. Links come in from the browser extension or by hand, and each file is fetched over several connections at once.
-It is released for macOS, Windows, Linux and Android. The project warns that copies offered in app stores it does not list are not official; macOS disk images are on its GitHub releases.
+- Queues run downloads one after another, and a scheduler starts and stops each queue at set times.
+- A speed limiter caps download speed so the rest of the connection stays usable.
+- The browser extension, kept in a separate repository, adds a "Download With AB DM" item to the context menu and catches download links as you click them.
+- Selecting part of a page that contains links brings up a "Download Selected" popup for grabbing them in one go.
+- Several themes are included, among them dark, light and black.
+
+For the Mac, each GitHub release has separate disk images and tar archives for Apple silicon and Intel. The 1.11.4 Apple silicon image is about 88 MB and declares macOS 10.13 or later. You can also install it with Homebrew from the developer's own tap.
+
+The same app runs on Windows, Linux and Android, with translations handled on Crowdin. The project warns that copies in Google Play or other app stores it does not list are not its own, and it treats them as unsafe.

-Abendrot is a menu bar app that shifts your displays toward warmer colours around local sunset. It picks a warming method per display and falls back to a screen tint where direct adjustment is unavailable; holding a hotkey temporarily restores true colour.
+Abendrot shifts your screens toward warm light in the evening. In Sunset mode it starts around local sunset, worked out from your time zone or a city you pick; in Manual mode you set the warmth from the menu bar yourself.
-A bundled `abendrot` command-line tool can read state and change warmth, which also makes it scriptable from other tools. The project lists macOS 12 or later and publishes signed downloads on its site and on GitHub.
+Each connected display gets its own setting: Automatic, Screen tint, or Hardware control on monitors that support it. When direct warming is not available, the app falls back to a tint over the screen. Cozy mode pushes past the everyday range to the app's warmest, near-red setting.
+
+Holding a global hotkey lifts the warmth for as long as you hold it. The bundled `abendrot` tool does the same from a shell, a `launchd` job or an AI coding assistant. `abendrot set warmth 0.8` sets the level, `abendrot reveal --hold 10` gives a short true-colour peek, and `--json` returns state for scripts. It talks only to the running app as the same user.
+
+f.lux also warms the display by time of day, and it is free to download. Its license agreement forbids decompiling it or looking for its source. Abendrot's code is under the MIT license, and the developer says it sends no telemetry and contacts only GitHub, for update checks.
+
+Abendrot needs macOS 12 or later. The 1.1.6 disk image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-ActivityWatch records the active application and window title, browser tabs through optional extensions, and whether you are away from the keyboard. A local web dashboard turns that history into timelines and category summaries you can use to see where working time actually goes.
+ActivityWatch records how you spend time at the computer by logging the active app, its window title and whether you are at the keyboard. Once it is running, you open `localhost:5600` in a browser to see timelines, daily activity and totals by category.
-Data is stored on the machine rather than sent to a hosted service, and the watcher-based design can be extended. Release pages provide macOS builds for Apple silicon and Intel. Window titles and URLs can be sensitive, so review what the watchers capture before leaving it running.
+Collection is split across watchers:
+
+- The window watcher reads the active app and window title. It needs the Accessibility permission, and Screen Recording and Full Disk Access are not used.
+- The AFK watcher uses keyboard and mouse activity to mark when you are away.
+- Browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox add the active tab's title and URL.
+- Editor plugins log time spent writing code.
+
+The developers say the data stays on your device and is never uploaded. That data includes every window title and URL the watchers see.
+
+RescueTime also tracks app and site use, but its client sends the activity to RescueTime's servers to build its reports, and it moves to a paid subscription after a trial. ActivityWatch keeps the raw events on your machine and is free under the MPL 2.0. Sync between devices is still in development.
+
+Since version 0.14 there are separate downloads for Apple silicon and Intel, as DMG or ZIP, and macOS 12 Monterey is the minimum. The Apple silicon DMG of 0.14.1 is Developer ID-signed and notarized. Each release also offers aw-tauri, an alternative build based on Tauri, next to the default aw-qt. Turn on start at login in only one of them, since both use the same port.

-Adium connects to several messaging services at once through the libpurple library, including XMPP and IRC, with tabbed chat windows, combined contacts, themable message views and OTR encryption.
+Adium puts several chat accounts into one contact list and one set of chat windows. You sign in to each account, and Adium talks to the services through the libpurple protocol library. The bundled services include XMPP, IRC, AIM, ICQ, Bonjour, Gadu-Gadu, IBM Lotus Sametime and Novell GroupWise. Third-party plugins add others such as Telegram and Skype for Business, though the Adium project does not support them.
-It is a legacy project: the latest release is 1.5.10.4 and the repository has seen little activity since 2021. Many networks it was built for have shut down or changed their protocols, so check that your service still works before relying on it.
+- Combined Contacts merges several accounts belonging to one person into a single entry.
+- Chats open as tabs, and the WebKit message view can be restyled with themes.
+- Conversations can be encrypted with OTR, and files can be sent through the chat.
+- Notifications go through Growl or Notification Center, and contacts can be linked with the Contacts app.
+
+Adium hosts no chat services. It is a third-party client for networks that other people run, mostly companies, so whether an account still connects depends on that network. Xtras from the AdiumXtras site add further customization, and the interface comes in 27 languages.
+
+The current download, version 1.5.10.4, needs OS X 10.7.5 or later. The app in its disk image is an Intel-only (x86_64) build, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Nothing has been committed to the repository since March 2021.

-Adrafinil listens to hooks from coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI and holds off sleep, even with the lid closed, while any of them is mid-task. When the last session finishes, normal sleep resumes; a thermal cutout and cleanup of abandoned sessions limit unattended runs.
+Adrafinil keeps a MacBook awake with the lid shut, but only while a coding agent is in the middle of a turn. You install its hooks into the agents you use from Settings, close the lid, and the Mac keeps working; once the last agent goes idle, the hold is released and the Mac can sleep normally.
-The current release needs macOS 26.4 or later and administrator approval for a privileged helper; the README links a community backport for macOS 15. It is also available as a Homebrew cask.
+Each agent session takes and drops its own hold, so several agents can overlap and sleep returns only after the final one finishes. Hooks ship for ten agents, among them Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Aider, Cline and OpenCode. For other tools there is a command-line client with `acquire`, `release` and timed `hold --for` commands, plus MCP access and command wrappers.
+
+- A thermal cutout drops holds when the Mac gets too hot.
+- Holds from agents that quit or stall are released automatically.
+- An optional chime confirms the hold when you close the lid, and the screen locks.
+- Opening the lid can show a summary of session length and temperature.
+- Uninstalling removes the hook entries it added to each agent.
+
+Version 1.14.1 requires macOS 26.4 or later and is built for Apple silicon only; the app inside its disk image is Developer ID-signed and notarized. The README links a macOS 15 backport kept in a separate repository, and the app is also available as a Homebrew cask.
+
+Closed-lid operation goes through a privileged root helper that needs administrator approval. The helper uses `pmset disablesleep`, which also blocks idle sleep while a hold is active. Usage counting is opt-in: the developer says that if you agree, one anonymous check-in is sent per day of use, and turning it off deletes what was sent.

-Aerial plays the slow-motion aerial footage known from Apple TV as a Mac screen saver. The companion app manages video downloads, playback options, and overlays such as the time or location information.
+Aerial plays Apple's aerial footage, the city, desert and space station shots made for Apple TV, as your Mac's screen saver and, if you want, as a moving desktop wallpaper. You drag Aerial.app into Applications and open it. A setup assistant asks whether you want a screen saver only, a still wallpaper or a live one, which overlay style to use, and whether the app lives in the menu bar or the Dock.
-The project began as a standalone .saver; version 4 moved to this repository as an app with a bundled extension, and the older JohnCoates/Aerial repository now points here. The videos are fetched from their providers, so expect substantial downloads.
+The Video Library then shows a card for each display with what it is playing.
+
+- Overlays such as the clock, weather and location captions are dragged into seven zones on the screen.
+- Your own .mov or .mp4 files go into one folder and join the rotation, with a title, a location and a time-of-day tag.
+- Live sources include RTSP cameras, HLS streams and YouTube live URLs.
+- Playlists, multi-display modes, global hotkeys and community video packs round it out.
+
+Playback pauses under thermal pressure, in Low Power Mode or while a camera is in use. The live wallpaper also pauses when windows cover it. The developer says Aerial sends no telemetry.
+
+Since version 4 the screen saver has shipped as an app extension inside Aerial.app, and 4.1 added the wallpaper extension. Version 4.1.10 needs macOS 26 Tahoe. It is an 11 MB Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it updates itself through Sparkle. On macOS 15 Sequoia, Aerial 4.0.16 still works, minus the wallpaper.

-AeroSpace is a tiling window manager inspired by i3. It uses its own workspaces and a tree-based layout model to organize windows across monitors.
+AeroSpace arranges your windows into tiles and moves between workspaces at the press of a key. It follows the i3 model: windows sit in a tree of containers, and each container lays its children out side by side or stacked.
-It runs as a macOS application but is designed around text configuration and keyboard or command-line control. The upstream guide covers setup and its differences from native Spaces.
+There are four layouts. Horizontal and vertical tiles split the space, and horizontal and vertical accordion stack windows on top of each other, like i3's tabbed and stacked modes. The default bindings use Option with H, J, K and L to move focus and Option with a number to switch workspace.
+
+Workspaces are AeroSpace's own. macOS Spaces animate slowly and offer no public API, so the app hides inactive windows in a corner of the screen and brings them back when you switch. It needs no change to System Integrity Protection and uses one private API.
+
+Configuration is a TOML file, `~/.aerospace.toml`, and the project says it will never offer a settings window. The same commands run from a terminal as `aerospace workspace 1` and the like, with man pages and shell completion included.
+
+The project is a public beta, and breaking changes are expected before version 1.0. The release ZIP holds a Universal app that runs on macOS 13 or later. It is not notarized. The recommended Homebrew cask removes the quarantine flag so the app opens without a warning.

-Agent Teams AI is a desktop workspace for coordinating several coding agents at once. You assign tasks on a kanban board; agents pick them up, message one another and review each other's output while you follow progress and step in on decisions.
+Agent Teams AI puts several coding agents to work on one project and shows their progress on a kanban board. You pick a project, define the roles and write a provisioning prompt; the agents then create tasks, work through them and review each other's results.
-It can drive Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor and other agents or providers you connect, and offers a free model option without an account. The macOS download on GitHub releases is built for Apple silicon. Agents act on the selected project folder, so keep work under version control.
+- Agents send each other direct messages, comment on tasks and can talk across teams.
+- Tasks that change code get a diff view where you accept, reject or comment on each hunk.
+- You can let agents run on their own or approve supported tool actions one at a time.
+- Each teammate can work in the main checkout or in its own git worktree, chosen at launch.
+- Token use is broken down by team, agent, task and model, with optional monthly budgets.
+
+The app detects installed Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode runtimes. Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Kiro and other providers connect from the interface with subscriptions or API keys you already have. There is also a free model that needs no sign-up or key.
+
+The developer says the app does not upload your code to its own servers. The agent runtimes you launch still talk to their own providers.
+
+Releases include separate macOS disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, each close to 400 MB. Pull requests are accepted under a contributor agreement that lets the owner also license that code commercially; the public code stays under the AGPL.

-AI Dictation turns speech into text wherever you can type. On the Mac a configurable shortcut starts recording, and the transcript is inserted into the active app. Personal vocabulary, replacements, writing rules and spoken shortcuts shape the result.
+AI Dictation turns speech into text in the app you are typing in. Put the cursor in a text field, press your shortcut, speak, and stop; the finished text goes where the cursor was.
-Recognition can run offline or in the cloud, and an optional cleanup step may send transcripts for processing, so disable cloud features if nothing should leave the device. The README lists macOS 13 or later; Windows, iOS and Android versions also exist.
+Recognition runs in one of two modes. Offline mode runs it on the Mac after a one-time model download and needs macOS 14. Cloud mode sends the recording to a transcription service. An optional cleanup step tidies and formats the text afterwards, and it can send the transcript out even in offline mode, so turn it off if nothing should leave the Mac.
+
+- Personal vocabulary gives the spelling of names, products and jargon.
+- Replacements swap a phrase as spoken for the text you prefer.
+- Voice shortcuts turn a short spoken cue into a phrase you use often.
+- Writing rules set format or tone for a particular context.
+
+The website aims the app at people who switch between Russian, Ukrainian or Belarusian and English at work, and says it leaves English terms as spoken.
+
+Dictation is metered and tied to an account: you sign in before downloading, the free trial covers 5,000 words, and after that dictation needs a paid Pro plan. The 0.0.136 disk image holds a Universal app for macOS 13 or later, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The Windows, iPhone, iPad and Android clients are in the same MIT-licensed repository.

-AirBattery collects battery readings from nearby Apple devices and Bluetooth peripherals and shows them on your Mac. Levels can appear in a Dock menu, the menu bar, or desktop widgets, and devices can be hidden individually.
+AirBattery gathers battery levels from your other Apple devices and accessories and shows them on the Mac. Click its Dock icon or menu bar icon, or add one of its widgets, to see every level at once.
-iPhones and iPads need to trust the Mac and share its network for discovery, and a LAN feature can read batteries from other Macs. The latest release is 1.6.3 from June 2025.
+An iPhone or iPad has to trust the Mac first. Connect it by cable once while AirBattery is running, then keep it on the same network. A paired Apple Watch is read through its iPhone when that iPhone is found over Wi-Fi or USB, though not over Bluetooth. With a setting turned on, an iPhone or cellular iPad can also report over Bluetooth alone. AirPods, Magic devices and some other Bluetooth keyboards, mice and headphones are read directly, which is why the app asks for Bluetooth access.
+
+- Nearcast shows the batteries of your other Macs on the local network, and their accessories.
+- Widgets come in several sizes, the largest showing eight devices.
+- Low-battery alerts can be set for any device.
+- Devices can be hidden from the menus and shown again later.
+
+A warning sign next to a device means it has not reported for over ten minutes. The app talks to iPhones through bundled libimobiledevice tools.
+
+AirBattery needs macOS 11 or later and comes as a Universal disk image. It is not notarized, so macOS blocks the first launch until you allow it.

-AirStats shows system readings in the menu bar, in a drop-down panel with more detail, and in a desktop widget. It covers processor and memory load, GPU, network and disk activity, battery state, temperatures and top processes.
+AirStats puts live system readings in the menu bar, so you can keep an eye on load, memory and temperatures at a glance. You choose which of its sixteen menu bar metrics to show, from a couple to all of them, and give each its own colour or leave them monochrome.
-Keeping its own resource use small is the main design goal, and it runs without a Dock icon. The project states that it requires macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon. Updates are checked through Sparkle, which can be switched off.
+- Clicking the status item opens a panel showing load for each core, memory pressure, the GPU, network, disk, battery, temperatures and the busiest processes, with the last 24 hours for each.
+- A desktop widget keeps the modules you choose on screen all the time.
+- Threshold alerts send a notification when a metric crosses a value you set.
+- Keyboard shortcuts open the panel or the widget without the mouse.
+
+Staying small is the point of the project. AirStats is a single process with no helper, no launch agent and no Dock icon. It reads the system directly through Mach, IOKit, sysctl and CoreWLAN. Its site publishes a benchmark against Stats and iStat Menus, method included. The developer says nothing leaves the Mac except the optional public IP lookup, which ships disabled.
+
+Bjango's iStat Menus covers the same ground and also reports S.M.A.R.T. disk status and per-app bandwidth, but it is sold as a paid license. AirStats is free, with no account and no paid tier.
+
+AirStats needs macOS 14 or later and, according to its site, runs only on Apple silicon for now. The v1.6 DMG is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Sparkle checks for updates weekly and installs one only when you agree; both can be turned off in settings.

-Alacritty is a terminal emulator for running shells and text interfaces. Its restrained interface puts terminal content first, with behavior configured through a text file.
+Alacritty runs your shell and command-line programs in a terminal window drawn with OpenGL. It starts with usable defaults and reads its settings from an `alacritty.toml` file that you create yourself, for example in `~/.config/alacritty/`. The full option list is in `man 5 alacritty` and on the website.
-It works well alongside a terminal multiplexer when you need elaborate session layouts. The macOS release is a standalone desktop app.
+Tabs, splits and a settings window are left out on purpose. The project leaves them to a window manager or a multiplexer such as tmux. What it adds on top of plain terminal emulation is keyboard-centred:
+
+- Vi mode, opened with Control-Shift-Space, moves through the scrollback with vi keys and selects and copies text.
+- Search finds text in the scrollback with Command-F and Command-B on macOS.
+- Hints match visible text such as URLs with a regular expression and open them or pass them to another program.
+- One running instance can open several windows, from a key binding or with `alacritty msg create-window`.
+
+For the Mac, the release page offers a disk image with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel; version 0.17.0 came out in April 2026. The same code runs on Linux, BSD and Windows.
+
+The project still calls the software beta. A few features are missing and some bugs remain open.

-AltTab provides a window switcher with thumbnails, making it easier to pick a specific window when several apps have multiple documents open. Its behavior and shortcuts are configurable.
+AltTab lists every open window, not every app, when you press its shortcut, Option-Tab by default. Release the keys to bring the selected window forward. Or keep the switcher open and browse; the selected window shows full size behind it before you commit.
-You can tune which windows appear and how previews are arranged. macOS permissions are needed for window control and preview capture; the project explains the setup.
+The built-in Command-Tab cycles through apps, so two documents in the same app share one entry. AltTab gives each window its own thumbnail, including minimized and hidden windows and those on other Spaces or screens. A badge says where each one is. Hover a thumbnail to close, minimize or full-screen that window without switching to it. Shortcuts can be limited to one app, Space or screen, and virtual machines and remote desktops can be kept out of the list. A three-finger swipe opens the switcher, and a command-line tool lists and focuses windows from scripts.
+
+AltTab needs macOS 12 or later. The download is a universal zip for Apple silicon and Intel, with a Developer ID signature and Apple notarization. It asks for Accessibility permission to switch windows and Screen Recording permission to draw thumbnails. Without the second it still switches, but shows no previews.
+
+The switcher itself is free. AltTab Pro, a one-time purchase, adds window search, icon and title-list styles, auto-sized thumbnails and up to nine shortcuts, all of which you can try for 14 days. The source is GPL-3.0, and the Pro license applies to the signed builds the developer distributes. The developer says the app has no telemetry or tracking. A Pro license is re-checked with the developer's server from time to time, and a failed check does not lock the app.

-Amethyst arranges application windows into tiling layouts, reducing the need to position each one manually. Keyboard commands make it practical to navigate and reorganize a desktop full of windows.
+Amethyst arranges the windows on each screen into a layout as you open and close them, so you rarely drag or resize anything by hand. Option-Shift-Space cycles to the next layout. Option-Shift-J and K move focus between windows, and Option-Shift-Return swaps the focused window into the main pane.
-It uses macOS Accessibility APIs. The upstream documentation explains layout configuration and settings that make navigation between Spaces more predictable.
+The default Tall layout puts one main pane on the left and stacks the rest in rows on the right. Other layouts include:
+
+- Wide, with the main pane across the top
+- Three-column layouts with the main pane on the left, middle or right
+- Fullscreen, Column, Row and binary space partitioning
+- Floating, which leaves windows where you put them
+
+You choose which layouts appear in the cycle, and custom layouts can be written in JavaScript, still in beta. Settings can also live in a YAML file in your home folder, which overrides the settings window. Other shortcuts throw the focused window to another Space or screen, and Option-Shift-T makes a single window float.
+
+Amethyst needs the Accessibility permission. Turning off the Mission Control option that rearranges Spaces by recent use keeps keyboard moves between Spaces predictable. The release ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, which needs macOS 12 or later. Amethyst is free under the MIT license.

-Anki turns notes into flashcards and schedules reviews according to how well you remember them. Cards can contain text, images, and audio for different kinds of study.
+Anki quizzes you with flashcards and decides when each one comes back. After you see the answer, you rate how well you remembered it. Anki then schedules the next review for around the time you would otherwise forget. Cards you know well turn up less and less, which leaves more of each session for the hard ones.
-The macOS desktop application is open source. Shared decks, add-ons, and optional synchronization extend the basic local study workflow.
+Cards are grouped in decks, so you can drill one subject without the rest of your collection. A card can hold text, images, audio, video and scientific markup. You can change both how cards look and how the review timing works, and collections of more than 100,000 cards stay usable.
+
+Add-ons extend the desktop app with new features. Shared decks let you start from material other people have made, and you can publish your own.
+
+The free AnkiWeb service syncs your cards between devices. On phones, AnkiMobile is the official iOS app and is sold to fund development, while AnkiDroid on Android costs nothing and is made by contributors.
+
+Version 26.09.4 needs macOS 13 or later. It comes as two DMGs, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel. The code is licensed under the AGPL, version 3 or later, and Anki is a registered trademark of Ankitects.

-AnythingLLM groups conversations and documents into workspaces. It can connect to supported local or remote models and use selected documents as context.
+AnythingLLM lets you chat with a language model about your own documents. You create a workspace, drag in PDFs, Word files or text, and ask questions; answers come with citations of the sources they drew on.
-The desktop app source is MIT licensed. Models, external providers, and optional hosted offerings have separate requirements and terms.
+- A built-in engine runs local models, or you connect Ollama, LM Studio, OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and many other providers.
+- Agents can search the web, read and write local files and call MCP servers.
+- A no-code builder chains agent steps into flows.
+- Scheduled tasks run prompts on a cron schedule.
+
+The desktop app needs no account. The developer says models, documents and chat history stay on the Mac by default. It still sends anonymous usage events, such as the fact that a chat was sent, to PostHog, and you can turn this off under Privacy in the sidebar. Multi-user accounts, white-labelling and the embeddable chat widget exist only in the Docker version.
+
+There are separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, and the documentation notes that M-series chips run local models considerably faster. The code is MIT-licensed, while each model and outside provider keeps its own terms.

-ApolloShell brings the look of Linux desktop shells such as Caelestia to macOS 26. It adds panels to the screen edges: a sidebar with its own dock and status blocks, a launcher, a dashboard with weather, calendar and media, and a control centre, all themed from a single CSS file and arranged in its settings app.
+ApolloShell adds panels along the edges of the Mac screen, styled after Caelestia and other Linux desktop shells. Finder and the window manager keep working as before; the shell sits around them.
-It is an early release that relies on private macOS interfaces, so system updates may break parts of it. It complements Finder and the window manager rather than replacing them.
+- The left sidebar is built from blocks you add, remove and reorder: a power button, status icons, a clock and Spaces.
+- The sidebar's dock shows pinned and running apps, with the clicks, menus, drag and drop and badges of Apple's Dock.
+- Option-Space opens a launcher that ranks the apps you use most.
+- A dashboard drops from the top edge with pages of widgets for weather, calendar, system stats, playback and a timer.
+- A control centre in the bottom-right corner covers sound, Wi-Fi, dark mode, Night Shift, keep-awake and a colour picker.
+
+The look comes from one CSS file in Application Support. It sets colours, gradients, fonts and sizes through `--apollo-*` tokens, and saving it restyles the shell at once. Panels are arranged in Nexus, the settings app.
+
+ApolloShell needs macOS 26 Tahoe on Apple silicon or Intel. This is an early release built on private macOS interfaces, and a system update can break parts of it. The disk image is not notarized, so the first launch has to be allowed in Privacy & Security; Homebrew builds it from source instead. The disk image build updates itself through Sparkle. It shares no code with Caelestia.

-AppFlowy provides documents and structured views for organizing a project or personal workspace. You can bring written notes and more structured information into the same application.
+AppFlowy keeps pages and databases in one workspace. You write documents built from blocks and store structured records in databases that you view as a grid, a board or a calendar.
-The open-source desktop app supports local work. Optional cloud and AI services have their own account requirements and pricing.
+- Grid views list records as rows, with filters that understand relative dates like today or tomorrow.
+- Board views group cards into columns, with sorting and calculations per column.
+- Calendar views place records by date, let events span several days, have a weekly view, and change dates when you drag an event.
+- Relation properties link records across databases and can be used to group them.
+
+The AI tools include search, a writing assistant, a chatbot and meeting notes with transcripts. The free Personal plan on AppFlowy Cloud limits several of them to a trial, and the pricing page lists a Local AI option.
+
+The developers built AppFlowy as an answer to Notion, and both mix pages with databases. The difference is where it runs: the code is AGPL-3.0, and a team can host the server on its own machines, including air-gapped networks, in place of AppFlowy Cloud.
+
+The desktop app is written in Flutter and Rust. Version 0.15.0 comes as Apple silicon, Intel and Universal disk images, and companion apps exist for iPhone and Android.

-Applite puts a graphical catalog on top of Homebrew Cask, so Mac software that is not sold through the App Store can be found, installed, updated and uninstalled with a click. It can manage its own Homebrew installation, which means newcomers do not need Terminal or the Command Line Tools first.
+Applite works like an app store for Mac software that is not in the Mac App Store. You browse by category or search the whole Homebrew Cask catalog, click Install, and the app lands in place without a disk image to drag. One Update All button updates everything it manages.
-It deliberately covers casks only, not command-line formulae or services, and can import and export Brewfiles to set up another Mac. Existing Homebrew users can point it at their current installation instead.
+Homebrew does the work underneath, but you never open Terminal. On first launch Applite installs its own copy of Homebrew in its Application Support folder, and it needs no Xcode Command Line Tools. If you already use Homebrew, point Applite at your existing prefix in Settings.
+
+- Uninstalling can remove an app's settings and support files along with it.
+- Brewfile export and import, with a checklist, set up the same apps on a new Mac.
+- Casks from custom taps can be installed.
+- HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5 proxies are supported.
+
+Command-line formulae and background services are left out on purpose. Applite only handles apps, shown with icons, categories and a search field. If you also manage developer tools through Homebrew, you keep using `brew` for those.
+
+The developer says the app has no accounts, analytics or telemetry. It is translated into seven languages.
+
+Version 1.4.2 is a DMG with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. It needs macOS 14 or later and is free under the MIT license.

-AppPolice provides a small interface for throttling a running process that is consuming more CPU time than you want it to use. The upstream release is a downloadable macOS disk image.
+AppPolice slows down a process that is using more CPU than you want it to. Open its menu bar menu, pick a running app, and drag the slider to the share of CPU it may use.
-This is an older utility with documentation dating to earlier OS X versions. Confirm compatibility with your current system before adopting it for regular use.
+The menu splits running processes into apps and system processes. Limits above 100 percent cover several cores, at 100 percent per core.

+
+The app dates from the OS X era. The last release, 1.1 from February 2016, is a disk image with an Intel-only app that declares OS X 10.7 or later. It carries no usable code signature, so macOS warns on first launch; the README's answer is to right-click it and choose Open. On an Apple silicon Mac it would need Rosetta.
+
+Building it from source also needs the separate ChromeMenu framework checked out next to it. The code is under GPL version 2.

-AppPorts helps relocate large applications and selected data directories to an external drive while preserving a familiar way to open them. Its migration approach varies with the application, storage format, and macOS version.
+AppPorts frees space on the internal disk by moving apps and their data to an external drive. Choose an external app library, quit the app you want to move, and migrate it; a small launcher with the usual icon stays behind, so Finder and the Dock still open it.
-The external drive must remain available for relocated content. Review the readiness checks and migration guidance, and keep a backup before moving important app data.
+The method depends on what is being moved:
+
+- Ordinary Mac apps get a lightweight local launcher, while the full app lives on the drive.
+- Apps that update themselves through Sparkle or Electron can be locked on the drive, and you unlock them before updating.
+- On macOS 15.1 and later, App Store apps use the system's own support for installing on external storage.
+- App containers, such as WeChat history, are mounted from an unencrypted external APFS volume at their original path, so their signatures stay intact.
+- Other data and tool folders such as `~/.npm` are replaced by symbolic links.
+
+System apps cannot be moved, and running apps have to be quit first. Apps and data can be moved back once the drive is connected and the Mac has room.
+
+AppPorts needs macOS 12 or later on Apple silicon or Intel, and the 2.1.0 disk image is not notarized. The drive has to stay connected while you use migrated apps, and a stable external SSD is recommended. Readiness checks walk you through Full Disk Access. Back up important data first.
+
+Upgrading to macOS 27 needs one step beforehand. Install the latest AppPorts and open it once, so it can update its background re-signing script; on macOS 27 that login re-signing is switched off and old tasks are cleaned up.

-Ardour is a long-running open-source DAW for multitrack recording, non-destructive editing, MIDI sequencing and mixing, with support for audio plugins and control surfaces. It suits musicians, podcasters and engineers who want a full studio workflow without proprietary software.
+Ardour records audio and MIDI on any number of tracks, then lets you edit and mix them. Add a track and press record, or import audio and MIDI from disk or from the Freesound library.
-Ready-to-run macOS builds are offered from the official site for a payment, while the source code stays freely available under the GPL; building it yourself is possible but unsupported by the project. The GitHub repository is the project's official mirror.
+- Editing is non-linear, with unlimited undo, ripple modes for spoken-word work, and stretching, quantizing and crossfades.
+- Plugins load in AudioUnit, LV2, VST2, VST3 and LADSPA formats, and any parameter can be automated or bound with MIDI Learn.
+- Routing connects any input to any output, inside Ardour or to other programs, with sends, inserts and returns.
+- Sync covers MIDI timecode, LTC, MIDI clock and MIDI Machine Control, and Mackie Control and OSC surfaces are supported.
+- A video timeline shows frame thumbnails of an imported clip, for scoring and soundtrack editing.
+
+Version 9.8 arrived in August 2026 with keys and scales. Ardour can now mark notes that fall outside the chosen key, and if you want, it stops you from drawing new ones.
+
+The source code is free under GPL version 2 or later. Ready-to-run builds for macOS, Windows and Linux are paid. You pay once or subscribe, and a separate free demo copy can be requested. Builds carry no license keys and keep working if a subscription ends. Building from source on macOS is possible, though the project gives no help with it.
+
+REAPER has one fully featured version, which you can evaluate for 60 days before buying a license. With Ardour, the payment is for the ready-made build. Compile the free code yourself and you skip it.

-Atoll expands the area around the notch into a compact control panel. It combines media playback, timers, calendar previews, and system information with configurable presentation and gestures.
+Atoll turns the space around a MacBook's notch into a panel that stays small until you hover near it, then expands; click in and tabs lead to media, stats, timers, clipboard history and more. With hover-to-open turned off, a two-finger swipe down opens it and a swipe up closes it.
-The project targets notched MacBooks and documents its current macOS requirements. Enable the individual integrations and permissions that match how you plan to use it.
+- Media controls work with Apple Music, Spotify, Cider and other players. Once you turn on media gestures in Settings, horizontal swipes on the music pane skip tracks or seek 10 seconds.
+- Live Activities cover playback, Focus, screen recording, privacy indicators, battery charging and, in beta, downloads.
+- The Stats tab shows CPU, GPU, memory, network and disk usage.
+- Lock screen widgets show media, timers, charging, Bluetooth devices and weather.
+- Other tools include a color picker, calendar previews and a Shelf for files, which you can fill from Terminal with `open -a Atoll`.
+
+Atoll is made for MacBook Pro models with a notch. Version 2.3.3 ships as a DMG holding a Universal app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and it needs macOS 14.6 or later.
+
+Layout, animation style, hover behaviour and global shortcuts are set in Settings. Atoll asks for permissions as its features need them: Accessibility, Camera, Calendar, Screen Recording or Music. Once you have allowed Accessibility or Screen Recording, restart Atoll so the change applies.

-Atomic Chat is a desktop chat client for running open-weight language models on your own machine. It downloads and manages models and switches between local inference engines, so conversations with a local model never leave the computer. While a model is loaded, the app also serves an OpenAI-compatible API on localhost, so editors, command-line agents and other clients can use the same local model.
+Atomic Chat downloads open-weight language models from Hugging Face and runs them on your own computer. You pick a model such as Llama, Gemma, Qwen or Mistral, load it, and chat with it in a window that keeps conversations in projects.
-The project credits Menlo Research in its license notice and is distributed under Apache 2.0. GitHub releases include a universal macOS build alongside Windows and Linux packages; mobile versions are listed separately.
+- Several inference engines sit behind the app, among them llama.cpp, MLX-VLM and Apple's on-device Foundation Models, and each appears only where it can run.
+- While a model is loaded, an OpenAI-compatible server answers at `localhost:1337`, so coding agents, command-line tools and editor plugins can use it.
+- That server listens only on the loopback address until you change a setting to open it to your network.
+- API keys for cloud providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic and Mistral can sit next to local models, and you choose the model per chat.
+- MCP servers and custom assistants with their own system prompts extend what a chat can do.
+
+The developer says conversations and keys stay on the machine. For local models, the README suggests 8 GB of RAM for 3B models, 16 GB for 7B and 32 GB for 13B.
+
+Atomic Chat needs macOS 13.6 or later and runs on Intel and Apple silicon Macs. It began as a fork of Jan from Menlo Research and keeps the Apache 2.0 license, and there are versions for Windows, Linux, iOS and Android too.
+
+LM Studio, from Element Labs, also downloads models and serves them through OpenAI-compatible endpoints, and its site offers accounts and cloud services as well.

-Audacity offers a timeline for recording voices or instruments, editing clips, and combining tracks. Effects and analysis tools help clean up or reshape a recording.
+Audacity records audio and edits it as clips on a multitrack timeline. You trim a clip with its top handle, stretch it with the bottom one, and zoom in far enough to drag individual samples with the mouse. Each track has a meter that shows the input level while you record and the playback level otherwise.
-Use it for podcast edits, voiceovers, and other audio projects that benefit from seeing individual tracks and waveforms.
+- Effects include a compressor, limiter, reverb, graphic EQ and filter curve, all rebuilt for version 4.
+- Plugins load in LV2, VST3, Audio Units and Nyquist formats, though the Apple silicon-only DMG has no plugin support.
+- The Spectrogram view and Vamp analyzers show what is happening in the frequencies of a recording.
+- Labels mark points or regions on the timeline, and you can export audio split by those labels.
+
+Workspaces change which tools sit in the toolbar and set the ruler to show either time or bars and beats. Classic, Music and Modern come built in, and you can build your own. Projects from Audacity 3 in `.aup3` format open in version 4 unchanged.
+
+Audacity imports and exports WAV, MP3, FLAC and Ogg. WMA, M4A, AC3 and other formats need the separate FFmpeg library, which the project links from its download page. You can also save projects to audio.com, and Get Effects browses free and paid plugins, samples and one-shots from MuseHub.
+
+The Mac download comes as a Universal DMG, an Apple silicon DMG and an Intel DMG. Audacity is tested on macOS 14 and 15, the 4.0.2 app needs macOS 13 or later, and the app inside the DMG is notarized by Apple.
+
+Like Adobe Audition, Audacity records and edits audio. It is free and GPL-licensed, and it runs on macOS, Windows and Linux.

+- headphones are unplugged,
+- Bluetooth headphones disconnect,
+- the Mac goes to sleep or powers off,
+- the Mac locks or starts the screen saver.
+
+AutoMute is sold on the Mac App Store and needs macOS 10.13 or later. The GitHub repository holds its Xcode workspace under the MIT license; the README says it can be opened in Xcode to build the app. No ready-made build is posted on GitHub. Version 1.10, from March 2024, is the latest. It fixed muting with some speakers and headphones and made the menu bar icon, which shows whether the current output is headphones, follow the default output device. The app can also be hidden from the menu bar.
+
+The README describes the case it was written for. Music is still playing when a laptop is closed late at night, and the next morning the laptop is opened in a silent office or classroom. Because AutoMute muted the Mac when it went to sleep, nothing plays. It also covers walking too far from the Mac with a Bluetooth headset, when the sound would otherwise move to the speakers.

-AutoRaise brings a window forward after the pointer rests over it for a configurable interval. It can also reposition the pointer when switching applications with the keyboard.
+AutoRaise brings a window to the front and gives it focus when you rest the pointer on it, after a delay you choose. You move the mouse to the window you want, and the click that would normally bring it forward is no longer needed.
-The downloadable app includes a menu bar interface; that interface has its own upstream repository. AutoRaise works with separate macOS windows, not panes inside an application's window.
+After installing, you grant the Accessibility permission by clicking its balloon icon, and right-clicking the same icon opens preferences. Much of the behaviour can be tuned:
+
+- How long the pointer must stop before a raise, and how often its position is checked.
+- A key, Control by default, that pauses AutoRaise while you hold it.
+- Apps and window titles to leave alone, with regular expressions allowed for titles.
+- Raising only when the window under the pointer is on another screen than the focused one, or only while two or more displays are connected.
+- Moving the pointer to the window you switch to with Command-Tab or Command-backtick.
+
+The project comes in two parts. This repository holds the engine and its command-line options, which can also live in a `~/.AutoRaise` configuration file. The menu bar app and its preferences window are a separate project, AutoRaise-UI. Release 5.7 is a DMG with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 10.15 or later and is Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+AutoRaise works on separate windows only. Panes drawn inside one window, such as tmux or iTerm2 splits, count as a single window to macOS and cannot be focused one by one.

-Background Music adds per-application volume controls and can pause a supported music player when another audio source starts. It also provides a route for recording system audio with another recording app.
+Background Music gives every app that plays sound its own volume slider, and it pauses your music when something else starts making noise. Once the other sound stops, the music picks up again. Auto-pause works with iTunes, Spotify, VLC, VOX, Decibel, Hermes, Swinsian and GPMDP.
-The upstream project still describes the software as alpha. Review its supported-player list and installation instructions when configuring your audio workflow.
+The sliders can push a quiet app past its usual maximum. Some apps play audio through a helper process, which matters for meeting and video call apps. If a slider seems to do nothing, look under More Apps for an entry ending in "(Helper)".
+
+All of this works through a virtual audio device. Background Music makes it the default output while it runs and switches back when you quit. The same device lets you record what the Mac is playing: choose it as the input in QuickTime Player, or combine it with a microphone as an aggregate device in Audio MIDI Setup. Because macOS treats that device as a microphone, the app asks for microphone access. The developer says it never listens to the microphone itself.
+
+The project still calls the app alpha. If it crashes and sound stops, pick another output in System Settings > Sound. Uninstalling runs a script kept inside the app bundle.
+
+Voicemeeter is a full virtual mixing console for routing sound between apps and devices, and it runs only on Windows. Background Music covers the per-app volume and recording parts on a Mac.
+
+Version 0.5.0 is a signed and notarized installer package that needs macOS 10.13 or later and no restart.

-balenaEtcher flashes disk images such as Raspberry Pi or Linux installers onto SD cards and USB drives. It guards against accidentally writing to your computer's own disks and checks that the data was written correctly, and it can also flash Raspberry Pi devices that boot in USB device mode.
+balenaEtcher writes an operating system image, such as a Raspberry Pi or Linux installer, onto an SD card or USB drive. When the write finishes, Etcher validates the drive to confirm that every byte was written correctly.
-It is an Electron app maintained by Balena, and the official releases include separate macOS builds for Apple silicon and Intel. Writing an image erases the target drive, so double-check the selected device before flashing.
+Your Mac's system drives are hidden from the target list by default, and Etcher shows warnings to keep you from wiping the wrong disk. Flashing still erases whatever was on the card or stick. Etcher can also flash an image straight from a URL, and it can write directly to Raspberry Pi devices that boot in USB device mode.
+
+The copy is byte for byte, with no changes to the image. Images that need extra preparation to boot, such as Windows installers, do not work this way, and Etcher has no persistent storage for live Linux drives.
+
+The app is built with Electron and maintained by Balena. Each release ships separate DMG and ZIP builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs. Etcher is free under the Apache 2.0 license.
+
+Rufus also makes bootable USB drives and is one of the tools Etcher's documentation suggests for Windows installers, but it runs only on Windows. Ventoy takes a different approach: you prepare a stick once and copy several ISO files onto it, then pick one from a boot menu. Its installer has no macOS version, while Etcher writes one image per drive.

-Bambu Studio organizes models into print projects and prepares them for supported printers. Plate layout, material settings, and layer previews help plan a job before sending it to hardware.
+Bambu Studio turns 3D models into print files. You load parts onto one or more build plates, set the material and print settings, slice, and check the result in the G-code viewer before printing.
-The slicer's source is open under the AGPL. Some printer connectivity components and services are distributed separately and have their own terms.
+Slicing settings can be set globally, per object or per part. The slicer can arrange and orient objects for you, and it generates normal, tree or hybrid supports, with custom supports as another option.
+
+- Painting tools mark regions of a model for multi-material prints.
+- STEP files can be imported, and assemblies can be shown in an exploded view.
+- During a filament change, the transition material can be flushed into infill or into another object.
+- Cooling logic controls fan speed and adjusts print speed, and brims are added automatically based on a mechanical analysis of the model.
+
+Curved paths can be written as G2 and G3 arc moves.
+
+The slicer is under the GNU AGPL 3.0 and builds on PrusaSlicer, which in turn comes from Slic3r. Releases include a macOS disk image next to Windows and Linux builds.
+
+Bambu Lab's networking plugin, which adds extended network features, is optional and built on non-free libraries. Without it, you slice and then start the print from an SD card.

-baRSS keeps RSS and Atom subscriptions in a status bar menu, refreshes them on a schedule you set, and marks what is new. There is no built-in article viewer: choosing an item opens it in your browser, which keeps the app very small.
+baRSS checks your RSS and Atom subscriptions in the background and lists new articles in a menu under its menu bar icon, with a dot on the unread ones. Choosing an article opens it in your browser. The app has no reader view of its own.
-The update interval is adjustable, and requests reuse caching headers so unchanged feeds are not downloaded again. The project requires macOS 10.13 or later and distributes builds through GitHub releases and its own Homebrew tap rather than the App Store.
+The developer built it for a small footprint. The release is a ZIP of about half a megabyte, and the developer says the app uses under 30 MB of memory and keeps no cookies or cached web sessions. You set how often feeds refresh, and requests reuse ETag and Last-Modified headers, so a feed that has not changed is not downloaded again.
+
+baRSS needs macOS 10.13 or later and runs on Apple silicon and Intel. It has no option to start at login, so you add it to Login Items yourself. Release 1.6.2 is not notarized, and the README's Homebrew instructions clear the quarantine flag after installing from the developer's tap.
+
+A few controls sit behind the Option key. Option-clicking an article marks it read or unread without opening it. Holding Option while you open the menu shows articles that the "Show only unread" setting hides. In the feed editor, Option reveals a regular-expression converter for sites that publish no feed. Some settings, such as the tint of the menu bar icon, exist only as `defaults` commands. The README also gives a one-line command that backs up your subscriptions as OPML.

-Bdash is aimed at quick analysis rather than database administration. Write and save queries against MySQL, PostgreSQL or Redshift, SQLite, BigQuery, Treasure Data or Athena, then turn a result into a simple chart or share it as a gist.
+You write a query in Bdash, run it against one of your data sources, and keep it in a saved list to run again later. A result can be drawn as a chart or shared as a GitHub gist.
-The Electron app ships universal macOS builds on GitHub. It does not try to replace schema designers or full admin tools such as DBeaver; it keeps a focused query history for repeated look-ups.
+It connects to these sources:
+
+- MySQL
+- PostgreSQL, which also covers Amazon Redshift
+- SQLite
+- Google BigQuery
+- Treasure Data
+- Amazon Athena
+
+Bdash also includes an MCP server, so AI coding tools such as Claude Code can work with it. Through that server a tool can list your data sources, tables and column definitions, read saved queries, create a new query and write SQL into a query's editor. In the Mac app the server script sits inside the app bundle, and you point the tool's MCP settings at it.
+
+The app is built with Electron. Release 1.35.4 on GitHub has a Universal DMG and ZIP for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, next to builds for Windows and Linux. Bdash is free under the MIT license.

-Beagle IM connects to any standard XMPP (Jabber) server, so you can chat with contacts across providers rather than inside a single company's network. It handles one-to-one and group chats, file transfer, and audio and video calls, and conversations can be protected with OMEMO end-to-end encryption.
+Beagle IM signs in to XMPP, the chat protocol once called Jabber, so you can talk to people who use other XMPP servers and clients. Add an existing account in Preferences, or create one on a server that supports in-band registration, and start chatting.
-It is developed by Tigase on top of its TigaseSwift XMPP library. Builds are published on GitHub releases and through Tigase's own Homebrew tap.
+- Several accounts can be signed in at the same time.
+- You can join or create group chats, and history comes from the server's message archive.

-BeagleEditor Legacy is a desktop code editor written in Python. It highlights syntax for Python, C, C++, C#, CSS, HTML and JavaScript, offers autocomplete, can run a Python file, and loads plugins. The project's README says a newer editor, beagleeditor/editor, has replaced it, so this is the older line for people who already use it.
+BeagleEditor Legacy opens a source file for editing with syntax highlighting and autocomplete, and it runs Python files from inside the editor. It is the first BeagleEditor, a code editor written in Python. Its developers renamed it when they released a new BeagleEditor in a separate repository, beagleeditor/editor.
-The README gives a Mac zip and DMG in the releases, or a Python install from source. It does not state a minimum macOS version or whether the Mac build is notarized, so check both before you launch it.
+The README lists Python, C, C++, C#, CSS, HTML and JavaScript as the languages it works with. Plugins add features, and a terminal for the editor comes as one of them. The project wiki explains how plugins work.
+
+On a Mac you can run it from source: install Python 3, install the requirements with pip, and start beagleeditor.py. The same steps work on Linux and Windows.
+
+The last release, 2024.4.0.1 from February 2025, also ships a Mac DMG. The app inside is an Apple silicon build with only an ad hoc signature, and Gatekeeper rejects it, so you have to allow the first launch in System Settings. New work happens in beagleeditor/editor.

-Berthly gives Apple's open-source `container` command-line tool a windowed interface. It lists and pulls images, builds them from a Dockerfile dropped onto the window, creates and runs containers and machines, manages networks, volumes and registry logins, and streams logs or opens a terminal attached to a running container. Live resource charts and pinned favourites sit in a menu bar extra.
+Berthly puts a window and a menu bar item on top of Apple's open-source `container` tool, so you can build images, run containers and manage machines without typing `container` commands. Dropping a Dockerfile or Containerfile from Finder on the window opens the build sheet with the context and path filled in.
-Because it drives Apple's tooling, the requirements are the same: an Apple silicon Mac running macOS 26 or later with `container` installed, which Berthly can set up for you. Disk images are published on the GitHub releases page.
+- Images can be pulled, built, inspected and pruned, and each build's settings are kept for a one-click rebuild.
+- Running containers show live logs and CPU, memory and network charts, and you can open a terminal attached to one.
+- Machines, networks, volumes and private registry sign-ins are managed from the same window.
+- Pinned containers sit in the menu bar, and a notification arrives when one changes state.
+- Berthly compares pulled tags with their registries, marks stale images, and can recreate a container on the newer image with its volumes kept.
+
+A Command-K palette reaches any action. The README maps the rest of the `container` command line to the app and names the few expert flags left to the terminal.
+
+Apple's tool sets the hardware limit: `container` runs only on Apple silicon, so Berthly needs an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 26 or later and `container` itself. Berthly can install and start `container` for you. Version 1.6.1 is a Developer ID-signed and notarized DMG, and later updates install from inside the app. The developer says there is no telemetry and that registry passwords stay in the macOS Keychain.

The README explains how to get past macOS reporting the app as damaged on first launch.
+The project now publishes the app mainly as a progressive web app at app.betaflight.com. Standalone builds stay on GitHub releases for macOS, Windows, Linux and Android, and the Betaflight site announces an iPhone version in public beta. A snapshot of the unstable web version is open for testing, and the README warns that it can corrupt flight controller settings.
+
+The interface is translated into several languages. It picks the system language when a translation exists, and you can choose another on the first screen.
+
+Release 2026.6.2 has separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon one is not notarized. On first launch macOS may call the app damaged, and the README explains how to open it anyway.
+
+The firmware the app configures is used on racing and freestyle quads as well as filming, long-range, micro and wing builds.

-Betterbird distributes a modified Thunderbird desktop client. Its patch set focuses on fixes and workflow changes on top of the shared mail application.
+Betterbird takes the Thunderbird email client and applies its own patches: features Thunderbird lacks, bug fixes Thunderbird has not shipped, and fixes Thunderbird may adopt later. A feature table on the project site lists where the two differ.
-It follows its own release schedule and platform requirements. The official download page provides Mac builds and information about moving an existing profile.
+Some entries from that table:
+
+- A multi-line message list like Outlook's, vertical tabs and account colours.
+- Complex search terms and regular expressions in searches.
+- Quick search, folder search and filters that ignore diacritics.
+- The option to disable an IMAP account.
+- An Activity Manager that opens in a tab.
+
+You can install Betterbird next to Thunderbird and run both on the same profile, so going back to Thunderbird stays possible. Releases are built on Thunderbird's extended support (ESR) versions. The current one is 153.6.0esr-bb12, and the 115, 128 and 140 series have reached end of life.
+
+The Mac build exists for Intel and Apple silicon in English, and language packs add other languages. Mac builds are not notarised, and the download page gives the steps for opening them.
+
+Microsoft's App Store listing describes Outlook for Mac as one app for email, calendar and contacts across several accounts, with a premium subscription that removes ads. Betterbird's binaries are released under the Mozilla Public License, and the patches and build scripts are public on GitHub.

-BetterCmdTab expands the usual application switcher into a window-focused interface. It offers search, layout choices, and controls for managing windows directly from the switcher.
+BetterCmdTab replaces the Command-Tab switcher with one that lists windows instead of apps, so two Safari windows show up as two choices. Tap Command-Tab to switch immediately, or hold it to open the switcher as a list, an icon grid or live previews.
-Browser-tab integrations and tiling actions extend the workflow. Accessibility permission is required, and the upstream project separates stable releases from beta builds.
+- Type a letter to jump to a window. Slash starts a fuzzy search across open windows that can also find and launch installed apps.
+- Press backslash to choose one tab of a window. This works in Safari, Chrome, Arc and several other browsers, plus Finder, Terminal and iTerm.
+- Close, minimize, hide, quit or force-quit the selected app without leaving the switcher.
+- Control-Command and an arrow key tiles a window, and repeated presses cycle through half, two-thirds and one-third.
+- Scoped hotkeys open a filtered switcher with its own layout, and up to nine per-app hotkeys bring a specific app forward, starting it if needed.
+
+You can sort by recent use, name, launch order or Dock order, and limit the list to the current Space or visible windows. Settings export as JSON or sync live with a config file in `~/.config/bettercmdtab`.
+
+Without the Accessibility permission, Command-Tab does nothing. The developer says the app collects no telemetry and contacts only GitHub to check for updates.
+
+BetterCmdTab needs macOS 13 or later. Release 26.7 comes as a DMG or ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, and the DMG is notarized. Stable and beta builds are offered separately, including as two Homebrew casks.

-betterglobekey replaces the stock Globe key behaviour for people who switch keyboard input sources often. A single press cycles within a collection of input sources and a double press moves between collections, starting from whichever source is active.
+betterglobekey changes what the Globe key does when you switch keyboard input sources. You sort your input sources into collections, which are your own ordered lists, and the key moves through them.
-It runs as a background service, usually installed with Homebrew and configured in a YAML file; an optional companion app edits the configuration graphically. It needs Accessibility permission, and the Globe key must be set to do nothing in System Settings.
+- One press moves to the following source in the active collection.
+- A double press jumps to the next collection.
+- Adding Shift goes back, to the previous source or, with a double press, the previous collection.
+- A small on-screen display names the source you landed on and the collection it belongs to.
+
+Other keys, such as Caps Lock or Right Command, can act as the trigger too, which covers keyboards without a Globe key.
+
+Setup happens in Terminal. You install it with Homebrew, list your input source IDs with `betterglobekey list`, write them into `~/.betterglobekey.yaml`, and run it as a Homebrew service. The service reloads the file whenever it changes. It needs the Accessibility permission, and the Globe key must be set to Do Nothing in System Settings > Keyboard so macOS stops switching sources itself. `betterglobekey doctor` checks both.
+
+Version 4.3.2 of the optional companion app is a Universal DMG for macOS 13 or later, and each release also carries the command-line tool as separate Apple silicon and Intel binaries. If you would rather not edit YAML, the companion writes the configuration for you.

-Bitcoin Core runs a Bitcoin node and includes a graphical wallet interface. It lets users interact with the network using software and validation performed on their own computer.
+Bitcoin Core downloads every block and transaction from the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network and checks each one itself, so your wallet relies on rules enforced on your own Mac. The macOS app, Bitcoin-Qt, puts that node behind a window with a built-in wallet.
-Running a node has storage and synchronization requirements. The official project distributes the desktop application as part of its macOS release.
+Storage is the first thing to plan for. The download page puts the first sync at about 600 GB, followed by 5 to 10 GB a month. With pruning turned on, old block data is discarded and the node can fit in around 10 GB, which the project says costs no security.
+
+The release notes for version 32.1 list macOS 14 as the oldest supported system. Separate downloads exist for Apple silicon (arm64) and Intel (x86_64), each as a ZIP or tar.gz. The Apple silicon ZIP holds Bitcoin-Qt.app, signed by the Bitcoin Core Code Signing Association and notarized by Apple. Upgrading means quitting the app and replacing the copy in Applications.
+
+The download page also publishes a SHA256SUMS checksum list and GPG verification steps for each platform. Checking a download against it is optional, but the project recommends it, since a tampered copy could lose you funds.
+
+The code is under the MIT license, and the project is developed in the open on GitHub.

-Bitwarden's desktop application provides access to a password vault and tools for managing saved credentials. It can be used with the Bitwarden service or a compatible self-hosted setup.
+Bitwarden keeps your logins, secure notes, cards and identities in an encrypted vault, and the desktop app opens that vault in its own window on the Mac. You add items into folders, generate strong passwords and search across everything you have saved.
-This record covers the default GPL client code and GPL desktop build. The repository also contains separately licensed Bitwarden code, and service plans have their own terms.
+- Touch ID can unlock the vault once you turn it on under Settings, Security.
+- With the desktop app running, the browser extension can hand biometric unlock over to it.
+- Up to five accounts can stay logged in at once, so a personal and a work vault sit side by side.
+- Items shared from an organization appear next to your own, with a filter for each vault.
+
+The vault syncs across your devices through a Bitwarden account. The free individual plan includes unlimited items, use on any device and the password generator; paid plans add features such as file sharing through Send. The server can also be self-hosted, and the desktop app can log in to your own server.
+
+The download page lists macOS 14 Sonoma or later. Bitwarden is offered as a DMG, through the Mac App Store and through Homebrew. GitHub releases carry a Universal DMG and ZIP for Apple silicon and Intel. Most of the client code is GPL-3.0; code in the repository's `bitwarden_license` folder falls under the separate Bitwarden License.
+
+Coming from 1Password or LastPass, you can bring your data with Bitwarden's import tools, which have a dedicated guide for each. Once there, you keep the option of moving the vault onto a server you run yourself.

+Blender builds 3D scenes and turns them into still images, animations and video in a single application. You model or sculpt objects, give them materials and lights, and animate them. Rendering and compositing happen in the same project.
-It is useful for both artistic and technical projects. The official download page identifies the Mac hardware supported by the current release.
+- Modeling, sculpting, retopology and curve tools for building meshes.
+- Rigging and animation, plus physics simulation built on the Bullet and Mantaflow libraries.
+- Rendering with Cycles, a path tracer, alongside compositing and camera and object motion tracking.
+- A video editor and tools for creating game assets.
+- A Python API for scripts and add-ons, which Blender also uses to define its user interface.
+
+Current Mac releases need Apple silicon and macOS 13 (Ventura) or later, with 8 GB of RAM as the minimum. Intel Macs stop at Blender 4.5 LTS. That is also the last version for macOS 11.2 (Big Sur).
+
+Most of the source is GPL-2.0-or-later. Some modules, such as Cycles, are Apache-2.0, and the Blender Foundation distributes the combined program under GPL-3.0-or-later. Python scripts that use Blender's API and are shared publicly must use a GPL-compatible license. They may be sold, but buyers receive them under the GPL. The Blender logo is a trademark outside the GPL.
+
+SketchUp also models buildings, rooms and objects in 3D. Blender is free, asks for no registration and works without an internet connection.

-Blockbench combines a 3D model view with texture painting and animation controls. It is particularly convenient for low-poly models and game asset formats.
+Blockbench builds low-poly 3D models with pixel-art textures and animates them, in one editor. You can work from cuboids for a Minecraft look or shape freer meshes with the mesh tools.
-Plugins and export options extend the supported workflows. The desktop application lets you keep project files locally.
+- Textures are painted directly on the model in 3D, in a 2D editor or in an outside image editor you connect.
+- Blockbench can generate a UV map and a texture template so you can start painting right away.

+- A built-in plugin store adds tools, export formats and model generators.
+
+The code is GPL-3.0, with an exception: plugins and themes that use the Blockbench API may be proprietary or paid. Models, textures and animations you make belong to you.

+Mac releases come as separate disk images and ZIPs for Apple silicon and Intel. The 5.2.2 Apple silicon app needs macOS 12 or later and is Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+Finished models export to standard formats for rendering, 3D printing or game engines, and dedicated formats cover Minecraft Java and Bedrock Edition. The same editor also runs as a web app in the browser.

-BlockBlock watches common persistence locations and alerts when software adds itself there. It is useful for noticing background components that might otherwise be installed quietly.
+BlockBlock watches the places where macOS software registers itself to start at login or boot, and shows an alert when something new lands there. Malware often installs itself this way so that it survives a restart.
-Legitimate installers can also create persistent items. Review each alert in context and follow the official setup instructions for the required system permissions.
+Each alert names the process that made the change, the file it modified and the item it added, with links to look up the process and the item on VirusTotal. Click Allow if you trust them, or Block to have BlockBlock delete the persisted item. Either choice becomes a rule unless you tick the temporary option, and a rule can match any combination of process, file and item. Rules sit in a window opened from the menu bar icon, where you can delete them, and every response is logged to `/Library/Objective-See/BlockBlock/BlockBlock.log`.
+
+Three optional protections can be turned on during installation or later in settings. Notarization mode blocks downloaded programs that are not notarized, or every such program when its All option is on. Block Script mode stops downloaded scripts. Paste Protection blocks pastes into Terminal, or only suspicious ones when heuristics are enabled, and needs the Accessibility permission for the helper app.
+
+An alert does not mean the Mac is infected, since legitimate software persists too, BlockBlock included. The app uses Apple's Endpoint Security framework, so installing it shows an authorization prompt and needs Full Disk Access. Version 2.5.2 needs macOS 10.15 or later and ships as a ZIP holding a notarized Universal installer for Apple silicon and Intel.

-Blurt starts recording when you tap or hold a single modifier key, sends the audio to AssemblyAI's dictation API, and pastes the returned text into the focused app, restoring your clipboard afterwards. The same request cleans up filler words and punctuation, and you can save a few custom styles or a vocabulary list to steer spelling and phrasing.
+Blurt types what you say into whatever Mac app has focus. Tap Right Command, speak, tap again, and the cleaned-up text is pasted at your cursor. Holding the key instead works as push-to-talk, and Right Option or fn can be the trigger.

-Boop is a plain text window with a command palette. Paste something in, choose a script, and the text is converted in place: format JSON, decode Base64, URL-encode, change case, count characters and much more. New scripts are small JavaScript files you can write yourself.
+Boop gives you an empty text window to paste something into, then runs a script over it. Press Command-B to open the script picker, type a few letters and press Return. The script rewrites the text in place, or only the selection if you made one, and Shift-Command-B runs it again.
-The last release, 1.4.0, dates from 2021, so expect no new features. It is available free from GitHub releases and the Mac App Store.
+The built-in scripts cover small developer chores:
+
+- formatting JSON, CSS, SQL and XML
+- encoding and decoding Base64 and HTML entities
+- changing case, for example to camelCase or lowercase
+- counting characters, words and lines
+- converting dates to timestamps and numbers between hex, decimal and binary
+
+Searching for `*` in the picker lists every script. Boop has no Open or Save command. Text comes in by pasting and leaves by copying, and Command-N clears the window.
+
+You can write your own scripts. Each one is a JavaScript file that starts with a JSON comment giving its name, description, icon and search tags, followed by a `main()` function that reads and replaces the editor text. Set a scripts folder in Preferences, and press Shift-Command-R to reload them while you work. The repository's Scripts folder collects more from other users.
+
+The developer says the only network request is a check for a new version. Release 1.4.0, the latest, is a ZIP with a notarized Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that runs on macOS 10.14 or later. The same app is on the Mac App Store.

-Boring Notch uses the area around the MacBook notch for a compact set of everyday controls. Playback controls, a file shelf with AirDrop, calendar integration, and optional system overlays share the same surface.
+Boring Notch turns the MacBook notch into a panel that expands when you hover over it. It opens as a music control centre, with a live playback view and a visualizer, and the same space holds several smaller tools.
-Its settings adjust sizing and interaction behavior. The upstream releases and documentation distinguish available features from the project's roadmap.

+- A file shelf where you drop files and send them with AirDrop.
+- A mirror view.
+- Battery charge and a charging indicator.
+- Replacements for the system volume, brightness and keyboard backlight overlays.
+- Gesture controls you can customize.
+
+Boring Notch needs macOS 14 Sonoma or later and runs on Apple silicon and Intel Macs. The team has no Apple Developer account, so the app is not notarized and macOS warns about it on first launch. The README gives a Terminal command that clears the warning, and installing from the project's Homebrew tap avoids it. The latest stable download is version 2.7.3, and 2.8 is in release candidates.
+
+Settings open from a star in the menu bar. They include sizing the notch area to fit different displays. The roadmap still lists Bluetooth device activity, weather, lock screen widgets and an extension system as unfinished.

-Brave combines a Chromium-based browser with privacy-oriented browsing controls. It provides familiar tabs and extensions alongside its own set of integrated services.
+Brave blocks third-party ads and trackers on every page without an add-on, in a browser built on Chromium. A Shields icon in the address bar shows what was blocked on the current site. When a page breaks, you switch blocking off for that site alone.
-Optional services and reward features have separate terms and settings. The open-source browser project supplies macOS downloads.
+Shields does more than hide ads:
+
+- It applies filter lists from EasyList, EasyPrivacy, uBlock Origin and Brave's own lists, with a Standard and a stricter Aggressive mode.
+- It blocks cross-site cookies and gives embedded third parties temporary storage that is deleted afterwards.
+- It randomizes the browser details that sites use to fingerprint visitors, so the values change between sessions.
+- It warns before you open pages flagged for phishing or malware.
+
+Google Chrome comes from the same open-source Chromium project, so the engine underneath is shared. Brave's difference is that blocking is built in.
+
+Brave needs macOS 13 Ventura or later. Older Macs are limited to earlier releases, listed per macOS version. The browser code lives in the brave-core repository under MPL-2.0.
+
+Several services come built in. Leo is an AI assistant you reach from the address bar, free without an account, with a paid Premium tier. Brave VPN is a paid subscription. Brave Rewards pays tokens for viewing Brave's own ads, but it does nothing until you set it up.

-BrewUI is a graphical front end maintained by the Homebrew project itself.

Data comes from the local `brew` command and Homebrew's public JSON API.
+BrewUI puts Homebrew in a window. You search formulae and casks, install or upgrade them, and watch each `brew` command the app runs along with the output that comes back.

Changes go through the real command line tool, and the app offers the matching Terminal command so you can copy it. Output from `brew doctor` appears in the same console.
+
+When a command needs administrator rights, a small helper asks for your password. If Touch ID is enabled for `sudo` on your Mac, the app leaves the prompt to Touch ID instead. BrewUI can also upgrade itself.
+
+The current release requires macOS 26.2, and Homebrew itself must already be installed. It comes as a ZIP or PKG on GitHub, or through the `homebrew-app` cask.

Volunteers translate the interface, and untranslated text appears in English.
+
+Settings follow Homebrew's own `brew.env` file. Shell aliases and variables exported in your shell profile have no effect, and you relaunch the app after changing `brew.env`. The app looks for `brew` only in the default locations, `/opt/homebrew` and `/usr/local`.

-Bruno is an API client that stores collections as files, making them convenient to review and version with Git. Build requests, organize environments and run collections locally.
+Bruno builds HTTP requests, sends them and shows the responses. Every request is saved in a collection, a folder of plain-text files inside your project. Keep that folder in the same Git repository as your code and changes to requests appear in diffs and pull requests.
-This listing covers the MIT-licensed open-source project. Commercial editions have additional terms; the dog logo comes from OpenMoji under CC BY-SA 4.0.
+- Variables and environments switch the same requests between local, staging and production servers.
+- Scripts and tests run before a request or after the response to set values and check results.
+- Bruno CLI runs whole collections from a terminal or a CI job and writes reports.
+- Import brings in Postman collections and environments.
+
+Postman also sends, organizes and tests requests. Bruno keeps them only on disk and shares them through Git. The project says it has no plans to add cloud sync.
+
+You need no account. The open-source edition is free and MIT-licensed. Three paid plans, from Pro up to Enterprise, add deeper Git integration, automation, admin controls and support, and a purchase uses an email address to issue a license key.
+
+GitHub releases offer separate macOS builds for Apple silicon (arm64) and Intel (x64), as disk images, zip archives and installer packages. The dog icon comes from OpenMoji. It is licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0.

-Buffer keeps a history of copied text and images behind a global shortcut, by default ⇧⌘V. Items can be searched, pinned, bookmarked, tagged and edited inline, several can be selected and pasted together, and text in copied images is recognised on the device so screenshots become searchable.
+Buffer saves the text and images you copy and brings them back with Shift-Command-V. Type to search the history, move with the arrow keys, and press Return to paste the item into the frontmost app.
-It is built for large clips as well, with lazy previews and disk-backed storage for multi-megabyte text, and filters out rapid duplicate copies. History stays on the Mac. Separate Apple silicon and Intel builds are published on GitHub releases.
+- Copied images run through Apple's Vision text recognition on the Mac, so the words in a screenshot become searchable.
+- Items can be pinned, bookmarked with Command-B, or given coloured tags that you filter by typing # in the search field.
+- Shift with the arrow keys selects several items to paste together or delete at once.
+- Text can be edited in place in the preview pane.
+- Large clips such as logs and JSON get chunked previews, and multi-megabyte text is kept on disk.
+
+History size comes in tiers of 200 items, 1,000 or unlimited, and a noise filter drops rapid duplicate copies and short fragments. Command-slash opens a cheat sheet of the keyboard shortcuts. The developer says nothing leaves the Mac and nothing is tracked.
+
+Buffer needs macOS 13 or later. Releases come as separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads, and version 3.0.0 for Apple silicon is Developer ID-signed and notarized. A built-in updater installs new versions.
+
+Paste also keeps a searchable clipboard history with pinboards, and syncs it through a private iCloud across Mac, iPhone and iPad. Buffer has no cloud component and runs only on macOS, from the menu bar.

-Burette adds a Finder Quick Look extension for molecular files, so pressing Space on a structure shows an interactive 3D view. The companion desktop workspace opens files in tabs, browses project folders, steps through trajectories, filters compound collections by their properties, and edits molecules in the Ketcher sketcher.
+Burette opens molecular structure files in Finder's Quick Look: select a PDB, CIF, SDF, MOL2 or XYZ file, press Space, and rotate and zoom the structure in an interactive 3D view drawn by Mol*. Open the app itself and the same files load into a workspace with tabs, a project sidebar and a command palette on Command-P.
-It is a specialist tool for people working with molecular structures rather than a general-purpose viewer. Current Mac releases require Apple silicon and macOS 12 or later, and are published on GitHub and through the author's Homebrew tap.
+- Compound collections in SDF, SMILES, CSV or TSV open as an RDKit grid you can search, sort and filter with SMARTS patterns.
+- The bundled Ketcher editor sketches small molecules and sends them to the 3D viewer or a grid. Macromolecule editing is not enabled.
+- Trajectory files such as XTC, DCD and TRR play back against their topology with frame controls.
+- Mass spectra in formats like MGF and mzML open in a separate spectrum viewer.
+- A Codex plugin lets an agent open structures, focus a ligand or hide waters in the running workspace.
+
+Quantum chemistry outputs such as CUBE, LOG and VASP are converted to PDB and shown in Mol*, with a local `xyzrender` install as an optional second renderer. A VESTA handoff appears only when VESTA is installed. If previews fail to show, the command palette has a Reset Quick Look action.
+
+Current release bundles need an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 12 or later. Public downloads are ad-hoc signed, so you may have to allow Burette in Privacy & Security settings before it opens the first time. Burette installs from a ZIP or DMG on GitHub or through the author's Homebrew tap. The repository also holds an iPhone viewer you build from source yourself.

-Buzz runs OpenAI's Whisper speech-recognition models locally to turn audio and video files, or live microphone input, into text and translations. Transcripts can be reviewed alongside playback and exported as TXT, SRT or VTT subtitles.
+Buzz turns speech into text on your own computer. You drop in an audio or video file, or paste a YouTube link, pick a model, and get a transcript you can read back against the recording, translate, or save as TXT, SRT or VTT subtitles.
-Models are downloaded on first use, and processing speed depends heavily on your hardware and the model size you pick. GitHub releases include separate Apple silicon and Intel macOS builds, and a command-line interface is available for scripted jobs.
+- Live mode transcribes what the microphone hears, with a separate presentation window for showing captions to a room. The documentation warns that this is resource-intensive and can fall behind real time.
+- The transcript viewer has search, looped segments, playback speed and keyboard shortcuts.
+- Speech separation can clean up noisy audio before transcription, and speaker identification labels who said what.
+- A watch folder picks up new files automatically, and a command-line interface covers scripted jobs.
+- Plugins add extras such as AI summaries.
+
+Current macOS builds require Apple silicon and are published on SourceForge. Version 1.4.5 was the last release for Intel Macs, and its GitHub release still carries both an ARM64 and an x64 disk image.
+
+Buzz is built around OpenAI's Whisper and can switch between several engines: Whisper, Whisper.cpp, Faster Whisper and Whisper-compatible Hugging Face models, plus Parakeet, Qwen3-ASR and others. You can also send audio to the OpenAI Whisper API instead of running a model locally.

-Bye is a small menu bar utility for the end of a work session. It lists the apps that are currently running, lets you deselect any you want to keep, and quits the rest with one click.
+Bye quits the apps you have open in one go when a work session ends. Click its menu bar icon to see your running apps; deselect the ones you want to keep open, and one click quits the rest.
-It does one job and has a single release so far, distributed as a zipped app on GitHub.
+The designer built it out of frustration: once Figma, VS Code and a dozen small utilities were closed, every other open app still had to be hunted down and quit by hand. The popover uses a translucent glass look that follows Light and Dark Mode. Bye is written in SwiftUI and uses AppKit's `NSWorkspace` to manage processes.
+
+On first launch Bye asks you to click Install so it can set up a background service that watches for apps opening and closing.
+
+The only release so far is v1.0, from November 2025, shipped as a ZIP. The app inside is a Universal build for Apple silicon and Intel and sets macOS 14.6 as its minimum, although the README lists Ventura (13.0). It is signed with a development certificate and not notarized, so Gatekeeper blocks it until you Control-click the app and choose Open. The README states that versions released after 27 November 2025 are licensed under GPLv3, and the repository's LICENSE file is the GPL v3 text.

-Cakebrew puts common Homebrew tasks in a window: search formulae, install, uninstall and upgrade them, manage taps, update Homebrew and run cleanup. It is handy for people who use Homebrew but prefer not to remember every command.
+Cakebrew puts Homebrew in a window, so you can search for a formula and install it without typing `brew` commands. From the same window you can uninstall or upgrade formulae, tap and untap repositories, update Homebrew itself and run its cleanup tool. The project site adds Homebrew Doctor for finding problems and Homebrew Bundle support for exporting and importing a list of formulae.
-Its most recent release, 1.3, dates from March 2021 and the repository has seen little activity since. It still requires a working Homebrew install, and newer Homebrew features may not be reflected in its interface.
+The interface is translated into English, Portuguese, German and Simplified Chinese. Cakebrew started from Vincent Saluzzo's Homebrew-GUI project. Most of that code has since been rewritten, but his commits remain in the history.
+
+Cakebrew only drives a Homebrew install that is already on the Mac, so you still need Homebrew itself. If you run into problems with zsh as your shell, the README points to a wiki page with the fix.
+
+Version 1.3, released in March 2021, is the latest, and the last commit to the repository dates from the same month. Its ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that is signed with a Developer ID and notarized, with a minimum of OS X 10.10. You can also install it with `brew install --cask cakebrew`.

-Calibre keeps an ebook library searchable by title, author, tags, and other metadata. Its viewer, format conversion tools, and device support cover several parts of a reading workflow.
+Calibre keeps your ebooks in one library and turns them into whatever format your reader needs. You add files, fix their details, then send them to a device by cable or wirelessly, and Calibre converts a book on the way when the device needs a different format.
-It is useful for maintaining a personal book collection across sources and devices. Conversion results depend on the input format and content.
+- Metadata such as title, author, publisher, ISBN, tags, cover and summary can be downloaded from the internet or edited by hand, including custom fields.
+- Three library views let you browse by cover, title, tag, author or publisher.
+- The viewer opens all the major ebook formats, with highlights, bookmarks, a table of contents, read-aloud and search.
+- A built-in editor works on the insides of EPUB and Kindle books.
+- News recipes fetch articles from hundreds of sites or any RSS feed and package them as ebooks.
+
+Conversion handles dozens of file types. While converting, it can restyle the text, build a table of contents and clean up punctuation and margins.
+
+The Content server shares your library over the network. Anyone you allow can read books from it in a phone or tablet browser. A plugin browser inside the app installs community plugins in one click.
+
+Calibre needs macOS 14 Sonoma or later. Older Macs have their own final versions on the download page: 7.26 for macOS 13, 6.29 for Big Sur and Monterey, and earlier releases for older systems. The app is free under the GPL-3.0 license.

-CAM is a minimal camera recorder for macOS. It records video from a camera and saves each clip as an .mp4 through a bundled ffmpeg binary. Each file name is built from the subject, session and task IDs you enter, plus a date stamp. It suits quick, simple recording sessions rather than editing.
+CAM records short video tasks with research participants so they can be scored or analysed later. It was made for the CSTAR research group and keeps its window as bare as possible.
-The download is an Intel (x64) build from 2018. The repository has no README, so no macOS version or other requirements are documented, and the project has had no commit since October 2018.
+When CAM opens, it shows the camera preview straight away. Type a participant ID, a session and a task into the three fields, and the app shows the file name it will use, built from those values and a date stamp. Recording starts only when you click the red button.
+
+The preview disappears during recording so it does not distract the participant. Click the red square to stop, and the clip is saved as an .mp4 by a copy of ffmpeg bundled with the app.
+
+CAM saves to a Dropbox folder if it finds one, then to Box. You can turn cloud saving off in the menu bar, and recordings then go to ~/Library/Application Support/CAM/data/.
+
+CAM is an Electron app built for macOS only. The last release, 1.0.15 from October 2018, is an Intel build for macOS 10.9 or later, signed with a Developer ID.

-Cap combines screen, microphone, and camera capture with an editor for trimming, zooms, and presentation backgrounds. It is useful for product demos, bug reports, tutorials, and walkthroughs that need more context than a screenshot.
+Cap records your screen, camera and microphone, then lets you either share a link straight away or polish the video in an editor first. You pick between two modes before you start.
-The desktop app supports local recording and export as well as hosted sharing. Cloud plans and distribution options can be paid; check the official download and pricing pages for current terms. The repository uses AGPLv3 for the application, MIT for the cap-camera and scap crate families, and the original licenses for third-party components.
+In Instant Mode the recording uploads while you talk, so a share link is ready the moment you press stop. Studio Mode keeps the recording on the Mac and opens it in the editor, where you trim, add zooms, set a background, generate captions and choose export settings. Shared videos can carry comments, reactions, transcripts and viewer analytics, and AI features can write titles, summaries and chapters.
+
+Cap Pro is the hosted cloud plan. Cap Desktop can instead upload to an S3-compatible bucket you own or point at a self-hosted Cap server, which runs under Docker Compose. The free plan covers personal use; commercial use needs a Desktop License or Cap Pro. The getting-started steps include signing in or creating an account.
+
+Loom users can import their existing videos into Cap. The practical difference is where recordings live, since Cap can keep them on the Mac, in your own storage or on a server you run.
+
+The download page offers separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel and recommends macOS 13.1 or later. The Apple silicon DMG is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The app code is AGPL-3.0, with the camera and screen-capture crates under MIT.

-capcap captures a region or window when you double-tap the Command key, then opens an editor for arrows, numbered steps, text, highlighting and mosaic, with edits that stay adjustable. It also does scrolling captures, background beautification, pinning a capture above other windows, and a local history.
+capcap takes a screenshot when you double-tap the Command key: click a window to grab it, or drag out any region, on any connected display. The capture opens in a floating editor where you annotate it, then press Return to copy the result or Escape to cancel.
-Text recognition runs on-device, with optional translation through Apple Translation or your own service, and optional uploads to object storage you configure. The project lists macOS 14 or later; the documentation is primarily in Chinese with translations.
+- Arrows, numbered steps, text, rectangles, ellipses, a highlighter and mosaic stay editable after you place them, so you can move, recolour, rotate or delete them later.
+- Scrolling capture stitches a long page while you scroll inside the selection.
+- Beautify mode adds a gradient or wallpaper background, rounded corners, a shadow and padding.
+- A pinned capture floats above all other windows for reference.
+- A history panel keeps recent screenshots, colour picks and text, stored on the Mac, with search and starred items.
+- Select an image in Finder and press the same shortcut to edit that file instead of taking a capture.
+
+Text recognition uses Apple Vision on the Mac. On macOS 15 and later, Apple Translation can translate the recognised text on-device, or you can use your own AI or DeepL service. Uploading is optional and goes only to Tencent Cloud COS, Qiniu Kodo or Alibaba Cloud OSS buckets you configure. The developer says the app has no telemetry.
+
+capcap needs macOS 14, plus Accessibility permission for the double-tap trigger and Screen Recording permission. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, but it is self-signed and not notarized, so the README shows how to clear the quarantine flag. The interface comes in eight languages, and the main README is in Chinese, with an English translation alongside.

-macOS ignores very brief presses of Caps Lock to avoid accidental activation, which gets in the way of anyone who uses the key deliberately or remaps it for input switching. CapsLockNoDelay runs in the background without a window and makes every press count.
+When you press Caps Lock, macOS waits a short moment before the key takes effect. CapsLockNoDelay removes that delay for as long as it is running, so the key responds as soon as you press it.
-It needs Accessibility and Input Monitoring permission and is added as a login item to stay active. The README also documents a one-line `hidutil` setting that does the same job without the app. The latest release is v1.0.8 from December 2022, which the author reports working on macOS Sequoia 15.5; a Homebrew cask is available.
+The app has no window or settings. It runs in the background, and you can see it in Activity Monitor. To keep it working, add it to Login Items yourself and grant it Accessibility permission, plus Input Monitoring where macOS lists the app.
+
+Before installing anything, try the alternative the README now recommends first. Running `hidutil property --set '{"CapsLockDelayOverride":0}'` in Terminal turns off the same delay without the app, and the README says to fall back to the app only if that does not work.
+
+The latest release, v1.0.8, came out in December 2022. Its DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel with a minimum of macOS 10.15. The app is not notarized, so Gatekeeper blocks the first launch. The author reports that it still works on macOS Sequoia 15.5. You can also install it with `brew install --cask capslocknodelay`.

-Cardinal indexes the file system and returns matching paths as you type, using a query language modelled on the Windows tool Everything. Spaces combine terms, and operators narrow results by extension, size, folder, Finder tag, or file contents; quoted phrases, regular expressions, and path fragments are also supported.
+Cardinal finds files on your Mac by name. You press Command-Shift-Space from any app, start typing, and the list of matching paths narrows with each key.

-A global hotkey brings the window forward, Space opens a Quick Look preview, and keyboard shortcuts reveal results in Finder or copy their paths. The interface can switch between several languages.

+- `size:>100MB` and `dm:pastyear` filter by size and modification date.
+- `in:` sets the folder to search, `tag:` matches Finder tags, and `content:` looks for a string inside the files.
+- `regex:` takes a regular expression, and `**` searches every subfolder under a path.
+
+Slashes around a word force a prefix, suffix or exact name match, and `Library/Applicat` matches part of a path. A toggle in the window switches case-sensitive matching on and off.
+

-CartCut is a desktop video editor that uses layers rather than tracks, making it easier to stack effects on individual assets. It covers cutting, keyframed position, scale, opacity and rotation, text, chroma key, transitions, audio mixing and FFmpeg-based rendering, plus Whisper-powered automatic captions.
+CartCut edits video on layers instead of tracks, which makes it easier to stack several effects on one asset, and a project can hold as many layers as you need. You cut footage, animate position, scale, opacity and rotation with keyframes, mix audio, and render the result with FFmpeg.
-It can expose its live timeline over MCP so coding agents and other MCP clients can perform edits on request. The repository was previously named nugget-app; macOS builds for Apple silicon and Intel are on GitHub releases.
+- Common formats such as MP4, MOV, MP3 and WAV import directly, and projects save to a file.
+- Whisper generates captions automatically.
+- Chroma key, WebGL blur, shapes, text, effects and transitions are built in.
+- It records the screen and audio, and edits at 4K, 8K and other resolutions.
+
+CartCut also exposes its live timeline over MCP. Install the project's plugin in Claude Code, paste the token from the lightning icon at the bottom right of the app, and ask for edits such as cutting from a transcript or adding subtitles. Other MCP clients, including Claude Desktop, Cursor and Codex, connect through the `@cartesiancs/cartcut-mcp` bridge. Agent edits land in your undo history, so Command-Z takes them back.
+
+Final Cut Pro arranges clips on Apple's Magnetic Timeline. CartCut replaces tracks with layers and adds the agent interface, under the MIT license.
+
+The project was earlier named nugget-app. Releases on GitHub carry separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads, each as a DMG or ZIP of about 375 to 390 MB, and the app's auto-update reads from them. The source also builds for Windows.

-CaskHub puts a storefront on top of Homebrew's cask catalogue. You can browse curated shelves, categories and install-popularity charts, search across every cask, and install, update or uninstall apps with progress shown in the window instead of a terminal.
+CaskHub puts Homebrew's cask catalogue in a window laid out like an app store. You browse shelves and categories, or press Command-F to search names and descriptions, then install, update or uninstall an app with one click and watch its progress in the window.
-It also detects casks you already installed from the command line and can bring apps installed by hand under Homebrew management. If Homebrew is missing, the app walks you through setting it up. Releases are published on GitHub and the app is itself available as a Homebrew cask.
+- Top Charts rank casks by installs over 30, 90 or 365 days.
+- Adopt brings an app you installed from a DMG or another store under Homebrew, leaving the app where it is.
+- Installer-based casks that need admin rights ask for your password in a macOS dialog.
+- The Updates badge skips apps that update themselves.
+
+Every install, update and removal runs through your own `brew` binary. Anything done in CaskHub can be managed from Terminal afterwards, and casks installed from the command line show up in its library. Browsing needs only Homebrew's public API and a category snapshot bundled in the app. Installing needs Homebrew itself; if it is missing, CaskHub walks you through the setup, including custom install paths.
+
+The README says CaskHub sends anonymous usage metrics and crash reports through Sentry and session signals to TelemetryDeck, and all of it can be switched off under Settings, Privacy. CaskHub needs macOS 15.6 or later. The release ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, which updates itself through Sparkle.

-Cate opens a project folder as a zoomable canvas where editor, terminal, and browser panels can be placed side by side. It is designed around running several agent CLIs such as Claude Code or Codex at once, showing which terminals are busy, finished, or waiting for input and notifying you when one needs attention.
+Cate is a workspace for running several coding agents at once. Open a project folder and it becomes an infinite canvas where you place terminals, Monaco editors, browser panels and file viewers. Run Claude Code, Codex or another agent CLI in a Cate terminal, and each panel marks its agent as running, done or waiting for you, with a notification when one needs an answer.
-This is a young project with frequent releases. GitHub releases include Apple silicon and Intel builds for macOS, plus Windows and Linux packages.
+- Type what you are working on and Cate creates a git worktree and branch, each with its own coloured area on the canvas.
+- Terminals return with their scrollback when you reopen a project, and agents reattach with their resume commands.
+- A usage view tracks token use and API-equivalent cost per agent and model, and shows how much of your Claude Code or Codex plan limits is used.
+- Inside a Cate terminal, a `cate` command lets agents drive a browser panel, read another terminal or start other agents.
+
+Panels can float on the canvas, dock into tabs and splits, or move to their own window, and the layout is saved per project. Git tools include multi-repo source control, side-by-side diffs and ripgrep search, with Command-K for commands, panels and files.
+
+Releases include DMG and ZIP builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, alongside Windows and Linux packages.
+
+A workspace can also live on an SSH host or a WSL distro, with terminals, git and agents running on that machine. You can pair other computers or an iPhone by QR code to share a live workspace, either on the same network or through the Cate Connect service, which the project says is end-to-end encrypted. Every paired device gets full access.

-CC Switch is a desktop manager for the configuration files behind AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI. Instead of editing JSON, TOML, or environment files by hand, you save provider presets and switch the endpoint, key, and model in one step.
+CC Switch rewrites the config files of AI coding tools for you. Pick a saved provider in its window or tray menu, and Claude Code, Codex or Gemini CLI starts sending requests to that endpoint, key and model. Only those connection fields change; your plugins, hooks, MCP entries and comments stay in the file.
-It also keeps MCP servers, skills, and prompts in one place across the supported tools. The upstream README carries sponsor promotions for third-party API resellers; using those services is unrelated to the app itself.
+Twelve tools are supported, from Claude Desktop to OpenCode and Kimi Code. Five of them switch one active provider at a time. The others take several providers into their own config at once, and you choose a model inside the tool.
+
+- More than 90 presets cover hosted APIs and relays, and you can write a custom entry.
+- Local routing passes requests through your Mac, converts between Anthropic, OpenAI and Gemini API formats, and moves to the next provider in a queue when one fails.
+- MCP servers and skills are added once and synced to whichever tools you tick; prompts are kept per tool and written to files such as CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md.
+- A sessions view turns each tool's logs into readable turns and copies a resume command.
+- A usage dashboard reads the same logs to count tokens and spending per provider and model.
+
+Claude Code picks up a switch straight away. Codex, Gemini CLI and Grok Build need a restart of the CLI first. Settings live in a local SQLite database, backed up every 24 hours by default, and can sync between machines over WebDAV or S3-compatible storage.
+
+The macOS download is a Universal DMG or ZIP for Apple silicon and Intel, signed and notarized, and it needs macOS 12 or later. The project names ccswitch.io as its only official website. The README's sponsor banners advertise third-party API resellers unrelated to the app.

+The jump goes as far as each app allows. In iTerm2, Warp, cmux, Kitty, Ghostty, Terminal and Codex Desktop it lands on the exact tab, pane or thread. VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf and Zed get the project window, Claude Desktop is only brought forward, and if nothing matches cctop opens the folder in Finder. Some targets need setup: iTerm2, Ghostty and Terminal require Automation permission, and Kitty needs remote control enabled.
+
+Sessions come from Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex CLI and Desktop, opencode and pi, connected through plugins or hooks you install from Settings. Codex hooks have to be trusted once in a Codex CLI session. A second tab keeps recent projects, and Cleanup finds worktrees left by ended sessions, checks their Git state and removes the ones you choose.
+
+Each session is a small JSON file in `~/.cctop/sessions/`. The developer says there is no analytics, telemetry or session upload, and that network access is used only for update checks.
+
+cctop needs macOS 13 and must live in an Applications folder so the plugins can find its helper. Releases come in separate Apple silicon and Intel builds, both signed and notarized, and Sparkle checks for updates.

-Celestia lets you move between celestial objects and inspect them from different positions in space. Time controls and navigation tools provide a way to explore orbital motion and scale.
+Celestia is a 3D space simulator: instead of showing the sky from one spot on Earth, it lets you fly anywhere in a modelled universe and look back. It opens on Earth against a starfield. Click any object to select it, press G to travel there, and right-drag to orbit it. The mouse wheel changes your distance, and the zoom spans scales from galaxy clusters down to spacecraft a few metres across.
-It complements a ground-based planetarium by allowing free movement through a modeled universe. Additional content can expand the objects available.
+- A Tour Guide in the Navigation menu lists objects worth visiting and takes you to them.
+- The Star Browser lists the 100 nearest stars, or the brightest ones or those with planets, as seen from wherever you are.
+- The Solar System Browser shows the objects of the nearest solar system as a tree, if one lies within a light year of you.
+- You can find stars by common name, Bayer designation, or HIP, HD and SAO catalogue number.
+
+You can also move through time as well as space, and the screen shows the simulation's current time in UT. The built-in catalogue covers stars and galaxies, planets and their moons, asteroids, comets and spacecraft. You can add real or invented objects of your own by writing plain-text catalogue files for solar systems, stars or deep-sky objects and dropping them into the extras folders, or install add-ons that others have published.
+
+On the Mac, the project's download page points to the Mac App Store for version 1.7.0. The GitHub release is version 1.6.4 from November 2023, a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that is Developer ID-signed and notarized, and that is the build Homebrew installs. Celestia also runs on Windows, Linux, iOS and Android.

-Cemu emulates the Wii U and provides a graphical interface for game configuration and input settings. The project publishes its source and desktop releases.
+Cemu runs Wii U games and homebrew on a computer. The developers say most Wii U games run in a playable state, but they call the native Mac build purely experimental and not ready for issue-free play, with known slowdowns caused by MoltenVK and, on Apple silicon, by Rosetta.
-Its macOS version is explicitly experimental, with known performance and compatibility limitations. Game files are supplied separately.
+Input covers the Wii U controllers:
+
+- the GamePad, the Pro Controller and the Classic Controller are emulated, and Wiimotes partially
+- keyboards and USB controllers can stand in for them
+- a left mouse click acts as a touch on the GamePad screen
+- gyro comes from a controller that has one, or from dragging with the right mouse button
+
+The community keeps graphic packs in a separate repository, and the compatibility wiki on cemu.info lists how individual games run.
+
+The Mac download for version 2.6 is a DMG for Intel only, so Apple silicon Macs run it through Rosetta. It needs macOS 12 or later and has no Developer ID signature. Cemu is written in C and C++ and licensed under MPL-2.0, apart from bundled dependencies and a few source files that carry their own licenses.

-Cerebro opens a search bar from a global shortcut and returns apps, files with previews, web searches, calculator results and unit conversions. Additional sources can be installed as plugins from within the launcher.
+Cerebro opens a search bar when you press Control-Space and answers what you type there. Type an app name to launch it, a path such as `~/Documents/report.pdf` to see the file with a preview, a sum to calculate it, or an amount like `100 eur in gbp` to convert it. Anything else can go to your web search engine.
-It is an Electron app with configuration in a JSON file and light and dark themes. The repository still receives changes, but the latest packaged release at review time was 0.11.0 from February 2023.
+Plugins add the rest. Type `plugins` followed by a name in the same bar to find, install and manage them, and the community keeps a list of plugins on GitHub. Keyboard shortcuts cover the results: Control-1 to 9 picks an item, Control-C copies it, and Control with H, J, K and L moves through the list in Vim style.
+
+Settings open from the menu bar icon or by typing `Cerebro Settings`, where you can switch between the light and dark themes. Everything is also stored in `config.json` under Application Support, which the README warns can break the app if edited badly.
+
+Alfred covers the same ground of apps, files, web search and calculations. Its clipboard history, snippets and workflows come with the paid Powerpack. Cerebro is an MIT-licensed Electron app that gets its extras from community plugins.
+
+The latest release, 0.11.0, dates from February 2023, although the code still gets commits. Its Mac build contains only Intel code, so Apple silicon Macs need Rosetta 2 to run it. It has a minimum of macOS 10.13 and is not signed. Builds for Windows and Linux are on the same releases page.

-Changes is a graphical Git client covering everyday work: stage by hunk, commit and amend, manage branches, tags and stashes, push and pull, and search history by message, change, author or revision range. Commit message snippets help keep messages consistent.
+Changes puts everyday Git work in a Mac window. You stage the hunks you want, write a message, commit, and push the branch without typing a command.
-Optional commit-message and stash-summary generation uses Apple Intelligence. Version 2 requires macOS 26; older 1.x releases, previously named Tempo, remain available for macOS 14.6 and later.
+- Commits can be amended, reverted or checked out, and commit message snippets can be saved for reuse.
+- Branches can be created, filtered, merged, pushed and pulled.
+- Tags can be created and pushed, filtered and deleted.
+- Stashes can be applied, and Apple Intelligence can write a summary of one.
+- History search finds commits by message, by added or removed text, by author, or by a revision range such as `main..` or `v1.0.0...v2.0.0`.
+
+Apple Intelligence can also draft a commit message for you. The app is built with SwiftUI and AppKit and uses the Liquid Glass look of macOS 26.
+
+Version 2 requires macOS 26. Release 1.18 and earlier, published as Tempo, run on macOS 14.6 and later and stay on the releases page. The 2.5 download is a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. You unzip it and run it.
+
+Fork and Tower are sold after a free trial and also run on Windows. Changes is a Mac-only app, free under the MIT license.

- GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
- Version 3, 29 June 2007
-
- Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
-
- Preamble
-
- The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
-software and other kinds of works.
-
- The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
-to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
-the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
-share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
-software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
-GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
-any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
-your programs, too.
-
- When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
-price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
-have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
-them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
-want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
-free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
-
- To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
-these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
-certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
-you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
-
- For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
-gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
-freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
-or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
-know their rights.
-
- Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
-(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
-giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
-
- For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
-that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
-authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
-changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
-authors of previous versions.
-
- Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
-modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
-can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
-protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
-pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
-use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
-have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
-products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
-stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
-of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
-
- Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
-States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
-software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
-avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
-make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
-patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
-
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
-modification follow.
-
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
- 0. Definitions.
-
- "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
-
- "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
-works, such as semiconductor masks.
-
- "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
-License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
-"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
-
- To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
-in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
-exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
-earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
-
- A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
-on the Program.
-
- To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
-permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
-infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
-computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
-distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
-public, and in some countries other activities as well.
-
- To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
-parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
-a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
-
- An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
-to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
-feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
-tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
-extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
-work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
-the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
-menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
-
- 1. Source Code.
-
- The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
-for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
-form of a work.
-
- A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
-standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
-interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
-is widely used among developers working in that language.
-
- The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
-than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
-packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
-Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
-Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
-implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
-"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
-(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
-(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
-produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
-
- The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
-the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
-work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
-control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
-System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
-programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
-which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
-includes interface definition files associated with source files for
-the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
-linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
-such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
-subprograms and other parts of the work.
-
- The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
-can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
-Source.
-
- The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
-same work.
-
- 2. Basic Permissions.
-
- All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
-copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
-conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
-permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
-covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
-content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
-rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
-
- You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
-convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
-in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
-of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
-with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
-the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
-not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
-for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
-and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
-your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
-
- Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
-the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
-makes it unnecessary.
-
- 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
-
- No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
-measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
-11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
-similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
-measures.
-
- When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
-circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
-is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
-the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
-modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
-users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
-technological measures.
-
- 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
-
- You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
-receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
-appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
-keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
-non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
-keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
-recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
-
- You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
-and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
-
- 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
-
- You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
-produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
-terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
-
- a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
- it, and giving a relevant date.
-
- b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
- released under this License and any conditions added under section
- 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
- "keep intact all notices".
-
- c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
- License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
- License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
- additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
- regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
- permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
- invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
-
- d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
- Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
- interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
- work need not make them do so.
-
- A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
-works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
-and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
-in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
-"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
-used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
-beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
-in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
-parts of the aggregate.
-
- 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
-
- You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
-of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
-machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
-in one of these ways:
-
- a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
- (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
- Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
- customarily used for software interchange.
-
- b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
- (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
- written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
- long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
- model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
- copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
- product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
- medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
- more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
- conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
- Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
-
- c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
- written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
- alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
- only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
- with subsection 6b.
-
- d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
- place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
- Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
- further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
- Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
- copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
- may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
- that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
- clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
- Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
- Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
- available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
-
- e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
- you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
- Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
- charge under subsection 6d.
-
- A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
-from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
-included in conveying the object code work.
-
- A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
-tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
-or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
-into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
-doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
-product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
-typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
-of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
-actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
-is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
-commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
-the only significant mode of use of the product.
-
- "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
-procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
-and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
-a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
-suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
-code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
-modification has been made.
-
- If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
-specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
-part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
-User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
-fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
-Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
-by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
-if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
-modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
-been installed in ROM).
-
- The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
-requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
-for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
-the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
-network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
-adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
-protocols for communication across the network.
-
- Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
-in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
-documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
-source code form), and must require no special password or key for
-unpacking, reading or copying.
-
- 7. Additional Terms.
-
- "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
-License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
-Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
-be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
-that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
-apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
-under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
-this License without regard to the additional permissions.
-
- When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
-remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
-it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
-removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
-additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
-for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
-add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
-that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
-
- a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
- terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
-
- b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
- author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
- Notices displayed by works containing it; or
-
- c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
- requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
- reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
-
- d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
- authors of the material; or
-
- e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
- trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
-
- f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
- material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
- it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
- any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
- those licensors and authors.
-
- All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
-restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
-received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
-governed by this License along with a term that is a further
-restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
-a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
-License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
-of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
-not survive such relicensing or conveying.
-
- If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
-must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
-additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
-where to find the applicable terms.
-
- Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
-form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
-the above requirements apply either way.
-
- 8. Termination.
-
- You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
-provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
-modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
-this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
-paragraph of section 11).
-
- However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
-license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
-provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
-finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
-holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
-prior to 60 days after the cessation.
-
- Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
-reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
-violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
-received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
-copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
-your receipt of the notice.
-
- Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
-licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
-this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
-reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
-material under section 10.
-
- 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
-
- You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
-run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
-occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
-to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
-nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
-modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
-not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
-covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
-
- 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
-
- Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
-receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
-propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
-for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
-
- An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
-organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
-organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
-work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
-transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
-licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
-give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
-Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
-the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
-
- You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
-rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
-not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
-rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
-(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
-any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
-sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
-
- 11. Patents.
-
- A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
-License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
-work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
-
- A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
-owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
-hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
-by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
-but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
-consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
-purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
-patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
-this License.
-
- Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
-patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
-make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
-propagate the contents of its contributor version.
-
- In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
-agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
-(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
-sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
-party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
-patent against the party.
-
- If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
-and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
-to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
-publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
-then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
-available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
-patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
-consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
-license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
-actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
-covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
-in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
-country that you have reason to believe are valid.
-
- If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
-arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
-covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
-receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
-or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
-you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
-work and works based on it.
-
- A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
-the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
-conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
-specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
-work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
-in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
-to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
-the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
-parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
-patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
-conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
-for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
-contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
-or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
-
- Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
-any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
-otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
-
- 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
-
- If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
-excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
-covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
-not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
-to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
-the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
-License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
-
- 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
-permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
-under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
-combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
-License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
-but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
-section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
-combination as such.
-
- 14. Revised Versions of this License.
-
- The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
-the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
-be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
-address new problems or concerns.
-
- Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
-Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
-Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
-option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
-version or of any later version published by the Free Software
-Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
-GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
-by the Free Software Foundation.
-
- If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
-versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
-public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
-to choose that version for the Program.
-
- Later license versions may give you additional or different
-permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
-author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
-later version.
-
- 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
-
- THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
-APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
-HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
-OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
-THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
-PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
-IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
-ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
- 16. Limitation of Liability.
-
- IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
-WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
-THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
-GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
-USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
-DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
-PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
-EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
-SUCH DAMAGES.
-
- 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
-
- If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
-above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
-reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
-an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
-Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
-copy of the Program in return for a fee.
-
- END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
- How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
-
- If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
-possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
-free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
-
- To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
-to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
-state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
-the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
-
-
- Copyright (C)
-
- This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
- it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
- the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
- (at your option) any later version.
-
- This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
- but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
- GNU General Public License for more details.
-
- You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
- along with this program. If not, see .
-
-Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
-
- If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
-notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
-
- Copyright (C)
- This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
- This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
- under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
-
-The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
-parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
-might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
-
- You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
-if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
-For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
-.
-
- The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
-into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
-may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
-the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
-Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
-.

-Cherry Studio brings several AI providers and model connections into one desktop workspace. It helps organize conversations and provider settings in a single application.
+Cherry Studio puts chats with several AI models in one window. You add providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic or Gemini with your API keys, or point it at local models in Ollama or LM Studio. One question can then go to several models, with the answers compared in the same conversation.
-Remote providers may require accounts or API keys, while local models require a compatible local service. Those services and models have their own terms.
+- Agents get their own instructions, models and tool permissions, and can work with files, run commands and use MCP servers.
+- Knowledge bases built from files, folders and web pages feed answers in chats and agents.
+- Image models generate and edit pictures from prompts.
+- Quick translation works from inside other apps, next to a Quick Assistant and text selection tools.
+
+Responses render Markdown, code, formulas and Mermaid charts, and conversations can be exported. Dictation and spoken replies are available, including with local models. The project says conversation history and knowledge bases are kept on the device, with local and WebDAV backups.
+
+What works depends on your provider and setup. Some features need API credentials, downloaded models, extra dependencies or system permissions. The GitHub release has separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The Community edition is licensed AGPL-3.0, and an Enterprise edition for teams adds central model management and access controls.

-Chops finds the skill and agent definition files that coding assistants keep in scattered dot-folders and shows them in one library. It covers Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Amp, Copilot and Aider, watches the folders for changes, and offers full-text search, collections that do not touch the underlying files, and a built-in editor that understands frontmatter.
+Chops collects the skill and agent files that coding assistants keep in hidden folders and shows them in one three-column library. Pick a tool in the sidebar, choose a skill, and edit it on the right; Command-S saves straight back to the original file.
-New skills and agents can be created with the right boilerplate for each tool, browsed from remote servers, or installed from the skills.sh registry. It requires macOS 15 or later and ships as a DMG from GitHub releases.
+- It reads skills and agents for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Copilot, Aider and Amp. For Copilot and Aider it finds only project-level files, and you can add custom scan paths.
+- Full-text search covers names, descriptions and file contents.
+- Collections group skills without moving or changing the files on disk.
+- New skills and agents start from the right boilerplate for each tool.
+- It browses and installs skills from the skills.sh registry and from remote servers running OpenClaw, Hermes or other layouts.
+
+Chops watches those folders with FSEvents, so edits made elsewhere show up as they happen. A skill symlinked into several tools' folders appears once, with a badge for each tool. The editor parses YAML frontmatter and Cursor's `.mdc` rule files.
+
+The app runs outside the macOS sandbox because it needs to read dotfiles anywhere in your home folder. It requires macOS 15 Sequoia. The DMG on GitHub holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and it updates itself through Sparkle.
+
+The code is source-available under the Functional Source License with an MIT future license. You cannot use a version to build a competing commercial product, and each version turns MIT two years after release.

-Clamper changes the gaps between menu bar icons. A spacing control sets the distance between icons, and a padding control sets the clickable area around each one, either linked to the spacing or set on its own. A live strip preview shows the result, and one click restores the macOS defaults. It suits people who want to tighten a crowded menu bar or give icons more room.
+Clamper changes how much space macOS leaves between menu bar icons. One control sets the gap between icons in pixels, and a second sets the padding that forms the clickable area around each icon. Padding can follow the spacing automatically or be set on its own.
-It needs macOS 15.0 (Sequoia) or later and runs on Apple silicon only, since the release binary is arm64. The app is notarized by Apple, so it opens normally.
+While you adjust, a strip of sample icons previews the result. One click restores the macOS defaults if you want the stock layout back.
+
+Clamper needs macOS 15 Sequoia or later. Version 1.0.0, released in March 2026, is an Apple silicon build, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. You can install it from the DMG, through the developer's Homebrew tap, or build it yourself with Xcode 26.
+
+The developer credits Barbee, an App Store app for hiding menu bar items, for the starting pixel values. The README also names TighterMenubar and Sindre Sorhus's Menu Bar Spacing, two other apps that adjust the same spacing.

-Clash Party, formerly Mihomo Party, wraps the Mihomo proxy core in a desktop interface that exposes most of its common settings. It bundles both the standard Mihomo core and a "Smart" core that can choose nodes automatically, offers a TUN mode that does not require a separate service install, and supports configuration overrides, WebDAV backup and subscription handling through Sub-Store.
+Clash Party gives the Mihomo proxy core, also known as Clash Meta, a window and a menu of settings. You import a subscription, pick a node to turn the proxy on and choose a proxy mode.
-It is a client only: proxy servers or subscriptions must come from elsewhere. The project and most of its documentation are in Chinese. Builds for macOS, Windows and Linux are published on GitHub releases, and the Mac version is also available as the `clash-party` Homebrew cask.
+The app is a client, and the proxies come from the subscription you import. Its quick-start guide uses a paid proxy service that sponsors the project as the example, and the README and website promote the same service. Two cores come bundled, standard Mihomo and a Smart core whose rule override uses an AI model to pick the best node automatically.
+
+- TUN mode works out of the box, without installing a separate service.
+- Most common Mihomo settings can be changed in the interface.
+- Overrides let you rewrite any part of a configuration file.
+- WebDAV backup saves and restores the configuration in one step.
+- Sub-Store is built in for managing subscriptions.
+- Several colour themes are available.
+
+Version 2.0.4 added a simple mode. It edits subscriptions, proxy groups, rules, rule sets, DNS and domain sniffing visually, and it can manage local nodes and import node links.
+
+The project was called Mihomo Party, and each release still carries installers under both names. The Mac downloads are PKG installers, with separate Apple silicon and Intel packages for macOS 11 and later and a second pair for macOS 10.15. Windows and Linux builds come from the same releases page. The README, release notes and documentation are written in Chinese.

-ClashBar manages a mihomo (Clash-compatible) proxy core from the menu bar: import and update configuration profiles, switch nodes and test latency, choose rule, global or direct mode, and toggle the system proxy. It also shows live traffic, connections, memory use and filtered logs.
+ClashBar runs the mihomo proxy core, the Clash-compatible engine, from a panel in the menu bar. Import or select a configuration profile, start the core, pick Rule, Global or Direct mode, test node latency and switch nodes, then turn on the system proxy once a node works.
-The interface is available in Chinese and English, and releases include builds with or without the bundled core. Only one Clash-family client should control the system proxy at a time, and the project requires macOS 13 or later.
+The panel has five pages:
+
+- Proxy holds profiles, modes, the system proxy switch, nodes, latency and providers.
+- Rules shows rule counts and filters, and updates rule providers.
+- Connections lists active connections, which you can filter and close.
+- Logs filters output by level and keyword.
+- System covers language, the status bar, ports and options such as `allow-lan` and IPv6.
+
+The panel also shows live traffic and memory use. The interface is in Simplified Chinese and English, and the README and documentation site are in Chinese.
+
+Only one mihomo or Clash-family client should control the system proxy at a time. The system proxy works only when ClashBar sits in Applications, and the first time you enable it the app asks for an administrator password to install a helper.
+
+ClashBar needs macOS 13. The current release has separate Apple silicon and Intel DMGs, with or without a bundled mihomo core; the no-core builds are under 2 MB. The Apple silicon build is not notarized. Homebrew users can install it from the developer's tap.

-ClashX.Meta is MetaCubeX's fork of ClashX, a menu bar client that routes traffic through proxies according to a Clash configuration file. Rules can direct connections by domain, IP range or GeoIP, and the client supports HTTP, SOCKS, Shadowsocks, VMess and Trojan servers.
+ClashX.Meta sits in the menu bar and sends your Mac's traffic through proxy servers according to the rules in a Clash configuration file. You bring the servers and the configuration. MetaCubeX maintains it as a fork of ClashX.
-It is aimed at users who already have proxy servers and a configuration to point it at; it does not provide any service itself. Builds are published as zipped app bundles on the project's GitHub releases.
+- Local HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS proxies.
+- Shadowsocks, VMess, SOCKS5 and Trojan servers.
+- GeoIP rules, in a configuration format modelled on Surge.
+- Netfilter TCP redirect.
+
+Configuration files live in `~/.config/clash`, and `config.yaml` is the default. You can keep several files there and switch between them from the Config menu. Opening a `clash://install-config` link imports a remote configuration, and `clash://update-config` reloads the one in use.
+
+Some settings only take effect in one place. Ports belong in the `config.yaml` that the app generates, since it ignores the General section of your own files, and a change needs a relaunch. A custom menu bar icon goes in the same folder as `menuImage.png`. A `proxyIgnoreList.plist` there replaces the default list of hosts that skip the system proxy.
+
+With the menu open, Option-Command-C copies a shell command with the external IP address. Releases are a zipped app with Apple silicon and Intel code in one binary; version 1.4.47 needs macOS 13 or later.

-Claude God shows progress bars for Claude's session, weekly and per-model limits in the menu bar, with countdowns to each reset and a burn-rate estimate of when you will run out. The icon can change colour as limits get tight, and a notification can tell you when a quota resets.
+Claude God shows how much of your Claude plan you have used, from the menu bar.

+
+Other tabs browse and install Claude Code plugins, and an optional helper prints your usage inside the Claude Code status line. The developer says credentials stay on the Mac and that there is no telemetry.
+
+Claude God needs macOS 13. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. That build is not signed with a Developer ID, so the README has you clear its quarantine flag with `xattr -cr` before the first launch. Homebrew users can install it from the developer's tap.

-ClaudeBar shows how much of each AI coding plan is left from the menu bar. Despite the name it covers about twenty providers, including Claude, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Cursor, Kimi and OpenRouter, each switched on separately and showing its own session, weekly, monthly or credit limits.
+ClaudeBar tells you how much of each AI coding plan you have left before you hit a limit. Open the menu bar item and every provider you track appears with its remaining share and a countdown to the next reset; a notification arrives before a quota runs out.
-Countdowns show when each window resets, and a notification arrives before a quota runs out. Signed and notarized builds for macOS 15 or later are on GitHub releases and in Homebrew.
+Claude is one of almost thirty providers, alongside Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Cursor, Kimi, Windsurf, OpenRouter and AWS Bedrock. Each is switched on separately in Settings, and each reports what that service exposes: a five-hour session window, a weekly or monthly limit, credits or a spend total. Claude, for example, reads its numbers through the `claude` command-line tool or the OAuth credentials that `claude login` leaves in the Keychain, so Claude Code has to be installed and signed in.
+
+- A forecast under each countdown says whether the window lasts until it resets at the current pace.
+- The menu bar item can be a plain status icon, or show a percentage and countdown for as many as three providers.
+- Webhooks send quota alerts to Slack or to a URL you run.
+- Extensions add any quota source that a script can print.
+
+Several Codex accounts can be tracked side by side, each with its own quota. There is also a view for the MacBook notch and gauges for the Touch Bar.
+
+ClaudeBar requires macOS 15 or later. Homebrew installs it with `brew install --cask claudebar`, and GitHub releases carry a signed, notarized DMG.

-Claudoscope reads the session files Claude Code and Claude Cowork leave on your Mac and presents them in a menu bar widget and a dashboard. You can browse and replay conversations, compare projects, and review cost and tool-use analytics.
+Claudoscope gives you a view of what Claude Code has been doing. It reads the session files Claude Code keeps under `~/.claude/projects/`, plus the Cowork sessions stored by the Claude desktop app, and shows them in a small menu bar widget and a larger dashboard. New activity appears as the files change, without a server process.
-It can also send notifications when sessions need attention, alert on spending, and scan transcripts for leaked credentials. Processing happens locally; the app is only relevant if you already use these Claude tools.
+- Opt-in session notifications tell you when Claude is blocked on a permission or plan prompt or has finished, and spend alerts watch estimated costs against per-session, rolling, daily and monthly limits.
+- A secret scanner looks through transcripts for leaked credentials such as AWS keys, private keys, tokens and passwords, popping an alert when a new one lands and sweeping your whole history in the background.
+- The session viewer can replay a session on a time axis, bookmark turns, and resume a session in your terminal.
+- The dashboard covers analytics, per-file diffs of what Claude changed, plans, a timeline, and a health check of your Claude Code configuration.
+
+A hardening option applies a security baseline to your Claude Code setup in one click. There is also a read-only MCP server, which stays disabled until you switch it on and means you can ask Claude Code about your usage directly. The costs it shows are estimates from built-in pricing tables.
+
+The developer says everything runs locally, with no telemetry and no account, and that the only network call is the update check, which you can turn off. Claudoscope has nothing to show unless Claude Code is installed and has been run at least once.
+
+It needs macOS 14 or later and an Apple silicon Mac; Intel is not supported. Version 1.4.1 ships as a DMG that is Developer ID-signed and notarized, and the app updates itself from GitHub releases.

-ClawdHome manages multiple instances of the OpenClaw and Hermes Agent engines on a single Mac. Each agent gets its own macOS user account, data directory and browser profile, so processes, files and Keychain items stay separated by the operating system, and privileged actions go through a dedicated helper rather than the app itself.
+ClawdHome runs several OpenClaw and Hermes Agent instances on one Mac and gives each one a separate macOS user account. That account holds the agent's runtime, data directory and Keychain items, so a misbehaving agent is fenced in by ordinary user permissions instead of sharing your login.
-One panel covers setup, gateway start and stop, file management, diagnostics, backups and scheduled tasks. It requires macOS 14 or later, and Apple silicon and Intel installer packages are published on GitHub.
+The SwiftUI panel never runs privileged commands itself. User creation, process control, installs and file operations go through a helper that runs as a LaunchDaemon and accepts a fixed set of XPC calls.
+
+- A setup wizard, gateway start and stop, config hot-reload and Cron-style scheduled tasks live in the same window.
+- Each isolated instance gets its own managed browser layer, so cookies and CDP sessions stay out of your main browser profile.
+- Backups can cover one instance or all of them, with restore to an earlier point.
+- API keys sit in a separate Keychain, and one model profile can be applied to many agents, including custom providers and local model services.
+- Agents connect to chat channels such as Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp, Feishu and WeChat.
+
+ClawdHome needs macOS 14 or later. Releases ship as separate installer packages for Apple silicon and Intel; the Apple silicon package for 1.13.0 is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The interface is in English and Chinese.
+
+OpenClaw and Hermes can run side by side with their own settings while sharing the key store and backups. A diagnostics center checks permissions, configuration, gateway and network, and a watchdog restarts instances that fail. The developer says the core features work offline and nothing leaves the Mac unless you turn on a cloud service.

-ClearDisk scans the places where build tools and package managers pile up data, such as Xcode DerivedData, simulator images, npm and Homebrew caches, Docker, Cargo, and Gradle. Each entry comes with a short explanation and a risk level, and a project scanner looks for stale build folders inside your code directories.
+ClearDisk sits in the menu bar showing how full your disk is, and it measures the caches that build tools and package managers leave behind. Open it to see Xcode DerivedData, simulators, npm, Homebrew, pip, Cargo, Gradle, Docker and dozens of other known locations with their sizes, then pick what to clean.
-Selected items go to the Trash rather than being deleted outright, so they stay recoverable until you empty it. The menu bar indicator also keeps an eye on overall disk usage. Read the descriptions before cleaning: some caches are cheap to rebuild, others mean large downloads.
+- Every cache carries a one-line explanation of what it holds and what happens after removal.
+- A risk label marks each entry as safe to rebuild, costly to re-download, or possibly holding data you cannot get back. Docker's container data is in the last group.
+- A project scanner looks through your code folders for stale build output such as `node_modules`, `.next` and other per-project artifacts.
+- DerivedData is broken down by project, and the app warns you when Xcode is running before it touches Xcode caches.
+
+Cleaning moves items to the Trash, so they can be restored until you empty it, and the app counts reclaimed space separately from space merely sent to the Trash. The menu bar icon changes color at 80 and 90 percent usage, with a notification at each step, and a forecast estimates when the disk will fill from its recent history.
+
+ClearDisk needs macOS 14 or later. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and updates arrive through Sparkle. A Homebrew cask is available from the developer's own tap.
+
+Cache cleanup checks only ClearDisk's list of known locations and does not index the whole disk. The developer says its only network traffic is the update check against GitHub Releases, with no analytics.

-Clementine puts a music library and playlist queue in one desktop player. Search your collection, organize listening sessions, and access supported online audio sources.
+Clementine plays your music library and organizes it, from tags and cover art to playlists in tabs. Point it at your music folders, search the library, and drag songs into a playlist.
-It is useful for people who keep music files locally and prefer a dedicated library interface over a browser-based player.
+Beyond local files it reaches many outside sources. It streams internet radio from SomaFM, Digitally Imported, Radio-Browser.info, Icecast and others, and plays music from Jamendo, Magnatune, Subsonic and Plex servers. It also finds songs you uploaded to Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive or Seafile.
+
+- Smart and dynamic playlists, with import and export of M3U, XSPF, PLS, ASX and WPL files and support for CUE sheets.
+- Tag editing, missing tags from MusicBrainz, and missing cover art from Last.fm, MusicBrainz or Discogs.
+- Transcoding to MP3, Ogg Vorbis, Opus, FLAC, AAC, WAV and other formats.
+- Podcasts through gpodder.net, an equalizer, projectM visualizations and lyrics shown in time with the song when they are timed.
+
+Clementine is inspired by Amarok 1.4. It runs on Windows and Linux too, and a new numbered release comes out in any week with changes users will notice. The 1.4.4 Mac DMG is for Apple silicon only and needs macOS 26 or later. The app inside is Developer ID-signed and notarized; the DMG itself is not signed.
+
+It scrobbles to Last.fm. You can copy music to an iPod, MTP device or USB player. It can play on a Chromecast, and an Android app, an iPhone or iPad, or the command line can control it.

-Clipbara records what you copy and presents it as a card strip along the bottom of the screen, opened with a keyboard shortcut. Clips can be previewed with Quick Look and kept in pinboards for reuse.
+Clipbara keeps a history of everything you copy. Press Shift-Command-V and a strip of clip cards slides up from the bottom of the screen while the app you were using keeps focus. Type to search, pick a clip with the arrow keys or a click, and it lands on the clipboard ready for Command-V.
-The free GitHub DMG and the paid Mac App Store build come from the same source but differ: pasting directly into the active app and the clip queue are DMG-only, while iCloud sync and the iPhone app require the App Store version.
+- It records images, files, links, colors, HTML and plain or rich text, and search filters by type and date.
+- Space opens Quick Look on a clip, and Command-E edits a text clip in place.
+- Pinboards hold the clips you reuse, numbered so Command-1 to Command-9 switch between them.
+- Clip Queue lets you copy several items and paste them back in order.
+- `clipbara://` links open the panel or start a queue from Raycast, Alfred or Shortcuts.
+
+Apps on the excluded list, a password manager for example, never reach the history. The developer says the history stays on the Mac unless you turn on iCloud sync, and that there is no account or analytics.
+
+The same code produces two builds. The GitHub DMG is free, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and can paste straight into the active app once you grant Accessibility. The Mac App Store build is sandboxed and sold after a trial, and it alone offers iCloud sync and the iPhone companion, which needs iOS 26. Both need macOS 14 or later; the DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. Releases up to v1.1.11 carry the old name, PasteClip.
+
+Paste also keeps a searchable history with pinboards, and it syncs across Mac, iPhone and iPad for a subscription or a lifetime plan. Clipbara's DMG build is free and has no sync.

-ClipPocket keeps a searchable history of everything you copy. It recognises item types such as URLs, colours, code, files and images, and lets you pin the items you use most. It opens from a menu bar icon or with ⌘⇧V, and it can paste the selected item straight into the frontmost app. The history stays on your Mac, since the project has no cloud sync or external servers.

-Clipy stores clipboard history and provides a separate menu for saved snippets. It gives repeated text a convenient place to live instead of requiring you to find and copy the original each time.
+Clipy keeps a history of what you copy and a separate menu of saved snippets. Press Shift-Command-V for the main menu, Control-Command-V for the history alone, or Shift-Command-B for the snippets, then pick an entry to paste it.
-The main menu, history, snippets, and settings have configurable shortcuts. Its upstream documentation explains Accessibility permissions and data handling.
+The history holds plain text, images and other clipboard formats. Snippets are pieces of text you save once and paste at any time from their own menu.
+
+Every shortcut can be changed in Settings. The shortcut that opens Settings, Control-Option-Shift-Command-V, can be changed but not removed, so you can still reach Settings with the menu bar icon hidden. Clipy needs the Accessibility permission, which macOS ties to the app's code signature.
+
+History, snippets and preferences are stored on the Mac, and the privacy policy says Clipy does not send copied content or snippets to any server. The only network traffic it lists is Sparkle update checks to clipy-app.com and Firebase analytics and crash reports. Both Firebase features are on by default and can be turned off in Preferences. Encryption of the local history is not promised, and the policy recommends FileVault for Macs holding sensitive data.

+
+- BN0021 in black or brown
+- BN0032 in white or black
+- BN0095 in black or silver
+- BN0111 Sports in blue, orange, grey, black or light grey
+
+Unzip the download and double-click `Clock.saver` to install it. The `clocksaver` Homebrew cask does the same.
+
+Version 0.7.3 from June 2023 is the latest release, and the repository has had no commits since. The bundle is Universal for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with the developer's Developer ID and notarized, and requires macOS 10.14.6 or later. Clock.saver is free under the MIT license.
+

-Cocoa-Way receives the Wayland display protocol on the Mac and draws Linux applications with Metal, either as a whole desktop in one window or as individual app windows. It can attach to a Linux machine over Waypipe and SSH, or launch saved application profiles through Apple Container, Docker-compatible engines or OrbStack.
+Cocoa-Way lets you run Linux GUI programs on a Mac and see them in Mac windows. It accepts the Wayland display protocol and draws what Linux apps render through Metal, with Retina scaling. The Linux side can be a remote machine reached over SSH with Waypipe, or a container started on the Mac itself.
-Clipboard text and images, audio, keyboard, pointer and gestures are forwarded between both sides, and a companion command-line tool exposes the same controls for scripting. The container runtime is installed separately. GitHub releases provide DMG and ZIP downloads labelled for arm64.
+- Desktop mode puts a whole Linux session, such as the niri or Hyprland compositor, in one window.
+- Rootless mode gives each Wayland app its own macOS window that you move, resize, minimize and make full screen as usual.
+- Saved application profiles start an image through Apple Container, a Docker-compatible engine or OrbStack, with logs, a terminal and resource limits in the same panel.
+- Text and PNG images cross the clipboard in both directions, and audio, keyboard, pointer and gestures are forwarded.
+
+A menu bar icon holds connections, displays and environment checks. The `cocoa-wayctl` command reaches the same controls from scripts, and an optional MCP adapter is read-only unless you start it with an explicit flag.
+
+The 2.1.2 release is a DMG or ZIP for Apple silicon only. Its app declares macOS 26 as the minimum. The build is ad-hoc signed, not notarized, so the first launch has to be allowed under Privacy & Security. A Homebrew tap is also available. The code is GPL-3.0.
+
+Apple Container gives no GPU passthrough, so Linux apps may render on the CPU before the frames reach Metal. X11 programs need Xwayland inside Linux. Waypipe has to be installed on the Mac and on the Linux side, and the container runtime is a separate install. The project says latency is still being worked on.

-CocoaRestClient is a small HTTP client for testing REST endpoints. You can set the method, headers, authentication and request body, then read a formatted JSON, XML or MsgPack response alongside its headers and latency. Saved requests live in a sidebar with folders.
+CocoaRestClient sends a request to an HTTP endpoint and shows you the response formatted. You choose GET, PUT, POST, DELETE or HEAD, fill in headers, URL parameters and a body, and read pretty-printed JSON, XML or MsgPack next to the response headers and the time it took.
-It suits quick checks when curl output is hard to read but a full API platform is more than you need. Development has slowed: the most recent binary release on GitHub dates from 2021, so check that it still meets your needs on current macOS.
+- The body can be raw text or a list of key and value pairs, and files can go up as multipart form data.
+- HTTP basic and digest authentication are built in.
+- Requests save to a sidebar organized in folders, and they can be imported and exported.
+- A diff tool compares the bodies of two response tabs.
+- Command-R repeats the last request.
+
+Its author wrote it as curl with a light interface: the same quick calls, with output that is easier to read and bodies you can save. SSL works with untrusted certificates too, and following redirects is optional. Saved requests can be shared between computers through a shared folder.
+
+Version 1.4.7 from August 2021 is the latest release, and the repository has had a single commit since, in October 2024. The download is a DMG with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel; the app is notarized and requires macOS 10.14 or later. There is no App Store version.

-CodeEdit brings a native macOS interface to general-purpose code editing. Its workspace combines source navigation with tools for terminals and version control.
+You open a project folder in CodeEdit and edit its files in tabs, with a file navigator, a terminal and task output in the same window. The editor is written in Swift for macOS and aimed at code that does not target Apple platforms; its developers describe it as a supplement to Xcode rather than a replacement.
+
+Its feature list names syntax highlighting, code completion, find and replace across a project, snippets, task running, debugging, Git integration, code review and extensions. The README still warns that CodeEdit is in development and not ready for production work.
+
+Version 0.3.6 comes as a DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. It needs macOS 13 or later, and both the disk image and the app are signed with a Developer ID and notarized. CodeEdit is MIT-licensed, and the team says it will stay free and open source.
+
+Recent releases show where it stands:
+
+- Version 0.3.5 added a minimap, folding by indentation and a visual guide at a chosen column.
+- Since 0.3.5, a single command hides the whole interface around the editor.
+- Version 0.3.6 runs tasks in a full terminal emulator, started with Command-R and stopped with Command-period.
+- Open files reload when another program changes them, and CodeEdit reopens your files and tabs where you left them.
+
+A menu in settings installs language servers, and the 0.3.6 release notes call that part experimental and likely to change.
-The project is evolving, so check the current release for language and debugging support needed by your project. macOS disk images are available upstream.

-CodeIsland expands from the notch into a status panel for every running coding agent session, showing what each one is doing, its latest reply and its progress. When an agent needs permission or asks a question, you can respond from the panel instead of hunting for the terminal it lives in.
+CodeIsland turns the MacBook notch into a status bar for your AI coding agents. Each session gets a card with its current tool, latest reply and task progress, so you can see which one is working, waiting or done without switching windows. When an agent asks for permission or poses a question, you answer on the card, or click once to jump to its terminal tab, IDE window or tmux pane.
-It installs hooks for a long list of command-line and editor-based agents, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI, and keeps its data on the Mac. The project lists macOS 14 or later; downloads are a DMG on GitHub releases or the developer's own Homebrew tap.
+- On launch it writes hooks into the config of each tool it detects, from Claude Code and Codex to Cursor, Gemini CLI and OpenCode, and each can be switched off.
+- Optional global shortcuts approve, deny or skip a request; Command-Shift-I opens and closes the panel.
+- Sessions on SSH hosts appear next to local ones after a small helper is installed on the server.
+- Optional pushes go to services such as ntfy, Slack or Telegram, by default only while you are away from the Mac.
+
+Some tools need a step of their own. Codex ignores new hooks until you review them with `/hooks`, and Hermes asks once per hook. Tools whose hooks cannot carry a decision, such as Google Antigravity, are shown read-only. Cowork sessions in Claude Desktop are read from local files, and their approvals stay in Claude Desktop.
+
+The developer says events stay on the Mac unless you turn on plan-limit lookups, webhooks or pushes; Sparkle update checks are the only default network traffic.
+
+CodeIsland needs macOS 14 or later and works on Macs without a notch too. Version 1.0.41 ships as a DMG holding a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, or as a cask from the developer's Homebrew tap.
+
+A companion iPhone and Apple Watch app is on the App Store, with its source in the same repository.

-CodexIsland draws a small pill over the MacBook notch that expands on hover and click to show quota windows, reset times and usage history for one or two coding assistant subscriptions, including Claude Code and Codex. Macs without a notch get a menu bar pill instead.
+CodexIsland shows how much of your AI coding subscription is left, in a black pill over the MacBook notch. Hover over it to see the 5-hour percentage and reset time, and click to open a panel with every quota window the provider reports. Codex, Claude Code, Grok, Muse Code and Antigravity are supported, and up to two can share the island.
-It reads the credentials already stored by each provider's command-line tool and asks the provider's own service for usage data; cost figures are estimates from local logs. The app is unsigned, so the first launch needs manual approval.
+- The expanded panel swipes between Usage, Cost and Overview, the last a year-long activity calendar.
+- Cost estimates spend and token counts by reading the session logs that Claude Code, Codex CLI and OpenCode leave on the Mac.
+- Optional warning thresholds tint the island as a 5-hour window nears its limit.
+- A share card turns a chosen period into a PNG with your estimated API value or token count.
+
+It asks for no passwords or API keys. It reads the credentials the providers' command-line tools have already stored, such as `~/.codex/auth.json` or the Claude Code Keychain item, and queries each provider's own service. For Claude you have to log in with `claude` in Terminal first, because Claude Desktop alone does not create those credentials. Cost figures are estimates, not your bill. Polling runs every 5, 15 or 30 minutes. The developer says the app has no telemetry or crash reporting.
+
+Version 0.4.3 is a DMG with a Universal app that needs macOS 13 or later. It is ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so you allow it under Privacy & Security or remove the quarantine flag. The Homebrew cask removes that flag for you, and Sparkle handles updates.
+
+Macs without a notch get a menu bar pill, and the island can be pinned to any connected display. There is no Dock icon; a gear in the panel opens settings.

-Cog plays a very wide range of audio: common lossy and lossless formats, cue sheets and playlists, tracker modules, video game music formats, SID and AdLib files, and MIDI through built-in synthesizers or Audio Units. Playback options include ReplayGain, an equalizer, and speed and pitch control.
+Cog plays your music from a playlist window, and its plugins open far more than MP3 and FLAC. Tracker modules, video game rips and MIDI files play in the same list as AAC, Opus, WavPack and anything Core Audio or FFmpeg can decode.
-The direct download updates itself with Sparkle, and the project also links a Mac App Store edition. Cog's plugins include third-party libraries with their own licenses; the README lists macOS 12 or later.
+- Game music comes through Game_Music_Emu, vgmstream and libvgm, along with C64 SID files, AdLib tunes and the PSF family.
+- MIDI plays through built-in SoundFont, OPL3 FM or Roland SC-55 synthesizers, the last using a ROM set you supply, or through Audio Unit instruments.
+- Cue sheets, M3U and PLS playlists, files inside archives, and HTTP or HLS streams open directly.
+- ReplayGain works by album or track with clipping prevention, and an equalizer has presets.
+- Speed and pitch shift with time-stretching from Rubber Band or Signalsmith Stretch. A plain varispeed mode changes both together, like a turntable.
+
+An exclusive mode takes over the output device and switches it to each track's sample rate. Cog also shows synced lyrics, read from tags or fetched from LRCLIB, and scrobbles to Last.fm and ListenBrainz. With Remote Control turned on, on macOS 13 or later, the bundled `cog-mcp` tool lets MCP clients run playback and the playlist.
+
+Because the app is sandboxed, it reads only folders you grant. Music, Downloads and Movies are allowed from the start. Add other music folders under Settings, General.
+
+Cog needs macOS 12 or later. The direct download from cog.losno.co is a ZIP holding a notarized Universal app that updates itself with Sparkle, and a Mac App Store edition is also available. Christopher Snowhill forked the player in 2013 after its original development stopped and has maintained it since.

-Colorpicker is a compact window for working with colour values. It includes a screen eyedropper, shading bars for hue and lightness, a random colour button, and Colorsbook for saving palettes, and it can be pinned above other windows.
+Colorpicker keeps a small colour window open next to your other apps. You set a colour with sliders and code fields, or pick one off the screen. Press Command-S and it goes into Colorsbook for later.

+- Focus mode hides the sliders and makes the menu more transparent, which helps when you compare colours.
+- Random picks a colour for you.
+

-Comfy Desktop installs and manages ComfyUI environments from a desktop application. It provides a route into node-based workflows for supported generative models and tools, and can keep several independent setups side by side.
+Comfy Desktop sets up ComfyUI on your Mac and starts it for you, so you can build node-based image and video workflows without installing Python, PyTorch or Git by hand. On first launch it walks you through creating an install, downloads a ready environment, and opens ComfyUI when you press launch.
-The macOS build targets supported Apple Silicon systems. The app is available under AGPL-3.0-or-later, with a separate commercial license offered by Comfy Org. Models and custom nodes have their own licenses, hardware requirements, and installation needs.
+Each install is separate, with its own ComfyUI version, models and custom nodes, and you can keep as many as you like side by side.
+
+- Updates to ComfyUI and its custom nodes happen in place, per install, without a terminal or a fresh download of the environment.
+- A snapshot backs up an install so you can roll back after an update or a custom node breaks it.
+- Existing portable, Git or older desktop installs of ComfyUI can be adopted and migrated where they are.
+- Repositories clone through a small bundled Python with `pygit2`, so a Mac without Git still works.
+
+The app updates itself as well. Once an install is set up, ComfyUI can run with no internet connection. Models take most of the disk space, and the download page suggests planning a dedicated drive as a library grows.
+
+On the Mac, Comfy Desktop runs on Apple silicon only. The download page notes that more graphics memory allows bigger models and larger batches. Comfy Desktop is dual-licensed: AGPL-3.0 or later, or a commercial license from Comfy Org.

-CompressO takes a video or image and produces a much smaller copy, handing the actual encoding to bundled tools such as FFmpeg. Everything happens on the machine: apart from its built-in update check, the app makes no network requests.
+CompressO makes video, image and audio files smaller on your own computer. Drop a file on its window, pick a preset or set a target size such as 10 MB, and it searches for the best quality that fits under that size. The compression itself runs through tools such as FFmpeg.
-It is a Tauri app published for macOS, Windows and Linux. GitHub releases carry separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel Macs; the builds are not notarized, so macOS asks for confirmation on first launch.
+- Trim, crop, rotate, flip and straighten with a live preview before compressing, and compare the result with the original before you save it.
+- Convert between formats, turn videos into GIFs, extract a video's audio, and convert SVG to PNG, JPEG or WebP.
+- Set the codec, quality, resolution, frame rate and speed for video, and add, keep or extract subtitle tracks.
+- Watch a folder, such as your screen recordings, so new files are compressed as they arrive.
+
+On a Mac you can also drop or paste files on its menu bar icon. A `compresso` command, installed from Settings > CLI, compresses from Terminal with your presets. An MCP server lets AI agents such as Claude call the same compression.
+
+The developer says the app works offline and makes no network requests apart from its update check. The project site adds that it needs no account and sets no file size limits.
+
+The site lists macOS 13 or later, with separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The builds are not notarized, and the README says so. Gatekeeper can report the app as damaged or from an unverified developer, and the README's fix is to run `xattr -cr` on the app. The Homebrew cask from the developer's own tap removes the quarantine flag for you.

-Configs collects the configuration files scattered around a home folder, such as shell profiles, Git settings and Vim configuration, and lets you edit them in a syntax-highlighted editor. Files can be grouped and given colour labels, and editing a shell profile can re-source it on save.
+Configs gathers the dotfiles in your home folder into one window, so you can open `.zshrc`, `.bashrc`, `.gitconfig` or `.vimrc` without hunting for hidden files. It finds the common ones on its own. You can add others by importing several at once or dragging them onto the window.
-Every change is recorded with Git behind the scenes, so earlier versions can be compared and restored. The interface is available in English and Chinese, requires macOS 13 or later, and is distributed as a disk image on GitHub releases.
+Save a shell profile such as `.zshrc` and Configs runs `source` on it, so the change applies straight away. Every edit is also committed to a Git history in the background. From there you can view earlier versions, compare them as a diff and restore one with a click.
+
+- The editor highlights syntax for several file types, with line numbers, search, zoom and dark mode.
+- Command-/ toggles a comment, Command-F searches and Command-S saves.
+- Short coloured text tags, pinned files and custom groups keep a long list in order.
+- Right-clicking a file opens it in Finder, Terminal, VS Code or another app.
+
+Configs needs macOS 13 or later. The release is a small DMG holding an app built for Apple silicon only. It is signed with a development certificate and not notarized, and the README tells you to clear the quarantine flag with `xattr` after copying it to Applications. You can also build it yourself in Xcode from the SwiftUI source.
+
+The interface comes in English and Chinese. It follows the system language, and you can switch it from the About page.

-ConsoleMini is a big-screen game library meant for a Mac connected to a TV. It lists games by system and hands them to installed emulators such as DuckStation, PCSX2, PPSSPP or RetroArch, so the whole session can be driven from a game controller.
+ConsoleMini puts a full-screen game library on a Mac hooked up to a TV. You pick a system with a controller, choose a game, and ConsoleMini starts it in the matching emulator. The emulators do the actual playing, and they handle in-game controller input themselves.
-It does not include emulators, BIOS files or games; those are installed separately. The Electron app is early, at version 0.1, with Apple silicon and Intel disk images on GitHub releases.
+Each system maps to one emulator, installed separately, mostly through Homebrew casks:
+
+- PS1 through DuckStation, PS2 through PCSX2 and PS3 through RPCS3.
+- PS4 through shadPS4, which is experimental on macOS, so few games run.
+- PSP through PPSSPP, N64 through Mupen64Plus and GBA through mGBA.
+- SNES and NES through RetroArch cores, and Dreamcast through Flycast.
+
+The Settings tab shows which emulators are installed and can install the missing ones with a script. A save-state panel lists each emulator's save folder with file counts and a button to reveal it in Finder. ConsoleMini only reads those folders; saving and loading stay with each emulator's own hotkeys.
+
+No games or BIOS files come with it. The app is built with Electron and is still at version 0.1. Releases include Apple silicon and Intel DMGs and ZIPs. The Apple silicon build of 0.1.3 needs macOS 11 or later and is signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+Menu navigation works with any pad the HTML5 Gamepad API sees, including DualShock 4, DualSense, Xbox and 8BitDo controllers. A kiosk script starts the launcher at login, turns off sleep and hides the Dock, so the Mac boots straight into the library.

-CopyQ keeps a clipboard history and lets you organise saved items into tabs, add notes and tags, edit entries in place and paste them back with global shortcuts. Beyond plain text it stores HTML, images and custom formats.
+CopyQ saves everything you copy, including text, HTML, images and other formats, and files it into tabs you set up yourself. Open the list from the menu bar icon, type to filter it, and press Return to paste the selected item into the window you were using.
-Its strength is automation: custom commands, a command-line interface and a scripting API can transform or route clipboard content. That depth comes with a busier, cross-platform Qt interface than single-purpose Mac clipboard tools. Exclude password managers and other sensitive apps before keeping a long history.
+- You can edit, sort, reorder, drag and delete items, and add notes and tags to them.
+- Global keyboard shortcuts can paste items or run your own commands.
+- Commands can run from a menu, from a shortcut or whenever the clipboard changes, and a public repository collects ready-made ones.
+- The `copyq` command-line tool and a scripting API read, add and copy items from the Terminal or scripts while the app is running.
+- Copies from chosen windows, such as a password manager, or containing chosen text, can be ignored.
+- An optional Vim-like editor uses keyboard shortcuts.
+
+The interface is built on Qt, and the same app runs on Linux and Windows. Saved items come back when CopyQ next starts.
+
+CopyQ supports macOS 13 and later, and Homebrew installs it with `brew install --cask copyq`. The Apple silicon DMG of version 17 is not signed with a Developer ID. If macOS reports the app as damaged, the README gives commands to clear the quarantine flag and re-sign it locally.
+
+Paste syncs its history across Mac, iPhone and iPad. CopyQ has no mobile version; it trades that for scripting, a command line and builds for Linux and Windows.

-Core-Monitor reads sensor data from the SMC and system APIs and shows it in the menu bar, a dashboard, and on the Touch Bar where present. It covers CPU, GPU, memory, battery, thermals, power draw, fans, network and disk.
+Core-Monitor shows what an Apple silicon Mac is doing inside: CPU, GPU, memory, battery, temperatures, power draw, fan speed, network and disk. You choose which readings sit in the menu bar, click for a compact popover, or open the full dashboard window.
-Fan control goes through a privileged helper that hands control back to macOS when you stop or the app disconnects. The project supports only Apple silicon and macOS 13 or later. It is available as a direct download and on the Mac App Store.
+The numbers are read from Apple's SMC sensors and standard macOS interfaces. Macs with a Touch Bar can also show live widgets there.
+
+Fan control is the other half. You set a fixed speed or draw a custom curve, and a small privileged helper applies it. The helper expects a regular heartbeat from the app. If the connection drops, it tries to give the fans back to automatic control, and turning control off hands them back to macOS. Reinstall the bundled helper whenever you update the app.
+
+There are two free editions. The GitHub download, a ZIP or DMG of about 3 MB, has full sensor access, fan control and Touch Bar widgets. The Mac App Store edition is sandboxed and read-only, with public APIs only, no fan control and no Touch Bar. The developer says monitoring data stays on the Mac, with no account, ads or analytics. Optional weather asks for location access and comes from Apple WeatherKit.
+
+Core-Monitor needs macOS 13 or later on Apple silicon. The 17.0.5 ZIP holds an arm64-only app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+iStat Menus covers many of the same readings, along with clocks, a calendar and Bluetooth device battery levels, and it is sold after a 14-day trial. Macs Fan Control centres on fan speeds and presets, with a paid Pro version.

-CotEditor opens plain-text files in a lightweight native Mac editor, with syntax highlighting, text statistics and encoding tools. It works well for quick edits and inspecting unfamiliar files.
+CotEditor opens any plain-text file, from a quick note to a config file or a Python script, in an ordinary Mac document window. It starts fast enough for a one-line fix.
-The source code is Apache-2.0. Upstream image resources have separate CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 terms; this catalog shows the icon unmodified (resized only) to identify the app and does not redistribute its screenshots.
+- Syntax highlighting for more than 60 languages, such as HTML, PHP, Python, Ruby and Markdown, plus definitions you write yourself.
+- Find and replace with regular expressions, using the ICU engine.
+- An outline menu that jumps to sections the syntax marks out.
+- A split editor that shows different parts of one document side by side.
+- A character inspector that shows the Unicode data of a selected character.
+- Scripts in Python, Ruby, Perl, PHP, shell, AppleScript or JavaScript that act as your own macros.
+
+Encodings get particular care. CotEditor detects a file's encoding and can list the characters that would be lost when you convert to another one. For Chinese, Japanese and Korean text it offers vertical layout. Documents are backed up automatically while you type, and every setting, syntax definitions and themes included, sits in a normal settings window.
+
+Notepad++ fills a similar role for quick text and code edits, but it runs only on Windows. CotEditor is written for macOS alone and keeps its options few on purpose.
+
+CotEditor supports the two latest major versions of macOS, so 7.1.3 needs macOS 26. Older versions for earlier systems are in the archives on coteditor.com. The GitHub DMG holds a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The same app is also free on the Mac App Store.

-Cryptomator presents encrypted vaults as accessible files while they are unlocked. It is useful for adding client-side encryption to folders stored locally or synchronized by another service.
+Cryptomator encrypts files before your cloud sync client uploads them. You pick a folder inside Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive or any service that syncs a local directory, give it a password, and it becomes a vault. Unlocking the vault mounts it as a virtual drive. Files you save there are written to the folder encrypted, so the sync client only ever sees ciphertext.
-It does not provide cloud storage itself. The desktop app is open source, while mobile distributions and optional offerings may use different purchase arrangements.
+- File contents use AES with 256-bit keys and authenticated encryption, which detects altered files before decryption.
+- File names are encrypted and the folder structure is obscured.
+- Each vault has its own password, and you can keep as many as you like.
+- Every encrypted file carries what it needs for decryption apart from the key, so no shared metadata file can break the vault.
+
+Cryptomator needs no account and does not store your files; the cloud service you already use does that. For mounting the drive, the download page recommends installing FUSE-T on Apple silicon or macFUSE on Intel.
+
+The download page lists macOS 11 as the minimum and offers separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The Apple silicon DMG is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The desktop app is free under GPL-3.0, and the developers also offer a commercial license to vendors who need other terms.

-Cyberduck provides a graphical browser for remote files over protocols such as SFTP and for supported cloud storage services. Bookmarks keep frequently used destinations close at hand.
+Cyberduck opens a remote server or a cloud storage account in a browser window. You drag files into it to upload them and drag them out to download. The same window handles FTP, SFTP, WebDAV and SMB servers, as well as Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Azure, Google Drive, Dropbox and OneDrive.
-It is useful when you want to upload, download or inspect remote files without building a command-line workflow. Each storage provider still requires its own account and access permissions.
+- Synchronization compares a local folder with a remote one and previews which files will change before anything happens.
+- Interrupted uploads and downloads resume, and files can be copied straight from one server to another.
+- Pressing Space shows a Quick Look preview of a remote file without downloading it first.
+- Remote text and binary files open in an external editor of your choice.
+- Bookmarks can be filtered, dragged to the Finder, and used as drop targets for uploads.
+
+SFTP connections read your existing OpenSSH configuration and support public key and two-factor authentication. Passwords are kept in the macOS Keychain. Cryptomator vaults add client-side encryption that scrambles each file and its name before upload. Cyberduck needs no registration or account of its own.
+
+The macOS download is a ZIP that needs macOS 10.13 or later on Intel or Apple silicon. It shows a donation prompt after installs and updates until you enter a registration key, which contributors receive. The same app is also sold on the Mac App Store.
+
+WinSCP covers similar protocols but is built for Windows. Transmit, from Panic, is a paid Mac app organized around a dual-pane window. Cyberduck is GPL-licensed and also comes for Windows and as a command-line client.

-Arrange a photo shoot into a library, compare exposures, and develop images with masking and color tools. Edits remain separate from the original RAW files.
+darktable keeps your RAW files in a database and splits the work between two views. The lighttable shows your images as a zoomable grid. In the darkroom you develop and enhance an image, then export the result to a folder on disk or to remote storage. Edits are nondestructive, so the raw file itself is never changed.
-Its workflow suits photographers who want detailed control over a collection rather than a one-click filter. Check the official download requirements for your Mac.
+Freshly imported RAW files show the JPEG preview your camera embedded, because it loads faster. That preview carries the camera's own processing, so it can look different from the darkroom until you edit the image; after that the thumbnail matches. A preference in the lighttable settings turns the embedded previews off. Lens corrections come from Lensfun profiles, and scripting uses a Lua API with its own documentation.
+
+The Mac download is a disk image for Apple silicon only, and the install page supports macOS 13.5 or later. The project recommends 8 GB of RAM. A GPU is optional but strongly recommended, and modules such as denoise, retouch and liquify slow to a crawl on light hardware. Development happens on Linux, and the developers warn that other platforms may have bugs the Linux version does not.

-DatWeatherDoe puts the current conditions and temperature in the menu bar. It can use Location Services or a fixed latitude and longitude, and the refresh interval is configurable.
+DatWeatherDoe shows the current weather in the macOS menu bar, so you can check the temperature and conditions without opening an app or a browser. It finds your position through Location Services, or you can enter a latitude and longitude, which is useful when you want the weather for a fixed place rather than wherever the Mac is.
-Weather data comes from the WeatherAPI service, and location-based updates need Location Services permission.
+You set how often it polls for new data, and it supports dark mode. Clicking the menu bar item shows the day's high and low, sunrise and sunset and the wind, and settings switch units or add humidity and condition text beside the temperature. Version 5.2.0 added UV index and air quality readings.
+
+If you use your location, macOS has to give the app permission under Privacy settings for Location Services. Version 5.6.0 added retries for location lookups and fixed manual locations not being set, after 5.4.0 fixed latitude and longitude not saving.
+
+DatWeatherDoe requires macOS 13 or later. The 5.6.2 release is a disk image containing a universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. It is also available as the `datweatherdoe` Homebrew cask.
+
+Weather data comes from WeatherAPI. The developer moved the app there when OpenWeatherMap ended support for its 2.5 API in June 2024. If you build it from source, you need your own WeatherAPI key in the project's `Config.xcconfig` file.

-Davit is a graphical front end for Apple's open-source container tool, which runs each Linux container in a lightweight virtual machine. It covers container lifecycle, logs, live resource charts and a file browser, along with image pulls and builds, volumes, networks, registry sign-in and Compose file import, and adds a menu bar extra for quick actions.
+Davit gives Apple's open-source container tool, which runs each Linux container in its own lightweight virtual machine, a window and a menu bar extra. You pull an image, start a container with ports, environment variables and mounts, and then watch its logs, CPU and memory from the same window instead of typing `container` commands.
-It talks to the container services directly rather than shelling out to the CLI. The project lists an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 15 or later as the requirement; releases are on GitHub and in the developer's Homebrew tap.
+- Each container has tabs for an overview, streaming logs, live charts, raw JSON and a file browser that can upload and download files.
+- Edit & Recreate opens the run form filled in with a container's settings and replaces it, since containers on this platform cannot be changed in place.
+- Images can be built from a Dockerfile for arm64 or amd64, and a Compose file can be previewed and then started as a stack.
+- Registry sign-in covers Docker Hub, ghcr.io and other registries, and Docker credential helpers are used when configured.
+- Command-K opens a search across containers, images, volumes, networks and machines.
+
+If Apple's platform is missing, Davit offers to download Apple's signed installer and set it up in its own folder without an administrator password. The app talks to the platform's services directly over XPC rather than calling the CLI, and the same binary works as a command-line tool with `run`, `compose`, `build` and `exec` subcommands.
+
+Davit needs an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 15 or later; the project recommends macOS 26. The DMG for version 0.1.39 is arm64-only and is Developer ID-signed and notarized. It is also in the developer's Homebrew tap.

-Dayflow records lightweight screen captures through the day and has an AI model summarise them into activity cards on a timeline. From that record it drafts standup notes, weekly reviews of focus and distractions, and Markdown exports, and it can answer questions about past work in a chat panel.
+Dayflow keeps a work journal for you. It captures small chunks of screen activity through the day and has the AI provider you picked analyse them. The results become activity cards on a timeline, and you can see what you did without starting timers or writing notes.
-Recordings and the database stay on the Mac. Analysis can run through local models or the user's own Gemini, ChatGPT or Claude access; the developer also sells an optional managed-AI subscription. The free app ships as a disk image on GitHub releases.
+- A daily standup view shows a GitHub-style activity grid and drafts the highlights of yesterday, what is planned for today and what is blocking you.
+- A weekly review shows focus patterns, categories, app usage and the sessions it judged to be distractions.
+- A chat panel answers questions about your day, week or year from the timeline.
+- Any date range exports to Markdown, and storage limits make it delete old recordings automatically.
+
+Recordings, the timeline and the database live in Dayflow's folder under Application Support. For analysis you pick one of three routes. Local models run through Ollama or LM Studio, Gemini uses your own API key, and ChatGPT or Claude work through their command-line tools. With a cloud provider, the activity data needed for analysis goes to that provider. The free plan covers local or bring-your-own AI; a paid Pro plan runs the analysis on Dayflow's managed service instead, which the developer says deletes the screenshots after processing.
+
+Dayflow needs macOS 14 or later and the Screen & System Audio Recording permission. The 2.8.0 disk image on GitHub contains an Apple silicon (arm64) app only.
+
+ManicTime also tracks time automatically, recording apps, websites and documents, and can put screenshots on its timeline. Dayflow instead has a model read what was on screen and describe the work in words.

-DB Browser for SQLite opens local SQLite database files in a graphical interface. It provides table editing, schema tools, and a SQL workspace without requiring a separate database server.
+DB Browser for SQLite opens a SQLite database file and shows each table in a spreadsheet-like grid. You can search the records, edit them, and add or delete rows without learning SQL first.
-It is useful for inspecting application data or building small database-backed projects. The project supplies macOS disk images.
+- Controls and wizards create, modify and delete tables and indexes.
+- An SQL tab runs your own queries so you can inspect the results.
+- Tables import from and export to CSV, and whole databases to and from SQL dump files.
+- A log lists every SQL statement the app has sent to the database.
+- Simple plots graph columns from a table or a query result.
+
+You can also create a new database and compact an existing one. SQLite needs no server, so the app works on the file directly.
+
+The grid looks like a spreadsheet, yet the project leaves out features that make no sense for a database, so it will not stand in for your spreadsheet app.
+
+Version 3.13.1, from October 2024, is the current release. The macOS download is one Universal disk image for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized; nightly builds sit on the GitHub releases page. Code is dual-licensed: pick MPL 2.0 or GPL 3 or later.

-DBeaver Community provides a graphical workspace for connecting to databases and exploring their structure. SQL editing, table browsing, and data transfer help with development and administration.
+DBeaver Community connects to a database and lets you browse its schemas and tables, edit rows in a grid, and run SQL in an editor that shows execution plans. More than 100 database drivers come included. Any other database with a JDBC or ODBC driver works too.
-This record covers the open-source Community edition. Commercial DBeaver products have additional features and separate licensing.
+Beyond querying, it covers administration and data tasks:
+
+- schema editing and generated ER diagrams
+- export, import and migration of data between databases
+- SSH tunnels and proxies for reaching remote servers
+- a viewer for spatial data
+- an AI chat that can help write SQL against your schema
+
+Separate macOS builds exist for Apple silicon and Intel, each delivered as a disk image. DBeaver is tested on macOS 11 or later. Every distribution bundles its own OpenJDK runtime, so you do not install Java separately.
+
+TablePlus also connects to databases and lets you edit data. DBeaver is written mostly in Java, and the Community edition is free and Apache-2.0 licensed. A commercial PRO version with extra features is sold separately.

-DbGate brings several database engines into one graphical workspace. It supports browsing data, editing queries, and moving between connections.
+DbGate keeps connections to several SQL and NoSQL databases open at once, and in each you browse tables, run queries and change data or structure. The free Community edition handles MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, CockroachDB, SQL Server, Oracle, SQLite, DuckDB, Firebird, ClickHouse, Cassandra, MongoDB and Redis. Redshift, DynamoDB, Firestore, Turso and a few others need Premium.
-This entry covers the open-source project and its desktop releases. Some commercial offerings and database integrations may have separate requirements.
+- Table views have Excel-like and multi-value filters, plus a form view for tables with many columns.
+- Data edits come with a preview of the SQL change script, and tables, indexes and keys are editable too.
+- The SQL editor formats and completes code, and query results can be filtered, sorted and exported.
+- ER diagrams show how a database's tables relate.
+- Import and export handle CSV, Excel, JSON, NDJSON, XML and DBF.
+
+MongoDB collections get a JSON view, and Redis gets a key tree and a script runner. The same code also runs as a web app from Docker or npm.
+
+Mac downloads come as Apple silicon, Intel and Universal disk images. The GitHub release lists Community and Premium builds side by side, so pick a file without "premium" in its name.
+
+The paid Premium edition adds the visual query designer, master/detail views, charts, and schema compare and deploy. TablePlus covers many of the same databases and is sold as a per-device license, while DbGate Community is free under GPL-3.0.

-Deadbolt reduces file encryption to choosing a file or folder and entering a password. Encrypted files can be decrypted with Deadbolt on macOS, Windows, or Linux, which makes it useful for sending a protected document to someone on another platform.
+Deadbolt encrypts a file or folder with nothing more than a password. You pick the item, type the password, and get an encrypted file ending in `.deadbolt`. Decrypting works the same way in reverse.
-A companion command-line tool is available for scripting. The protection depends on the strength of the password you choose.
+The encrypted file opens with Deadbolt on macOS, Windows or Linux, so you can send it to someone on another system. Set Deadbolt as the default app for `.deadbolt` files and a double-click opens one for decryption.
+
+Under the hood it uses AES-256-GCM for the data and argon2id to turn the password into a key. The authentication tag from GCM mode verifies that encrypted data has not been altered. Version 2.1.0 replaced PBKDF2-SHA512 with argon2id, and files made with the older format still decrypt. Encrypted files start with a version header so the format can change without breaking old files.
+
+A command-line tool, installed from npm as `deadbolt-cli`, encrypts and decrypts without the window and asks for the password if you leave it out.
+
+Deadbolt is built on Electron. Version 2.1.1 has separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The Apple silicon app is notarized and requires macOS 10.15 or later. Homebrew also installs it as a cask.

-Deckle covers the display with a faint paper texture or a smooth dimming layer, aiming to make long reading and writing sessions feel less like looking at glass. You can pick a paper, adjust intensity and grain, and save combinations as named setups for different kinds of work.
+Deckle lays a faint paper texture over every display, or a smooth dimming veil if you prefer no grain. Click the italic d in the menu bar, choose one of 26 built-in papers, and set the intensity between 5 and 45 percent. Every click passes straight through the overlay to the app underneath.
-The overlay passes every click through, and individual displays or apps can be excluded. The project is clear that it is a visual texture, not a calibrated blue-light filter. It requires macOS 13 or later; releases are on GitHub and the developer also maintains a Homebrew tap.
+- Desk setups save up to eight named mixes of paper, intensity, grain and matte finish, with Read, Write and Unwind as starting points.
+- Paper Mill builds custom papers while previewing them on your real desktop, and exports them as JSON files you can import again later.
+- Per-app rules hide the paper while chosen apps are in front, or show it only for those apps.
+- Option-Command-P toggles the paper from any app, and a snooze pauses it for up to two hours.
+- `deckle://` URLs switch it on, change paper or set intensity from Shortcuts, Raycast, cron or Terminal.
+
+Each display gets its own overlay, and you can exclude any of them. An option hides the texture from screenshots and recordings, though some screen-sharing apps may still capture it. Opt-in paper pets, a cat and a fish, can wander the screen too.
+
+Deckle needs macOS 13 or later. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and a Homebrew cask comes from the developer's own tap. Deckle looks for new versions on GitHub roughly once a day and installs them unattended only if you turn that on.
+
+The README says plainly that Deckle is a matte texture, not a calibrated blue-light filter, and that it cannot change how reflective the glass is.

-DevDocs for macOS wraps the DevDocs.io documentation browser in a dedicated Mac app, so language and framework references live in their own windows instead of a browser tab. It registers a `devdocs-macos://` URL scheme that can open a search in a given documentation set, which makes it easy to call from editors, launchers or AppleScript.
+DevDocs for macOS opens the DevDocs API documentation site in a Mac app with its own windows and tabs, so you search and read references outside the browser. It has a global keyboard shortcut, Option-Space by default, which you can change. Command-F searches within the open page, and the interface follows the system's light or dark mode.
-The content comes from the DevDocs website, so it is not an offline mirror on its own. Development has been quiet: the latest release, 0.7.0, dates from July 2021 and is published as a zip on GitHub.
+The app handles its own `devdocs-macos://` URLs, so scripts can drive it. A search URL opens a new window with a term and, if you give one, a single documentation set, for example Rails. Another URL just opens a new window. The app also accepts ordinary `http://` and `https://` links, but only those on devdocs.io; links to any other domain are ignored. From Terminal, `osascript` with `open location` is enough to send one.
+
+Version 0.7.0, from July 2021, is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that declares macOS 11 as its minimum. The developer only supports Big Sur and points Mojave and Catalina users to version 0.5.2. The `dteoh-devdocs` cask that the README mentions has been disabled in Homebrew because the app fails its Gatekeeper check. The viewer is unofficial and licensed under the GPL, version 3 or later.

-Device Hub Pro lists Android emulators and phones, iOS simulators and optionally iPhones in one window, with live mirroring, input control and quick toggles for appearance, text size, network, battery, location and language. It also captures screenshots, recordings, logs and crash reports, and installs apps by drag and drop.
+Device Hub Pro puts Android emulators, Android phones, iOS simulators and, if you turn it on, iPhones in one list on your Mac. You pick a device and see its screen mirrored at up to 60 frames a second. Clicks, typing, rotation and hardware buttons control it.
-Android tooling is installed by the app, while iOS features require Xcode. The project requires macOS 26 on Apple silicon, and notes that some iOS features use private Apple interfaces that can break after macOS or Xcode updates.
+- A Controls panel changes dark mode, text size, network, battery, location and language, and reads the values back from the device.
+- Screenshots, screen recordings and a replay buffer that saves the last 15, 30 or 60 seconds land in a folder you choose.
+- Live logs sit next to the device, filtered by app, level or text, and crash reports can be captured too.
+- You install apps by dropping them on the window, then launch them, clear their data or open deep links.
+
+You do not need Android Studio, because the first launch downloads Google's Android tools. You can then create Pixel emulators from a catalog and pair an Android phone over Wi-Fi with a QR code. iOS work needs Xcode, and an iPhone has to be paired in Xcode with Developer Mode on. The developer has tested simulator touch and keyboard input with Xcode 27, on macOS 26.6 or later. Older Xcode versions leave the simulator view-only.
+
+The developer warns that simulator touch and the iPhone live view rely on private Apple interfaces, so a macOS or Xcode update can break them for a while. Each one can be switched off. The README states there are no accounts, analytics or telemetry.
+
+Version 1.2.0 runs on macOS 15 or later on Apple silicon only. Its DMG is Developer ID-signed and notarized, and updates arrive inside the app.

-DevProjex prepares a codebase for sharing with language models. You tick files and folders in a tree, watch a live preview with a token estimate, and copy or export the selection as text, Markdown, JSON, XML, a folder, or a ZIP, with secrets masked along the way.
+DevProjex turns a folder or Git repository into text you can hand to a language model. You tick files and folders in a tree, watch a live preview with line, character and token counts, and copy the result or export it as ASCII, Markdown, JSON or XML. It can also write a separate copy of the selected files to a folder or ZIP archive.
-The same project also ships a terminal workspace, a CLI, and a read-only MCP server for agents. The macOS desktop app is distributed as Apple silicon and Intel app archives on GitHub releases.
+- Hide Secrets masks API keys, tokens and connection strings in place with a placeholder, so the surrounding code stays readable. It uses a pinned Gitleaks rule set, and you can exclude a false positive from the preview.
+- Hide private data, off by default, masks emails, IP and MAC addresses, phone numbers and user paths.
+- Code compression trims code in 14 languages with Tree-sitter grammars and leaves a file whole when it cannot process it safely.
+- Saved profiles keep filters and masking settings per project.
+
+The same engine powers a terminal workspace, a CLI for scripts and CI, and a read-only MCP server for clients such as Claude Code, Codex and Cursor. In MCP mode secret masking cannot be switched off, and in Live Context mode the files you tick in the desktop app become the agent's focus. A local journal records each agent session's calls, paths and token totals, without file contents. The developer says the app does not upload project contents or collect telemetry, and warns that secret detection is heuristic, so a pack should be reviewed before it goes outside your environment.
+
+The desktop app needs macOS 14 or newer and comes as separate Apple silicon and Intel app archives. The project says the bundle is unsigned and not notarized, so the first launch has to be allowed under Privacy & Security.

-DevToys gathers small development utilities into one application. It includes tools for transforming structured text, encoding data, generating values, and comparing content.
+DevToys handles the small conversions you would otherwise paste into a random website: decode a JWT, format a block of JSON, test a regular expression, compress an image. Each of those jobs has its own small tool, and all of them live in one app.
-The cross-platform application provides macOS downloads. It can replace a collection of separate tools for everyday formatting and conversion tasks.
+Version 2 ships 30 default tools, grouped like this:
+
+- Converters, such as JSON to YAML, dates and number bases.
+- Encoders and decoders for HTML, URLs, Base64, GZip, JWT and QR codes.
+- Formatters for JSON, SQL and XML, plus testers for JSONPath, regular expressions and XML.
+- Generators for hashes and checksums, Lorem Ipsum and passwords.
+- Graphics tools, among them a colour blindness simulator and a PNG and JPEG compressor.
+- Text utilities, including a Markdown preview and a text comparer.
+
+Smart Detection looks at what is on your clipboard and picks the tool that fits it. More tools come as extensions, and the documentation explains how to write your own.
+
+DevToys also has a separate command-line version, with its own download. On the Mac the app comes as separate Apple silicon and Intel bundles, or through Homebrew with `brew install --cask devtoys`. The Apple silicon build needs macOS 12 or later and is notarized. GitHub still marks the 2.0 releases as pre-releases.

-DiffusionBee brings image-generation workflows into a Mac application. It provides controls for working with supported diffusion models locally.
+DiffusionBee turns a text prompt into an image on your own Mac. You type what you want to see, click Generate, and the image is computed locally by a Stable Diffusion model rather than on a remote server.
-Model licenses are separate from the application license. Supported hardware, available memory, and the selected model determine practical performance.
+- Image to image starts from a picture you supply and reworks it according to the prompt, optionally inside a mask.
+- Inpainting and outpainting change a selected region or extend the picture past its edges.
+- Upscaling makes finished images larger and sharper.
+- ControlNet, LoRA, negative prompts and further prompt options give finer control over the result.
+- A history view keeps earlier generations.
+
+Models are downloaded from inside the app. Supported families are SD 1.x, SD 2.x and SD XL, plus inpainting models. The developer says nothing leaves the Mac apart from those weight downloads and images you choose to upload.
+
+Model weights carry their own license, separate from the app's AGPL-3.0. The Stable Diffusion terms, the CreativeML OpenRAIL-M license, also govern the images you make, and downloading the app means agreeing to comply with them.
+
+There are separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs. In version 2.5.3, the most recent GitHub release from August 2024, the Apple silicon build is notarized and needs macOS 12.4 or later, and the Intel build needs macOS 13.1 or later.

-digiKam helps manage a growing collection of photographs across folders and albums. Tags, ratings, metadata tools, and search provide several ways to find an image later.
+digiKam manages a photo collection on your own disks. It scans the folders you point it at, local, removable or on a network, into a database, and then lets you sort, tag, search and edit what it finds. Albums are the folders themselves, while tags work as virtual albums that can cross them.
-Editing and batch operations sit alongside the library, making it useful for maintaining an archive as well as preparing photographs for export.
+- Ratings, color labels and pick flags mark items, and filters narrow the view by any of them, by file type or by name.
+- Searches run by keyword, date, a timeline, a map position, faces, or visual similarity to find duplicates.
+- Face detection and recognition, auto-tagging and quality grading use optional models that are downloaded on demand. The project says they run only on your computer.
+- An image editor handles cropping, curves, white balance, noise reduction and lens correction, keeping versions so the original survives.
+- A batch queue applies the same tools to many files at once, with settings saved as workflows.
+
+Photos come in from cameras supported by GPhoto2, USB storage or a scanner, with optional renaming and conversion of RAW files to DNG. RAW decoding uses LibRaw, or you can hand files to darktable or RawTherapee. A light table compares similar shots side by side. The database can be SQLite or a MariaDB server, and exports go to local folders, a remote computer, Piwigo, Flickr, Dropbox and other services.
+
+The macOS download page offers an Apple silicon package for macOS 11.3 or later and an Intel package for macOS 10.15 or later.
+
+Adobe presents Lightroom as photo editing and organizing across desktop, web and mobile. digiKam is a desktop application that works on folders you already keep.

-DNS Easy Switcher puts DNS choices in a menu bar list: presets such as Cloudflare, Quad9 and AdGuard, your own custom servers, or a return to the DNS supplied by your network. It can also run a speed test and flush the DNS cache.
+DNS Easy Switcher changes which DNS servers your Mac uses from a list in the menu bar. Pick a preset, one of your own servers, or hand control back to the DNS that your network supplies over DHCP.
-DNS changes can be confirmed with Touch ID, and settings persist between launches. It is a small single-developer utility installed from GitHub releases or the developer's Homebrew tap.
+- Presets cover Cloudflare (1.1.1.1), Quad9 (9.9.9.9), AdGuard DNS and GetFlix, the last with its full list of locations.
+- You can add, edit and remove custom servers, with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
+- A speed test measures the providers so you can see which one answers fastest.
+- A separate command flushes the DNS cache.
+
+Changing DNS settings on macOS needs administrator rights, so the app asks for authentication on every switch. On a Mac with Touch ID you can confirm with a fingerprint instead of typing the password. Your choices are kept between launches, and the developer says the app collects no data and stores its settings on the Mac.
+
+The app requires macOS 14 or later. The v1.0.7 release is a DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel; the app inside is Developer ID-signed and notarized, while the disk image itself is not signed. The README recommends installing through the developer's Homebrew tap, which also handles updates.

-On a Mac with several monitors, the Dock follows the pointer to whichever screen you push against at the bottom edge. DockAnchor stops that: pick the display the Dock belongs on and the app blocks it from moving anywhere else.
+On a Mac with more than one monitor, the Dock jumps to whichever screen your pointer pushes against at the bottom edge. DockAnchor keeps it on the display you choose. It watches mouse movement through a low-level event tap and stops those events from reaching the Dock's trigger zone on the other screens, so the Dock never moves, rather than being killed and restarted the way some scripts do it.
-Profiles can switch the anchor display automatically depending on which monitors are connected, and a live diagram shows the current arrangement. It can run in the background from the menu bar and start at login. Signed builds are on GitHub releases, and the author also maintains a Homebrew tap.
+- A live diagram of your monitors updates as screens are connected, unplugged or rearranged, and you click one to anchor the Dock there.
+- Profiles save display setups and can switch automatically based on which monitors are connected.
+- If the anchor display is unplugged, the Dock falls back to the primary display and returns when the monitor comes back.
+- When protection starts, the app can move the Dock to the anchor display, with a setting for where the pointer lands.
+

-Docky rebuilds the Dock as a strip you arrange yourself: apps, folders with nested navigation, spacers, dividers and widgets such as calendar, battery, weather or now playing, which can be stacked into a single rotating tile. It can sit alongside the system Dock, mirror it, or replace it.
+Docky is a Dock you build yourself. It can run next to the macOS Dock, mirror it or take its place, and you fill a single strip with apps, folders, spacers, dividers and widgets, then drag them into the order you want.
-Beyond the strip it adds a fullscreen searchable launcher, a Command-Tab-style switcher with live window previews, custom app icons, themes and profiles, and scripted actions. It requires macOS 14 or later; downloads come from the project website and GitHub releases.
+- Built-in widgets include Calendar, Reminders, Batteries, System, Weather and Now Playing. Several can share one tile as a Smart Stack that cycles through them, and community `.dockywidget` bundles add more.
+- Folders group apps, nest inside one another, support Quick Look, take dragged items and can show running apps inline.
+- A Command-Tab-style switcher shows live window previews, and hovering over a tile previews its windows.
+- A fullscreen, searchable launcher works from the keyboard and can have its own global shortcut.
+
+You can also replace the icon of any pinned or running app, switch between themes and configuration profiles, and add scripted actions built on AppleScript and menu clicks. Window handling and previews depend on two permissions, Accessibility and Screen Recording. Because it relies on private macOS interfaces, the developer says it cannot be distributed through the Mac App Store.
+
+The project is in beta. It requires macOS 14 or later, and the 0.9.7 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that is Developer ID-signed and notarized. Sparkle delivers updates inside the app, and a Homebrew cask is available from the developer's tap. Docky has no paid tier.

-Dolphin emulates GameCube and Wii systems on desktop computers. Its interface provides a game list, controller configuration, and settings for graphics and emulation.
+Dolphin runs GameCube and Wii games on your Mac from disc images. Controller bindings are set in the main configuration window, where a second GameCube pad needs port 2 set to Standard Controller.
-Game software is supplied separately. Most original code is GPL-2.0-or-later, while the combined repository is GPLv3 compatible as explained in COPYING.
+It reads ISO and GCM dumps as well as WBFS, CISO, GCZ and RVZ files. It can also compress games to RVZ, the format the FAQ recommends, because WBFS and CISO drop parts of the disc to save space. Dolphin does not supply games. The FAQ asks you to dump discs you own with a Wii and treats downloaded copies as illegal, even of games you bought.
+
+With a modern mid-range graphics card, games can run at HD resolutions. From the command line Dolphin can launch a game, load a save state or run without its interface. The bundled `dolphin-tool` converts, verifies and extracts disc images. Audio emulation has a fast HLE mode and a slower LLE mode that is close to exact.
+
+Releases come every few months, and development builds land several times a day for anyone who wants newer changes before they are well tested. The Mac release is a single Universal disk image for Apple silicon and Intel, and it requires macOS 11 Big Sur. The 2609b image is Developer ID-signed and notarized. The README licenses Dolphin under GPL version 2 or later. COPYING adds that most original code is GPLv2+, some derived code has other terms, and the repository as a whole is compatible with GPLv3.

-Dorso observes posture-related input from a camera or supported AirPods and applies a configurable blur when it detects a slouch. The reminder clears as the detected posture changes.
+Dorso blurs your screen when you slouch and clears it when you sit up. Sit straight, click Recalibrate in its menu bar menu so it learns that position, and from then on the blur grows stronger the further your head drops.
-Tracking is processed on the Mac. Different modes require different permissions and hardware; treat it as a configurable reminder rather than a medical assessment.
+It tracks you in one of two ways. In camera mode, Apple's Vision framework follows your head, falling back to your face when your body is out of view, and works best with even light and your shoulders in frame. AirPods mode reads head tilt from the motion sensors in AirPods Pro, AirPods Max or third-generation and later AirPods. It needs no camera, pauses when you take the AirPods out, and requires macOS 14.
+
+The developer says all processing stays on the Mac, with no account and no cloud service. Dorso needs macOS 13 or later. Version 1.17.0 comes as a DMG or ZIP, and the DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+Settings cover five sensitivity levels and a dead zone that sets how far you can drift before anything happens. You can also blur the screen when you step away from the camera, pause automatically when the laptop display is the only screen, and show Dorso in the Dock. The blur reaches every connected display. If no blur appears, compatibility mode switches from a private CoreGraphics call to a public macOS API. A dashboard charts daily posture scores and slouch patterns over weeks and months.

-DOSBox Staging emulates the environment needed by many DOS games and applications. It adds ongoing improvements around compatibility, audio, display, and usability.
+DOSBox Staging emulates an old IBM PC, down to its graphics card and sound hardware, so DOS games and programs run on a Mac. It continues the original DOSBox, and existing DOSBox configuration files keep working in most cases.
-The application does not include commercial game data. The project provides a macOS disk image and documentation for configuring installed software.
+Its defaults aim to need little setup. The picture goes through a CRT shader that the emulator picks for the emulated video mode and your display's resolution, from 720p to 4K. Beyond that, the feature list covers:
+
+- Video hardware from Hercules and CGA through EGA, VGA and SVGA, plus low-level 3dfx Voodoo 1 and ReelMagic emulation.
+- Roland MT-32 and SC-55 emulation, a built-in FluidSynth MIDI synth, Gravis UltraSound and the PC speaker.
+- CD audio tracks stored as Opus, OGG/Vorbis, MP3 or FLAC files.
+- Mouse integration with Windows 3.1, the host clipboard and physical CD-ROM drives.
+- An HTTP API for controlling the emulator from other tools.
+
+The current release, 0.83.0, needs macOS 12 Monterey or later. It comes as a Universal disk image for Apple silicon and Intel, and both the image and the app are Developer ID-signed and notarized. Older disk images stay on the download page for macOS versions back to 10.15, without help from the core team.
+
+New users get a Getting Started guide that sets up real games, Prince of Persia and Beneath a Steel Sky among them, with the files provided. Games bought on GOG or Steam carry their own copy of DOSBox in the game folder, and installing DOSBox Staging leaves those copies alone.

-Double Commander lays out two directory panels side by side, an arrangement familiar to anyone who has used Total Commander. Files are copied, moved and compared between the panels, with tabs, a multi-rename tool, a built-in viewer and editor, full-text search, archives browsed like folders, FTP and SFTP connections, and support for Total Commander plug-ins.
+Double Commander is a file manager built around two directory panels, arranged either next to each other or stacked vertically. The model is Total Commander, the Windows file manager that inspired it, and the project adds some ideas of its own on top.
-The project releases separate Cocoa builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs on GitHub alongside its Windows and Linux packages.
+- Archives open like folders, so you can copy files in and out of ZIP, 7Z, TAR, GZ, BZ2, XZ, RAR, DEB, RPM and several other formats.
+- F3 opens a viewer that shows any file as text, binary or hex, and F4 opens an internal text editor with syntax highlighting.
+- The search can look inside file contents as well as at names.
+- A multi-rename tool renames batches of files at once.
+- Remote folders open over FTP, FTPS, FTPES, SFTP and SSH with SCP.
+- Plug-ins written for Total Commander work too, in its WCX, WDX, WFX and WLX formats.
+
+Panels hold tabs and custom columns, a configurable button bar starts external programs or internal commands, and most file operations run in the background and can be logged.
+
+Version 1.2.11 ships separate Cocoa disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, next to the Windows and Linux packages. The Apple silicon image contains an ad-hoc signed app without a Developer ID signature.

-Downright treats Markdown files as regular Mac documents. There is no library or vault to set up: open a file wherever it lives, read it as formatted text with tables, math, diagrams and footnotes, or switch to the source view to edit it, with the original text left untouched on disk.
+Downright opens Markdown files as ordinary Mac documents. You open a .md file from Finder wherever it already sits, with no library or vault to import it into, and work on it formatted in the Document view or as raw text in the Source view. The two views keep the same position and selection, and the rendering never rewrites or normalizes what is on disk.
-It also adds Quick Look previews and Finder thumbnails for Markdown, exports to HTML and PDF, and keeps local snapshots of earlier versions. It works offline without an account and requires macOS 14 or later. Signed builds are published on the project website and GitHub releases.
+- It renders CommonMark and GitHub-flavored Markdown with tables, task lists, callouts, footnotes, math, and Mermaid and PlantUML diagrams.
+- If another app or a coding agent changes an open file, Downright refreshes it in place, keeps unsaved local edits, and can show word-level differences for review.
+- Local snapshots build a version timeline.
+- Quick Look previews and Finder thumbnails cover Markdown files, and documents export to HTML and PDF.
+- The `down` and `md` terminal commands open files, export them and read a document or its outline without launching the app.
+
+It also handles .markdown, .mdx, .qmd, .rmd and a few other extensions, with six themes and editable keyboard shortcuts.
+
+The developer says the app works offline and needs no account. Version 1.0.22 is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that requires macOS 14 or later, and it is Developer ID-signed and notarized. Updates arrive through Sparkle, including after a Homebrew install from the developer's own tap.
+
+Typora shows formatting live while you type in a single view and is sold after a free trial. Downright keeps the formatted reading view and the exact source as separate views.

-Dozer organizes menu bar icons around movable separators. Place less-used icons in a hidden group, then click a Dozer icon to show them again.
+Dozer hides menu bar icons you rarely use behind its own icons and brings them back when you click. It places two or three small icons in the menu bar, counted from right to left, and you arrange your other icons around them by holding Command and dragging.
-An optional second hidden group is available through an Option-click interaction. This is a focused tool for controlling visibility rather than replacing the menu bar.
+The first Dozer icon can sit anywhere and only serves as something to click. Everything to the left of the second icon is the hidden group: a left-click on any Dozer icon hides or shows it. The third icon is optional and marks a second group further left, which appears when you Option-click a Dozer icon. Right-clicking a Dozer icon opens its settings.
+

-draw.io Desktop brings the diagrams.net editor to a standalone application. Shape libraries, connectors, and page tools support everything from process maps to technical diagrams.
+draw.io Desktop opens and saves diagram files on your Mac, so you can drag shapes onto a canvas, join them with connectors and keep the result as a local file. The editor inside is the same one that runs at draw.io in a browser, wrapped in an Electron app.
-The desktop version can work with local files, making it useful when you want diagram editing without a browser or an online account.
+The developers say no diagram content or usage analytics is ever sent out. The Content Security Policy blocks remotely loaded JavaScript and limits the app's network connections to itself. The one exception is the update check: each day the app looks on GitHub for a new release and fetches it in the background. You can switch that off under draw.io > Check for Updates Automatically, or set `DRAWIO_DISABLE_UPDATE=true` for managed installs.
+
+One gap remains. A diagram can point to an image, background or font at a web address, and the app fetches those when the file opens. A file from a stranger can therefore show that server your IP address, though not the diagram itself.
+
+Each release ships three disk images for the Mac: Apple silicon, Intel and Universal. The app needs macOS 13 or later and is notarized by Apple. It is free under the GPL v3, and the draw.io site says it needs no sign-up.

-DrawPen puts a transparent drawing layer over whatever is on screen, so you can mark up slides, code or a live demo without switching apps. A global shortcut turns drawing on and off, and single keys pick the brush, a fading pen, arrows and shapes, text, a highlighter, a laser pointer or the eraser.
+DrawPen lays a transparent drawing layer over everything on screen, so you can mark up slides, code or a live demo without leaving the app you are showing. Command-Shift-A turns the layer on and off, and single keys choose the tool.
-Number keys cycle through colours and stroke widths, the toolbar can be hidden, and another shortcut opens a blank whiteboard for free-form sketches. Everything runs locally.

-DropPoint holds dragged content while you navigate to its destination. It is useful when the source and destination are in different full-screen windows or virtual desktops.
+DropPoint gives you a small window to park files during a drag. Dragging between two apps normally means arranging their windows side by side; with DropPoint you drop the files or a folder onto its window, go to the place they belong, and drag them out again. The README demonstrates this between maximized windows on one desktop and between windows on different virtual desktops.
-Drop content onto the shelf, switch to the target, and drag it onward. The upstream releases include separate macOS downloads alongside Windows and Linux builds.
+Closing the window does not quit the app. DropPoint keeps running as a tray icon, where clicking opens a new window and right-clicking offers Quit. While it runs there, Shift-Tab on a Mac opens a fresh DropPoint window under the mouse pointer, so you can start a drag from wherever you are.
+
+The project names the Mac app Dropover as its inspiration. DropPoint itself is built with Electron and released for Windows and Linux as well as macOS.
+
+The newest published release is 1.2.1 from September 2022. It offers separate disk images for Intel and Apple silicon plus a zip. In the Apple silicon disk image, the app is signed only with a development certificate, not a Developer ID, and Gatekeeper rejects it, so the README tells you to allow it through Open Anyway in the Security settings. Work on the code continued in August 2026 with an Electron upgrade, and the README now gives macOS 12 as the minimum for releases from 1.3 onward, but no 1.3 release had been published as of November 2026.

-DuckStation provides a desktop environment for PlayStation emulation. It includes a game library and settings for controllers, rendering, and compatibility.
+DuckStation emulates the original Sony PlayStation, so you can play PS1 discs and disc images on a Mac. Before any game starts, you need a BIOS image from a PS1 or PS2, which the project does not supply; the README tells you to dump it from your own console. Games come from you as well, either read straight from a CD drive or loaded as images in formats such as bin/cue, CHD, CCD and unencrypted PBP.
-The current repository uses CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0, so this version is source available rather than open source. Games and required system files are supplied separately.
+The desktop interface is built with Qt and shows your library as a list or grid, with multi-disc games merged into one entry. A separate full-screen "Big Picture" interface suits a TV. Beyond plain playback it offers:
+
+- Hardware renderers, Metal among the supported APIs, with upscaling, texture filtering and PGXP geometry correction.
+- Save states with rewind and runahead.
+- Per-game settings, controller presets, and analog, lightgun and multitap input.
+- A memory card editor, cheat and patch databases, and RetroAchievements.
+
+The project aims to be as accurate as possible while staying fast on low-end hardware, and it discourages hack options.
+
+The Mac build is a Universal app for Intel and Apple silicon and requires macOS 13.3. It carries only an ad hoc signature, not a Developer ID, because the developer will not pay a yearly certificate cost for a project that brings in no revenue. If macOS reports an unidentified developer, the README says to click Open Anyway in Privacy & Security. A built-in updater follows either a stable channel or a preview channel built from every commit.
+
+The current code is under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0. You may share unmodified releases for noncommercial use, but not adapted versions, which makes DuckStation source-available rather than open source.

-dupeGuru scans the folders you choose and groups files that look like duplicates, so you can review each set before deleting, moving or copying the extra copies. Matching can work on filenames or file contents, a music mode can also compare tags, and a picture mode looks for images that are visually similar rather than byte-identical.
+dupeGuru looks through the folders you pick for files that are probably copies of each other and shows them in groups. You then decide what happens to the extras: delete them, or move or copy them somewhere else.
-The Qt-based app is a long-running project for macOS, Windows and Linux. Its most recent macOS build is 4.3.1 from July 2022, distributed as a zip on GitHub; Homebrew has since disabled its cask because that build fails Gatekeeper checks.
+A standard scan compares either file names or file contents. The name scan uses fuzzy matching, so it can pair files whose names are close but not identical. Beyond that:
+
+- Music mode can read tags and shows music-specific details in the results.
+- Picture mode compares images fuzzily, catching pictures that look alike without being the same file.
+- Settings for the matching engine let you tune which kind of duplicates it looks for, and the help file documents each one.
+- Results can be filtered and sorted, which helps when a low threshold produces false matches.
+
+You can mark a folder as a reference, so duplicates inside it cannot be deleted and stay in the reference position of their group. The project presents this, with the grouping, as a guard against removing the wrong copy.
+
+The Mac version uses the same Python core and Qt interface as the Windows and Linux builds. The newest release is 4.3.1 from July 2022, a zip holding a Universal app for Intel and Apple silicon. That app is signed with a Developer ID but not notarized, so Gatekeeper rejects it, and Homebrew disabled its dupeguru cask on 1 September 2026 for failing that check. Commits still land in the repository in 2026, and the README asks for help with macOS testing and packaging.

-Dusty scans for caches, app leftovers and developer clutter such as Xcode build data and package caches, then shows each path and its size before you choose what to clean. Removals go through the Trash with a short undo window and a log, and the project limits deletion to a published allowlist of locations.
+Dusty cleans caches and leftover files from the menu bar and lists every path with its size before anything is deleted. Results fall into three levels. Safe covers user and browser caches, logs and the Trash. Developer covers Xcode DerivedData, simulators and package manager caches such as npm, pip and Cargo. In Deep, nothing is ticked until you pick it: old installers in Downloads, local Time Machine snapshots, and the `node_modules` or Cargo `target` folders of projects untouched for a month.
-It also breaks down memory use per app and can quit idle apps you select. A command-line interface ships alongside the menu bar app. As with any cleaner, review the selection before confirming.
+Deletes are limited to a fixed allowlist of locations that excludes Documents, Photos, Mail and iCloud Drive. Each clean moves items to the Trash first, leaves a few seconds to undo with Command-Z, and writes every path to a log. A dry-run switch shows what a clean would take without removing it.
+
+- A memory screen totals each app with its helper processes and pre-selects large apps left idle for an hour.
+- Freeing memory quits the apps you confirm the way Command-Q does, with a Reopen button. Dusty never runs `purge` or force quits.
+- A background scan every four hours keeps the reclaimable figure current, and auto clean can run on a schedule or when space runs low.
+- A `dusty` command-line tool and three Shortcuts actions use the same rules as the panel.
+
+Dusty requires macOS 13. The 2.1.0 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. A few system log paths need Full Disk Access; without it they are skipped. The developer says it needs no account and sends no telemetry.
+
+CleanMyMac, sold with a trial by MacPaw, also hunts duplicates and malware. Dusty sticks to caches, leftovers and memory, and every deletion rule is in its source.

-Dylib Hijack Scanner checks for dynamic-library loading conditions that could allow a hijack and for signs of an existing one. It is an inspection utility for investigating a specific class of macOS security issue.
+Dylib Hijack Scanner, or DHS, looks through the applications on your Mac for two things: programs that load dynamic libraries in a way an attacker could abuse, and programs where that abuse may already have happened. The attack it looks for was presented in a conference talk that the product page links to.
-Findings require interpretation and can include susceptible software that has not been compromised. The official product page describes the scanning approach and limitations.
+You open DHS.app and press Start Scan. Results come back in two groups. Vulnerable applications are common and do not mean the Mac is compromised. The product page explains that exploiting one requires an attacker who already has access to the machine, and that no per-app patches exist because the hijack abuses ordinary loader behavior. Entries under Hijacked Applications deserve a closer look, with the path of the flagged library shown beneath each row.
+
+The gear icon opens three options. Full scan covers the entire file system, weak hijacker detection also looks for libraries planted through weak imports, and save results writes the findings as JSON to a file named dhsFindings.txt next to the app.
+
+Version 1.6.0 added parsing of arm64 binaries and better detection of directories protected by System Integrity Protection. It requires macOS 11 or later. The release ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+DHS is deliberately tuned to report false positives rather than miss real hijacks, so a legitimate library can be flagged. The product page links a list of known false positives to check first, and suggests submitting an unexplained library to VirusTotal.

-Easydict is a lookup and translation panel that appears when you select text, type a query or capture part of the screen for OCR. It can query several services at once and compare their results, from Apple Dictionary and Apple Translate to web translators and AI models, including local ones through Ollama.
+Easydict looks up words and translates text in a small panel. Select text and press Option-D, or press Option-A and type a query, and the panel lists answers from several services side by side. Selecting text with the mouse also shows a small icon; hover over it to look the text up.
-Some services need their own API keys or accounts, and the project documents the access requirements for each. Releases are distributed on GitHub and through Homebrew.
+Screenshots work the same way. Option-S lets you drag across part of the screen and translates the text it recognizes, while Option-Shift-S only copies the recognized text to the clipboard. The language of the input is detected automatically, and 52 target languages are available.
+
+- Apple Dictionary and MDict files you import answer word lookups.
+- Apple Translate can work offline on macOS 15 and later.
+- Ollama runs AI translation on your own Mac or on a server you name.
+- Several text-to-speech services read results aloud.
+
+Services differ in what they need. Google, Bing and DeepL work without a key, while OpenAI, Gemini, Claude and Baidu Translate need your own API key or credentials. Claude Code and Codex CLI only answer when that command-line tool is installed and signed in. New installations start with Youdao, DeepL and the built-in AI service, and you can reorder or switch off any of them in settings.
+
+Easydict needs macOS 13 or later, and version 2.7.2 remains for older systems. The release DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-EcoPaste keeps clipboard history in a local database and offers filters by content type or source application. Notes, favorites, and groups help turn recent copies into a reusable collection.
+EcoPaste records what you copy, from plain text, HTML and RTF to images, files and folders, and keeps it in a local SQLite database you can search. Notes you attach to items are searchable too, and you can narrow the list by content type or by the app the copy came from.
-The application also provides backup and restore options. The upstream releases distinguish stable builds from nightly versions for macOS and Windows.
+- From an item you can paste it, copy it as plain text, reveal a file, open a link or drag it into another app.

+- Settings cover size limits, how long history is kept, list sorting and display density.
+
+Copies it identifies with high confidence as secrets, such as private keys, AWS keys, service tokens and JWTs, are skipped. History, resources and settings stay on your machine, and you can export them to an `.ecopastebak` backup, optionally encrypted, and import it later.
+
+Paste also keeps a searchable clipboard history and syncs it across Mac, iPhone and iPad through your private iCloud. EcoPaste stays on one computer. That can be a Mac or a Windows PC.
+
+Releases come as separate DMG builds for Apple silicon and Intel, alongside nightly builds. The Apple silicon build of version 1.1.0 is not signed with a Developer ID or notarized. The project's old site, ecopaste.cn, no longer serves EcoPaste, so the GitHub repository is the place to get it.

It is not signed with an Apple Developer ID, so macOS can report the app as damaged on first launch. Open Anyway in Privacy & Security settings, or the `xattr` command in the README, gets past that. After installation, Edmund checks for updates on its own.
+
+The developer credits Typora, along with Obsidian, for much of Edmund's vision. Typora's own site sells it after a 15-day trial for macOS, Windows and Linux, while Edmund is free under the Apache license and runs only on the Mac.

-electerm gathers local terminals and remote connections in one tabbed window. Saved bookmarks cover SSH with a side-by-side SFTP file browser, as well as FTP, Telnet, serial ports, and remote desktop protocols such as RDP and VNC.
+electerm keeps your local shells and remote connections in one tabbed window. You save a server as a bookmark, open it in a tab, and work in the terminal or browse remote files in the built-in SFTP file manager. A double-click on a small remote file opens it for editing.
-It is an Electron app with themes, quick commands, and optional settings sync. GitHub releases provide separate macOS builds for Apple silicon and Intel, plus an extra Intel build labelled for macOS 10.
+- Protocols cover SSH, SFTP, FTP, Telnet, serial ports, RDP, VNC and Spice.
+- SSH logins can use a public key, password, SSH agent, certificate or one-time code, with tunnels and connection hopping.
+- Quick input sends the same keystrokes to one terminal or all of them.
+- Bookmarks and settings can sync to a secret GitHub or Gitee gist, WebDAV, a custom server or electerm's own cloud.
+- An optional AI assistant suggests and explains commands through OpenAI or Anthropic-style APIs you configure, and its agent mode can run them.
+
+A global hotkey, Control-2 by default, shows and hides the window like a drop-down terminal. Links such as `ssh://user@host:22` open a connection directly, and themes, background images and transparent windows change the look.
+
+The app is built on Electron. GitHub releases carry separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, plus an Intel build marked mac10 for older systems. The Apple silicon app needs macOS 13 and is Developer ID-signed and notarized. It checks for updates at launch and offers an upgrade button.
+
+MobaXterm puts the same mix of SSH, SFTP, RDP and VNC in one window, but it runs only on Windows. It also bundles an X11 server for remote graphical programs.

-ElectroCRUD connects to MySQL or MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite and Microsoft SQL Server and turns tables into browsable views for creating, reading, updating and deleting rows without writing SQL. Version 3 adds documentation fields for tables and columns, tags, and policies for marking sensitive data.
+ElectroCRUD turns tables in an existing database into admin screens. You connect it to MySQL or MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite or Microsoft SQL Server, set up the panel in a few clicks, and then create, read, update and delete records without writing code.
-The latest stable release is v3.0.19 from June 2023, with an Intel macOS DMG on GitHub releases and in the `electrocrud` Homebrew cask; later development builds are marked as pre-releases.
+Version 3, rewritten in 2023 with React and TypeScript, adds a layer for describing the data itself. You can write documentation for each table and column, attach tags to columns, and set policies for handling sensitive data. The app then shows what the data means next to the rows themselves.
+
+The project began in 2016 as an Electron app with dashboards, filters and table relationships. Version 2 rebuilt it on Angular after a quiet period, and the current line is the third rewrite.
+
+The repository has had no commits since June 2023. The last stable release, v3.0.19, came out in June 2023, and a single v3.1.0 development pre-release followed in July 2023. The Mac download is an Intel-only DMG that asks for macOS 10.13 or later. Its app carries no usable code signature, and Gatekeeper rejects it.

-ElectronMail wraps the Proton Mail web interface in a desktop app and adds features the browser version lacks: several accounts side by side, an encrypted local store for offline reading, full-text search across message bodies and scriptable filtering.
+ElectronMail runs Proton Mail in its own desktop window and adds what the browser version lacks. It is an unofficial client, not made by Proton, and it ships prebuilt copies of Proton's open-source web clients, assembled from Proton's own repositories.
-It is a community project, not made by Proton, and it handles your Proton credentials, so review its documentation before signing in. macOS disk images for Intel and Apple silicon are attached to each GitHub release.
+- Several Proton accounts sit side by side, each with its own API entry point and proxy, so one account can reach Proton only over Tor.
+- The optional local store keeps message bodies in an encrypted `database.bin` file, which lets you read and search mail offline. Attachments are not stored.
+- Full-text search covers message bodies, and JavaScript filters can work through any number of messages in the local store.
+- With the local store on, you can export mail in batches to EML, move or delete many messages at once and mark everything read in one click.
+
+Recent releases have followed changes on Proton's side. Version 5.3.7 lowered the request rate after Proton tightened its API limit in May 2026, and 5.3.6 cleared a "Something went wrong" error that began on February 17, 2026. Each release has separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The notes say the Apple silicon app needs its quarantine flag removed with `xattr` before it opens.
+
+A master password unlocks the app. It can remember that password in the macOS keychain and sign each account in by itself, including two-factor codes. Account sessions can also persist across restarts, a feature the project labels experimental. Calendar alarms, per-account notifications, custom CSS per account and a dark mode round it out.

-Electrum provides a desktop interface for managing Bitcoin wallets. It includes tools for working with different wallet configurations and compatible hardware devices.
+Electrum keeps a Bitcoin wallet on your Mac. You create a wallet or restore one from its seed phrase, then send and receive payments. The project says private keys are encrypted and never leave the computer. Electrum stays quick by asking Electrum servers, which index the blockchain, for your history. It checks every transaction in that history with SPV.
-The official site publishes macOS downloads and verification information. Wallet recovery material needs to be kept independently of the application installation.
+- A watching-only wallet lets you follow balances online while the private keys stay offline for cold storage.
+- Multisig wallets split the right to spend between several wallets.
+- Hardware wallets and multisig services connect through plugins.
+- You can export private keys and import them into other Bitcoin clients.
+
+The macOS build needs macOS 11 or later. Version 4.8.4 is an Intel (x86_64) app, and the app inside its DMG is Developer ID-signed and notarized by Apple. Electrum also runs on Windows, Linux and Android, and is free under the MIT license. Each release is reproducible and signed by several builders. You can check the GPG signatures against ThomasV's published key, and the project warns against downloading Electrum from anywhere but electrum.org.
+
+If the Mac fails, the seed phrase is what recovers the funds. Electrum Technologies, which publishes the app, holds no account data and cannot freeze funds or undo a fraudulent transaction. The project gives no private support, so someone offering "Electrum support" through a private channel is probably a scammer after your coins. You can run your own Electrum server if you would rather not rely on public ones.

-Element is a desktop client for the Matrix communication network. It organizes conversations into rooms and supports messaging across Matrix homeservers.
+Element puts you in Matrix rooms and direct chats from a desktop window. You sign in to an account on a Matrix homeserver, either one run by a provider or one you host yourself, and talk with people whose accounts live on other servers.
-You can use an existing provider or a homeserver you operate. The current repository contains both the web interface and desktop application.
+- Rooms hold team or group discussions, and you set who can access them.
+- Messages are end-to-end encrypted by default, and search also works inside encrypted rooms on the desktop app.
+- Voice and video calls work one to one or in groups.
+- You verify your own devices and can revoke a lost or stolen one.
+
+The Mac app wraps Element Web in Electron, and both live in the same repository, so the desktop and browser versions share one interface. The project's own support policy covers the latest Element Desktop release on macOS versions that Apple still updates. For iPhone and Android, the project recommends its newer Element X apps instead.
+
+Slack describes itself as a work platform built around channels, connected apps and its Slackbot AI assistant. Element runs on the open Matrix standard, so you choose the server and can still reach people whose accounts live elsewhere. The code is available under your choice of the AGPL or GPL, version 3 or later.

-Equinox turns a set of your own images into a native macOS dynamic wallpaper. You pick a wallpaper type, either solar position, time of day, or light and dark appearance, drop in the images, and export a file that macOS can use as a desktop picture.
+Equinox builds the kind of wallpaper macOS uses for Dynamic Desktop and Light and Dark Desktop, from photos you supply. You choose one of three wallpaper types, drag your images into it, and export the wallpaper.
-It is a focused tool for one job rather than a wallpaper library. Builds are available from GitHub releases, and the project also links a Mac App Store listing.
+- Solar wallpapers pick the image from the sun's position, so the picture shown also follows the season.
+- Time wallpapers switch images on a daily schedule you set.
+- Appearance wallpapers need just two images, one shown in Light Mode and one in Dark Mode.
+- The Solar calculator works out the sun's position for you. Give it the place, date and time a photo was taken, or slide along the sun timeline to match the sun's height in the shot, then drag the result onto the image.
+
+To use the result, right-click the exported file and choose Services, then Set Desktop Picture. If the wallpaper then never changes, the README puts it down to a macOS issue. Its fix is to select any built-in Dynamic Desktop and set it to Dynamic first. Changing the clock in Date & Time settings is its suggested way to test the result.
+
+Equinox 7.0 requires macOS 12 Monterey or later. Equinox 6.0 remains available for Mojave and Catalina. The v7.0 GitHub release is a DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The app is free and MIT-licensed, and the project also links a Mac App Store listing. The interface is available in ten languages, including French, German, Japanese, Korean and Turkish.

-Escrcpy wraps scrcpy in a desktop interface for viewing and controlling Android phones and tablets. It manages several devices at once, supports wireless ADB connections, screenshots, app and file management, keyboard mappings and automation scripts.
+Escrcpy puts scrcpy behind a desktop window, so you can watch and drive an Android phone or tablet from the Mac. The device's screen sits in an embedded mirror that follows its resolution and rotation, with a sidebar of controls beside it.
-The device needs USB debugging enabled. Some advanced features come from a separate paid extension that is not part of this repository. Builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, along with Windows and Linux, are on the releases page.
+- Several devices can share one window, with input broadcast to all of them and screenshots or APK installs run as a batch.
+- The sidebar holds rotation, screenshots, an app list, a file browser, a terminal and automation; it can be dragged and its controls reordered.
+- Keyboard mappings turn keys into touches, joystick moves, swipes and scrolls on the mirror.
+- Automation scripts are built step by step, can recognise images on screen and run across several devices.
+- Wireless ADB finds devices on the local network, and Gnirehtet reverse tethering shares the Mac's connection with the phone.
+
+A Copilot panel adds an AI assistant that controls the device through the MCP protocol and can talk to more than one model. Since version 3.3.1 it needs your own AI provider, with its API key, endpoint and model settings. Global hotkeys can be set for common device actions.
+
+Escrcpy is an Electron app. Releases include DMG and ZIP builds for Apple silicon and Intel, and the project keeps its own Homebrew tap. The Apple silicon build of version 3.3.1 lists macOS 12 as its minimum.
+
+The README says some advanced features come from EscrcpyX, a private extension offered on a paid basis, while the open-source app sticks to the core integration. Version 3.3.1 unlocks every existing feature at no charge, and a new paid licensing system is planned for 4.0 and later. The developer also says support is limited and updates come irregularly.

-eul presents system information in a compact SwiftUI interface. It includes menu bar monitoring, widgets, and information such as Bluetooth accessory battery levels.
+eul puts system readings in the menu bar. You pick components from CPU, GPU, memory, network, disk, battery, fan and Bluetooth, then drag them to set their order in the status bar.
-The upstream README notes that the App Store edition is older and lacks some features. The GitHub releases provide the project's direct-download build.
+- CPU shows usage, temperature, core counts and uptime, and GPU shows temperature.
+- Memory is split into app, wired, compressed and cached files.
+- Network shows traffic in and out, for a chosen port or an auto-detected one.
+- Disk shows your disks and can eject them.
+- Battery shows charge, health, cycle count and time remaining.
+- Fan speed is shown against its minimum and maximum, and Bluetooth lists accessory battery levels.
+
+The app is written mostly in SwiftUI, follows Dark Mode and includes widgets for macOS Big Sur and later. Its interface is available in more than 20 languages.
+
+The App Store edition is older and lacks features, because all SMC calls were removed from it. The GitHub build, version 1.6.2 from August 2021, is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and needs macOS 10.15 or later.
+
+Bjango's iStat Menus reads the same sensors and adds fan speed control, but it is sold after a 14-day trial. The eul download on GitHub is free, and the code is MIT-licensed.

-Everything by mdfind puts a dedicated search window in front of the macOS Spotlight index. Searches can match names or contents and be narrowed by size, extension, case, and folder, with bookmarks for common queries such as large files.
+Everything by mdfind runs your searches through mdfind, the command-line side of Spotlight, and shows the hits in a sortable table with a preview pane. You type a name or a phrase from inside a file, then narrow the list by size range, extension, case, full or partial match and folder.
-Results can be previewed in the app, including text, images, and audio or video playback. It is a Python and PyQt application; the GitHub release ships a ready-made app bundle, and results depend on what Spotlight has indexed.
+- Bookmarks run ready-made searches for files over 50 MB, videos, audio, images, archives and applications.
+- The preview pane shows text with encoding detection, common image formats including HEIC and animated GIF, SVG, and audio or video with a player that can also open in its own window.
+- Tabs keep separate searches open side by side, each with its own results and settings.
+- Selected files can be opened, deleted, copied, moved or renamed in a batch, or dragged into another app.
+- Results export to JSON, Excel, HTML, Markdown or CSV.
+
+The app is written in Python with PyQt6 and can be run from source. The release download is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that lists macOS 10.14 as its minimum. That 1.4.3 build is unsigned, so Gatekeeper blocks it on first launch.
+
+A disk space view charts the largest folders under your home folder or any folder in the results, and double-clicking a bar drills into its subfolders. Large result sets load in batches as you scroll. Six themes are included, among them Tokyo Night and two Chinolor themes based on traditional Chinese colours.

-ExcalidrawZ wraps the Excalidraw hand-drawn canvas in an Apple-platform app. Drawings are kept as documents that can be grouped, sorted, synced through iCloud and restored from history checkpoints, and it opens .excalidraw files as well as Excalidraw PNG and SVG exports.
+ExcalidrawZ puts the Excalidraw whiteboard canvas inside an app for Mac, iPad and iPhone, so your sketches live as files you can find again. You draw with the same hand-drawn tools as on the web, and the app keeps each drawing in a library that you can group and sort.
-It also runs on iPad and iPhone. Mac builds are available from GitHub releases and the App Store; Excalidraw itself remains a separate project.
+- It opens and edits .excalidraw files, plus PNG and SVG exports that still contain editable Excalidraw data.
+- File history saves checkpoints, so you can go back to an earlier version of a drawing.
+- Drawings sync through iCloud, and you can also link folders on OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive or a WebDAV server.
+- You can import PDFs and export images, editable files or vector PDFs.
+- Locked files are encrypted on disk, checkpoints included. Touch ID or the Mac password unlocks them, and a recovery key serves as a fallback.
+
+Live collaboration uses Excalidraw's own collaboration feature. On top of drawing, the app can insert LaTeX formulas and function graphs, turn Mermaid diagrams into editable shapes and act as an MCP server for local AI clients. Its built-in AI chat can read and edit the canvas and shows proposed changes before applying them. It uses an AI account with credits, and you can hide any file from it.
+
+Version 2.5.1 comes as a DMG on GitHub. It holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 14 or later and is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The same app is on the App Store. The Excalidraw core it uses is published as open source in the developer's own fork.

-ExifCleaner removes EXIF and other metadata from supported image, media and PDF files that you drop onto its window, including whole folders. Options can preserve orientation or timestamps, save cleaned copies instead of overwriting, and remove macOS extended attributes; an expandable view compares metadata before and after.
+ExifCleaner strips metadata from photos, videos and PDFs that you drag onto its window. Drop a folder and it works through every file inside, in a batch, using ExifTool kept running in the background.
-It uses ExifTool for processing and works offline without automatic updates. Check the supported formats list before relying on it for anything sensitive.
+Settings can keep image orientation or file timestamps, save the cleaned file as a copy, and remove macOS extended attributes. Expanding a file in the list shows its metadata before and after cleaning. The interface comes in 25 languages, switches between them without a restart and follows the system's dark mode.
+
+The developer says the app makes no network connections, has no telemetry and never updates itself. ExifCleaner needs macOS 13 or later, with separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The builds are not code-signed, so on macOS 15 and later the first launch needs Open Anyway in Privacy & Security settings. Each release lists SHA-256 checksums to verify the download against.
+
+Only a fixed list of formats is accepted: common image types such as JPEG, PNG, HEIC and WebP, a range of camera RAW formats, MP4, MOV and a few other video and audio containers, and PDF. Some results are partial. ExifTool leaves the original PDF metadata recoverable, RAF files are refused, and removal from TIFF and AVIF may be incomplete. ExifTool's own documentation advises against stripping everything from RAW files, because some of that data is needed to render the image.

-ExtendFS adds read-only support for Linux ext2, ext3 and ext4 volumes using Apple's FSKit, so there is no kernel extension to install. After enabling its file system extension in System Settings, supported drives and disk images mount automatically.
+ExtendFS lets your Mac read drives and disk images formatted with the Linux ext2, ext3 and ext4 file systems. Typical candidates are an external disk or USB stick from a Linux PC, a Raspberry Pi's SD card, storage from a Steam Deck or a hard drive taken out of a NAS.
-It cannot write to these volumes, and it requires macOS 15.6 or later; the website documents further limitations. The GitHub build is free, and the same app is sold on the Mac App Store. The license is GPL version 3 or later with an added permission for app store distribution.
+Setup takes two steps. Open the app once, then switch on its file system extension in System Settings. After that, a supported volume mounts by itself when you plug in the drive or open the image, and it appears in the Finder. If you prefer the terminal, the standard mount command works with it too.
+
+The driver is built on FSKit, Apple's framework for file systems that run in user space. So there is no kernel extension, no FUSE layer such as macFUSE, and no trip to recovery mode to lower security settings. The developer says the driver is sandboxed and can reach only the disk it mounts.
+
+It cannot write to these volumes. Some ext4 features are not supported, among them compression, encryption and meta block groups, and LVM volumes are not supported either. Drives formatted as Btrfs or other Linux file systems won't mount.
+
+ExtendFS needs macOS 15.6 or later. The GitHub release is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. A paid Mac App Store version exists with the same features. The code is GPL version 3 or later, with an added permission for distribution through app stores.

-Fader switches the audio output from the menu bar, connects paired Bluetooth headphones, and gives every app that plays sound its own volume slider and mute. Apps can also be routed to specific outputs, and several devices can play at once.
+Fader puts your Mac's audio outputs and a volume slider for each app into one menu bar popover. Click headphones, speakers, a display or an AirPlay target to send sound there. Paired Bluetooth headphones stay in the list while disconnected, and clicking one connects it.
-The project says it works without a kernel extension or virtual audio driver and requires macOS 15 or later on Apple silicon. Builds are published on GitHub releases and update themselves.
+- Each app that is playing audio gets a slider and mute button, and the levels are kept between launches.
+- You can pin one or more devices to an app, each at its own level, while everything else stays on the main output.
+- Dragging a second device onto the output section makes both play at once. In that mode the per-device sliders replace the volume keys, and per-app sliders pause.
+- Once you reorder the device list, Fader switches to the highest-ranked device that is connected.
+- The microphone tab changes the default input, sets its gain and shows which apps are using it.
+
+Only per-app volume needs a permission. It relies on Core Audio process taps, which macOS puts behind the System Audio Recording permission, and Fader requests it when you first drag an app's slider. An app left at full volume and unmuted is not tapped at all. The developer says the audio never leaves the Mac and that the app has no telemetry. Nothing else gets installed: no kernel extension and no virtual audio driver.
+
+Fader needs macOS 15 or later and is made for Apple silicon. The release DMG holds a Developer ID-signed, notarized app that updates itself, and the app is also offered through the developer's Homebrew tap. It is MIT-licensed.

-far2l brings the keyboard-driven, two-panel layout of FAR Manager to Unix systems. Alongside file operations it includes a built-in editor and viewer, and plugins for archives, comparison, a calculator, Python scripting, and NetRocks for SFTP, SCP, FTP, SMB, NFS, WebDAV and S3 connections.
+far2l gives you a keyboard-driven, two-panel file manager on Unix systems. It is a fork of FAR Manager v2 for Windows, made for Linux and also working on macOS. You see two folders side by side, copy and move files between them, and open files in the built-in viewer and editor without leaving the panels.
-It can run in plain terminal mode or in its own wxWidgets window. The project still labels itself beta, and macOS disk images are attached to its GitHub releases and packaged as a Homebrew cask. The code is GPLv2 with an added exception permitting linking with OpenSSL.
+Much of the work happens in plugins, which the README lists among the working ones:
+
+- NetRocks opens SFTP, SCP, FTP, FTPS, SMB, NFS, WebDAV and AWS S3 locations in a panel.

+far2l runs either inside a terminal or in a window of its own. In a terminal it needs few dependencies, but ordinary terminals pass only the essential key combinations; iTerm2, kitty and far2l's own terminal pass them all. The graphical mode is built on wxWidgets and takes every shortcut.
+
+The project still calls itself beta and says you use it at your own risk. Release 2.9.1 carries two macOS disk images, an Intel build for macOS 10.15 and a Universal one for macOS 11.2, going by their file names. That Universal app is not notarized. A smaller terminal-only version is in Homebrew as far2l-tty, without Python plugins or SMB. The code is GPLv2 with an exception that permits linking with OpenSSL.

-Ferdium wraps many web services, including chat, email and collaboration tools, into a single window with a sidebar of tabs. Workspaces group services for different contexts, and a built-in to-do panel stays alongside them.
+Ferdium gathers the web apps you keep open all day, such as Slack, WhatsApp or webmail, into one window. Each service gets a tab in a sidebar, and you switch with a click.
-It is a community hard fork of Franz without usage restrictions, and can import existing Franz or Ferdi accounts. Builds are available for Apple silicon and Intel Macs.
+- Add the same service twice to stay signed in to two accounts at once.
+- Workspaces show only the services you need right now, so work and private life can stay apart.
+- A Todo panel stays open beside whichever service you are using.
+- A service that is not in the list can be added as a custom service.
+- Services you are not using hibernate to save memory.
+
+An account is optional. Without one, everything stays on your Mac. With one, services and workspaces sync between computers, and if you want sync without the project's server, you can host Ferdium Server yourself. Logins are never shared between services, so each one signs in separately.
+
+Ferdium began as a hard fork of Franz and, its README says, does not restrict usage the way Franz does. Scripts in the repository move an existing Ferdi profile across. You can restyle the interface with a custom.css file in the config folder under ~/Library/Application Support/Ferdium.
+
+Each release has separate DMG and ZIP downloads for Apple silicon and Intel. The project says in its FAQ that its macOS builds are submitted to Apple for notarization during the build. Ferdium's only official domain is ferdium.org, and the project warns that look-alike sites may spread malware.

-File Architect turns a plain-text outline into real folders and files. You write the tree you want, one name per line with indentation for nesting, and the app creates it in a chosen destination, which is handy for setting up project skeletons, client folders or recurring archive layouts. Tabs keep several structures open at once.
+You type the folders and files you want as an indented outline, and File Architect builds that tree on disk in one go. A line without an extension becomes a folder, a line with one becomes a file, and a Tab nests it under the line above.
-It is a Tauri desktop app for macOS and Windows, with Apple silicon and Intel DMGs on GitHub. The source is MIT-licensed, while the official website sells licences for the packaged app after a seven-day trial.
+The outline syntax handles more than empty folders:
+
+- A path in square brackets copies an existing file, or a whole folder with its contents, into the new structure.
+- A path in parentheses moves an existing file there instead of copying it.
+- Adding `$*5` to a name repeats that line five times, and a repeated folder can carry its indented children.
+- Where a blank file exists for the type, the app uses it, so a new PSD or DOCX opens in its app instead of failing as a zero-byte file.
+
+Finished outlines can be saved as templates for reuse. An optional AI mode turns a written description into an outline; the site says those requests go to Google Gemini. The developer says templates and structures stay on your machine, and the app contacts its server only to check the license.
+
+The site lists macOS 10.15 or later. Version 0.12.3 has separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, with the Intel one labelled a legacy download on the site, and its Apple silicon app is notarized.
+
+The code is MIT-licensed on GitHub, while the packaged app from the website works on a license model. It starts with a seven-day trial of every feature, then drops to a free Lite version for personal use that limits file and folder creation to 20 items. Commercial use needs a paid license.

-FineTune lists apps that are playing sound and gives each its own volume slider, mute and gain boost, plus a choice of output device. A ten-band equalizer and headphone correction shape the result, and pinned apps can be configured before they start playing.
+FineTune gives every app playing sound its own volume slider in the menu bar. Click its icon, and the apps currently making noise appear with a slider, a mute button and an output device picker.
-It uses the system audio recording permission to tap app audio, so macOS asks for Screen and System Audio Recording access on first launch. Individual apps can be excluded so they bypass it entirely.
+- Per-app boost raises quiet apps by 2x, 3x or 4x.
+- Each app can go to a different output, or to several devices at once.
+- A ten-band equalizer with 20 presets works per app, and AutoEQ profiles correct individual headphones.
+- Global hotkeys change the volume of whichever app is making sound, even when another app is in front.
+
+Pinned apps stay in the list while silent, so you can set their volume, EQ and output in advance. When a device reconnects, its apps return to it with their settings. FineTune also controls external displays over DDC and sets software volume on USB DACs and HDMI outputs whose hardware slider does nothing. URL schemes let scripts and Shortcuts change volume, mute and routing.
+
+FineTune taps app audio through macOS's Screen and System Audio Recording permission, which it requests at first launch. An app on the ignore list bypasses the tap entirely and goes back to normal macOS audio.
+
+Version 1.9.0 requires macOS 15.4 or later. The DMG holds a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it is also on Homebrew. The app is free under GPL-3.0, with optional tips through Ko-fi.

-Finicky acts as a default link handler and chooses which browser should open each URL. Rules can separate work and personal sites or rewrite a link before sending it onward.
+Finicky decides which browser opens each link you click. You set it as the default browser and write rules in `~/.finicky.js`, so Bluesky links can open in Firefox while Google Meet goes to Chrome.
-Configuration uses JavaScript or TypeScript. The upstream examples are a useful starting point for matching domains, browser profiles, and other conditions.
+Rules are plain JavaScript or TypeScript. A rule matches URLs by wildcard, regular expression or your own function and names the browser or app that should handle them. A separate list of rewrite rules changes the link before it opens, for example to force HTTPS, strip tracking parameters or send one domain to a different host. Anything that matches no rule goes to the default browser named in the file.
+
+Starting Finicky by hand opens a window for configuration and troubleshooting. The project wiki documents the full set of options and keeps a page of example rules. Configurations written for Finicky 3 need changes, and the wiki has a migration guide.
+
+Extensions for Chrome and Firefox add an "open with Finicky" item to links, and Option-clicking a link sends it to Finicky directly.
+
+Finicky 4 needs macOS 12 or later. The DMG holds a Universal app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and Homebrew can install it as a cask. It is free under the MIT license.

-Firefox is a general-purpose browser built around Mozilla's browser engine. It combines web navigation with extensions, developer tools, and controls for how websites store and access data.
+You browse in Firefox, Mozilla's web browser, and shape it with extensions, themes and tab tools while it blocks trackers on its own. Tracker blocking is on from the first launch, with nothing to set up.
-The browser source is open source, while Firefox names and branding retain their separate trademark protections. Mozilla provides official macOS downloads.
+- Tab groups, pinned tabs, Firefox View and a customizable sidebar keep a crowded session in order.
+- Reader mode clears clutter from articles, and picture-in-picture keeps a video in view while you work elsewhere.
+- PDFs open in the browser and can be edited there.
+- Mozilla lists more than 30,000 extensions and thousands of light and dark themes.
+- When you switch, Firefox brings over your bookmarks, passwords and history from the old browser.
+
+Firefox also runs on phones and tablets, so tabs, history and passwords can follow you between devices. Its AI features are optional, and you can turn them off. Mozilla says it does not sell your personal data.
+
+Firefox needs macOS 10.15 or later on an Intel or Apple silicon Mac. Older Macs are pointed to the Extended Support Release instead. The download page also offers Beta, Developer Edition and Nightly builds in more than 90 languages.
+
+Vivaldi is built on Chromium's open-source code, and its own help pages say it is not released under one unified open-source license. Firefox's source code is published under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, though the Firefox name and logo stay Mozilla trademarks.

-Flameshot captures a screen region and opens an editing overlay right on top of it, so you can add arrows, boxes, text, highlights or blur before copying or saving the image. It can also be driven from the command line, and its appearance and shortcuts are configurable.
+You drag across part of the screen, and Flameshot opens its editing tools right on top of the selection. Most tools have a one-key shortcut while you are in capture mode:
-Flameshot is a cross-platform Qt application, and much of its documentation covers Linux desktops. For the Mac, the project publishes separate Apple silicon and Intel disk images on GitHub releases. Homebrew has disabled its cask because the build fails Gatekeeper checks, so expect to approve the app manually.
+- P, D, A, R, C and M pick the pencil, line, arrow, rectangle, circle and marker.
+- T adds text, and B pixelates anything you want hidden.
+- A circle counter numbers steps, and G opens a color picker.
+- Undo and redo work as you go, and the result can be copied, saved to a file or opened in another app.
+
+Pressing Return uploads the selection to Imgur, and a capture can also be pinned to stay on screen. The project says Flameshot sends nothing over the network unless you ask it to.
+
+The `flameshot` command drives captures from scripts. `flameshot gui -d 2000` waits two seconds before the selection starts, which helps with hover tooltips, and `flameshot full -c` puts the whole screen on the clipboard. Settings can be changed with `flameshot config`.
+
+Version 15.0.0 ships separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The Apple silicon app is ad-hoc signed, not notarized, and requires macOS 14 or later. macOS blocks it until you choose Open Anyway in Privacy & Security, and then it needs the Screen & System Audio Recording permission. The README also lists a Homebrew tap and MacPorts.

-Floorp adds its own interface and productivity features to the Mozilla browser platform. It is designed for users who want more control over their browsing workspace.
+Floorp takes Firefox and adds tools for arranging tabs and pages. Firefox stays underneath; on top come workspaces, split view and a sidebar for sites you check often.
-The project publishes macOS disk images. As with other browser forks, check its extension compatibility and update schedule against your needs.
+- Workspaces group tabs by task and switch with one click, and Firefox containers can be tied to a workspace to keep cookies and sign-ins apart.
+- Split view shows up to four pages in one window, each panel at the width you set.
+- Web panels pin sites to the sidebar so they stay open beside the page you are reading.
+- Mouse gestures, web apps in their own windows, and interface customization cover the rest.
+
+No account is needed, and a built-in import tool brings data across from the browser you use now. An iOS version is in testing through TestFlight.
+
+Floorp's own comparison table, dated July 2026, credits Vivaldi with split views and web panels as well, but rates its source code as only partly open. The same table marks Chrome as unable to show three or more pages side by side in a window. Floorp's code is fully open under the MPL 2.0, and it is free.
+
+For the Mac, each release ships one Universal disk image for Apple silicon and Intel. It requires macOS 10.15 or later.

+FlowVision lays out every picture in a folder as an adaptive waterfall grid, and you move through your folders without leaving it. A double click opens an image and a second one closes it. It also plays video and has a recursive mode.
-Navigation leans on right-button mouse gestures and keyboard shortcuts to jump to the next or previous folder that contains media. The app works offline; the project lists macOS 11 or later.
+Most movement happens with the right mouse button held down:
+
+- Drag right or left to jump to the next or previous folder on the disk that contains images or videos.
+- Drag up to go to the parent folder, and down to return to the folder you came from.
+- Drag up and then right to reach the next sibling folder with images.
+- Drag down and then right to close the tab or window.
+
+W, A, S and D do the same jumps from the keyboard. In the image view, holding the left or right button while scrolling zooms, a long left press shows the image at 100%, and a long right press fits it to the window.
+
+The 1.7.6 release is a ZIP with a Universal app, notarized, for macOS 11 or later. Homebrew installs it as `flowvision`.
+
+The developer has tuned it for folders with very large numbers of images and uses scaling meant to reduce moiré. It supports HDR displays, light and dark mode, and file operations similar to Finder's. The README says the app makes no internet connection.

-Fluent Reader puts a subscription library and article views in a clean desktop interface. Group feeds and switch layouts to browse headlines or read full articles.
+Add RSS feeds to Fluent Reader, sort them into groups and read new articles in a list or an overlay view. Your library can stay on the computer or sync through a feed service.
-It can import and export subscription lists and connect to supported feed services. macOS builds are published on the project's release page.
+For sync it works with Inoreader, Feedbin, The Old Reader and BazQux Reader, and with self-hosted servers that speak the Fever or Google Reader API. Without an account, you import an OPML file and keep everything on the computer. Full application data backups let you move your library to another machine.
+
+- When a feed only carries snippets, it can fetch the full text with Mercury Parser, load the web page inside the app, or open it in your browser.
+- Search runs over titles and article text and accepts regular expressions.
+- Rules based on regular expressions can hide, star or mark articles as read as they arrive, and since version 1.3.0 they can apply to all feeds or a group.
+- It fetches in the background, sends notifications, and uses single-key shortcuts.
+
+The interface follows Microsoft's Fluent design, with a dark mode for both the app and the article view. It is an Electron app, also built for Windows and Linux, and a separate mobile version lives in its own repository. The developer says no personal information is collected and that cookies are cleared on exit.
+
+On the Mac you can download a DMG from GitHub releases or install it from the Mac App Store, where the listing asks for macOS 13 or later.
+
+Reeder drops unread counts in favor of a timeline position synced over iCloud, and mixes in videos, podcasts and social posts. Fluent Reader keeps a classic read/unread model and leaves sync to feed services.

-Fluor remembers whether each app should get the Mac's brightness and media keys or plain function keys, and flips the keyboard's mode as you switch apps. Its menu bar icon shows the current mode, a rules editor lists every per-app setting, and a running-apps panel covers programs, such as some games, that are hard to pick from a file dialog.
+Fluor sets the Mac's function keys per app. In one app the top row keeps Apple's standard functions; switch to another and it sends F1 to F12 instead. Fluor changes the mode as the active app changes, and its menu bar icon shows which mode is on.
-The latest release is 2.5.1 from July 2022, and the project's former website no longer resolves. It remains available from GitHub releases and as a Homebrew cask.
+Click the icon to set the default mode, which Fluor applies whenever it runs. The same menu shows the frontmost app and its rule, which you can change on the spot. Apps without a rule follow the default. Turning Fluor off puts the keyboard back the way it was before Fluor launched.
+
+- The Rules Editor lists every rule, where you can change or delete them, and adds new ones through a file picker.
+- The Running Applications panel sets rules for any open app, which helps with apps such as Steam games that the Rules Editor sometimes cannot select.
+- Rules made in either panel show up in the other, and setting an app back to the default removes its rule.
+
+Fluor is not sandboxed, which keeps it out of the App Store, so you install it from the GitHub DMG or the Homebrew cask. Version 2.5.1, from July 2022, is the latest release. It is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, needs macOS 11 or later, and the app inside the DMG is Developer ID-signed and notarized. Fluor is free under the MIT license and includes code from fntoggle.

-FluxMarkdown adds a Quick Look preview for Markdown files, so pressing Space in Finder shows rendered GitHub Flavored Markdown instead of raw text. Mermaid diagrams, KaTeX math, charts and a generated table of contents are rendered inside the preview.
+FluxMarkdown renders Markdown files in Finder's Quick Look. Select a README or a notes file, press Space, and the preview shows formatted GitHub Flavored Markdown with tables, task lists and GitHub alerts in place of the raw text.
-It installs as a regular app that carries the Quick Look extension, from the DMG releases or the project's Homebrew tap. The code is GPL-3.0, with a separate commercial license offered for closed-source use.
+- Mermaid diagrams, KaTeX math, and Vega, Vega-Lite and Graphviz charts render inside the preview.
+- A table of contents panel follows the section you are reading.
+- YAML frontmatter turns into a table at the top.
+- Code blocks get syntax highlighting, with a choice of themes such as GitHub and Monokai.
+- Command-Shift-P exports the document as PDF, and Command-Shift-E as HTML.
+
+Beyond `.md`, it recognizes extensions such as `.mdx`, `.qmd`, `.rmd` and `.markdown`, and it shows `.tsv` files as read-only tables, capped at 1,000 rows. The same app opens documents in its own window, where you can zoom and it remembers where you stopped scrolling.
+
+Usage statistics are switched on by default and can be turned off in Settings for both the app and the Quick Look preview. The developer says they never include document names, paths or contents.
+
+FluxMarkdown requires macOS 11 or later. The DMG from GitHub holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel; it is not notarized, so macOS may call it damaged until you clear its quarantine flag. A Homebrew cask in the developer's own tap is the other install route. The code is GPL-3.0, and the developer sells a separate commercial license for closed-source use.

-Flycast emulates Dreamcast and supported arcade systems. Its desktop interface provides controls for loading content and configuring input and rendering.
+Flycast plays Sega Dreamcast games, along with arcade titles built for Sega's Naomi and Naomi 2 boards and the Atomiswave system. It grew out of the reicast emulator and runs on macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, Nintendo Switch and Xbox.
-Game and system files are supplied separately. macOS packages are available from the upstream release page.
+Releases still bring support for individual games. Version 2.7, from August 2026, fixed online features in titles such as F355 Challenge and Cyber Troopers Virtual-On: Oratorio Tangram, and added multiscreen output for three games: Derby Owners Club, Airline Pilot and Sega Strike Fighter. The same release added frame rate detection and pacing, improved modem emulation, and translations into French, Hungarian, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese and Swedish. It also works better with DreamPicoPort and DreamPotato.
+
+On a Mac you choose between three channels. Tagged stable releases come as a ZIP on GitHub. The project's Homebrew tap installs stable, master or nightly builds, and the README recommends master. Nightly development builds are experimental. The 2.7 macOS ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that runs on macOS 10.15 or later.
+
+Settings and supported features are documented in a community wiki that the README links to. Flycast is licensed under GPL-2.0.

-Flycut stores copied text so it remains accessible after the current clipboard changes. It is particularly useful when moving among several snippets or commands during a task.
+Flycut records each piece of text you copy, so earlier clips stay within reach after the clipboard changes. Press Shift-Command-V. A translucent bezel appears in the middle of the screen. Hold Command and use the arrow keys to step through the history, then press Return to paste the clip shown.
-A configurable hotkey opens the history. The upstream project provides a direct download as well as an App Store version.
+The bezel has its own keys:
+
+- The number keys jump straight to a position in the history.
+- Delete removes the clip shown, and S saves it as a text file on the Desktop.
+- F switches to a separate favorites store, and Shift-F moves the current clip there.
+- Esc closes the bezel without pasting.
+
+The menu bar icon lists recent clips and can clear the history or merge it into one entry. Option-click the icon to pause recording while you copy something sensitive, such as a password. A sticky bezel setting removes the need to hold Command, and the hotkey can be changed in preferences.
+
+Flycut grew out of Jumpcut. It was written for developers who copy pieces of code. On macOS 10.14 and later it needs the Accessibility permission. The GitHub build, 1.9.6 from December 2020, is a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, that runs on macOS 10.10 or later. The same app is on the Mac App Store, and an iOS version exists.
+
+Paste, sold by subscription or as a lifetime purchase, syncs clips across Mac, iPhone and iPad and sorts them into pinboards. Flycut is MIT-licensed and shows one clip at a time in its bezel.

-FnKey is a small menu bar utility for push-to-talk dictation. The microphone is only active while you hold Fn; when you let go, the recording is transcribed and pasted into the frontmost app, optionally followed by Return. A keywords file lets you add custom vocabulary.
+Hold the Fn key, say what you want typed, and let go: FnKey pastes the transcription wherever your cursor is. The microphone is live only while the key is down, so the orange microphone indicator shows exactly when it listens. A tap shorter than 0.3 seconds, or Fn pressed with another key, records nothing.
-Transcription is not done on the Mac: you supply your own Deepgram key for streaming results or a Groq key for Whisper, written to a configuration folder from the terminal. Separate Apple silicon and Intel builds are available on the GitHub releases page.
+Transcription runs on outside services, and you bring the API keys. Deepgram's Nova-3 model streams text while you talk. Groq's Whisper takes the whole clip after release, either on its own or when Deepgram fails or gives no answer within ten seconds. Keys and settings are small text files in `~/.config/fnkey`, and you create the key files from Terminal.
+
+- A menu option presses Return after the paste, so a chat message goes out immediately.
+- With live pasting switched on, FnKey pastes each completed phrase before you let go of Fn.
+- A keywords file adds names and jargon, sent to Deepgram as key terms and to Groq as a prompt hint.
+- Your previous clipboard comes back half a second after the paste, and clipboard managers record one entry per dictation instead of every phrase.
+
+Setup asks for three permissions: Input Monitoring to see the Fn key, Microphone, and Accessibility to paste. The release builds carry no Apple developer certificate. macOS therefore treats each update as a new app, and you grant the permissions again. If no Fn key turns up within five seconds of launch, FnKey listens to Option instead.
+
+Separate ZIPs cover Apple silicon and Intel, and both builds of version 0.6.0 need macOS 11 or later.

+The Mac download page lists two disk images. The macOS 11 image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. The other targets Intel and PowerPC Macs back to Mac OS X 10.5. In both, the app is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Version 1.1.7 came out in March 2023 and is still the current release.
+
+Tags and file names take full Unicode, so Japanese, Cyrillic or Arabic titles stay in their own script. The interface comes in 43 languages, and the same program runs on Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and Haiku.
-The same application runs on Windows, Linux and FreeBSD. Mac builds are published as disk images on GitHub and freac.org, with separate packages for older and newer macOS versions, and a Homebrew cask is also available.

-FreeCAD provides a collection of workbenches for constructing and editing 3D designs. A model's dimensions and features can be revisited as requirements change.
+FreeCAD builds 3D models from a history of features. You sketch a 2D shape, constrain its lines and dimensions, and turn it into a solid. Change a parameter later and the model rebuilds from it. Finished parts become production drawings.
-It is suited to mechanical design and other CAD tasks where the relationships between parts matter. The project provides macOS desktop packages.
+Tools are grouped into workbenches for jobs such as product design, mechanical engineering and architecture. Extra workbenches and macros install from inside the app through the Addon Manager. A Python API and macro recording let you script repeated steps.
+
+Files move in and out through open formats, including STEP, IGES, STL, SVG, DXF, OBJ, IFC and DAE. Geometry comes from the OpenCASCADE kernel, and the interface is built with Qt.
+
+Version 1.1.4 is the last planned maintenance release of the 1.1 series. It fixes two vulnerabilities triggered by opening a crafted FCStd file, so update before you open models from unknown sources. Separate disk images are published for Apple silicon and Intel, and macOS 12 Monterey is the minimum. Weekly development builds let you try new work early, but the project says they are not fit for production use, so back up your files.
+
+The website promises no sign-up and no paywall. SketchUp's desktop app comes with its paid annual plans, and its Go plan runs only on iPad and the web. FreeCAD is free on the desktop under the LGPL 2.1 or later.

-FreeFlow records while you hold Fn, or toggles with Command-Fn, then transcribes the speech, tidies it up and pastes the result into the focused text field. It can read nearby context in the current app and a custom vocabulary so names and jargon come out right, and an edit mode rewrites selected text from a spoken instruction.
+Hold Fn and talk, or toggle recording with Command-Fn, and FreeFlow pastes a tidied transcript into the text field you were working in. It reads nearby context in the current app, so names and terms on screen come out spelled correctly.
-There is no FreeFlow server: you supply an API key, Groq by default or any OpenAI-compatible provider, and audio goes only to that service. The project positions it as a free alternative to subscription dictation apps; the DMG is on GitHub releases.
+- A custom vocabulary keeps project names and jargon intact during cleanup.
+- Edit Mode rewrites highlighted text from a spoken instruction such as "make this shorter".
+- Hold and toggle shortcuts can be changed, and each one can keep your exact wording or apply cleanup.
+- Voice macros paste predefined text when you say a set command.
+
+You choose the models behind it. Groq is the default, and a free Groq API key is enough to start. Settings also accept any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, including a local server such as Ollama or LM Studio, though the project warns that local models are often slower. The developer says there is no FreeFlow server and only calls to your configured provider leave the Mac.
+
+Wispr Flow's free plan caps how many words you dictate each week, and Flow Pro lifts the cap. FreeFlow has no subscription at all. It works with whatever API key you give it.
+
+The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 13 or later. Version 1.3.1 is signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-Freeplane organizes ideas as connected nodes in a mind map. Add notes, links, and attributes to give each branch more detail without losing the overall structure.
+Freeplane lays out your thinking as a mind map. You start from one central node and branch out from there, and each node can hold a note, attributes, links to other nodes and its own formatting.
-It can support brainstorming, study outlines, and project planning when a visual hierarchy is easier to navigate than a long document.
+When a map needs structure, Freeplane goes further:
+
+- Formulas that start with `=` compute values from other nodes, the way spreadsheet cells do, and run as Groovy expressions.
+- Styles, conditional styles and templates keep a whole map consistent.
+- LaTeX can appear in nodes, and a spell checker covers the text.
+- Groovy scripts and add-ons extend what the program does.
+
+Since version 1.13.1 an AI panel can summarize, rewrite and edit map content through OpenRouter, Gemini or an Ollama server you point it at. The documentation warns that map text may leave your machine, depending on the provider. A tool setting decides whether the AI may only read the map, edit it or also run scripts, and the Model Context Protocol server is off by default.
+
+Freeplane began as a fork of FreeMind and is written in Java. The macOS downloads bundle Java 21 and need macOS 14 or later. The DMG marked `apple` is for Apple silicon, and the one marked `intel` runs on Intel Macs and on Apple silicon too.

-Freeter groups the material for a piece of work into projects and workflows built from widgets such as web pages, notes, to-do lists, file shortcuts and commands. Switching workflows swaps the whole set at once, which helps when moving between clients or recurring tasks.
+Freeter puts the tools for each project on one screen of widgets, so changing project swaps the whole set at once. Press Command-Shift-F from anywhere, or click the tray icon, to bring it forward. You pick a project from a drop-down menu, and a project can hold several workflows arranged as tabs.
-A global shortcut and a menu bar icon bring it forward. The official downloads offer separate Apple silicon and Intel builds; current releases are labelled beta.
+Widgets do the work:
+
+- Webpage widgets embed web apps, and each can stay signed in to a different account per project, workflow or widget.
+- The file opener sends project files and folders to your editing programs in one click.
+- The commander runs terminal commands you would otherwise retype.
+- Note, to-do list, timer and web query widgets cover quick text, checklists, work intervals and templated searches.
+
+Things you want in every project, such as a timer, go on the Shelf, which stays available whatever project or workflow is open. A dark theme is one switch away. The developer says the app collects and sends no telemetry or usage data.
+
+Freeter 2 still carries a beta label; the current release is 2.8.0-beta from May 2026, and Freeter 1 is no longer supported. Separate DMGs cover Apple silicon and Intel. Gatekeeper rejects the Apple silicon download as it comes.

-FreeTube provides a desktop interface for browsing videos and following channels without using a Google account. Subscriptions and viewing data are managed locally by the application.
+FreeTube plays YouTube videos in a desktop window without a Google account. You subscribe to channels inside the app, and subscriptions, playlists and watch history are stored on your Mac. Data comes from FreeTube's own extractor or, if you prefer, from the Invidious API, and no official YouTube API is used.
-Playback depends on access to upstream video services, so service changes can affect it. The project publishes macOS builds through its releases.
+- Videos play without ads, and YouTube's cookies and JavaScript cannot follow you.
+- Profiles split your subscriptions into smaller, focused feeds.
+- SponsorBlock, DeArrow, chapters, a mini player and keyboard shortcuts are built in.
+- Subscriptions import from YouTube and export again.
+- Videos can open in an external player, and the LibRedirect browser extension sends YouTube links straight to FreeTube.
+
+YouTube still sees which videos you request. The project strongly recommends a VPN or Tor to hide your IP address, and FreeTube can route traffic through a proxy such as Tor. The developers say your data is never sent out.
+
+FreeTube is still labelled beta, and version 0.26.0 came out in November 2026. That release moved to Electron 44 and dropped macOS 12, so it needs macOS 13 or later. Apple silicon and Intel each get their own DMG, ZIP and 7z downloads.

-Fritzing gives electronics projects a visual representation that resembles the physical components. You can connect a breadboard view with a schematic and PCB layout.
+Fritzing lets you build a circuit the way it looks on your desk. You drag parts from the library onto a virtual breadboard and wire them up, then continue in the schematic and PCB views. A finished board can be exported as Gerber files, and the project's Fritzing Fab service will manufacture it.
-It is especially useful for communicating prototypes and teaching circuits. Official binary downloads are paid; the application source remains GPL-licensed.
+The parts library holds many common high-level components, and you can make and share your own. Fritzing is aimed at makers and hobbyists and keeps the barrier to entry low. Recent versions also simulate circuits. Release 1.0.8 fixed a crash in transient simulation and added a printer-friendly bill of materials.
+
+The source code is GPL, the documentation and part graphics are under Creative Commons BY-SA 3.0, and the code lives on GitHub. Ready-made installers are sold on fritzing.org, and buying one funds further development. If you would rather not pay, you can build the app from source by following the developer instructions.
+
+The macOS download is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. Version 1.0.8 supports macOS 12 Monterey through macOS 26 Tahoe. Older Macs have their own last versions: 1.0.1 for Catalina, 0.9.10 for High Sierra and 0.9.3 for Sierra and El Capitan. Circuits you create are yours to use as you like. If you publish breadboard images, the project asks for a short credit.

+frp lets a machine behind NAT or a firewall expose services through a public frp server, and Frpc-Desktop handles the client side of that setup in a window. You enter the server details, add proxies through forms, pick local ports and start or stop the connection, all without writing `frpc.toml` by hand.
-It also supports starting at login, multiple languages and searching through many proxies. Builds are published for macOS, Windows and Linux; the interface and documentation are primarily aimed at Chinese-speaking users.
+- Proxy types include TCP, UDP, HTTP, STCP and XTCP, and TCP and UDP rules can cover a batch of ports.
+- HTTP proxies support basic authentication and subdomains.
+- The app downloads frp client releases itself, optionally through mirror sites, and can delete versions you no longer need.
+- Whole configurations import and export, and an existing `frpc.toml` can be read in.
+- Search, with card and list layouts, keeps long proxy lists manageable.
+
+It can start when you log in, and its interface is available in more than one language, English included. The same author publishes Podux, a browser-based frpc manager, for people who would rather work in a web page. The documentation site is written in Chinese.
+
+Mac downloads include Apple silicon and Universal builds, each as a DMG or ZIP. Version 1.2.7 for Apple silicon needs macOS 12 or later. If macOS says the app is damaged, the README's fix is to run `sudo xattr -cr Frpc-Desktop.app` in Terminal.

+FSNotes edits notes that are ordinary Markdown or plain-text files in folders you pick, so any other text editor can open the same notes. You write in GitHub Flavored Markdown and search the whole collection from the keyboard. The developer says it stays quick past 10,000 notes.
-The project also offers an iOS companion and documents its sync options. Mac App Store purchases support development; the source remains MIT-licensed.
+- Tags and `[[links]]` connect notes to each other.
+- Code blocks, Mermaid diagrams and MathJax render inside the note.
+- Private notes can be encrypted with AES-256.
+- Notes can come from several folders and open in an external editor when you prefer one.
+- Optional Git backups make scheduled commits, so you can look back through a note's history.
+
+Sync goes through iCloud Drive or Dropbox. FSNotes for iPhone reads the same folders over iCloud Drive. Notes stay usable without an internet connection, and there is no account to create.
+
+Bear also writes Markdown on the Mac and iPhone, but it keeps notes in its own SQLite database. FSNotes leaves them as separate files you can move, back up or edit with anything.
+
+The GitHub release is a ZIP with a notarized Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, and it needs macOS 12.4 or later. The App Store version is paid, updates automatically, and its purchases support further development. The source is MIT-licensed.

-Fst is a text editor for opening and editing single files. Its README describes it as a fast, minimal editor with syntax highlighting and themes, and little else. It suits quick edits to a config file, a script or a note, where a full code editor would be more than you need.
+Fst opens a single text file, highlights its syntax, and lets you edit and save it. Beyond themes, its README promises little more than that.
-It needs macOS 14 or later and runs on Apple silicon and Intel. The app is notarized by Apple, so it opens without a Gatekeeper warning. The latest release is v0.2, published in October 2026.
+- Font size changes from the View menu or with Command-Plus, Command-Minus and Command-0.

+- Save As takes any file name without adding an extension, and documents save only when you ask.
+- Make Fst the Default Editor sets it as the default app for code files, and since version 0.2 it also covers .ts files, which macOS otherwise treats as video.
+
+Fst needs macOS 14 or later. Version 0.2, released in October 2026, is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. You can download the ZIP from GitHub or install it with Homebrew from the developer's tap.

-Gaphor is a modeling tool for UML and SysML. Elements placed on a diagram belong to an underlying UML 2 data model, so the same class or block can appear in several views and stay consistent, which makes it suitable for complete system models as well as quick sketches.
+Gaphor draws UML, SysML, RAAML and C4 diagrams on top of a real UML 2 model. When you click a Class in the toolbox and then on the canvas, the class lands on the diagram and in the Model Browser tree at once. Everything you model shows up in a diagram; there are no hidden property pages.
-The interface is built with GTK, and models can also be scripted from Python or Jupyter notebooks. Releases provide separate macOS disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, alongside Windows and Linux builds. The project is Apache-2.0; its REUSE metadata lists a few files under other notices.
+A new file starts from one of five templates: Generic, UML, SysML, RAAML or C4. The template picks a matching profile, and a button next to the Profile menu at the top of the window lets you pick another.
+
+- Diagrams export as SVG, PNG, PDF or EPS, one at a time or all together, and `gaphor export` does the same from the command line.
+- A built-in style sheet engine changes how diagrams look, and the app follows dark mode.
+- Python scripts and Jupyter notebooks can load a model and change it through Gaphor's library.
+- A Sphinx extension places diagrams from a model file straight into your documentation.
+- When Git leaves conflict markers in a model file, Gaphor can open both versions in a Merge Editor, where you review the incoming changes and apply them.
+
+Code generation is out of scope. Gaphor does not turn source code into diagrams or diagrams into code, and the README points to writing a plugin if you need that.
+
+The macOS download comes as separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, and Gaphor needs macOS 10.15 or later. The Apple silicon app in release 3.3.2 is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Builds for Windows and Linux exist too, and the project belongs to GNOME Circle.

-Geany combines a lightweight editor with common development conveniences such as symbol navigation and build commands. It is useful when a full-size IDE would be more than a project needs.
+Geany opens your source files in tabs, colors their syntax and lets you compile, build and run them from its Build menu. Errors from a build are listed, and Next error jumps to the line. It depends on little beyond GTK, so it stays small next to a full IDE.
-The project offers macOS disk images alongside other platform builds. Language support and plugins cover a broad range of programming tasks.
+While you type, it helps with the usual things:
+
+- completion of symbols, of common constructs such as if, for and while, and of XML and HTML tags
+- call tips and code folding
+- a symbol list for jumping around the current file
+- support for more than 50 languages, from C, Java and PHP to Python and Perl, plus config files, diffs and SQL
+
+Plugins add version control for Git and Subversion, a spell checker and a project organizer. You can also install color themes and define new file types.
+
+On the Mac, Geany 2.1 comes as two disk images, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel. The Apple silicon image is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Its windows are GTK windows, and the interface is translated into over 40 languages.
+
+UltraEdit and Sublime Text, two other programmer's editors, are sold under paid licenses. Geany is free software under the GPL, version 2 or later.

-Gephi displays connected data as a network that you can lay out, filter, and inspect. Styling and analysis tools help reveal groups, relationships, and structural patterns.
+Gephi is for looking at a network rather than a table of it: people and who they know, papers and what they cite, any set of things joined by links. You load the graph, run a layout, and then drag nodes, highlight neighbours and filter the view while it redraws in real time. Its own OpenGL engine handles networks of up to a million nodes and five million edges, according to the project.
-It is useful for research and communication involving graphs, from citation networks to organizational relationships.
+The work happens in a few areas:
+
+- Layout: force-directed algorithms place nodes, with settings for spreading clusters apart or keeping the network compact, adjustable while the layout runs.
+- Statistics: betweenness and closeness centrality, diameter, clustering coefficient, PageRank, modularity-based community detection and shortest paths.
+- Data Laboratory: a table of nodes and edges where you search and replace, batch-edit values and merge columns.
+- Preview: colours, sizes and labels driven by ranking or partition data, rendered as vectors and exported to SVG, PNG or PDF with saved presets.
+
+Gephi reads most graph file formats and can also import spreadsheets through a CSV wizard or pull data from a database. A built-in Plugins Center lists community plugins and keeps them updated.
+
+The version number still starts with 0. The team says Gephi has been in beta for over a decade and lists features it wants before 1.0, among them undo and redo with an activity log and visible parallel edges. Version 0.11.4 came out in November 2026, with separate downloads for Apple silicon and Intel Macs. The desktop app is written in Java on the Apache NetBeans Platform. Its main source code is dual-licensed under CDDL 1.0 and the GNU General Public License v3.

-Ghost Downloader collects many download types in one queue: HTTP files fetched in parallel chunks, magnet links and torrents, FTP, HLS and DASH streams, and video pages from sites such as YouTube and Bilibili with a choice of quality. A companion browser extension lists the media found on a page and hands it to the app, and feature packs extend it further.
+Ghost Downloader handles several kinds of download in one app. Paste a link or let the browser extension pass it over, and the app fetches it: ordinary HTTP files, magnet links and torrents, FTP, eD2k, HLS (M3U8) and MPEG-DASH streams.
-GitHub releases include macOS disk images for Apple silicon and Intel next to Windows, Linux and Android packages; the project lists macOS 13 as the minimum.
+- For YouTube and Bilibili it lets you pick the quality, subtitles, a clip, whole playlists or multi-part episodes.
+- GitHub and Hugging Face downloads can go through mirrors to speed them up.
+- The browser extension lists the media it finds on a page and puts a download button on videos. Ordinary browser downloads are taken over by the desktop app, along with the site's login state.
+- You can change a task's URL, headers or proxy while it runs, and other tools can drive it through an RPC interface compatible with aria2.
+- A `ghd` command-line tool, installed from Settings, probes, adds, pauses and waits on tasks from Terminal.
+
+HTTP downloads are chunked without a merge step at the end, the app detects your bandwidth on its own, and it can present a real browser's TLS fingerprint to sites that screen out bots. Feature Packs add more abilities as plugins, though the plugin API is not yet public.
+
+The same app runs on Windows, Linux and Android. On the Mac it needs macOS 13 or later, with separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel. The Apple silicon build of version 4.5.0 is Developer ID-signed and notarized.

-Ghostty combines a native Mac interface with a terminal renderer built for demanding command-line work. It supports tabs and splits so several shells can stay visible together.
+Ghostty runs your shell in a terminal window that you can split or tab to keep several sessions in view. Tabs, splits and windows use standard macOS interface elements rather than custom-drawn ones. The screen itself is drawn on the GPU with Metal.
-Its configuration file controls fonts, colors, shortcuts, and terminal behavior. This entry covers the desktop application, rather than the embeddable libghostty library.
+Settings live in a plain-text configuration file. There you set fonts, colors, key bindings and one of hundreds of bundled themes, which can follow the system light or dark appearance. Other Mac features include:
+
+- a quick terminal that slides down below the menu bar on a hotkey
+- an AppleScript dictionary for scripting windows, tabs and input
+- Quick Look lookups with a three-finger tap or force click
+- secure keyboard entry when a password prompt appears
+
+For programs running inside it, Ghostty follows xterm behaviour. It also supports newer protocols such as the Kitty graphics and keyboard protocols, so tools that use them can show images or read richer key input. Ligatures render correctly. Multi-codepoint emoji and grapheme clusters appear as a single character.
+
+A universal binary covers Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and macOS 13 Ventura or later is required. Ghostty also runs on Linux, where it uses GTK and OpenGL, but not on Windows. It is free under the MIT license.
+
+The project also publishes libghostty, a library for embedding the terminal in other apps. That library is a separate product from this desktop application.

-Gifski is a macOS interface for converting videos into animated GIFs. Adjust dimensions, frame rate, speed, cropping, looping, and quality to balance visual clarity against file size.
+Drop a video into Gifski, trim and crop it, and it turns the clip into an animated GIF. The app is a Mac front end for the gifski encoder, which uses pngquant to build palettes across frames and dithers over time. A single frame can therefore use thousands of colors, and gradients stay smooth.
-The current download is distributed through the Mac App Store. The upstream README also links older releases for earlier macOS versions.
+- You set exact dimensions, speed and frame rate, up to 50 frames per second.
+- The GIF can loop, bounce back and forth, or pause between loops. Bounce doubles the frames, and the file size with them.
+- A quality slider, backed by gifsicle, trades detail for a smaller file.
+- A preview shows the result before you convert.
+- You can send a video to it through the Share menu, a system service or a Shortcuts action.
+
+After a conversion, Command-C copies the GIF and Command-S saves it. Gifski reads the formats macOS itself can play, such as MP4 or MOV with H.264, HEVC or ProRes. QuickTime Animation and WebM are out; for transparent video, ProRes 4444 XQ is the suggested format. Rates above 50 frames per second are left out on purpose, because browsers slow such GIFs right down.
+
+The current version needs macOS 26 and is free on the Mac App Store. Older builds remain available for macOS 10.13 through 13. A separate version outside the App Store, refreshed about once a year, covers people who cannot use the store. The developer says the app collects no personal data.

-GIMP provides a desktop workspace for editing raster images. Layers, masks, selections, and filters let you combine material and make detailed changes to photographs or graphics.
+GIMP lets you retouch photos, combine images into composites and paint or draw from scratch, working in layers with selections and filters. Select part of an image and only that part changes.
-Use it for image cleanup, composites, and artwork preparation. Official macOS installers are available for supported Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
+Version 3.2 widens the set of layers you can keep editing later without reaching for Undo:
+
+- Text layers, the one kind GIMP already had, stay editable.
+- Link layers place an external file in the composition and update when that file changes in another editor.
+- Vector layers turn a path into a shape with its own stroke and fill, and you can rotate, scale and transform them non-destructively.
+- Filters can be applied non-destructively to layers, layer groups and channels. A filter on an empty group in pass-through mode affects everything below it, much like an adjustment layer.
+
+Painting needs pixels. To paint over one of these layers you first rasterize it, and Revert Rasterize brings the editable version back. The MyPaint Brush tool sits beside GIMP's own brush engine, and an Overwrite paint mode suits pixel art.
+
+Set against Photoshop, the difference GIMP itself can show is its license. The source is free software under the GPL, so you can change it and distribute your changes.
+
+The macOS downloads are separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel and need macOS 11 Big Sur or newer. The GIMP team publishes nothing on the App Store. Any GIMP listing there comes from a third party unconnected to the project.

-GitAhead is a graphical Git client for reading a repository's history, comparing diffs and working with commits. It is built on libgit2 and Qt, and it suits developers who prefer a visual history view to the command line.
+GitAhead opens a Git repository as a commit list with a diff view, so you can read how the code got where it is and then stage, commit and merge from the same window. SciTools, the company behind the Understand tool, designed it and later released it as free software.
-The README says GitAhead is no longer under active development. Bug-fix releases will come as needed, and the README suggests a rebranded fork for anything beyond trivial changes. The latest release, 2.7.1, is from December 2023. For a source build on macOS, the README recommends Xcode 10.1 or later.
+- Changes can be staged hunk by hunk, and a diff can be saved to a file or applied from one.
+- An indexed search over the history has an advanced search option.
+- The commit message editor checks spelling.
+- Branches and tags can be deleted from the commit list's context menu, and merges can be squashed.
+- External diff and merge tools such as Beyond Compare can be plugged in.
+
+The project is winding down. The README says GitAhead is no longer under active development: bug-fix releases come as needed, and anything beyond small changes belongs in a renamed fork. Version 2.7.1 from December 2023 is the latest.
+
+Version 2.7.0 dropped support for macOS versions before 11 Big Sur and removed all activity tracking. The Mac app in 2.7.1 is Universal for Apple silicon and Intel, signed and notarized. Version 2.7.0 stopped shipping Linux builds, so only Mac and Windows downloads remain.
+
+Fork and Tower charge after a trial period and are still being developed, while GitAhead is free under the MIT license and has no new features planned.

-GitButler provides a graphical workspace for organizing changes and preparing Git commits. Its tools are designed to help manage work that spans multiple branches or parallel tasks.
+GitButler opens any existing Git repository and lets you keep several lines of work going at once. Several branches can be applied to one working directory, each shown as a vertical lane with its own staging area. You drag each change into the lane it belongs to and commit every branch on its own, with no checkout in between.
-The current code uses the Functional Source License with an MIT future license. It is source available rather than open source during the restriction period.
+- Stacked branches build on one another, and amending or editing any commit restacks the branches automatically.
+- Commits can be uncommitted, reworded, amended, moved, split or squashed by drag and drop.
+- An operations timeline records what you did, so you can undo or revert any step.
+- Rebases always finish. Conflicted commits are marked, and you resolve them later in any order.
+- After you sign in to GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket, the app opens and updates pull requests and shows CI status.
+
+Built-in AI handlers can draft commit messages, branch names and pull request descriptions. The app can also install hooks and skills for coding agents, and the same features are available from the `but` command-line tool.
+
+Apple silicon and Intel Macs get separate DMGs. Both apps are Developer ID-signed and notarized, and both declare macOS 10.13 as their minimum.
+
+The license is the Functional Source License with an MIT future license. You can read, use and modify the code. Building a competitor with it is off limits. Each release converts to the MIT license two years after it ships. Until then the code is source available, which is short of an open-source license.

-GitHub Desktop makes common Git tasks available through a graphical interface. It helps review changes, create commits, and move between branches and repositories.
+GitHub Desktop lists the changes in a Git repository as you edit files, so you can choose what goes into a commit, write the message and push it without typing Git commands. You keep working in your usual editor and switch back to the Changes tab to review.
-GitHub integrations fit naturally into the app, while the source is MIT licensed. This record covers the desktop client rather than the GitHub hosting service.
+- Diffs appear unified or split side by side. Whitespace changes can be hidden, and a right-click expands the whole file.
+- Clicking changed lines leaves them out of the commit, which lets you split one file's edits across several commits.
+- Discarded changes are saved to a dated file in the Trash and can be recovered until you empty it.
+- Commits can name co-authors.
+- You can check out the branch behind a pull request to read its commit history and status checks. Comments on the pull request still have to be written on GitHub.
+
+Signing in with a GitHub or GitHub Enterprise account connects the app to remote repositories there. The team's product document says the app exists to extend GitHub, with only basic support for other hosts, and that it puts workflows for beginners and collaborative teams first. GitHub Desktop needs macOS 12 or later, with separate downloads for Apple silicon and Intel Macs.
+
+Tower and Fork both list interactive rebase and tools for resolving merge conflicts among their features, and Fork asks for a paid licence after a free evaluation. GitHub Desktop is free and MIT-licensed, an Electron app written in TypeScript.

-GithubNotify sits in the menu bar and changes its icon color when you have unread GitHub notifications, so you can see them without opening a browser. It is a small, single-purpose indicator for developers who follow GitHub activity through notifications.
+GithubNotify puts an icon in the menu bar that changes colour when you have unread GitHub notifications. Hover over it and a tooltip gives the unread count, so you can leave github.com closed until something arrives.
-The last release and the last commit are from October 2017, and the README gives no minimum macOS version. Nothing in the project has been updated since then, so compatibility with current macOS is unknown. Building from source needs Carthage and a GitHub OAuth application with notification access.

+The app checks your notifications every 60 seconds. Its menu has three commands: refresh now, open github.com/notifications in your browser, and quit. Sign-in goes through GitHub OAuth.
+
+Building it yourself takes Carthage and an OAuth application of your own, registered on GitHub with permission to read notifications. Its callback URL has to be github-notify://oauth. The client ID and secret go into a .secrets file before you build with Xcode.
+
+The last release, 0.1.3 from October 2017, has had no change since. It is an Intel app for macOS 10.10 or later, so Apple silicon Macs run it through Rosetta 2. The app has only an ad hoc signature, and Gatekeeper rejects it.

-GitHub Stars Manager turns a long list of starred repositories into a searchable library. With a GitHub token it pulls in every star, then a language model of your choice writes summaries, tags and categories in bulk, with categories you lock left untouched. Searches can match by meaning as well as by keyword.
+Give GitHub Stars Manager a GitHub token and it pulls in every repository you have starred, then has a language model write summaries, tags and categories for them.

-Repositories can also be subscribed to for release tracking, with asset filters by platform and file type and one-click downloads. The project also runs as a web app; the desktop client for macOS, Windows and Linux is published on GitHub Releases.
+- Vector search finds repositories by meaning and can list starred projects similar to one you pick. It relies on Cloudflare Vectorize and a small Cloudflare Worker that you deploy.
+- Release tracking gathers new versions from subscribed repositories in one timeline, filters assets by platform and file type, and downloads them in one click or through aria2.
+- A question panel answers focused questions about a single repository, tied to one commit and showing its sources.
+- A built-in MCP server lets agents such as Claude Code and Cursor search your enriched stars.
+- Forks and Gists get their own views, with upstream sync and workflow triggers for forks.
+
+Models come from OpenAI, Anthropic, an Ollama server or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint you configure, with your own keys where the provider needs one. WebDAV backup and an HTTP or SOCKS5 proxy are in settings.
+
+The same project also serves a web interface from source or from Docker images, with an optional backend that syncs data between devices. The macOS client ships as DMGs. The 0.9.0 Apple silicon build needs macOS 13 or later, and Gatekeeper rejects it as downloaded.

-Gitify sits in the menu bar and shows your Git notifications without keeping a browser tab open. Besides GitHub and GitHub Enterprise it can connect to GitLab, Bitbucket Cloud, Gitea, Forgejo, and Codeberg accounts, and it lets you mark items read or done, unsubscribe, and jump straight to the issue or pull request.
+Gitify sits in the menu bar and gathers your notifications from GitHub and other Git forges into one list. Forge support is built from adapters, so the set of forges can grow; Azure DevOps and Gerrit are listed as under consideration.
-Filters, themes, and other settings control what appears and how it looks. The app also runs on Windows and Linux; Mac users can download a universal build from the website or GitHub Releases, or install the `gitify` Homebrew cask.
+What you can do depends on the forge:
+
+- GitHub, on github.com or Enterprise Server, supports marking read or done, unsubscribing and extra details.
+- GitLab, cloud or self-managed, supports read, done and details, but not unsubscribing.
+- Gitea, including Forgejo and Codeberg, can only mark items read.
+- Bitbucket Cloud can only mark items read as well.
+
+You sign in to as many accounts as you need, across forges. Filters cut the list down to what matters, and you can turn on system notifications, a sound or a different theme. Version 8.0 added action buttons to those system notifications and stops polling while the Mac is locked or asleep.
+
+On older GitHub Enterprise Server versions, before 3.13, marking a notification done does not work. Gitify is built on Electron, and the Mac download is a universal DMG or ZIP. It also runs on Windows and Linux.

-Gittyup helps developers review repository history and work with local changes through a desktop interface. It continues the GitAhead project with community development.
+Gittyup lets you browse a repository's commit history, read each change in a diff view and stage your own work, all in one window. It continues GitAhead, an earlier client whose code it forked.
-The project offers macOS installation guidance and release builds. It is useful for workflows that benefit from visual diffs and a browsable commit graph.
+- Single lines stage with a checkbox or the S key, unstage with U and revert with R.
+- Blame view adds a timeline showing who changed each line.
+- Rebase and merge conflicts, binary files included, are resolved inside the app.
+- Commits can be amended, starred for quick lookup and written from a message template.
+- Tabs keep several repositories open, and Ctrl-M maximizes the history or diff pane.
+
+Version 2.0.0 moved to Qt 6 and added support for SHA-256 repositories. It shipped in November 2025 with Linux packages only. The newest macOS build is 1.4.0 from May 2024, an Intel-only DMG that Gatekeeper rejects. Homebrew disabled its gittyup cask in September 2026 because it fails Gatekeeper checks. Building from source is the other route, and the README covers both Intel and Apple silicon.
+
+Fork and Tower are paid Git clients for Mac and Windows, each with a free evaluation or trial. Gittyup is open source under the MIT license, but its Mac builds trail the other platforms.

-GitUp makes the repository graph the center of its Git interface. It allows users to explore history and perform changes through a visual representation of commits and branches.
+GitUp opens a repository as a live map of its commits and branches. Any change, made in GitUp or outside it, appears in the graph at once. Select a commit and press the Space bar to see its message and diff.
-Snapshots and undo tools help inspect and revisit repository operations. The app is built specifically for macOS.
+You change history directly in the map:
+
+- Rewrite, split, delete and reorder commits, or fixup and squash them.
+- Cherry-pick, merge and rebase.
+- Undo and redo almost any operation with Command-Z, rebases and merges included.
+- Step back to an earlier state through snapshots, which record every change to the repository.
+
+Search covers branches, tags and every commit by message, author or diff content. GitUp skips the git command-line tool and reads the repository database on disk directly. Its core is published separately as GitUpKit, a framework for building other Git interfaces.
+
+Version 1.5.0 is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and it needs macOS 12.4 or later. Builds tagged with a "b" go out on a separate Continuous channel. Homebrew carries it as gitup-app, maintained outside the project.
+
+Tower and Fork are paid Git clients that run on Windows as well as the Mac. GitUp is Mac-only and free under GPL-3.0.

-GitX is a lightweight graphical client for Git that shows branch history, diffs and staged changes and handles commits from a Mac interface. Over the years it was maintained in several forks, including the long-popular rowanj build; this repository consolidates that work into one community version.
+GitX gives a Git repository two main views on the Mac: a history view for browsing commits and a staging view for choosing changes and writing the commit message. The app has passed through several forks over the years. This community-run repository pulls that work back into one maintained version.
-Releases provide separate Apple silicon and Intel builds, and the Homebrew cask also installs a `gitx` command-line launcher.
+Recent releases keep up with changes in Git. GitX reads and writes repositories that use the newer reftable reference format as well as the traditional one, including bare repositories and linked worktrees, and opening a repository leaves its storage format alone. Version 1.8 can migrate a repository to reftable. It also shows real diffs for newly staged files, offers to repair worktree links after a repository moves and accepts folders dropped on its Dock icon.
+
+SHA-256 repositories are not supported. Command-line operations need Git 2.45 or newer, selected in Preferences.
+
+Releases come as separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel. The 1.8 Apple silicon app needs macOS 13 and is Developer ID-signed and notarized. The Homebrew cask picks the right build and puts a `gitx` command on the shell PATH.
+
+Tower and Fork run on both Mac and Windows and list interactive rebase and merge-conflict tools among their features. Fork is sold after a free evaluation. GitX is Mac-only and licensed under GPL-2.0.

-GnuCash organizes financial records into accounts and balanced transactions. Reconciliation, scheduled entries, and reports help maintain a consistent record over time.
+GnuCash keeps your books in double entry: every transaction debits one account and credits others by the same amount, so the totals always balance. You type transactions into a checkbook-style register that handles split transactions, autofill and cleared or reconciled marks.
-It can support personal bookkeeping and small-business records. Your data stays in the files and storage setup you choose.
+- Reconciliation checks an account against a bank statement, with running cleared and reconciled balances.
+- Scheduled transactions repeat on a timetable with reminders, and an assistant sets up loan and mortgage repayments.
+- Reports include a balance sheet, profit and loss and portfolio valuation, next to bar, pie and scatter charts.
+- Business tools track customers, vendors, jobs, invoices, bills and payroll.
+
+GnuCash 5.17 comes as two disk images. One is for Apple silicon Macs on macOS 11 or later, the other for Intel Macs on macOS 10.13 or later. The download page links both through SourceForge, and the GitHub releases carry Mac disk images too.
+
+Accounts can hold different currencies. Stock and fund holdings can fetch prices from online quote sources, which depends on Perl modules; the Mac disk image includes an Update Finance Quote tool that installs them. Books are saved as XML by default. Storage in SQLite, MySQL or PostgreSQL also exists, and the project marks it experimental. You can import Quicken QIF files and OFX files from banks.

-GoldenCheetah imports activity data into a desktop workspace for reviewing rides, runs, and other endurance sessions. Charts and comparisons help inspect trends across recorded workouts.
+GoldenCheetah takes the files from your bike computer, power meter or training service and turns them into charts and models of your training. It was built for cyclists, triathletes and their coaches. You can plan sessions in it, follow fitness over months and pick apart a single ride.
-It is aimed at athletes and coaches who want detailed access to their training data. Available metrics depend on the devices and data you import.
+- Imports cover FIT, TCX, GPX, PWX, SRM, Polar HRM and many other formats, and some devices, such as SRM PowerControl units and PowerTap, download directly.
+- Metrics include BikeStress, TRIMP and RPE, alongside models such as Critical Power, W'bal, Banister and the PMC.
+- Aerolab estimates aerodynamic drag from your ride data.
+- Train view runs indoor sessions with ANT+ and Bluetooth trainers.
+- Strava, Withings, Dropbox and other services connect for upload and download.
+
+When the built-in charts are not enough, you can write your own metrics and charts in its scripting language, in Python or in R. Those can be shared through GoldenCheetah's cloud. Through the OpenData initiative you can also give anonymized data to researchers.
+
+Version 3.8 adds planned activities and runs natively on Apple silicon. The Apple silicon download needs macOS 15 or later, and the Intel one macOS 12.7 or later. Both are large, about 330 MB and 520 MB.

-GoldenDict-ng brings several dictionary formats together in one search window. A lookup can show entries from multiple sources, helping compare definitions and translations.
+Type a word into GoldenDict-ng and it searches every dictionary you have added, then shows all the entries together on one page. It reads many formats, among them MDX, DSL, StarDict and Zim. Websites, audio files and external programs can act as dictionaries too. For local files, you point it at the folders where your dictionaries live.
-You provide compatible dictionary content separately. This makes it useful for building a language reference collection that can also work offline.
+- A popup window handles quick lookups.
+- Full-text search looks inside entries, using the Xapian engine.
+- Hunspell morphology adds word stemming and spelling correction.
+- Case, diacritics and punctuation are folded, so typing "Grussen" finds "grüßen" in German dictionaries.
+- Anki integration and transliteration for some languages are built in.
+
+Releases use calendar version numbers, and the project tentatively plans two a year around major Qt releases and the package freezes of Linux distributions. On the Mac it needs macOS 13 or later. Each release offers Apple silicon and Intel DMGs, built against two Qt versions.
+
+GoldenDict-ng is a fork of the original GoldenDict, and the "-ng" stands for next generation. Against its predecessor it handles dictionaries larger than 4 GB and more than ten million headwords. Entries render through a current web engine, and there is a dark theme.

-GPT4All provides a desktop application for downloading and chatting with supported local language models. Its document tools can bring selected local material into a conversation.
+GPT4All downloads open language models to your Mac and lets you chat with them there. Click Add Model, search the models on offer, download one, then load it in Chats and type a prompt. The models come from Hugging Face, many of them as GGUF files, and run on a llama.cpp backend.
-The app's MIT license is separate from each model's license. Available memory and model size affect performance on a Mac.
+LocalDocs brings your own files into a chat. You name a collection, link it to a folder, and GPT4All indexes the text with an embedding model that runs on the Mac. Open LocalDocs in a chat and the model answers with snippets from those files, and a Sources button under each reply shows which files it used. Files already indexed can be used before the whole collection is ready.
+
+Each model carries its own license, separate from the app's MIT license, and the documentation lists examples from Apache 2.0 to non-commercial terms. GPT4All is tuned for models of roughly 3 to 13 billion parameters. A 4-bit Llama 3 8B file is 4.66 GB and needs 8 GB of RAM. You can also add an API key for a remote provider; your prompts then go to that provider.
+
+The minimum is macOS Monterey 12.6 on an M1 with 16 GB of RAM, and Nomic recommends an M2 Pro on macOS 14.5 or newer. The macOS download is an installer DMG, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The last release, 3.10.0, came out in February 2025.
+
+LM Studio also downloads and runs local models. Its Bionic agent edits documents and handles coding, automation and computer-control tasks.

-Gramps keeps a family history database of people, families, events, places, sources and citations, and offers several ways to move through it: pedigree and fan charts, timelines, maps and a range of printable or web reports. It imports and exports GEDCOM, so research can move to and from other genealogy software, and its gramplet panels and add-ons extend what each view shows.
+Gramps holds your family history as a database you build up record by record: people and families, the events in their lives, places, notes and media. Sources, citations and the repositories that hold them are records too, so evidence sits in the same tree as the people it describes.
-Gramps is written in Python with GTK and runs on Linux, Windows and macOS. Each release on GitHub includes separate macOS disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, which are also available through the Homebrew cask.
+The same tree can be browsed in several ways. There are pedigree and fan chart views, a Geography view puts places on a map, and reports turn the data into documents.

+
+Data moves in and out in several formats:
+
+- GEDCOM, for import and export with other genealogy programs
+- GeneWeb, CSV spreadsheets and vCard, both ways
+- Pro-Gen files, import only
+- Web Family Tree and vCalendar, export only
+- Gramps XML, with or without the media files packed in
+
+Add-ons written by users and developers widen what Gramps does, and the project notes that they are not officially part of it unless stated. You can also keep revisions of a tree with RCS, and the 6.0.8 release notes ask you to back up before upgrading.

+Gray was written for macOS Mojave and declares 10.14 as its minimum. Version 0.17.0 from May 2021 is the last release: a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+Under the hood Gray writes one preference, `NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance`, into each app's user defaults. You can set the same key yourself with `defaults write` in Terminal, which the README shows for Xcode. Nothing else on the system changes, and deleting Gray leaves your choices in place.

-Grayscale Mode puts the system grayscale display filter one click or shortcut away, and can switch it off automatically for apps where color matters. Some people use it to make the screen less engaging and cut distraction.
+Grayscale Mode puts the macOS grayscale display filter behind a menu bar icon. One click drains the color from your screen, on any display, and the next brings it back. Option-Command-G does the same from the keyboard, and you can change that shortcut.
-The last release, 2.1.0, is from April 2020 and the project has been quiet since, so check that it works on your macOS version. The code is MIT licensed, but the README explicitly excludes images and other assets from that license.
+You can also pick apps that should keep their color. Grayscale Mode then leaves the filter off for them.
+
+Version 2.1.0, from April 2020, is the last release, and the repository has had no commit since September 2021. The download is a DMG with an Intel-only app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, which asks for macOS 10.14 or later.
+
+The code is MIT-licensed. Its README excludes images and other assets from that license, so the icon and screenshots may not be reused.

-Halloy is an IRC client for macOS, Windows and Linux. Channels, private messages and server buffers open in panes you can split and rearrange in one window, and it keeps up with modern IRC through a long list of IRCv3 capabilities such as chat history, message replies, reactions, typing notices and SASL login.
+Halloy connects you to IRC networks and puts channels, private messages and server buffers into panes in one window. You can split those panes, and Halloy reopens the same layout the next time you launch it.
-Servers, themes, highlights, notifications and keyboard shortcuts are set in a configuration file documented on the project site. It can connect through the soju and ZNC bouncers, and supports file transfers, logs and custom themes.
+Its IRCv3 support is long. Chat history, replies, reactions, typing notices, read markers, message redaction, multiline messages and SASL login are among the capabilities it handles, along with the soju bouncer's network and file-host extensions.
+
+Configuration lives in a `config.toml` file, edited by hand or in the built-in config editor. It covers servers, themes, fonts, notifications, highlights and keyboard shortcuts.
+
+- Passwords can stay out of the file, stored in the macOS Keychain instead.
+- Links show previews, which you can turn off or limit to URLs that match a pattern.
+- File transfers can save to a set folder or ask each time.
+- Logs, custom themes, proxies and a portable mode are documented on the project site.
+
+Guides walk through connecting with the soju and ZNC bouncers. Halloy is built in Rust on the iced toolkit, and it also runs on Windows and Linux. Version 2026.10 comes as a DMG with a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and Homebrew and MacPorts packages exist. The code is under the GPL version 3.

-Hammerspoon connects a Lua scripting environment to macOS features. Use it to compose your own window layouts, keyboard actions, and responses to changes in your desktop environment.
+Hammerspoon runs Lua scripts that control macOS. Out of the box it does nothing. You write a configuration in ~/.hammerspoon/init.lua, opened from its menu bar icon, that ties events to actions. A hotkey can move and resize a set of windows, and a function can run when the Mac joins a particular Wi-Fi network. An alert can appear when the battery runs low.
-It is a configurable automation app rather than a ready-made set of shortcuts: create an init.lua configuration or start with the project's examples.
+Its extensions reach applications, windows, the mouse pointer, files, audio devices, the battery, displays, low-level keyboard and mouse events, the clipboard, location services and Wi-Fi. Scripts can also run AppleScript. Spoons are ready-made Lua plugins you add to a configuration. The project site has a getting-started guide and a full API reference.
+
+Hammerspoon 1.1.1 requires macOS 13 or later; release notes list older versions for earlier systems. It ships as a universal zip for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. On first launch it asks for Accessibility access. It is free under the MIT license.
+
+Keyboard Maestro handles similar automation with macros built from its library of actions. In Hammerspoon, every behaviour is code you write or adapt from shared examples. AutoHotkey fills the same scripting role on Windows.

-HandBrake transcodes video into widely supported formats. Start with a preset or adjust video, audio and subtitle settings for the result you need.
+HandBrake takes a video you already have and encodes a new copy for a phone, a TV box, a game console or the web. Open a file or a disc, pick a preset for the target device, and add the job to the queue.
-Queue several jobs when you have a batch to process. The application is GPL-2.0, while its graphics use a separate Creative Commons license documented with the asset.
+When a preset is not enough, the settings go deep:
+
+- AV1, H.265, H.264, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8 and VP9 video, with optional hardware encoding
+- Opus, AAC, MP3, FLAC, Vorbis, AC3 and E-AC3 audio, or passthrough of the original tracks
+- subtitles, chapter markers and title or range selection
+- filters such as deinterlace, denoise, crop and scale, checked in a live preview
+
+Results are saved as MP4, MKV or WebM. HandBrake reads most common video files, from camera footage to screen recordings, and DVD or Blu-ray discs without copy protection. Batch scan fills the queue with many files at once, and HDR passes through.
+
+The Mac download is a Universal disk image that needs macOS 10.13 or later, and the 1.11.2 app inside is Developer ID-signed and notarized. A separate HandBrakeCLI image holds the command-line version. The download page states that HandBrake is free and needs no account, and names three official sources: handbrake.fr, the GitHub project and Flathub. Before you upgrade, empty the queue and back up custom presets, because they may not be compatible with the new version.
+
+Most of the code is under GPL-2.0, with some parts under BSD 3-Clause. HandBrake builds on FFmpeg, x264, x265 and SVT-AV1.

-Handy is a deliberately simple dictation tool. Press its keyboard shortcut, either held down or toggled, talk, and the transcription is pasted into the active text field. Speech is processed on the computer: voice activity detection trims silence, and recognition uses a Whisper or Parakeet model that the app downloads for you.
+Handy types what you say into whatever text field has focus. Hold its shortcut, speak, and let go; the transcription is pasted at the cursor. A quick tap on the same shortcut toggles recording on and off instead, and hold-only or toggle-only modes are available.
-It is a Tauri app for macOS, Windows and Linux. Official builds are on GitHub releases and the project website; a community-maintained Homebrew cask is also available.
+Speech recognition runs on the computer. Silero voice activity detection trims the silence, then the model you choose does the transcribing. Whisper comes in Small, Medium, Turbo and Large sizes and uses the GPU when one is available. Parakeet V3 is tuned for the CPU and detects the spoken language by itself. The developer says your audio never leaves the machine.
+
+On first launch Handy asks for microphone and Accessibility access. Two macOS quirks are worth knowing. A shortcut using the fn (Globe) key fires only from an Apple keyboard. A Bluetooth headset microphone can drop playback quality while recording, so set Handy to record from the Mac's own mic or another external one and keep the headset for listening.
+
+For scripting, the app binary takes flags such as `--toggle-transcription` and `--start-hidden`. A transcription hook, an executable placed in Handy's Application Support folder, can rewrite the text just before it is pasted.
+
+Release 0.10.0 has separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, plus Windows and Linux builds. The Apple silicon app is Developer ID-signed and notarized. The Homebrew cask is maintained by others, not by the Handy developers.
+
+Wispr Flow also types your speech into any app from a shortcut, but it sends your audio to Wispr's servers for transcription. Handy does the recognition on your own machine.

-HapticKey is a small utility for MacBook Pro models with a Touch Bar. When you tap Escape, a function key or another Touch Bar control, it vibrates the trackpad so the flat strip gives some physical confirmation, and it can play a sound or flash the screen instead.
+On a MacBook with a Touch Bar, tapping Escape or a function key gives no physical click. HapticKey supplies one. It vibrates the trackpad when you tap, reacting either to Escape and the F keys or to every tap on the Touch Bar. A sound or a screen flash, like a terminal's visual bell, can come with it.
-It needs Accessibility permission and uses private multitouch interfaces for the haptic effect. The last release, 0.7.0, dates from October 2021 and is not signed, so expect to approve it manually; it is only relevant on Macs that have a Touch Bar.
+It watches Touch Bar events through a CGEventTap and drives the trackpad with private functions in Apple's MultitouchSupport framework. Because it listens to system events, it may ask for Accessibility permission. The README names Escape in Vim as the case where the missing feedback hurts most.
+
+Version 0.7.0 from October 2021 is still the latest release, a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that asks for macOS 10.12 or later. Release builds are not signed, so you allow the app in Security & Privacy settings before it opens. The code has kept moving since then, with a French translation added in 2025, but no newer build exists.
+
+Only MacBooks with a Touch Bar can use it.

-Harbor handles direct HTTP and HTTPS downloads, public media links with format selection, magnet links and `.torrent` files in one window. Torrents can be previewed to pick files, watch folders and seeding limits are supported, and batches of links can be queued together.
+Harbor takes a link and downloads what is behind it, whether that is an ordinary file, a public video or audio page, a magnet link or a `.torrent` file. Everything lands in one queue where each item can be paused, resumed or retried, and the list is still there after a restart.
-Speed can be capped globally or per download through traffic profiles, and finished files open in Quick Look. It works locally with no account or hosted backend.
+- Media links go through yt-dlp, so YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest and other pages it supports can be saved as video or audio.
+- Before a torrent starts, you can preview its contents and tick only the files you want.
+- A watch folder adds any torrent file you drop into it.
+- Traffic modes called Unlimited, Balanced and Quiet, plus a custom one, set speed limits for the whole app, and a single download can override them.
+- Tags group downloads, and the list can be filtered and searched by tag.
+
+Advanced settings cover request headers, connection counts, seeding rules, proxies, trackers and an IP blocklist. Torrent traffic can be bound to one network interface, and Harbor can keep the Mac awake while transfers run.
+
+Harbor needs macOS 15.6 or later and asks for no account or subscription. Apple silicon and Intel Macs get separate disk images, and the Apple silicon build is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. A Homebrew tap is the other way to install it.
+
+A command-line tool, installed from Settings > General, controls the running app: it adds links, waits for downloads, changes limits and selects torrent files. It does nothing until you turn on Allow CLI access in the same pane. Harbor can also install a skill that lets coding agents such as Codex and Cursor use that command. Browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox exist, but they come from another developer and need a local helper.

-HardwareVisualizer shows how your computer's processor, graphics, memory and storage are behaving, using customizable dashboards with live graphs. It also records a history of those readings on your own machine, so you can look back over days or months and spot trends rather than only watching the current moment.
+HardwareVisualizer graphs what your Mac's processor, graphics and memory are doing right now and keeps a record of it. After a long render or game, you can come back and see when the load peaked and which processes were using CPU and memory.
-A system specifications page lists the installed hardware. The project ships macOS disk images for Intel and arm64 on its GitHub releases page and official website; available sensors differ between platforms, so not every metric shown on Windows is present on a Mac.
+- The Performance view shows live CPU, memory and GPU gauges and graphs, per-core usage and running processes, laid out as Panels, Compact or Monitor.
+- Insights keeps averages, peaks and lows for up to a year, and process history for up to 30 days.
+- System Specifications lists the CPU, GPU, memory, storage and network hardware and can copy the whole list as a hardware report.
+- Storage Health shows SMART data for each drive once smartmontools is installed.
+- A menu bar readout shows CPU and GPU usage, and the app can keep running there after you close the window.
+
+History goes into a local database, and how long it is kept is a setting. The developer says hardware data stays on the computer and that the app goes online only to look for updates on GitHub.
+
+Separate disk images serve Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and the project lists its Mac builds as signed and notarized. The same Tauri-based app runs on Windows and Linux. The code is GPL-3.0-or-later, while releases up to the 1.10 line remain available under MIT.
+
+Sensor coverage on the Mac is narrower than on Windows. Apple silicon Macs report power draw for the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine and whole package. The Mac build reads no CPU or GPU temperatures and no fans, and Cooling Insight, which compares temperatures against load over time, is missing.

-HealthTick alternates a work interval with a rest interval and interrupts you when it is time to stand up. The break reminder can be a corner pop-up, a centred window or a full-screen block, and the countdown pauses if it notices keyboard or mouse activity during a break.
+HealthTick counts down a stretch of work from the menu bar, then calls a break and holds you to it. The work interval can be anything from 1 to 120 minutes, and the rest from 1 to 15.
-A daily goal, streaks, badges and charts of recent weeks encourage the habit. It requires macOS 14 or later; separate Apple silicon and Intel disk images are published on GitHub, and the developer also maintains a Homebrew tap.
+When the break comes, the reminder can sit in the top-left or top-right corner, take the middle of the screen, or cover the whole display. If you touch the keyboard or mouse during the rest, the countdown pauses, which is meant to make sure you actually rest.
+
+The app needs macOS 14 or later and comes as separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, or through the developer's Homebrew tap. The Apple silicon build has no Developer ID signature. If macOS refuses to open it the first time, the README points you to Open Anyway in Privacy & Security settings. HealthTick checks for a new version each time it starts, and its README is written in Chinese.
+
+The habit side runs on numbers:
+
+- a daily target for how many breaks you take, with a way to log one you took early;
+- a streak of days on which you met the target;
+- 18 badges for streaks and for total breaks;
+- a 7-day bar chart, a 30-day heat map and weekly and monthly completion rates.

-Helium is a web browser built on Chromium with code imported from ungoogled-chromium. It includes its own fork of uBlock Origin with the project's filters and defaults, and the services behind extension downloads, !bangs, filter lists, updates and crash reports are published as open source so they can be self-hosted.
+Helium browses the web on Chromium with ads, trackers, cookie banners and third-party cookies blocked from the first page you open. The blocker is the project's own fork of uBlock Origin, with its filters, defaults and CNAME uncloaking. Helium also adds noise to some web APIs to make fingerprinting harder.
-The project is still in beta. Mac builds come from the separate helium-macos packaging repository and are offered through helium.computer, GitHub releases and the `helium-browser` Homebrew cask, with automatic updates. Helium's own code is GPL-3.0; code imported from ungoogled-chromium keeps its BSD-3-Clause license.
+- Typed `!bang` shortcuts jump straight to a site's search, resolved on your Mac.
+- Vertical tabs, split view, tab groups and tab hibernation.
+- Four layouts with toolbar options and colour themes, plus a frameless mode.
+- Chromium extensions work and can be imported from your old browser.
+
+Extension downloads, filter lists, updates and crash reports go through Helium services. Each kind of request needs your approval first, and the services are open source, so you can host your own. Requests to the Chrome Web Store pass through them anonymized. The developer says Helium makes no web requests on first launch.
+
+Some things are missing. Widevine DRM is not supported, so some streaming services will not play. There is no built-in password manager, no sync and no mobile version, and the browser is still in beta.
+
+Chromium is the open-source project behind Google Chrome. Helium keeps that engine but removes every Google service dependency, and it does not call Google services directly.
+
+Mac builds come from helium.computer or the helium-macos releases, as separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. In the 0.21.1.1 Apple silicon download, Helium.app is Developer ID-signed and notarized while the DMG itself is not. The build needs macOS 13 or later and updates itself while Helium services are enabled. Helium's own code is GPL-3.0; code imported from ungoogled-chromium keeps its BSD-3-Clause license.

-Heroic organizes games from supported stores in one launcher. It provides installation and launch controls along with settings for available compatibility tools.
+Heroic signs in to your Epic Games, GOG and Amazon Games accounts and lists the games you own there in one library. From that library you install a game, launch it, and later update, repair, move or uninstall it.
-Store accounts and purchased games remain separate from the launcher. Game compatibility on macOS varies by title and runtime.
+- Epic games go through Legendary, GOG games through Heroic's own gogdl, and Amazon games through Nile.
+- An existing Epic Games Store installation can be synced, and games already on disk can be imported.
+- Save files sync with the cloud.
+- A download queue handles several installs in turn.
+- Games and apps from outside the three stores can be added to the library and sorted into your own categories.
+
+On the Mac, Windows games run through CrossOver. Epic games with online play run too, but games with anti-cheat work on macOS only when the game allows it. The stores themselves are reachable from inside Heroic.
+
+Heroic needs macOS 14 or later. The download page has separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, offered as DMG and ZIP on the releases page. The interface comes in close to 40 languages and takes custom themes.

-Hex Fiend edits binary files without loading them fully into memory, so even huge files open and scroll quickly. You can insert and delete bytes rather than only overwrite them, search, inspect values in different number formats, and compare two files with insertions taken into account.
+Hex Fiend opens a file of any size, shows its bytes in hex, and lets you edit them in place or change the file's length. Files are read from disk as needed instead of being loaded into memory, and the project says huge files open and scroll instantly. The project says it has been tested with a 118 GB file.
-Binary templates written in Tcl describe file formats and display their structure. The editing engine is also available as a framework for other apps. The most recent release, 2.18.1, is from March 2025.
+- You can insert and delete bytes as well as overwrite them, and copy or move ranges around.
+- Copy, paste and search stay quick on very large files.
+- Opening two files and choosing File > Compare shows their differences, taking inserted and deleted bytes into account.
+- The data inspector reads the selected bytes as signed or unsigned integers or floating-point numbers, in big- or little-endian order.
+- Binary templates, small Tcl scripts, describe a file format and show each field of the structure next to the bytes.
+
+Saving writes only the regions that changed, and it does not need temporary disk space, so a huge file can be saved on a nearly full disk. The hex and data views also ship as a framework under the same two-clause BSD license, so other Mac apps can embed them.
+
+Version 2.18.1 needs macOS 10.14.6 or later. The DMG on the releases page holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-Hidden Bar adds a simple divider to the menu bar. Move less frequently used icons behind it, then show or hide that group when needed.
+Hidden Bar adds an arrow to the menu bar. Hold Command and drag the icons you rarely use to its left, then click the arrow to collapse them out of sight or bring them back.
-It suits a small, focused setup where a basic toggle is enough. Check upstream releases and issues for behavior on your version of macOS.
+- Auto collapse hides the icons again after a delay you pick.
+- A global shortcut expands or collapses the bar from any app.
+- An always-hidden section keeps icons out of view even when the bar is expanded. Option-click the arrow to reveal it.
+- Terminal settings add hover-to-expand and custom auto-collapse delays.
+
+A new menu bar icon always appears at the far left, so a freshly installed or updated app can land in the hidden zone. Drag it to the right of the divider once and macOS remembers the spot. On macOS 27 the direct-download build hides icons by a new method that needs the Accessibility permission. There, hiding works per app, and the clock, Wi-Fi, Sound and Control Center always stay visible.
+
+Hidden Bar needs macOS 13 Ventura or later. Version 1.10 stays on the releases page for macOS 10.13 to 12. The GitHub ZIP holds a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The Mac App Store version is sandboxed, so it cannot use the macOS 27 hiding method.
+
+Bartender also tidies the menu bar and adds search, triggers and custom hotkeys, and it is paid after a trial period. Hidden Bar is MIT-licensed and keeps to the arrow, the divider and the always-hidden section.

-Holeberry is a companion for people who already run Pi-hole. Its menu shows blocking status and query statistics, disables blocking for a set time or indefinitely, and can allow the domain of the tab open in Safari, Chromium or Firefox-based browsers.
+Holeberry puts a Pi-hole you already run into the Mac menu bar. The icon reflects the server's status, and the menu adds total queries and blocked domains, so daily jobs no longer need the Pi-hole admin page.
-It supports Pi-hole v6, with v5 described upstream as not fully tested, and can keep up to two instances in sync. The project requires macOS 14 or later and does nothing without a reachable Pi-hole server.
+- Blocking can be switched off for a set time or until you turn it back on. A countdown pill sits in the menu bar, and blocking returns when it runs out.
+- When a page fails because Pi-hole blocked it, one click unblocks that domain for the tab open in Safari, Orion, Chrome and other Chromium browsers, or Firefox and Zen. You can allowlist it instead.
+- A list of recently blocked domains, from your Mac or from every client, lets you unblock or allowlist entries.
+- Gravity updates, which refresh Pi-hole's blocklists, run from the menu, from a global shortcut, or on a schedule of every 6 or 12 hours, daily or weekly.
+
+Holeberry needs Local Network access to reach the servers, plus Automation access for each browser if you use tab unblocking. The app needs macOS 14 or later and is a Universal build, which the developer says is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. It is an independent project, not affiliated with Pi-hole LLC.
+
+Up to two Pi-hole servers can be connected, and every action goes to both at once. That keeps them in step when the Mac sends its DNS queries to the second server. Pi-hole v6 is supported, and v5 support is marked as not fully tested. Passwords go into the macOS Keychain, and instances without a password work too. Deeper settings such as adlists and DHCP stay in the Pi-hole web interface.

-Hoppscotch Desktop brings the project's API request tools into an installable application. It helps organize endpoints and examine responses during development.
+Hoppscotch Desktop is where you build an API request, send it and read the reply. You pick a method, enter the URL, add headers, parameters and a body, and the response comes back with its status, headers and a preview of JSON, XML, HTML or images. The app wraps the Hoppscotch web client in a Tauri shell.
-Use the upstream desktop download instructions to choose the macOS build. Hosted services and enterprise offerings are separate from the open-source core.
+- REST requests can use any HTTP method, including custom ones such as `LIST`.
+- GraphQL queries run against a schema fetched from the endpoint.
+- Realtime tabs connect to WebSocket, Server-Sent Events, Socket.IO and MQTT.
+- Authorization covers Basic, Bearer tokens, OAuth 2.0 and OIDC with PKCE.
+- Pre-request scripts in JavaScript can set environment variables before a request goes out.
+
+Requests are kept in collections with nested folders, which export to a file or a GitHub gist. A cURL command can be imported, and any request can be turned into code snippets for more than ten languages and frameworks.
+
+Separate disk images serve Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and the Apple silicon app is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Desktop version numbers drop the first two digits of the year, so 26.10.1 is the desktop build of release 2026.10.1.
+
+The logo menu in the top-left corner decides where your workspaces live. That can be Hoppscotch Cloud after you sign in, an organization's instance, or a server you host yourself once its configuration allows the app's origin. Postman also builds, sends and organizes API requests, and sells paid plans on top of a free sign-up. The Hoppscotch Community Edition server is free and MIT-licensed, so a team can host its own instance on its own infrastructure.

+What it can show depends on the chip. On an Intel Mac, Hot reads the CPU temperature, the speed limit the system has imposed because of heat, the scheduler limit and the number of CPUs available. By default the menu bar text turns orange when the speed limit drops below 60 percent.
+
+Apple silicon does not report a speed limit. There, Hot shows the CPU temperature next to the system's thermal pressure, and the text turns orange whenever the pressure is anything other than nominal. On these Macs Hot can also show a graph of all the sensors.
+
+The download is a single Universal app for both kinds of Mac. It needs macOS 10.13 or later and is notarized by Apple. Hot is MIT-licensed, and its latest release, 1.9.4, dates from July 2024.

-HotkeyClash inspects application menus, macOS shortcuts, and supported configuration files to identify overlapping key combinations. It distinguishes definite global conflicts from combinations that may only overlap in certain contexts.
+HotkeyClash shows you where two programs claim the same keyboard shortcut. It runs from the menu bar, scans your Mac and lists each clash in a split view, with a sidebar of conflicts and a detail pane naming the apps involved.
-Use its report to find the relevant app or setting when a shortcut behaves unexpectedly. Accessibility access is needed to inspect running applications' menus.
+It collects shortcuts from three places. It reads the menus of running apps through the Accessibility API. It parses the configuration files of Alfred, BetterTouchTool, Hammerspoon, Karabiner-Elements, Keyboard Maestro and skhd, plus Obsidian's custom command hotkeys, which never appear in its menus. And it reads macOS system shortcuts such as Spotlight, Mission Control and Screenshots, along with Globe (fn) shortcuts.
+
+Two global shortcuts on the same keys count as a definite conflict. A global shortcut that overlaps an app's menu item is a potential one, since it only matters while that app is in front. HotkeyClash also guesses which shortcut wins from where each tool hooks into the keyboard, and says so when two sit at the same level and it cannot tell. To check for real, press a combination and it reports which app caught the keypress.
+
+You can search by app, action or key and export the report as Markdown. Scanning running apps needs Accessibility permission; config files and system shortcuts are read without it. HotkeyClash requires macOS 14 or later. Version 0.9.3 is a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and the developer says it has no telemetry.

-Hydrogen focuses on percussion: load a drum kit, place hits in patterns, and arrange those patterns into a song. Per-instrument controls help shape timing and dynamics.
+Hydrogen sequences drums from patterns. In the Pattern Editor you place hits for each instrument of a kit on a grid, and the Song Editor lines those patterns up along a timeline that can also carry tempo changes.
-It works well as a focused rhythm-writing tool before moving a track into a larger audio production workflow.
+- Each note has its own properties, such as velocity, pan and a lead or lag in timing, and a piano-roll view is also available.
+- Swing and humanize controls loosen the feel of a song.
+- Instruments can stack several sample layers, and the Sample Editor can pitch-shift and time-stretch samples when Rubber Band support is available.
+- A mixer gives each instrument its own channel strip.
+- MIDI input and output and an OSC interface let a controller or other software drive it.
+
+Version 1.2.7 is a patch release with bug fixes and updated translations. It opens songs and kits made with the old 0.9.3 version and prepares the file formats for the coming 2.0.
+
+The Mac download is a disk image for macOS 10.14 or later. It holds an Intel-only build with no code signature. Builds for older systems are on the project's homepage, and the same release covers Windows and Linux. Hydrogen is licensed under GPL-2.0 or, at your choice, any later version.
+
+Many drum kits are available, and the Sound Library keeps kits, patterns and songs in one place. Besides sequencing, Hydrogen plays its kits as a drum synth, and the project pitches it for anything from practice at home to live sets.

-Hyper is a desktop terminal whose interface is built using web technologies. Themes and extensions let users change both its appearance and parts of its behavior.
+Hyper runs your shell in a window drawn with web technology: Electron hosts the app and xterm.js renders the terminal. You change it by editing one JavaScript file, `.hyper.js`, kept in `~/Library/Application Support/Hyper/` on a Mac.
-It can suit developers who already enjoy working with JavaScript configuration. The upstream project provides macOS installation images.
+- Plugins are npm packages. List one under `plugins` in the config and Hyper installs it into `.hyper_plugins`, then shows a notification.
+- Themes are plugins too, usually a single hook that rewrites the config.
+- Keys can be remapped.
+- Settings cover the font, the shell path and its arguments, and environment variables for new sessions.
+
+Extensions hook into the same React components and Redux actions the terminal itself is built from, and into Electron's windows and menus. A plugin can therefore change behavior as well as colors.
+
+Development has stopped, and the GitHub repository is archived and read-only. The last version, 3.4.1, ships as separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads in DMG and ZIP form. The Apple silicon app is a Developer ID build, notarized by Apple, and asks for macOS 10.13 or later.

-Ice helps organize the app icons that collect in the macOS menu bar. Hide items you do not need all the time and reveal them when you do.
+Ice hides menu bar items you do not need all the time and shows them again when you ask. Items go into a visible section, a hidden section or an always-hidden section, and you arrange them with drag and drop. Hover over the menu bar, click an empty part of it, scroll or swipe on it, or press a hotkey to bring hidden items back. They can also hide again on their own.
-Its appearance and layout options give you control over how the menu bar fits your workspace. The upstream project documents current macOS compatibility and known issues.
+On a MacBook with a notch, the Ice Bar shows hidden items in a separate strip below the menu bar. They no longer disappear behind the notch. Other features include:
+
+- a search panel for finding a menu bar item;
+- hiding an app's menus when they would overlap visible items;
+- a solid or gradient tint, shadow, border, and rounded or split shape for the bar itself;
+- adjustable spacing between items, marked as beta.
+
+Bartender also hides and rearranges menu bar items. Ice costs nothing, and the developer takes donations. Layout profiles, item groups and items that appear under trigger conditions are planned, according to the developer, but not built yet.
+
+Ice needs macOS 14 Sonoma or later because it depends on system APIs added in that version. A universal zip covers Apple silicon and Intel; it is Developer ID-signed, notarized, and the app can update itself. The last stable release came out in October 2024. Builds that fix problems on macOS 26 Tahoe have so far appeared only as pre-releases, the newest in September 2025.

-Iconizer creates the folder structure of an Xcode asset catalog and fills it with App Icon, launch image and image set files generated from one source image. It is for developers who would otherwise export each size by hand.
+Iconizer turns one dropped image into a finished Xcode asset catalog: choose the targets, click Export, and it builds the folder structure and renders every image size the catalog needs.
-The 2020.11.0 DMG is a universal build with a minimum of macOS 10.10. It is not code-signed or notarized, so macOS blocks the first launch. Allow it in System Settings under Privacy & Security. The last release is from November 2020, and the last commit from October 2021.
+It covers three kinds of asset. App icons can be made for macOS, iPhone, iPad, CarPlay and Apple Watch, either as separate catalogs or combined into one. Launch images for iPhone and iPad come from a landscape and a portrait image, or from one square image used for both, and Iconizer tries to keep the aspect ratio. For an image set, you give it a @3x image and a name, and it writes the 1x, 2x and 3x versions.
+
+Source size matters. The project site suggests 1024 by 1024 pixels for icons, and 2208 by 1242 for a landscape launch image (1242 by 2208 for portrait).
+
+The 2020.11.0 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that declares macOS 10.10 or later.

-IINA+ works alongside the IINA media player to open videos and live streams from Chinese platforms such as Bilibili, Douyu, Huya and Douyin, and adds danmaku, the scrolling viewer comments those sites are known for, on top of playback for supported services. It can also show whether followed live rooms are currently on air.
+IINA+ takes a link from Bilibili, Douyu, Huya, Douyin and a few other Chinese video and live-streaming sites, works out the stream behind it and plays it in IINA. On sites that support it, danmaku, the viewer comments that scroll across the picture, are drawn over the video.
+
+Support differs by site:
+
+- Bilibili videos and bangumi episodes play with danmaku.
+- Bilibili Live, Douyu, Huya and Douyin streams play with danmaku and report whether a room is live.
+- cc.163 and live.qq streams play and report live status, without danmaku.
+
+IINA 1.3.2 or later has to be installed. Danmaku come from a plugin that IINA+ installs into IINA from its own settings, after which IINA needs a restart. For live danmaku, IINA+ has to stay open while you watch.
+
+The setup guide is in Chinese. Release 0.8.34 is a Universal app for macOS 13.5 or later. That build has no Developer ID signature, and the guide tells you to allow it under Privacy & Security when macOS reports an unidentified developer.
+
+Bookmarks hold the channels you follow. You add one by right-clicking an empty part of the bookmarks page, and double-clicking a bookmark opens its stream. On sites that report it, each bookmark shows whether the room is on air. Bilibili's feed of followed updates needs you to sign in from the settings.
-Support varies by site, and the project's table lists which ones have live status, video decoding and danmaku. Documentation is mainly in Chinese, and IINA itself needs to be installed.

-IINA brings a native Mac interface to the mpv playback engine. Open local videos, audio files and supported online streams in a player with configurable controls.
+IINA puts mpv, the open-source playback engine, behind an interface that follows Mac conventions, so you play video and audio in a familiar window.
-Picture-in-picture, subtitle controls and a compact music mode make it a useful everyday player. Check the upstream release notes for supported macOS versions.
+You control it with trackpad gestures and the system media controls, and it supports Picture in Picture and Live Text. The on-screen controls, sidebars and other interface items can be rearranged. Community plugins add more. Examples include extra subtitle sources, video tools and alternative interfaces.
+
+PotPlayer also plays video files, but its official site offers it only for Windows.
+
+IINA runs on macOS 12 or later on Apple silicon and macOS 11 or later on Intel Macs. Each release ships as a single disk image, attached to the GitHub release and linked from the website. It is free, maintained by its community and supported by donations. The code is GPL-3.0, while the website artwork used for the icon and screenshot is credited separately.
+
+The website states that IINA contains no tracking or telemetry.

+iloader gets SideStore onto an iPhone or iPad from your Mac. Connect the device by USB, sign in with your Apple Account, and choose an action; for SideStore, iloader installs the app, imports the certificate and places the RPPairing and Lockdown pairing files it needs. It can also install LiveContainer together with SideStore, or any other IPA file.
-It manages pairing files for tools such as SideStore and StikDebug, and lists the development certificates and app IDs on your Apple Account so you can revoke old ones. When something fails, it suggests likely fixes and keeps logs you can share.
+- Pairing files can be placed into other apps that need them, such as StikDebug and Protokolle.
+- The development certificates and app IDs on your Apple Account are listed, and you can revoke them.
+- Common errors come with suggested fixes, and a log viewer shows what went wrong, with a Debug level for more detail.
+- The interface is translated into many languages.
-You have to give iloader your Apple Account credentials, which it uses to sign apps through Apple's developer services; the project says its GitHub releases and iloader.app are the only official downloads. A universal macOS build is published. The iloader name and artwork are covered by a separate branding notice rather than the MIT code license.
+The tradeoff is your Apple Account password. iloader handles the credentials itself to sign apps, and its developer advises caution with this kind of software. The source is public, and the releases are built by GitHub Actions from that code. Only the GitHub releases and iloader.app are official downloads; the Homebrew cask is maintained by the community.
+
+The current line receives only important bug fixes while a rewrite, iloader-next, is in development. Version 2.4.1 is a Universal DMG for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 10.13 or later, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The code is MIT-licensed. The iloader name and artwork fall under a separate branding notice.

-ImageOptim brings several image optimization tools together in a Mac application. It is useful for preparing image assets before publishing them on a website or sharing them with others.
+Drag images onto ImageOptim's window and it runs several optimizers on each file and combines their results into the smallest file. By default the image looks exactly the same afterwards.
-The project combines optimizers for multiple formats. Check the app's options before processing originals so the chosen compression behavior fits your workflow. The official bundle includes PNGOUT under a separate license.
+The optimizers include Zopfli, PNGOUT, OxiPNG, AdvPNG, Pngcrush, JPEGOptim, Jpegtran, Guetzli, Gifsicle, SVGO and svgcleaner. PNGOUT is bundled with its author's permission and is not covered by the GPL. On large PNG files, turning off PNGOUT and Zopfli in Preferences speeds things up at a small cost in size.
+
+ImageOptim also strips EXIF data such as GPS position and camera serial number, along with embedded thumbnails, comments and unneeded color profiles. You can keep the metadata by unchecking Strip JPEG metadata.
+
+- Lossy minification trades a little quality for much smaller JPEG, PNG, SVG and animated GIF files.
+- Files dropped on the Dock icon are processed the same way.
+- The Services menu in Finder sends images to it.
+- A command-line interface and a Sketch plugin cover scripted and design workflows.
+
+ImageOptim is not sold on the App Store, and the developer warns that copies there are knock-offs. The official download is a .tbz2 archive from imageoptim.com. The site lists macOS 11 or later, and version 1.9.3 inside is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-Imark opens Markdown files as rendered documents and keeps them current while you edit them in another app, holding your scroll position across saves. It adds a foldable outline, wiki-link navigation, and a Quick Look extension so Finder previews show formatted text.
+Imark opens a `.md` file as a rendered page and keeps it in step with the copy on disk. When you save in another editor, the view updates in place and keeps your scroll position, even through the delete-and-rename that some editors use for an atomic save.
-Comments attached to a passage are written into the document as HTML comments, which keeps them portable. An editing switch is available, but the app is designed first as a reader alongside your usual editor.
+Comments are its other job. You select a phrase and write a note, and Imark writes it into the Markdown source as an HTML comment, which means the note survives email, a commit or another app. Pressing Space on a Markdown file in Finder shows the same rendering through Quick Look.
+
+- GitHub-flavored Markdown renders with tables, footnotes, front matter, syntax highlighting, Mermaid diagrams and KaTeX math.
+- Ticking a task-list box writes the change back to the file.
+- A foldable outline sits in the sidebar, and `[[note]]` wiki-links open files from the same folder, with back and forward history.
+- Tabs, find with a match counter and on-device translation of a selection round it out.
+
+Documents render with network requests blocked and remote images refused. Imark needs macOS 14 or later. The 0.6.9 disk image holds an Apple silicon build, signed with a Developer ID and notarized; a Universal build for Intel Macs is still in testing.
+
+A pencil switch in the toolbar turns the page into a plain text editor with line numbers and marks beside changed lines. While edits are unsaved, live reload stops, and a save is refused if the file changed underneath you. The toolbar's Open in… item passes the file to editors such as Zed, Sublime, VS Code and Cursor, or to Claude and ChatGPT. A bundled review skill lets Claude Code and Codex open a plan and wait for your comments.

-ImHex is a hex editor built for people who take binary files apart. Beyond byte editing, patch management and many data views, its pattern language describes structures, arrays, pointers and bitfields so a file's layout can be parsed and highlighted automatically.
+ImHex opens files, raw disks, process memory and other data sources as hex, and lets you patch them byte by byte with unlimited undo and patch management. Its pattern language uses a C-like syntax to describe structs, unions, arrays, pointers and bitfields. When a pattern runs, ImHex parses the data and colours each field in the hex view, and patterns can load on their own by MIME type or magic value.
-It also includes tools such as a data inspector, an integrated disassembler and diffing between data sources. Most of the code is GPL-2.0-only, while the plugin library and some plugins use LGPL-2.1. Separate Intel and Apple silicon builds are offered for macOS.
+- A data inspector reads the bytes at the cursor as integers, floats, LEB128, strings, timestamps, GUIDs or colours, and can write new values back.
+- A node-based data processor decrypts or decodes data for display without touching the source.
+- Searches cover strings, byte sequences with wildcards, regular expressions and numeric ranges.
+- A disassembler built on Capstone handles ARM, x86, MIPS, PowerPC and many other architectures.
+- Diffing compares two data sources, and YARA rules highlight their matches.
+- Hashes, entropy graphs and file-type detection are built in.
+
+The macOS release needs macOS 15 or later. Apple silicon and Intel get separate disk images, plus a slower, software-rendered Intel variant labelled NoGPU for systems without OpenGL 3.0 graphics. None of them is signed, so you allow the app in Privacy & Security settings before it opens. Most of the code is GPL-2.0-only. The plugin library and the UI plugin are LGPL-2.1 so that plugins can be proprietary.
+
+Besides files and disks, ImHex reads from a GDB server, Intel Hex or SREC files, and remote files over SFTP. A built-in content updater downloads pattern files, YARA rules, themes and other additions from the ImHex-Patterns database.

-Inkscape creates and edits vector artwork using SVG as its main format. Shape tools, paths, text, and fills support anything from a simple icon to a detailed illustration.
+Inkscape draws with shapes, paths and text, and keeps the result as SVG, so a logo or diagram prints sharply at any size. You open a drawing, pull nodes around with the node editor, and save a file that web browsers can display directly.
-Because the artwork is vector-based, it can scale without becoming pixelated. Official releases include macOS application packages.
+- Layers and grouping keep a large drawing in order.
+- Path operations combine, cut and subtract shapes from each other.
+- Text can follow a path, and markers on lines help with diagrams and flowcharts.
+- Gradients, clones, transparency and transforms come from SVG itself.
+- A built-in XML editor lets you edit the SVG markup itself.
+
+Imports cover EPS, PostScript, JPEG, PNG, BMP and TIFF. Exports include PNG and several vector formats. Many of those converters are Python extensions, and on macOS extensions stop working when Inkscape is launched from the command line, a known issue in release 1.4.4.
+
+The macOS download page has two disk images, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel Macs. The source code is mostly GPL-2.0-or-later, and the complete binaries fall under GPL 3 or later because of bundled libraries.
+
+Affinity combines vector design, photo editing and page layout in one app. Inkscape covers the vector part alone, with SVG as the file you keep.

-This is especially useful when working in multiple languages throughout the day. Configure the rules around the apps and sites where you actually type.
+Browsers can go further and switch by website. Safari, Chrome, Arc, Edge, Firefox, Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, Zen and Dia are among those supported, so a site you write in another language gets its own input source.
+

+- Force English Punctuation, set per app, types plain ASCII symbols such as brackets, quotes and semicolons where an input method would insert full-width ones.
+- The function keys can act as F1 to F12 in some apps and as media keys in others, with apps you leave alone following the system setting.
+- Shortcuts switch sources with a key combination, or with a single or double tap on modifiers such as Shift or Command.

-Insomnia provides a desktop workspace for developing and testing APIs. Request collections, environments, and response inspection help organize repeated interactions with services.
+Insomnia sends a request to an API and shows you what comes back, so you can debug a service without writing client code. It speaks REST, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSockets, Server-Sent Events and other HTTP-based protocols. Requests are kept in collections you can run as a batch.
-The core application is open source. Account-based collaboration and other hosted features may follow separate plans and terms.
+- An OpenAPI editor with a visual preview for designing APIs.
+- Test suites and a collection runner.
+- Mock servers, in Kong's cloud or self-hosted.
+- The `inso` command-line tool for linting and testing in CI pipelines.

+
+You decide where projects are stored. Local Vault keeps everything on your Mac, Git Sync writes to a Git repository you choose, and Cloud Sync stores projects with Kong, optionally end-to-end encrypted. Private environments never leave the Mac, whatever storage the project uses.
+
+Accounts are part of the deal. Without one you only get the local Scratch Pad. Most features need a free account, and Git Sync, unlimited collaboration and single sign-on sit on paid plans.
+
+Postman covers the same request building, collections and collection runner inside a larger API platform. Insomnia's source code is Apache-2.0, and Local Vault keeps your collections out of any cloud.

-iTerm2 gives terminal-heavy workflows a configurable home on macOS. Profiles, split panes, and search help organize multiple shells and revisit their output.
+You run shells in iTerm2's windows, tabs and split panes, organise them with profiles, and use it in place of the built-in Terminal app. Current releases need macOS 13 or later. iTerm2 is free, licensed under the GNU General Public License version 2.
-Shell integration and automation features can connect the terminal to a broader development setup. Its many preferences suit people who want to shape how their terminal behaves.
+Many features depend on shell integration. It configures your shell to send special escape codes to iTerm2. With it, iTerm2 knows where each command and prompt starts and which host and directory you are in. It can then mark prompts, keep per-host history, and download files over SCP with a click. Other features include:
+
+- tmux integration, where `tmux -CC` turns tmux windows into ordinary iTerm2 windows and tabs
+- triggers that run an action when output matches a regular expression
+- a hotkey window that drops down over other apps, including full-screen ones
+- inline images through the `imgcat` tool
+- instant replay to scroll back through earlier screen states
+- a Python API for custom status bar items, menu items and automation
+
+Profiles can switch automatically by hostname, user, directory or running command. So a production server can get its own background. An optional AI chat window can read terminal contents, but only when you link it to a session.

+ItsPaint opens a screenshot or a blank canvas and gives you Paint-style tools to mark it up. You number the steps, point with arrows, pixelate or cover anything private, then drag the image straight into a bug report or chat without saving a file first.
-The project states that the app does not request network access, and its drawing engine is published separately as a Swift package. Downloads come from GitHub releases, a Homebrew tap, or the Mac App Store; the README lists macOS 14 or later.
+- Step badges number themselves and can start from any number, so a sequence can continue across screenshots.
+- Pixelate turns an area into a mosaic. It hides detail but is not redaction, so real secrets need a filled shape on top.
+- Spotlight dims everything outside a box, and the highlighter uses its own ink.
+- File > New from Screenshot opens the system's screenshot crosshair, and a shortcut you switch on in settings does the same from any app.
+- Exports go to nine formats, from PNG and HEIC to AVIF, PDF and ICO, and a PDF can be signed and saved back.
+
+The painting side has pencil, brushes including a spray nib, fill, clone and eyedropper, along with lasso and Instant Alpha selections, a pixel grid and snapping. One command removes a flat background from logos and product shots, though it fails on hair.
+
+Microsoft Paint is a Windows app. ItsPaint carries its plain canvas over to the Mac and adds the markup tools above. The app leaves out the network entitlement, so the sandbox blocks any connection, and the README lists commands to confirm that on your own copy.
+
+ItsPaint needs macOS 14 or later. It comes free from the Mac App Store, from a Homebrew tap, or as a disk image holding a Universal app that is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Its drawing engine, PaintKit, is also published as a Swift package for other apps.

-Itsycal puts a calendar in the menu bar so you can check dates without switching your workspace. It can show events from the calendars available to macOS.
+Itsycal puts a small calendar in the menu bar. Click it, or press a shortcut you set, to see the month along with events from the calendars you tick in its settings, chosen from those set up in the Mac Calendar app.
-Keyboard navigation and display preferences keep it convenient for quick planning. Calendar access depends on the permissions you grant in System Settings.
+You can create and delete events from Itsycal, but you cannot edit them. It also shows Reminders that have a due date, which you can tick off, and it can join virtual meetings.
+
+- Keyboard controls cover navigation, with Vim motions and repeat counts, and a jump to any date.
+- A URL scheme, `itsycal://date/`, opens the panel at a given day.
+- The panel can show up to two months at once, with ISO week numbers and several font sizes.
+- Itsycal can stand in for the system clock in the menu bar, and you can configure how it looks.
+
+A setting makes it beep on the hour. Dark Mode is supported.
+
+The current build requires macOS 27, and an older build for macOS 11 and later stays on the download page. The current build is an Apple silicon app, notarized. Its code is under the MIT license.
+
+Fantastical connects to Google, Microsoft 365, Exchange and other services, keeps tasks next to events, and turns a typed sentence into an event. Itsycal reads the calendars the Mac Calendar app already holds and keeps to viewing, creating and deleting events. Its calendar button can even open Fantastical instead of Calendar, once you make Fantastical the default calendar app.

-Itsyhome puts your smart home in a menu: rooms, devices, scenes and custom groups, with favourites at the top and similar devices folded into one-click groups. It works with Apple HomeKit and with Home Assistant through its WebSocket API, and individual items can be pinned to their own menu bar icons.
+Itsyhome turns your smart home into a menu in the menu bar. Rooms, accessories, scenes and your own device groups sit in it, favourites go to the top, and similar devices are folded into groups such as All lights with one switch for the lot.
-Distribution is through the Mac App Store and the developer's Homebrew tap. Some features, such as iCloud sync, deeplinks and cameras, are marked as Pro in the project's feature list.
+Each control fits its device. Lights get brightness, colour and colour temperature, thermostats get modes and a target temperature, and blinds get a position slider. Locks, garage doors and security systems lock, open or arm from the menu. Contact, motion, leak, smoke and CO sensors appear as read-only rows with battery levels. Any room, device, scene or group can also be pinned as its own menu bar item with an optional keyboard shortcut.
+
+It talks to Apple HomeKit, including several homes, or to a Home Assistant server over its WebSocket API with a long-lived access token. The developer says HomeKit control stays on the local network and that Home Assistant traffic goes straight to your server with no cloud in between. The Mac app needs macOS 14 or later and comes only from the Mac App Store.
+
+It is free to download and use. A one-time Pro unlock, which also covers the iPhone, iPad and Apple TV versions, adds:
+
+- iCloud sync of favourites, groups and settings between Macs;
+- `itsyhome://` deeplinks for Shortcuts, Alfred, Raycast and Stream Deck;
+- a live camera grid and doorbell pop-ups;
+- a local HTTP server with a CLI and an event stream;
+- 30-day sensor history charts.

-Itsypad combines a tabbed scratchpad with a searchable clipboard history. The editor offers syntax highlighting, split view, checklists, and a Markdown preview, and keeps tabs and their contents between launches.
+Itsypad combines a scratchpad for jotting text with a history of what you copied. Tap the left Option key three times, or set your own shortcut, and the app shows or hides. The clipboard history can have a separate hotkey.
-It can live in the menu bar or the Dock and appear with a global shortcut. Optional iCloud sync covers scratch tabs and text clipboard entries. The DMG is free on GitHub; a Mac App Store version also exists to support development.
+The editor side works with tabs, which you can pin, reorder or split side by side or top to bottom. Tabs, their text and cursor positions come back after a restart, and content is saved as you type. Other editor features:
+
+- Syntax highlighting for more than 185 languages through highlight.js, with the language detected automatically and nine themes in light and dark variants.
+- Bullet, numbered and checkbox lists written as plain Markdown, so the text stays portable; Shift-Command-L turns lines into a checklist.
+- A rendered Markdown preview next to `.md` tabs, updated while you type.
+- Find and replace, clickable links and an option to keep the window above other apps.
+
+The clipboard side keeps up to 1,000 text and image entries in a grid or as full-width rows. You can search them, move through them with the arrow keys and preview one with Space. Command-1 to 9 copies an entry, and Option-1 to 9 pastes it into the app you were using.
+
+Through iCloud, scratch tabs and text clipboard entries can sync between Macs and the iPhone and iPad version. The developer says the app has no AI features and no telemetry. It can sit in the menu bar, the Dock or both, and the interface comes in 12 languages.
+
+Itsypad needs macOS 14 or later. The GitHub DMG of version 1.18.0 holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized by Apple. It is free under the MIT license; a paid App Store edition, bought once, also runs on iPhone and iPad.

-Itsypin lives in the menu bar and opens the websites you pin in a floating popover window or a small screen bubble, so a service can be checked without switching browsers. Pinned sites can also be opened with global keyboard shortcuts, which the README says need no Accessibility permission. It suits people who keep a few web tools open all day.
+Click Itsypin's pin in the menu bar, choose a site, and it opens in a popover you can resize from any corner. Sites can also sit as bubbles on the right or bottom edge of the screen. Hover over a bubble and it grows into a full window; move the pointer away and it shrinks back.
-It requires macOS 13 or later. The release DMG is Developer ID signed and notarized, so it opens without the Gatekeeper workaround. The project is MIT licensed and has a README with build instructions for developers.
+- Global hotkeys open a site from anywhere, and triple-tapping a modifier key such as Option works as a shortcut too. Neither needs the Accessibility permission.
+- Pages keep their state between opens, and collapsed bubbles can unload after an inactivity period you configure.
+- Each site can switch to a mobile user agent from the bubble's title bar, and can show your own icon in place of its favicon.
+- A hot corner can hide a bubble until you move the pointer into that corner.
+- Right-clicking a link or page hands it to your default browser.
+
+Pages render in WebKit, the engine Safari uses, and file uploads and JavaScript alert, confirm and prompt dialogs work. The developer says the app has no telemetry and keeps your pinned sites and settings on the Mac.

-The panel also shows now-playing artwork and playback controls, an app launcher, and support for pairing several Apple TVs with a global hotkey for each. It is distributed through GitHub releases and Homebrew.
+- Arrow keys, Return, Backspace, Escape and Space map to remote buttons.
+- Text fields on the Apple TV can be typed into directly from the Mac.
+- A now-playing view shows artwork, title, progress and playback controls.
+- An app launcher shows the installed apps in a grid you can rearrange.
+
+Several Apple TVs can be paired, each with its own global hotkey and remembered panel position. Pairing uses a four-digit PIN shown on the TV, and the credentials go into the macOS Keychain. AppleScript commands and a Shortcuts action let scripts pause or play and open the panel.
+
+Itsytv needs an Apple TV 4th generation or later on tvOS 15 or newer. If no PIN appears, the README lists the AirPlay and restriction settings to change on the TV. Volume works only when the Apple TV controls the TV over HDMI-CEC; learned infrared codes do not.

-IVPN's desktop app manages connections to the IVPN network. Its interface exposes connection status and settings for the VPN service.
+IVPN for Mac connects your Mac to the IVPN service and holds the connection to rules you set. You choose WireGuard or OpenVPN and a server, and the app manages the tunnel. Connecting needs an IVPN subscription.
-The application source is open source, but access to IVPN requires a separate paid account. The official site provides a macOS installer.
+- The firewall acts as a kill switch, on demand or always on, and guards against DNS, IPv6 and disconnection leaks.
+- Multi-hop routes traffic through several servers in separate jurisdictions.
+- Split tunnelling lets chosen apps bypass the VPN, and LAN traffic can be allowed.
+- AntiTracker blocks ads, malicious websites and trackers.
+- Trusted Wi-Fi rules connect or disconnect automatically depending on the network you join.
+- V2Ray and obfs4 help get through where VPNs are censored.
+
+WireGuard connections can be quantum-resistant, with keys and IP addresses rotated on a schedule you choose. Custom DNS servers can use DNS over HTTPS. The VPN can be paused for a while, and a command-line client sits beside the window.
+
+The current version needs macOS 12 or later, with separate downloads for Intel and Apple silicon. The Apple silicon app is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. An older 3.15.6 build remains available for macOS 10.15.
+
+CyberGhost also sells a VPN with a Mac app, run from a Romanian headquarters, with one subscription covering up to seven devices. IVPN registers accounts anonymously, and its entire desktop client is published under GPL-3.0: the daemon, written mostly in Go, that runs with system privileges, the Electron interface and the CLI.

-JabRef is a reference manager centered on BibTeX and BibLaTeX libraries. Search, group, and edit entries while keeping linked documents close to their citation data.
+JabRef keeps your references in a BibTeX or BibLaTeX library and helps you fill it, sort it and cite from it while you write. The library is a plain text file, so you can put it under version control or share it through a synced folder.
-It fits academic writing workflows that need a maintainable bibliography, especially projects already using LaTeX.
+Entries can come in from outside instead of being typed. JabRef searches online catalogues such as CrossRef, Google Scholar, IEEEXplore, PubMed, arXiv and zbMATH, fetches full records from an ISBN, DOI, PubMed ID or arXiv ID, extracts metadata from PDFs and imports more than 15 reference formats. A browser extension for Firefox, Chrome, Edge and Vivaldi sends a reference to JabRef in one click.
+
+- Hierarchical groups built from keywords, search terms or manual assignment.
+- Duplicate detection and merging, plus checks against curated catalogues to complete entries.
+- A configurable citation key generator and custom fields and entry types.
+- Linked PDFs and other files, renamed and moved according to rules you set.
+- Reading status fields such as priority, ranking and printed.
+
+For citing, JabRef pushes keys into editors including Emacs, LyX, Texmaker, TeXstudio and Vim, and inserts formatted citations into Word and LibreOffice using built-in or custom citation styles. A team can share one library through an SQL database. A command-line tool, JabKit, is also provided.
+
+JabRef is free and runs on macOS, Windows and Linux. Version 5.15 ships for the Mac as DMG and PKG installers, with separate builds marked arm64 for Apple silicon.

-Jami brings messaging and audio or video communication into a desktop client. Its distributed design differs from services built around a single central account server.
+Jami sends messages and places audio and video calls directly between devices, with no central server relaying the traffic. You create an account in the app without giving any personal information, and you can link several devices to that same account.
-The Qt client is the current cross-platform desktop application. Use the official macOS download to obtain a supported build.
+The macOS client is the Qt-based desktop app from Savoir-faire Linux. It requires macOS 13 or later on a 64-bit processor, and a separate beta build is offered alongside the stable one.
+
+- One-to-one and group chats, plus recorded audio and video messages.
+- Audio and video calls, video conferences and Rendezvous points that need no third-party host.
+- Screen sharing and media streaming.
+- An extension platform for add-on features, and a mode in which Jami acts as a SIP client.
+
+Because connections run peer to peer, two devices on the same local network can still reach each other when the internet connection is down. The project says every conversation is end-to-end encrypted with perfect forward secrecy. Jami is a GNU project, with apps for Linux, Windows, Android, Android TV and iOS as well.

-jamovi combines a data grid with statistical analysis panels and live results. The interface helps connect each analysis to the variables and options used to produce it.
+jamovi runs statistical analyses on data held in a spreadsheet. You enter or paste data into the grid, or open an SPSS, SAS, Stata, Excel, CSV or R file directly, then pick an analysis and set its options by pointing and clicking. Results and plots sit in a panel beside the data and recompute when a value or option changes.
-It is built on R and can be extended with additional analysis modules. macOS desktop installers are available from the official site.
+- Built-in analyses cover descriptives, t-tests, ANOVA and ANCOVA, correlation and linear and logistic regression, contingency tables, reliability and factor analysis.
+- Further modules, such as mixed models, meta-analysis and Bayesian methods, install from a community library, and you can write your own in R.
+- Syntax mode shows the R code behind each analysis, and the Rj editor runs R inside jamovi with your data already loaded.
+- In edit mode you can add headings, notes and formatting to the results.
+
+Plots are drawn with R's ggplot2. The data, the analyses with their options and the results are saved together in one .omv file, so whoever opens it sees the same output. The same analyses ship separately on CRAN as jmv, an R package you can call from your own scripts.
+
+The README says it is designed to feel familiar to people who use SPSS. Besides the desktop app there is jamovi Cloud, which runs in a browser and needs you to sign in. The project says the desktop version works offline and keeps your data on your own computer. The desktop app is AGPL-3.0, and the jmv analyses are GPL-2.0-or-later.

-Jan provides a desktop interface for working with language models. It can run supported models locally or connect to compatible remote services.
+Jan downloads open-weight language models and runs them on your Mac, or sends your chats to a cloud provider you connect instead. You pick a model, start a thread and talk to it in a chat window, with the model running on your own hardware.
-Model files have their own licenses and hardware requirements. The application offers a macOS download, with performance depending on the chosen model and computer.
+- Models such as Llama, Gemma, Qwen and GPT-oss come from Hugging Face and run through a bundled llama.cpp engine.
+- Cloud providers include OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, Groq and MiniMax, set up beside the local models.
+- Assistants hold their own instructions for a given kind of task.
+- A local server on `localhost:1337` speaks the OpenAI API, so other apps can use a model Jan has loaded.
+- Model Context Protocol support lets a model call outside tools.
+
+Local inference needs Apple silicon. On Intel Macs the bundled engine does not load models, and only remote providers are left. Memory decides model size: the docs put 8 GB at about 3B-parameter models, 16 GB at 7B and 32 GB at 13B, with at least 10 GB of free disk. Jan needs macOS 13.6 or later. The download is a Universal DMG whose main binary runs on both chips, and the app inside is Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+Models, threads, settings and logs sit in `~/Library/Application Support/Jan/data`. The developer says nothing in that folder is sent to the cloud.
+
+LM Studio also downloads models and runs a local server, but it is closed source. Jan's code is under the Apache 2.0 license.

-JASP provides a desktop interface for exploring data and performing statistical analyses. Its results panel keeps tables and plots close to the options that produced them.
+JASP runs statistical analyses without asking you to write code. You open a data set in a spreadsheet layout, pick an analysis such as a t-test or a regression, drag variables into place and set its options, and JASP produces the tables and plots. Change a setting and the results update.
-It supports teaching and research workflows that benefit from visible analysis settings, including both frequentist and Bayesian methods.
+The project aims to cover both frequentist and Bayesian statistics, and many analyses come in both forms. The modules go well beyond the basics:
+
+- t-tests, ANOVA, mixed models and regression, classical and Bayesian
+- factor analysis, structural equation modeling and network analysis
+- meta-analysis, including Cochrane meta-analyses
+- machine learning, time series, survival and quality control
+
+Tables and graphs support APA format, so you can copy them straight into Word. JASP opens CSV and other text files, Excel and OpenDocument spreadsheets, and SPSS, SAS, Stata, R and Minitab data files, and it is integrated with the Open Science Framework. The developers say JASP never collects user-identifiable information, and the download page states that no internet connection is needed to run it.
+
+The project wants JASP to feel familiar to SPSS users. Behind the interface, a separate engine process runs the analyses, which are written in R. The name stands for Jeffreys's Amazing Statistics Program, after the Bayesian statistician Harold Jeffreys.
+
+The Mac version needs macOS 15 Sequoia or later, with separate downloads for Apple silicon and Intel. The project asks for about 4 GB of disk space and recommends at least 8 GB of memory. The University of Amsterdam supports the project.

-Jellyfin Desktop connects a Mac to a Jellyfin media server. It combines the Jellyfin interface with a desktop playback environment for a personal media library.
+Jellyfin Desktop is the official desktop client for watching and listening to a Jellyfin server's library on your Mac. It wraps the familiar Jellyfin web interface in a Qt WebEngine window, but hands playback to libmpv instead of the browser's player. That gives you hardware decoding, audio passthrough to a receiver, and many formats that play directly rather than being transcoded by the server first.
-A Jellyfin server and media library are required separately. Upstream releases include macOS packages, sometimes under the earlier Jellyfin Media Player name.
+You need a Jellyfin server running separately. The app connects to it on startup and keeps retrying until the server answers, and you can cancel that with Escape.
+
+Version 2.0 renamed the app from Jellyfin Media Player, moved it to Qt 6 and added MPRIS media controls on Linux, early multi-profile support through command-line flags, and an option to fall back to the HTML5 player. Settings from Jellyfin Media Player are not carried over, so you will need to add your server again. Each profile keeps its settings in `~/Library/Application Support/Jellyfin Desktop`, and you can drop in an `mpv.conf` file to tune the player directly.
+
+Plex works on the same model: a Plex Media Server holds your personal media, and Plex Pass is its premium subscription. The Jellyfin server Jellyfin Desktop talks to is also free software, so you can read or change the whole stack. The project currently points Mac users to development builds for Apple silicon and Intel, built from the latest code. The Homebrew cask still installs the older Jellyfin Media Player 1.12.0.

-Several synchronization options are available, including the project's paid service. You can choose an option that fits your existing storage and devices.
+Everything is kept on the Mac first, so notes stay readable without a connection. Sync is optional and works with Joplin Cloud, Nextcloud, Dropbox, OneDrive, S3, WebDAV or a folder on disk. Synced notes can be end-to-end encrypted. Joplin Cloud is the project's paid hosted service and adds sharing and publishing notes to the web.
+
+- Evernote exports import with formatting, attachments and metadata such as creation dates and location.
+- Plain Markdown files import as well.
+- A Web Clipper for Firefox and Chrome saves pages and screenshots into a notebook.
+- Plugins and themes change features and looks.
+- The same notes open in the Windows, Linux, Android and iOS apps.
+
+Joplin reads Evernote's export files directly, so a notebook moved from Evernote keeps its attachments and dates. After that, you choose where the notes sync, if anywhere.
+
+The Mac release comes in separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel, as DMG, ZIP or PKG. The app is free under the AGPL v3 or later.

-Kaku is a macOS terminal built on WezTerm that tries to be comfortable without a configuration session first. It arrives with JetBrains Mono, automatic light and dark themes, copy-on-select, familiar Mac shortcuts, tabs and split panes that are restored when you reopen it, and a right-click menu for common actions.
+Kaku opens as a ready-to-use terminal: JetBrains Mono, a light or dark theme that can follow the system, shell completions and syntax highlighting are set up before you type anything. It is built on WezTerm, so the full Lua configuration is still there when you want it, and most existing WezTerm configs carry over.
-An optional assistant can suggest commands or chat alongside your coding tools, and the full WezTerm Lua configuration is still available. Disk images are on GitHub releases and the app is in the official `kaku` Homebrew cask.
+Cmd-T opens a tab and Cmd-D splits a pane. Windows, panes and working directories come back after a restart. A right-click menu covers pasting, searching, splitting and closing, and Cmd-click opens URLs and file paths even when a long URL wraps across lines.
+
+- An optional assistant suggests a fix when a command fails, and Cmd-Shift-E puts it at the prompt for you to check.
+- Typing `#` and a description at the prompt turns it into a command.
+- Cmd-L opens a chat about the terminal output or project files.
+- `kaku remote` gives a link for using the same session from a browser on another computer.
+- Shortcuts open Lazygit and the Yazi file manager if they are installed.
+
+For the AI parts you bring a provider: `kaku ai` links your existing Codex connection, or an API service you configure. Kaku does not provide or relay that service, and the terminal works the same without it.
+
+Kaku runs only on macOS and needs no account. The download is a DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Homebrew has it as the `kaku` cask. `kaku update` or Check for Updates in the app menu installs new versions.

-Kap records a selected area of your screen and provides an export workflow for short demonstrations. It is useful for showing a bug, a small interaction or a product detail.
+Kap records part of your screen and turns it into a short clip you can send. Click its menu bar icon, drag out the area you want, press record, and click the icon again to stop. While it records, Option-click the icon to pause, or right-click it for more options.
-Export recordings in supported video or animated formats and extend the workflow with plugins. Review plugin destinations before sending recordings that contain private information.
+The recording then opens in an editor window where you trim it and pick the output. Kap exports GIF, MP4, WebM and APNG, with audio if you want it, and it can highlight your clicks so a viewer can follow along.
+
+Plugins are npm packages that you browse and install from the Plugins pane in Preferences. Share plugins add targets to the export menu, such as uploading to Giphy or Streamable. Edit plugins process the trimmed recording before it is converted, for example to reverse it. Record plugins sit in the Plugins submenu of the cropper's context menu and hook into stages of the recording. Anyone can publish one to npm with a `kap-` prefix and the `kap-plugin` keyword.

+Kap needs macOS 12 or later. Apple silicon and Intel get separate downloads; the Apple silicon build is notarized. Homebrew installs it with `brew install --cask kap`. Version 3.6.0, from October 2022, is still the latest release.

-Karabiner-Elements changes how keys behave, from straightforward replacements to complex combinations. It helps adapt external keyboards, create more useful modifier keys, and tailor input to repeated tasks.
+Karabiner-Elements catches keyboard input before macOS acts on it and rewrites it by your rules. Simple modifications, set in its Settings window, swap one key for another, such as Caps Lock for Control. Complex modifications cover key combinations and conditions, including rules that change with the app in front.
-The project publishes macOS installers and extensive rule documentation. Its EventViewer companion helps inspect key events while configuring mappings.
+Complex rules are stored as JSON in the karabiner.json configuration file. You write your own or import ready-made sets from a community library. It includes Emacs and Vi key bindings, a diamond cursor, mouse keys and a guard against pressing Command-Q by accident. EventViewer, bundled with the app, shows what each key press sends. The app is free, and donations are optional.
+
+Version 16 supports macOS 13 Ventura through macOS 26 Tahoe on both Apple silicon and Intel, and macOS 27 on Apple silicon only. Older installers for systems back to OS X 10.9 stay on the official site. The disk image holds an installer package that Apple has notarized and that carries a Developer ID signature. Setup asks you to approve a driver extension, which supplies a virtual keyboard and mouse. You also grant Accessibility permission and keep its background items enabled.
+
+The developer says keystrokes and settings are processed on the Mac and never sent out. Update checks send the app version to the developer's server, which logs the IP address and time like any web request. You can turn automatic checks off.
+
+AutoHotkey remaps keys on Windows through an automation scripting language. Karabiner-Elements runs only on macOS, and a rule can call a shell command.

-Kaset wraps YouTube Music and YouTube in a Mac app with a sidebar library, search, queue management, synced lyrics where available and podcasts. It reports what is playing to Control Center, responds to media keys and keeps audio playing after the window closes.
+Kaset plays YouTube Music and YouTube in a Mac window with a sidebar and a player bar, and a switch at the bottom of the sidebar flips between the two. DRM-protected YouTube Music tracks play through your own Premium subscription, and signing in with a Google account personalizes both services.
-Playback runs through WebKit, and protected YouTube Music content requires your own Premium subscription. Some features, including on-device AI helpers, need macOS 26. It is not affiliated with Google.
+On the music side:
+
+- Synced lyrics highlight line by line when the song has timing data.
+- A six-band equalizer with presets works on the audio output.
+- The queue can be reordered, shuffled or cleared, and smart shuffle mixes in suggested tracks.
+- You can browse your playlists, liked songs and podcasts, create playlists, and open Explore for new releases and charts.
+
+The YouTube side covers recommendations, subscriptions, Shorts, Watch Later, history and comments, with captions, quality selection and picture in picture.
+
+Kaset shows up in Now Playing in Control Center, answers media keys and keeps playing after you close the window. AppleScript, Shortcuts actions, a `kaset://` URL scheme and keyboard shortcuts let you drive it from elsewhere. Playback runs in WebKit, which can load Web Extensions such as uBlock Origin Lite and SponsorBlock if you add them. On macOS 26, Apple Intelligence explains lyrics and takes requests in plain language.
+
+Kaset needs macOS 15.4 or later and ships as a Universal disk image. It is not signed with a Developer ID or notarized. A manual download therefore needs Open Anyway in Privacy & Security, while the Homebrew tap clears the quarantine flag for you. Kaset is an unofficial app with no ties to Google or YouTube.

-Kdenlive provides a timeline-based editing environment for assembling footage and sound. Its effect controls and project tools support both simple cuts and more involved productions.
+Kdenlive puts your clips, music and titles on a multitrack timeline where you trim, rearrange and layer them, then renders the result to a video file. The name stands for KDE Non-Linear Video Editor, and the KDE community builds it on the MLT multimedia framework.
-Proxy editing can make larger footage easier to work with. Official macOS downloads are available for Intel and Apple Silicon systems.
+- Footage in almost any audio or video format goes into bins with tags and filters, and proxy clips keep playback smooth on slower machines.
+- Editing covers multicam, three-point edits, nested sequences and markers, with automatic backups of the project.
+- Hundreds of audio and video effects accept keyframes, and compositions combine layers.
+- Color work runs from LUTs to detailed grading, checked on a histogram, vectorscope, RGB parade and waveform.
+- Subtitles can start from automatic transcription, and the audio side has mixers and voiceover recording.
+
+Final Cut Pro is Apple's own editor, sold once on the App Store or as part of a subscription bundle. Kdenlive is free and open source, and it also runs on Linux, Windows and BSD.
+
+Version 26.08.3 needs macOS 13 Ventura or newer. Separate disk images exist for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon image is signed by KDE e.V. and notarized. Daily builds are also offered for testing. They can corrupt existing projects, so keep them away from work you care about.

-KeePassXC stores credentials in an encrypted local database and includes tools for organizing entries and generating passwords. Optional browser integration helps fill credentials on websites.
+KeePassXC keeps your logins in a single encrypted database file. You unlock it with a master password, optionally with a YubiKey or OnlyKey as well, and copy or type an entry's username and password into the app or site that asks for it. The file uses the KDBX format, so other KeePass-compatible apps can open the same database.
-You choose how to back up or synchronize the database. The upstream code permits GPL version 2 or version 3; bundled components and artwork carry the additional notices in COPYING.
+- Entries sit in groups you define, with custom titles, icons, attachments and extra fields.
+- The password generator creates new passwords, and the app stores TOTP secrets and shows the current one-time code.
+- Browser integration fills logins and handles passkeys in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Chromium, Vivaldi, Brave and Tor Browser.
+- Auto-Type enters a username and password into other applications for you.
+- Database reports rate password health and can check passwords against Have I Been Pwned.
+
+Syncing is up to you, since KeePassXC has no cloud sync of its own. The database is a plain file, so you can keep it in a cloud folder such as Dropbox or only on your Mac. Entry history lets you restore an older version of a changed entry. The `keepassxc-cli` tool and an SSH agent integration cover terminal work.
+
+KeePassXC needs macOS 12 or later, with separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The Apple silicon app in version 2.8.0 is notarized by Apple. The code is licensed under GPL version 2 or 3.
+
+1Password keeps vaults synchronized across your signed-in devices and is sold by subscription. KeePassXC involves no cloud service or third party. Moving over is possible, since it imports 1Password, Bitwarden, Proton Pass, CSV and KeePass1 data.

-KeepingYouAwake puts a simple control for preventing sleep in the menu bar. Activate it for a preset duration or leave it running while a long task or presentation needs your computer to stay awake.
+KeepingYouAwake stops your Mac from going to sleep for as long as you need it awake. Click its menu bar icon once and sleep is off until you click again. If you would rather it switch itself off, pick one of the preset durations instead. It can also turn itself off when the battery runs low.
-It uses the sleep-prevention facilities built into macOS. It does not keep a MacBook awake with its lid closed.
+Underneath, the app runs `caffeinate`, the command-line tool that current versions of macOS include. That also sets its limit. A MacBook with its lid closed still goes to sleep; only desktop Macs and open laptops stay awake.
+
+Amphetamine adds triggers that start a session on their own, for example while an external display is connected, and it can keep a closed MacBook running. KeepingYouAwake has the switch and the timer and nothing else.
+

-KeeWeb reads and writes KeePass `kdbx` files, so it can share a vault with KeePass, KeePassXC and other compatible apps. It runs as a desktop application or as a self-hosted web app, and can open files from cloud storage such as Dropbox.
+Open an existing KeePass `kdbx` file in KeeWeb, or create a new vault. It reads files made by KeePass, KeePassXC and similar apps. You can run it as a desktop app on macOS, Windows and Linux, or in a browser through the project's hosted web app.
-The latest desktop release, 1.18.7, dates from July 2021, with separate macOS builds for Apple silicon and Intel. Weigh the age of that build when choosing a tool for sensitive credentials.
+The database can stay a local file or live on a server of your own or in Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive, and KeeWeb syncs changes from there. Files opened from the cloud are kept for offline use, and edits made offline sync when the connection returns.
+
+- Several databases can be open at once, searched from one box or viewed as a single list.
+- Search can target specific fields, passwords and history, and accepts regular expressions.
+- Every change goes into history, and you can roll an entry back to any earlier state.
+- Entries take tags, color marks, attachments and icons, including a site's favicon.
+- A password generator lets you set the length and allowed characters.
+
+Because KeeWeb is a single HTML file with an optional service worker, you can also host it on your own server, and the project documents Docker setups for that.
+
+The newest macOS builds are still from version 1.18.7, released in July 2021 as separate Apple silicon and Intel disk images. Version 1.18.9, from May 2026, ships Linux packages and the web app but no Mac build. The Apple silicon app is Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+With 1Password, vaults sit in a subscription account, protected by your account password and a Secret Key and synced across signed-in devices. KeeWeb leaves the encrypted file wherever you put it.

-Keyboard Cowboy builds workflows from actions such as launching apps, running scripts, and manipulating files. You can trigger those workflows from shortcuts or application context.
+Keyboard Cowboy runs workflows, sequences of commands started by a keyboard shortcut, a typed snippet, or an app launching, quitting or coming to the front. One workflow can open an app and then a file in it, choose a menu bar item, type text, run a script or a Shortcut, and switch windows or, on macOS Sequoia, tile them.
-Its visual interface helps organize related actions. The upstream project documents requirements and provides downloadable macOS releases.
+Commands in a workflow run one after another, with an optional delay between them, or all at once. Workflows live in groups, and you drag them to change their order.
+
+Shortcut triggers have several options:
+
+- A trigger can be a single keystroke or a sequence of keys.
+- A leader key works like Vim's: press it, then type the rest of the sequence within a short timeout. If nothing matches, the leader key reaches the app as normal typing.
+- Hold for X seconds runs the workflow only after you keep the shortcut down, which guards against accidents.
+- Passthrough lets the keystroke continue to the system after the workflow fires, and Allow Repeat repeats the command while the key is held.
+
+Keyboard Cowboy stops listening while you type in a password field or another secure input mode. The developer says it collects no personal data and keeps everything on the Mac.
+
+Version 3.28.4 needs macOS 13 or later. Its DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+Keyboard Maestro also starts macros from hotkeys, app events and schedules, with hundreds of built-in actions including flow control and loops, and it is sold as a one-time purchase. Keyboard Cowboy builds its triggers around the keyboard, with leader keys and key sequences, and its source is MIT-licensed.

-KeyCastr shows an on-screen representation of keyboard input so viewers can follow a demonstration. Choose between command keys, modified keys, or broader key display, with optional mouse-click visualization.
+KeyCastr draws the keys you press on screen while you record a screencast, present or pair with someone. You choose how much it shows: command keys only, every key pressed with a modifier, or every keystroke. Mouse clicks can be shown as well.
-It requires macOS input-monitoring permission. Position the overlay where it supports the presentation and review the display mode before sharing your screen.
+The overlay starts at the bottom left of the display, and you drag the text to move it. Two visualizers come with the app, Default and Svelte, and developers can build their own on top of KeyCastr.
+
+macOS has to let KeyCastr receive input events. On macOS 10.15 and later it appears under Input Monitoring in the Security & Privacy settings after its first launch. On older systems you add it under Accessibility. When nothing shows up, the usual causes are a missing permission or a window placed off screen.
+
+Any app in those lists can read all of your input. The developers say KeyCastr's only network traffic is Sparkle's update check, and password fields that apps mark as secure never appear in the overlay.
+
+The GitHub release is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized, which runs on macOS 10.13 or later. KeyCastr has been free on the Mac since 2009 and uses the BSD 3-Clause license.

-KeyStats keeps a running tally of how you use your keyboard and mouse each day: key presses, left and right clicks, how far the pointer has moved and how far you have scrolled. The headline numbers sit in the menu bar, with a more detailed view a click away.
+KeyStats counts how much you type, click, move the pointer and scroll each day, and keeps the totals in the menu bar. Click the icon to open a fuller panel with recent history and all-time numbers.
-It needs Accessibility permission to observe input events. A Windows version is maintained in the same repository, and multi-device sync is optional and end-to-end encrypted according to the project. Releases are on GitHub, and the developer also maintains a Homebrew tap.
+- Per-key and key-combination counts feed a keyboard heatmap for a date range you choose.
+- A per-app breakdown shows which apps took your key presses, clicks and scrolling.
+- Left and right clicks are counted separately, and the daily figures reset at midnight.
+- You can export the current Mac's statistics as JSON and import them again.
+
+Counting starts once you grant the Accessibility permission; without it, KeyStats records nothing. The app is not signed. After a reinstall, remove its old entry under Privacy & Security > Accessibility and request the permission again from the app.
+
+Version 1.55 is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel and requires macOS 13 Ventura. It comes as a DMG or ZIP on GitHub, or through the developer's Homebrew tap, and updates itself. A Windows version lives in the same repository.
+
+The developer says KeyStats stores aggregate counts only, never the text you type, the order of your keystrokes or where you clicked. Everything stays on the Mac until you pair devices for sync. Sync encrypts the supported daily key and click totals on the device before upload. Pointer distance, scrolling and per-app figures are not currently synced.

-Keyty draws an overlay of the keys you press and the clicks you make, so viewers of a screen recording or live demo can follow along. Overlay style, size, position, history and filters for modifier, special and media keys are adjustable, and optional pointer rings, icons and click ripples highlight the mouse.
+Keyty puts the keys you press and the clicks you make on screen, so people watching a recording, a livestream or a live demo can see which shortcut you just used. Each shortcut, special key or typed character appears in an overlay and fades after a set time.
-Downloads are published on GitHub releases and through Homebrew. As with any keystroke visualizer, it needs macOS permission to receive input events and will display whatever you type while it is active, including passwords.
+- Overlay styles, themes, colours, size and fade timing are adjustable, and a history option leaves a trail of recent input.
+- Filters can hide media keys, special keys, mouse events or keystrokes that carry a modifier.
+- A ring can follow the pointer, with its own shape, colour, size and thickness, and a pointer icon overlay can sit beside it.
+- Click ripples mark each click, and scrolling is shown too.
+- You pick the display, the anchor point on screen, the margin and the direction new entries stack in.
+
+Release 1.8.0 added toggles for each visualizer in the status menu, a global switch for all input visualizations and timing settings for the mouse effects.
+
+Keyty 1.8.0 needs macOS 11 or later. Its DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. It is also available as a Homebrew cask.
+
+Showing input means reading it. The GitHub build asks for the Accessibility permission, while App Store builds use Input Monitoring instead. Typed text appears in the overlay along with shortcuts, so switch the visualizations off before you type anything private on camera. The developer says input is processed on the Mac and never recorded or uploaded, with Sparkle update checks as the only network traffic besides links you open.

-KeyType watches the text field you are typing in, in whatever app has focus, and shows a short predicted continuation as grey ghost text at the cursor. Pressing Tab accepts it. The project describes the predictions as on-device, produced by a local language model rather than a cloud service.
+KeyType offers the next few words as you type, in whichever Mac app has focus. It reads the focused text field, predicts a short continuation at the cursor and draws it there as ghost text. Press Tab to accept it.
-It positions itself as an open alternative to the commercial Cotypist. Install it from the DMG on the GitHub releases page, then follow the in-app onboarding.
+The suggestions come from a language model that runs on the Mac through llama.cpp. The README describes KeyType as an MIT-licensed alternative to Cotypist. Version 1.7 added typo and grammar correction, plus a larger model, LFM2.5-8B-A1B, meant for Macs with a lot of memory.
+
+Setup is short. Drag the app from the DMG into Applications, open it and follow the onboarding; afterwards it runs from the menu bar. KeyType needs macOS 14 Sonoma, and the release notes recommend an Apple silicon Mac for on-device inference. The 1.8 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+Placing ghost text inside other apps' fields takes per-app work, and the source has a separate package for per-app overrides. Releases 1.6 and 1.8 consist almost entirely of fixes for where the ghost text lands in particular apps, among them Xcode, Microsoft Word, Mail, Safari, Chrome and Visual Studio Code.

-KiCad connects schematic capture with printed circuit board layout. Its project tools help move from circuit design through component placement and routing.
+KiCad takes a circuit from schematic to a finished printed circuit board. You draw the schematic, lay out and route the board, and inspect the result in 3D, all inside one suite.
-A 3D board view provides another way to inspect the design before manufacturing. The suite is distributed as a macOS application bundle.
+- The Schematic Editor handles anything from one sheet to a hierarchical design with hundreds of them. You can draw your own symbols or pick from the thousands in the official library.
+- A built-in SPICE simulator and an electrical rules checker test the circuit before layout.
+- The PCB Editor has an interactive router plus visualization and selection tools for complex boards.
+- The 3D Viewer checks mechanical fit, and its raytracer renders realistic images of the board.
+- A Gerber Viewer is included as well.
+
+KiCad 10.0.8 supports macOS 12 and later. The project only supports the macOS versions Apple still updates, which in practice means the three newest. A bug seen on an older system has to be reproduced on a supported one before it gets looked at.
+
+The macOS download comes from mirrors run by GitHub, CERN, MIT and others. Testing builds of the next bugfix release and nightly development builds sit on the same page. Nightlies can carry more bugs than usual.
+
+KiCad also runs on Windows and Linux. The code is GPL, version 3 or later, and donations to the project can be made through The Linux Foundation.

-kitty provides a terminal with configurable layouts and keyboard controls. Its helper programs, called kittens, extend tasks around terminal sessions.
+kitty runs your shell in a GPU-drawn terminal window that you drive almost entirely from the keyboard. You split one window into several terminals, arrange them with a layout, and keep the whole setup in a single plain-text config file.
-Use it for a shell workspace that can display more than plain terminal text. macOS disk images are available from the upstream releases.
+- Seven layouts arrange the terminals inside a window: Fat, Grid, Horizontal, Splits, Stack, Tall and Vertical. A shortcut cycles through them.
+- Images and animations display inside the terminal through kitty's own graphics protocol.
+- Ligatures, emoji, variable fonts and clickable hyperlinks are supported.
+- You can browse the whole scrollback, or only the output of the last command, in a pager or editor.
+- Scripts and the shell can control a running kitty, and startup sessions open a fixed set of tabs and windows.
+
+Small terminal programs called kittens add the rest. Bundled ones view images, diff files with image support, enter Unicode characters and edit remote files over an existing SSH session. You can write your own in Python.
+
+The code mixes C for speed, Python for the interface and Go for the command-line kittens, and draws everything with OpenGL. A command palette lists every action you can map to a key.
+
+On the Mac, the install script puts kitty in `/Applications/kitty.app`, and running it again updates the app. The GitHub release also carries a disk image. Version 0.50.0 is a Universal build for Apple silicon and Intel, needs macOS 12 or later and is notarized by Apple.

-KLayout provides a desktop workspace for inspecting and editing chip-layout data. Layers, measurements, and scripting support detailed examination of complex designs.
+KLayout opens chip layout files in GDS and OASIS format so you can inspect, compare and edit them. Several layouts can be loaded into one window and stacked, which helps when the layers you need arrive in separate files.
-It is a specialized tool for electronic layout workflows. The download page explains the dependencies and compatibility of each macOS package.
+- Layers can be grouped, renamed, made transparent, dimmed or animated to blink, with fill patterns and colors set per layer.
+- Rulers, shape and instance browsers, bookmarks and a marker browser for error report files help with inspection.
+- Editor mode draws and changes shapes and cells, with unlimited undo, boolean operations, sizing and parametrized cells (PCells).
+- DRC and LVS functions, an XOR tool and a layout diff tool cover verification.
+
+The Mac downloads are DMGs built for particular macOS releases. Apple silicon packages target Tahoe (26.1) and GoldenGate (27.2), and Intel packages target Sonoma and Sequoia. The ST variants embed Qt and use the Ruby and Python that ship with macOS, so they need the developer tools. The LW variants expect a matching MacPorts or Homebrew setup. Windows and several Linux distributions get their own packages.
+
+Ruby and Python scripts can extend the program, and it includes a development environment for writing them. Add-ons install through a package manager called Salt.

-KnockKnock scans common places where software arranges to run automatically. It helps you inspect persistent components and follow up on unfamiliar items.
+KnockKnock lists the software set to start on its own on your Mac, at boot, at login or when another app launches. Press Start Scan and it walks the known persistence locations, then sorts what it finds into categories such as launch agents and daemons, login items, browser extensions, cron jobs, shell configuration files and kernel extensions.
-The results are an inventory for investigation, not a declaration that every listed item is malicious. The official product page explains the findings and available integrations.
+Click a category to see its items. Each row shows the path and whether the item is signed by Apple, signed by a third party or unsigned. Apple-signed items are hidden unless you turn them on in settings.
+
+- For executables, KnockKnock looks up a hash of the file on VirusTotal and shows the detection ratio, or a question mark for files VirusTotal has never seen. You can submit unknown files from the same row.
+- An info button shows the hash, size, signer and, for items registered through a property list, the plist itself.
+- Scans save as JSON, and a compare view marks items added, removed or changed since an earlier scan.
+- A command-line mode runs the same scan from Terminal, and with `sudo` it also covers other users' cron jobs.
+
+The list is an inventory. Legitimate third-party software appears in it too, and apart from VirusTotal hits the app does not judge whether an item is malicious. VirusTotal lookups need your own API key, and you can switch them off.
+
+A full scan needs Full Disk Access, which the app asks for on first launch. KnockKnock runs from wherever you unzip it, with nothing to install. It supports macOS 10.15 and later, and the download is a Universal app, notarized by Apple.

-Knopo follows the Logseq style of note-taking: every line is a block that can be indented, folded, zoomed into, referenced or embedded elsewhere. Pages link with double brackets, tags and live queries gather related blocks, and a daily journal acts as the starting page.
+Knopo edits notes as an outline of blocks and saves them as plain Markdown files in a folder you choose. Each line is a block: Return splits it, Tab and Shift-Tab indent and outdent, clicking a bullet zooms in and clicking the triangle folds it.
-The notes stay as readable Markdown files in a folder you choose, with the app maintaining a search index alongside. It is an early 0.x release, and the published builds at review time were for Apple silicon only.
+- Pages link with double brackets, and renaming a page rewrites every link to it.
+- A block can be referenced or embedded elsewhere by its ID.
+- Live queries collect blocks by tag, page link, task state or property.
+- A daily journal is the home page, and Command-K searches the whole graph.
+
+A block you have not touched is written back exactly as it was, so editing does not reshuffle your files. Beside the notes, a `.knopo` folder holds a SQLite index and settings; delete it and Knopo rebuilds it. The editor uses AppKit and SwiftUI, and the block you type in is a standard macOS text view. Graphs open in their own windows or tabs.
+
+The README calls Knopo early and warns that on-disk conventions may still change. Version 0.9.0 is an Apple silicon build for macOS 14 or later. It is not notarized, so Gatekeeper stops the app the first time a downloaded copy opens; clearing the quarantine flag or clicking Open Anyway in Privacy & Security lets it run.
+
+Obsidian also keeps notes as local files in open formats, and it adds thousands of plugins and themes, a graph view and a canvas. Knopo has no plugins and structures every page as a tree of blocks, the model Logseq uses.

-Knuff is a debugging tool for iOS and macOS developers who need to send a push notification without writing server code. It loads an APNs certificate from the keychain, detects the development or production environment, and sends a custom JSON payload to a device token; payloads can be saved as documents.
+Knuff sends a test push notification to an app on an Apple device through the Apple Push Notification service (APNs). Pick a certificate from your keychain, enter the device token, write a JSON payload and send it.
-The last release dates from 2020 and the project is no longer actively developed. It works with APNs certificates stored in the keychain.
+- It detects whether the certificate belongs to the development or the production environment.
+- Universal certificates work, and APNs error responses are shown.
+- A token and payload can be saved as a document and opened again later.
+- Command-E exports an identity to PEM format.
+
+Knuff talks to APNs over HTTP/2, and the 1.3 app declares macOS 10.12 as its minimum. Version 1.3, from May 2020, is the latest release, and no release or commit has followed it. It is Intel-only. The ZIP holds an app signed with Bowtie AB's Developer ID.
+
+Without help, getting the device token means logging it from your app and copying it over by hand. Add the Knuff-Framework to your iOS app and Knuff picks the token up on its own, which helps most outside sandbox mode. The developers also published an iOS companion app for getting started with APNs.

-Kodi, originally XBMC, is a home-theatre media center that plays and catalogues films, TV shows, music and photos from local drives and network shares. It has a ten-foot interface designed for remotes, a skinning engine, and a large add-on ecosystem.
+Kodi turns a Mac into a home-theatre front end. You point it at your media, and it scans it into a personal library with box covers, descriptions and fan art. From there you browse and play from the couch, since the interface is built to be driven with a remote control.
-The non-profit XBMC Foundation oversees the project, and macOS builds are offered from the official download page. Some third-party add-ons are not part of the project, so install them only from sources you trust.
+It plays nearly all common audio and video formats and was designed with network playback in mind, so media can be streamed from elsewhere in the house or straight from the internet. Playlists, slideshows, a weather forecast and audio visualisations come with it. The look is set by a skinning engine, and add-ons, mostly written in Python and XML, extend and customise the rest.
+
+The project dates from 2003 and is run by the non-profit XBMC Foundation with volunteer developers. The interface is translated into more than 70 languages, and the same app runs on Windows, Linux, BSD, Android, iOS and tvOS.
+
+Team Kodi publishes separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel. The 21.3 Apple silicon DMG is notarized and needs macOS 11 or later.
+
+Plex organises your files in Plex Media Server and streams them to Plex apps on your other devices, so the library and the player live on different machines. Infuse is a player for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Mac and Apple Vision. Kodi keeps the library and the player together on the machine it runs on, and that machine need not be an Apple one.

-Koodo Reader manages and reads a local ebook library in formats including EPUB, PDF, MOBI and AZW3, plain text, FictionBook, comic archives, Markdown and DOCX. It supports highlights, notes and reading progress.
+Koodo Reader keeps a library of ebooks and documents and opens them in a reader with highlights, notes and bookmarks. It reads EPUB, PDF, DRM-free MOBI and AZW3, plain text, FictionBook, comic archives, DjVu, Markdown and Word files, among others.
-Library data can be synced or backed up through services such as WebDAV, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive and others, and AI features work with a model you configure. macOS builds are published on GitHub releases alongside versions for other platforms.
+- Pages show as one column, two columns or a continuous scroll, with your choice of font, spacing, colors and margins.
+- Text-to-speech, translation and dictionary lookup work inside the book, including local MDX dictionaries.
+- Notes and highlights export as CSV, Markdown, HTML, TXT or PDF, and can be sent to Readwise, Notion, Obsidian or Joplin.
+- Reading progress can sync with KOReader, and the library can be shared as an OPDS feed.
+
+The site's FAQ says Koodo Reader Pro keeps books, reading progress, bookmarks, highlights and notes in step across your devices. Pro does this through a cloud storage service, Docker, WebDAV, FTP, SFTP, SMB or object storage. On the pricing page, the Free version has no book limit in the web and desktop apps, while the Android and iOS apps hold 20 books without Pro.
+
+On GitHub, the Mac build comes as separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, and Homebrew has a cask. The same app runs on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS and the web.
+
+The AI translation, dictionary, summary and encyclopedia tools run on a model you configure. A password, a PIN or Touch ID can lock the library. The README says the app includes no tracking services and never uploads your reading data on its own.

-Krita provides brushes, layers, selections, and drawing assistants for digital painting. Its canvas-centered workspace also supports comics and hand-drawn animation.
+You paint in Krita by picking one of the more than 100 bundled brush presets and drawing on the canvas, usually with a graphics tablet. Any tablet that works with your operating system is supported.
-It is a good fit for artists who want a substantial drawing tool on a Mac, including workflows with a graphics tablet.
+- Brushes come from more than nine engines, among them Color Smudge, Shape, Particle and a filter engine, and you can save and tag your own.
+- Three stabilizer methods smooth out shaky strokes.
+- Drawing assistants guide straight lines, ellipses, vanishing points and fisheye perspective.
+- Vector tools and a library of speech-bubble templates help with comic panels, stored as SVG.
+- Wrap-around mode repeats the image along both axes so you can paint textures that tile without visible joins.
+
+Switching to the animation workspace adds a timeline with onion skinning, simple tweening of opacity and position, and imported audio. Finished animations export as video or as a sequence of images. Color management uses LCMS for ICC profiles and OpenColorIO for EXR, and Python scripts can add your own dockers and plugins.
+
+Krita opens and saves PSD files, so artwork can move between it and Adobe Photoshop. Krita itself has no trial and no subscription.
+
+The download page lists macOS 10.15, at least 4 GB of memory with 16 GB recommended, and OpenGL 3.0. The free macOS installer is a DMG from krita.org. A paid Mac App Store version updates automatically and funds development. Krita does not run on iPad or iPhone.

-KStars shows stars and celestial objects for a selected time and location. Search tools and observing features help plan what to look for in the sky.
+KStars draws the sky for any place and time you choose, with the planets, Jupiter's moons, comets, asteroids and up to 100 million stars. Change your location to see how latitude alters the view, or run the clock fast and watch a planet trace its retrograde loop.
-Additional integrations support telescope and imaging workflows for compatible equipment. The project provides macOS installers for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
+- The observation planner sorts your list of targets into observing order and caches Digitized Sky Survey images for sites with poor or no internet.
+- Printed star charts serve as finder charts where you cannot take a laptop, and field-of-view markers follow from the focal lengths of your telescope and eyepieces.
+- What's Up Tonight lists what is visible, Altitude vs Time helps you pick observing times, and the Sky Calendar shows how the planets move across the sky over long periods.
+- Through INDI, KStars drives mounts, focusers, filter wheels and cameras, and its Ekos suite covers polar alignment, focusing, guiding and capture.
+
+The default catalog holds stars to magnitude 8 and about 10,000 NGC and IC objects. Extra catalogs take that to 100 million stars down to magnitude 16, and you can import your own. Observation logs use the OAL XML format, though the project says logging still needs polish.
+
+KDE publishes version 3.8.5 as two disk images: one for Apple silicon on macOS 11 or later, and one for Intel on macOS 10.15 or later, each with a SHA256 checksum. The project README also links a Mac App Store listing.
+
+Students get a built-in reference too. Underlined technical terms open explanations from AstroInfo, a set of pages in the KStars handbook, and the Astrocalculator handles coordinate conversions.

-KubeSwitch is a small menu bar app that lists the Kubernetes cluster contexts available on your Mac, shows which one is current, and lets you change it. It suits people who work with several clusters and want to switch context from the menu bar.
+KubeSwitch puts the Kubernetes contexts on your Mac in a menu bar list, marks the current one, and makes whichever you pick current. That is the whole job, and it saves typing `kubectl config use-context` each time you move between clusters.
-The bundle declares macOS 10.13 or later. It is signed with a development certificate and is not notarized, so macOS blocks the first launch until you allow it in System Settings. The project has had no commit since May 2019, and the download is a zip containing KubeSwitch.app.
+The latest release, 1.0.1 from May 2019, is a ZIP holding an Intel-only (x86_64) app that declares macOS 10.13 or later. Apple silicon Macs run it through Rosetta 2. It is signed with a Mac Developer certificate, an identity meant for development, and Gatekeeper rejects it. Allow it under Privacy & Security in System Settings the first time you open it.
+
+Sriram Narasimhan wrote KubeSwitch in Swift and released it under the MIT license. Its README gives one Terminal command for starting it, `open -a KubeSwitch`.
+
+The app reads `~/.kube/config` and nothing else. When you switch, it sets `current-context` in that file and writes the file back, so kubectl and any other tool reading the file see the change on their next command. A `KUBECONFIG` variable pointing at other files is ignored.

-Lan Mouse is a software KVM switch: moving the pointer off the edge of one screen carries the mouse and keyboard over to another computer on the local network. The project describes itself as an open-source alternative to Synergy and ShareMouse, and each machine in the setup runs its own copy of Lan Mouse.
+Lan Mouse lets one keyboard and mouse drive several computers on the same network. Each other machine sits on the left, right, top or bottom, and pushing the pointer past that edge hands input to it, much like Universal Control between Apple devices.
-It is written in Rust and runs on macOS, Windows and Linux, though some Linux desktops can only receive input. The project's GitHub releases include separate Apple silicon and Intel macOS downloads; the bundled Mac build runs from the menu bar rather than the Dock.
+Every computer runs its own copy. In the settings window you click Add and enter the other machine's hostname. On that machine, you then authorize yours by its fingerprint, shown under General. Lan Mouse uses UDP port 4242 by default, so the firewall has to let it through. All traffic is encrypted with DTLS, and the README notes that nothing yet guards against timing side-channel attacks.
+
+Lan Mouse also runs on Windows and on Linux with GNOME 45 or later, KDE Plasma 6.1 or later and most wlroots compositors such as Sway and Hyprland. X11 sessions can only receive input. Clipboard sharing is on the roadmap and not available yet. Besides the GTK window there is a command-line interface and a daemon mode for running in the background.
+
+Version 0.11.0 comes as separate ZIPs for Apple silicon and Intel Macs. After unzipping, the README has you clear the quarantine flag with `xattr` and grant the Accessibility permission. On the Mac it runs from the menu bar and keeps no Dock icon.
+
+The project names Synergy and ShareMouse, as well as the open-source Deskflow and Input Leap, as the tools it sets out to replace.

-LangSwitcher fixes text typed while the wrong keyboard layout was active. Select the text, or let it pick the last word or the mistyped part of the line, press the hotkey (a double Shift by default), and it rewrites the text in the intended layout using your installed system layouts.
+LangSwitcher fixes text you typed with the wrong keyboard layout active. Type "ghbdtn" when you meant the Russian "привет", press Shift twice, and the text is replaced in place.
-It runs from the menu bar and offers builds for Apple silicon, Intel and universal Macs. It positions itself as an open alternative to Punto Switcher and Caramba Switcher.
+You do not have to select anything first. The default Greedy Line mode finds where the wrong-layout text starts on the current line and converts only that part. Last Word mode handles just the final word, and a third setting waits for a manual selection. Conversion follows physical key positions: each character goes back to the key that typed it, then comes out in the other layout. Punctuation stays as it was.
+
+LangSwitcher handles English, Russian, German, French and Spanish, picked up from the layouts in your Input Sources. Double Shift is the default hotkey, and you can record another. To swap the text it simulates Command-C and Command-V, which is why it needs the Accessibility permission. An optional log, off by default, keeps past conversions in a local SQLite database that you can export as JSON. The developer says the app has no network access and no analytics.
+
+Version 1.1.0 comes in Apple silicon, Intel and Universal builds and requires macOS 13. The Universal DMG is signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+Punto Switcher, from Yandex, switches the layout for you automatically and can expand abbreviations into longer text. LangSwitcher changes nothing until you press the hotkey.

-Lantern helps people in censored networks reach blocked websites and apps, routing traffic through its own network with protocols designed to resist blocking. It is available for desktop and mobile platforms from one codebase.
+Lantern gets you to websites and apps that your network or country blocks, by sending that traffic through its own servers over protocols built to resist censorship. When one method is blocked, the app switches to another on its own.
-macOS installers are linked from the README and attached to GitHub releases, with separate stable and beta channels. Lantern is a circumvention tool that relies on its operator's servers, so read its privacy policy to understand what it can see.
+By default Lantern uses Smart Routing: region-specific rules send blocked and unencrypted sites through the Lantern network, and everything else connects directly. Full Tunnel sends all traffic through Lantern instead, which is slower but hides from your ISP anything except the connection to Lantern. Split Tunneling, a separate setting, lets you pick apps or sites that skip the VPN, and the routing lists for regions such as Iran, China and Russia are public on GitHub.
+
+Private Server mode connects the app to a server you run on your own hardware or cloud account, and you can share its key with people you trust. The free version needs no account, but in most countries it has a daily data limit; the site says the cap is lifted entirely in places where people cannot pay for Pro, or cannot do so safely. Lantern Pro removes the limit and adds server selection, DNS-based ad blocking and use on up to five devices.

+On a Mac, Lantern installs a network system extension, which you approve once in System Settings the first time you connect. The download page lists macOS 10.15 or later, but the 10.0.5 app itself declares macOS 12 as its minimum. That DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Stable and beta builds are offered, alongside versions for Windows, Linux, Android and iOS. The developer, the nonprofit Brave New Software Project, says it keeps no logs of browsing or connection history.

-Lapce provides a graphical workspace for editing and navigating source projects. Language tooling and an integrated terminal help keep common development tasks close to the editor.
+Lapce opens a project folder and edits it with completion, diagnostics and code actions delivered over the Language Server Protocol, which the editor supports out of the box. Vim-style modal editing is built in too, and you can switch it off.
-The project publishes macOS releases and remains actively developed. Check its current feature set against the languages and extensions your workflow requires.
+Remote development lets you keep editing in the window on your Mac while the project stays on a remote machine. Each release ships proxy builds for macOS, Linux and Windows to go with it. A built-in terminal runs commands inside the workspace without leaving the editor.
+
+Plugins are WASI modules. Any language that compiles to WASI works for writing one, such as C, Rust or AssemblyScript.
+
+The editor is written in Rust. Its interface uses Floem, a GUI toolkit from the same team. Text lives in the rope structure from the Xi editor, and wgpu does the drawing.
+
+Lapce is still at version 0.4. The macOS download is a single DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+Visual Studio Code inspired Lapce's remote mode, and its extensions start life as TypeScript or JavaScript projects. Lapce plugins compile to WASI instead, so you can write them in Rust or C.

-It includes its own updater and can also be installed from the developer's Homebrew tap. Check the README for current signing status if macOS blocks the first launch.

+- A configurable hot corner opens it, and so do four- and five-finger trackpad gestures, which are marked experimental.
+- A command-line and terminal interface, switched on in Settings, lets you inspect and change the layout.
+- Right-clicking an app shows it in Finder, copies its path or passes it to an uninstall tool you configure.

+LaunchNext builds on LaunchNow and keeps its GPL-3.0 license. Version 2.4.2 is the first release signed with a Developer ID and notarized; it is a Universal app and requires macOS 26. The developer says the Apple membership behind the signing may not be renewed, and releases would then go back to unsigned builds. The app updates itself, and the developer's Homebrew tap has a cask.
+
+It runs full screen or in a compact floating window, with separate settings for each. Of the two rendering engines, Next Engine with Core Animation lets you drag apps straight into the Dock. Folders can page like Launchpad's or scroll vertically.

-LaunchNow brings back a grid of app icons for people who miss Launchpad on macOS Sequoia and later. It can run full screen in the classic style or as a smaller window, and lets you drag icons into folders, rearrange them, hide apps you never open and search across everything, including folder contents.
+LaunchNow puts your apps back in a paged grid of icons. It runs in the background and opens either as a classic full-screen Launchpad or in a window style, and you can switch between the two.
-Pages flip with the keyboard or a configurable four-finger trackpad gesture, and layouts can be exported and restored. The app runs in the background; releases are distributed as ZIP archives on GitHub.
+- Dragging one app onto another makes a folder, and apps move in and out of folders freely.
+- Holding Option locks the other icons in place while you build a folder.
+- Search covers every app, including those inside folders.
+- Hidden apps leave the grid without being deleted.

+Tab and Shift-Tab flip pages, the arrow keys select an app and Return launches it. A four-finger trackpad gesture opens the grid, and you can configure it. You can also set the icon size, the scroll sensitivity for turning pages and whether the frosted glass background is on. The interface comes in 13 languages and switches without a restart.
+
+Layouts export to a file and import again, which doubles as a backup. To have LaunchNow ready after startup, add it to Login Items in System Settings.

-Leader Key opens a configurable sequence of shortcuts after a trigger key. Instead of searching for an application name each time, you can build predictable combinations for your frequent actions.
+Leader Key waits for one trigger key, then reads the next few keys you press as a path to an action. Press the leader, then o and m, and Messages opens. Sequences nest into groups, so you can file shortcuts under letters that are easy to remember.
-The developer now focuses on a separate successor, Tuna. Leader Key remains available as its own free, MIT-licensed application.
+Each entry opens an app, a URL or a folder, or runs a shell command. You build the tree in the Config settings, and it is saved as config.json, which you can also edit by hand. Any key or combination works as the leader, such as F12 or Command-Space. A modifier key on its own does not.
+
+Other tools can drive it through a leaderkey:// URL scheme. They can reload the config, show or hide the window, or walk a key path with or without running the action at the end. Shell commands run in a non-interactive shell, so your PATH has to be exported in ~/.zshenv for zsh or ~/.bash_profile for bash.

-Lepton is a desktop client for keeping code snippets in GitHub Gists. After you sign in with a GitHub account, it lists your gists, groups them by language or custom tags, and lets you create, edit and search snippets with syntax highlighting, including Markdown and Jupyter notebook previews.
+Lepton keeps your code snippets as GitHub gists, or as GitLab personal snippets, and gives them a desktop editor. Sign in to GitHub with OAuth or a personal access token, and your gists appear grouped by language and by tags. A title and tags go in the gist description, written as `[title] description #tag1 #tag2`.
-Because everything is stored as ordinary gists, snippets stay available on GitHub and on any other machine where you run Lepton. Builds for Intel and Apple silicon Macs are published on the project's GitHub releases page.
+- Snippets can be public or secret, with no limit on their number or on tags.
+- Markdown and Jupyter notebook snippets are rendered.
+- Shift-Space opens search across file names, languages and other fields.
+- GitHub Enterprise and self-managed GitLab work, and a proxy can be set.
+
+Searching inside the code of every snippet needs the `snippet.downloadAll` option turned on before syncing. Without it, content search covers only snippets already downloaded, such as those you opened in the session.
+
+Lepton is an Electron app with no backend of its own. It talks to GitHub Gist directly, and the developer says it collects no user or usage data. Version 2.0.0 comes as separate DMG and ZIP downloads for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon build requires macOS 12; Homebrew installs it as the `lepton` cask.
+
+Settings live in a `.leptonrc` file in your home folder. It picks the theme, from Dracula and Solarized to Catppuccin, along with editor options, shortcuts and one of eight interface languages. The dashboard and an immersive mode toggle with Command-D and Command-I.

-LibreCAD focuses on two-dimensional CAD work. Draw and edit geometric entities, organize them into layers, and add measurements for plans or technical documentation.
+LibreCAD draws and edits 2D technical drawings. You place lines, circles, arcs, ellipses, curves and polylines with snapping, add dimensions, and organize the result in layers and blocks. Commands come from menus and toolbars, or you type them into a command line.
-It is a useful choice for drafting tasks that do not require a full 3D modeling environment. macOS installers are available from the project.
+It works with DXF files, and the libdxfrw library also lets it read DWG. ESRI Shapefiles import as native entities, with layers taken from the DBF data. The interface is translated into more than 30 languages.

+The same program converts drawings without opening the editor. `librecad dxf2pdf -a` fits a drawing onto a PDF page, other commands write PNG or SVG, and several inputs can go into one PDF. Converting DWG files needs a build compiled with DWG support.
+
+Version 2.2.1.6 has separate Mac DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. They carry only an ad-hoc signature, so macOS blocks the first launch with a warning that it could not verify the app. Open LibreCAD once, dismiss the dialog, then click Open Anyway under Privacy & Security in System Settings.
+
+AutoCAD, from Autodesk, covers 2D drafting and 3D modelling, adds AI-assisted tools and specialized toolsets, and is sold as a subscription. LibreCAD stays with 2D drafting under the GPLv2, with no trials, subscriptions or license fees. It descends from the community edition of QCAD.

-LibreOffice brings word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, and related document tools together. It works with OpenDocument files and supports many other common office formats.
+You write documents, build spreadsheets and prepare slide decks in LibreOffice's six modules. Writer handles text, Calc spreadsheets and Impress presentations. Draw covers diagrams and illustrations, Base databases, and Math formulas.
-It is useful for everyday office work on local files. Complex documents from another suite may need layout or feature checks when exchanged.
+Files load and save in the OpenDocument format by default (.odt, .ods, .odp). LibreOffice also opens Microsoft Office files such as .docx, .xlsx and .pptx, and it can save in Microsoft formats. Microsoft Office covers the same ground of word processing, spreadsheets and presentations. The difference is the default format: LibreOffice starts from OpenDocument.
+
+It runs on macOS 11 or newer with an Intel or Apple silicon processor. There is no universal app. Apple silicon and Intel each get their own disk image.
+
+The Document Foundation and contributors make LibreOffice, which is free to download and use. Its source code is under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.
+
+A few optional features rely on Java. On a Mac they need a full JDK, not just a JRE.

-LibreSprite offers a pixel art workspace with layers, a timeline, and palette controls. It can prepare animated sprites and export the frames needed by a game or other project.
+LibreSprite is for drawing pixel art sprites and animating them frame by frame. A sprite is built from layers and frames, the animation previews in real time, and onion skinning shows the neighbouring frames.
-The application is a maintained open-source continuation of an earlier sprite-editing codebase, with macOS installers available.
+- Several sprites can be open and edited at the same time.
+- Palettes come ready made, or you can build your own.
+- A tiled drawing mode helps with patterns and textures.
+- Pixel-precise tools include filled contour, polygon and a shading mode.
+
+A scripting API extends the editor. Version 1.2 added more script functions and example scripts, among them Voxel.js, which renders a sprite's layers as a 3D object and exports an STL file. The same release brought preliminary machine translations of the interface into eleven languages besides English, without right-to-left support. Themes for the interface are available from the project's resources repository. Release 1.3 offers separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, alongside builds for Windows and Linux.
+
+LibreSprite started as a fork of Aseprite, made at the last Aseprite commit covered by GPL version 2, and has been developed separately since. Aseprite's own site sells the program, with a trial version, and lists features such as RotSprite rotation, texture atlases and a command-line interface for asset pipelines. LibreSprite is free under GPL-2.0.

-Life Saver renders Conway's Game of Life as an abstract, artistic animation rather than a plain grid of cells. A range of colour schemes, presets, and adjustable settings lets it be tuned from lively to calm on the desktop.
+Life Saver plays Conway's Game of Life as a Mac screensaver. SpriteKit draws it as an abstract animation, and the screensaver's options sheet sets the color scheme and other settings.
-The macOS screensaver's latest release is version 1.2 from November 2021, distributed as a zip linked from the project README; the same engine also powers a separate Apple TV app. The code is released under MPL-2.0.
+- Color schemes come as presets, and the sheet selects the matching preset when your own colors equal one.
+- An option picks a random color preset each time the screensaver starts.
+- Size options run from XS to XL. Version 1.2 added two smaller ones and renamed the old default, M, to L.
+- An "extra" animation for dying cells, reworked in version 1.1.
+
+Version 1.1 reduced memory, CPU and energy use, partly by lowering the frame rate to 30 frames per second.
+
+The README links a ZIP of version 1.2. The screensaver inside is built for Intel processors only, requires macOS 10.14, and is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The 1.2 release page adds a second archive, built with Xcode 26, for anyone the first one fails for.
+
+Life Saver also comes as Life Saver TV, a separate Apple TV app on the App Store. The developer's forum carries devlogs and support, and the Xcode project builds both versions from the same repository under MPL-2.0.

-LimeChat is a straightforward IRC client that gathers several servers and their channels into a single window and leans on keyboard shortcuts for navigation. It is also the project Textual originally forked from.
+LimeChat puts every IRC server you connect to, along with its channels, in a single window, and you move between them mostly from the keyboard. Tab completes a nickname. Option-Space jumps to the next channel with unread messages, Command-1 through Command-0 pick one of the first ten channels on the current server, and Control-Return sends a notice.
-It is distributed free on the Mac App Store. Its last App Store update was in June 2020 and the repository has been quiet since 2021, so expect a dated client without newer IRCv3 features.
+Each server keeps its own connection settings:
+
+- SSL, with an option to verify the server's certificate.
+- SASL login once you set a nickname password. Saved passwords go into the macOS Keychain.
+- A SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy, or the system SOCKS setting.
+- Commands sent after login, channels joined automatically, and a main and a fallback text encoding.
+
+Themes control how the window looks. Each one pairs a CSS file for the chat log with a YAML file that sets fonts and colors for the input field, member list and server tree, plus an optional JavaScript file. Limelight is the default, and Deep Ocean and Spring Night come with it. You can add highlight keywords beyond your own nickname and set a hotkey that shows or hides LimeChat from any app. Transcripts can be saved to a folder in Documents, though logging is off by default.
+
+The free Mac App Store build needs macOS 10.13 or later. Its latest version, 2.47 from June 2020, fixed scrolling and added Option-Shift-Up and Option-Shift-Down for unread channels. The source is on GitHub under the GPL version 2. Its last commits, in 2021, added Libera Chat to the server list and adjusted SASL PLAIN login.
+
+Textual, another Mac IRC client, began in 2010 as a fork of LimeChat.

-LinearMouse lets you adjust how pointing devices behave on your Mac. It is useful when an external mouse needs different scrolling or pointer settings from the built-in trackpad.
+LinearMouse changes how a mouse or trackpad moves the pointer and scrolls, with separate settings for each device. A common use is keeping natural scrolling on the built-in trackpad while reversing it on an external mouse.
-The project supplies a macOS download and maintains its configuration interface and documentation upstream.
+- Scrolling can be reversed per device and adjusted in each direction.
+- Pointer speed and acceleration can be tuned, reset to the system defaults or switched off entirely.
+- Buttons and scroll actions can be remapped to keyboard shortcuts, media controls, Mission Control and gestures.
+- Profiles apply settings by device, by app and by display.
+
+The download is a DMG with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized; version 0.12.0 sets macOS 10.15 as its minimum. It is also available as the `linearmouse` Homebrew cask. Translations come from contributors, through pull requests or Crowdin. The code is MIT-licensed, and the project takes donations through GitHub Sponsors, Open Collective and Ko-fi.

-Linked gives each day its own page for thoughts, to-dos and notes, with keyboard shortcuts for moving between days and a search across all entries. Text styles, lists, to-dos and code blocks are supported, in light or dark mode.
+Linked keeps a journal with one page per day, and you write whatever the day needs: thoughts, a to-do list, a block of code. A page has no length limit. Press Command-N or Command-P to step to the next or previous day, add Shift to jump a week, and press Command-period to come back to today.
-Entries are saved as files in your Documents folder rather than a hosted service. The latest release, 1.5.2, dates from June 2023, and planned features such as sync have not shipped.
+- The editor handles text styles, lists, to-do items and fenced code blocks. Typing a slash opens a menu of commands.
+- Command-K opens a full-text search across every day you have written.
+- Each day is saved as a JSON file, sorted into one folder per year under `~/Documents/linked`. You can choose a different data folder in settings.
+- The interface is translated into many languages and switches between dark and light themes.
+
+To leave a code block, press Command-Return, the down arrow, or Return three times. The developer says the app needs no internet connection and that your data is stored locally. Linked checks for updates daily by default, or weekly if you change it in settings, and asks before downloading one.

-LiteEdit opens a folder with a file tree, tabs, line numbers and syntax highlighting, and remembers the session so the same files return on the next launch. Quick open and multi-cursor renaming cover the most common jobs of a secondary editor.
+LiteEdit opens a project folder in a sidebar tree so you can read through code and make small changes without starting a full IDE. Press Command-P to jump to a file by name, or Command-G to go to a line.
-It is intended to sit beside a full IDE for reading code and small changes, and leaves out extensions, language servers, a terminal and Git tools on purpose. The project lists macOS 13 or later.
+- Syntax highlighting covers more than 20 languages, among them Swift, Python, Rust, Go, JSON and YAML.
+- Files open in tabs, with line numbers and a status bar that shows the cursor position and the detected language.
+- Find and Replace accepts regular expressions and reports how many matches it found.
+- Command-Shift-L selects all occurrences at once and edits them with multiple cursors, which helps when renaming something within one file.
+- Option-Up and Option-Down move the current line, and Command-Shift-K deletes it.
+
+When you quit, LiteEdit keeps the open folder, tabs, cursor positions and window state, and brings them back on the next launch. Right-click an item in the sidebar to reveal it in Finder.
+
+The project draws a firm line around its scope. There are no extensions, no language server support, no built-in terminal and no Git interface, and the README sends you to VS Code, Xcode or Sublime Text for those. The app is written in Swift on AppKit, and the release DMG is well under 1 MB.
+
+LiteEdit needs macOS 13 or later, and the release build runs on Apple silicon only. It is not signed with a Developer ID or notarized, so macOS may call it damaged on first launch until you clear the quarantine flag with the `xattr` command from the README. Installing from the project's Homebrew tap clears that flag for you.

-Lite XL focuses on quick text and code editing without a large application shell. Lua plugins provide additional languages, behaviors, and editing tools.
+Lite XL edits code inside a project folder: you open a directory, browse it in the file tree and jump between files with a fuzzy finder. Only a thin C layer talks to the operating system. Everything else is Lua, so you can script almost any part of the editor. It is derived from rxi's lite and still runs most lite plugins and all of its color themes.
-It is a useful choice for a small, customizable editor setup. The release page includes macOS disk images with and without bundled add-ons.
+- Command-Shift-P opens a command palette with fuzzy matching, and Command-P finds a file in the project.
+- Multiple cursors, autocomplete and split panes work out of the box.
+- Find and replace understands regular expressions and case-sensitive matching.
+- Project search lists every match across files in its own tab. It cannot replace across files.
+- Open files and folders come back when you restart the editor.
+
+Settings live in a Lua user module, `init.lua`, which the editor reloads as soon as you save it. Key bindings go in the same file. A project can carry its own module too, handy for custom build commands or plugins that only one codebase needs.
+
+Every release ships twice. The base build includes syntax highlighting for nine languages, among them C, Python and Markdown. The addons build adds 112 language plugins, a settings window and dozens of color themes. Both come as Universal, Intel and Apple silicon disk images and need OS X 10.11 or later. The app is ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so macOS asks you to approve it on first launch.

-LiveWallpaper turns video files into a moving desktop background. Drop MP4 or MOV clips into the folder the app opens for you and pick one to loop behind your windows; the lock screen shows a still image rather than the video.
+LiveWallpaper plays a video file as your desktop background, behind your windows. Click the Open in Finder button in the app, drop MP4 or MOV clips into the folder it opens, then choose one. A file name can contain only one dot, the one before the extension.
-Releases are published on GitHub and through the author's Homebrew tap. The builds are not notarized, so the project documents removing the quarantine attribute before the first launch. The project states a macOS 14 minimum.
+- Each display keeps its own wallpaper configuration.
+- Videos can fill, fit or stretch the screen, at resolutions up to 4K.
+- Volume is set per wallpaper, and you can mute it completely.
+- A random wallpaper can be chosen at startup or when you unlock the screen, and a rotation setting cycles through your wallpapers.
+- A vignette effect can be switched on or off.
+
+Playback pauses while the screen is locked. The lock screen shows a still image, because LiveWallpaper does not play video there. The developer says the app uses under 20 MB of memory and about 1% of the CPU.
+
+The current release, V2.3, requires macOS 14.6 or later. Its DMG on GitHub holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, and the developer's Homebrew tap also installs LiveWallpaper as a cask. The V2.3 app is not notarized, so the README tells you to remove the quarantine attribute with `xattr` before the first launch.
+
+Wallpaper Engine is a paid Windows app that animates your own images as well as videos and web pages, and it draws on hundreds of thousands of shared wallpapers from the Steam Workshop. LiveWallpaper plays only the video files you give it, on the Mac.

-LMMS brings a beat sequencer, piano roll, synthesizers, and a mixer into one music-making workspace. Build a song by arranging patterns and automating parameters.
+LMMS builds songs out of patterns. You program a beat in the Pattern Editor, play or draw a melody in the Piano Roll, and then lay patterns, samples and automation out along the Song Editor's timeline. Notes can come from a MIDI keyboard or from the computer keyboard.
-It is particularly useful for composing with software instruments and samples. macOS packages are available on the project's release page.
+- 16 built-in synthesizers, among them emulations of the Roland TB-303, the Commodore 64 SID chip, the NES and Game Boy, and the Yamaha OPL2, plus an embedded ZynAddSubFX.
+- Sampled instruments in SoundFont 2, Giga (GIG) and GUS patch formats.
+- A mixer with unlimited channels and any number of effects on each, with a compressor, delay, reverb, equalizers and a spectrum analyzer built in.
+- Track-based automation of parameters, which controllers such as an LFO can also drive.
+- Import and export of MIDI files, and import of Hydrogen projects.
+
+LADSPA effects can be dropped in. VST effect plug-ins are supported on Linux and Windows only, and in 1.2.2 Windows VST plug-ins (.dll files) do not work on the Mac.
+
+The last stable version, 1.2.2 from 2020, comes only as Intel builds, one for macOS 10.13 and another for 10.14 or later. Version 1.3.0-alpha.2, from September 2026, adds an Apple silicon build for macOS 11 or later, along with a strum tool, pitch bending inside the Piano Roll, microtonal tunings and detachable windows. Projects saved in the alpha cannot be reopened in older versions. Before the first launch, the download page has you run a Terminal command that removes the quarantine flag from LMMS.app.
+
+GarageBand is aimed at recording: you plug in a guitar or microphone, play through modeled amps, and let a virtual session drummer play along. LMMS centres on sequencing synthesizers and samples, and it also runs on Linux and Windows.

-Point Localization Editor at a project folder and it gathers the Localizable.strings files for each language into one table, keyed by string identifier. Gaps show up as empty cells, and edits are written straight back to the matching strings file.
+Pick a folder from the File menu, and Localization Editor collects the .strings files under it into one table. Each language from an .lproj folder becomes a column, each key a row, so an untranslated string shows up as an empty cell. When you type in a cell, the app saves the change into that language's file.
-The last release, 2.9.2, came out in December 2023. Builds are signed only with a development certificate, so the first launch needs the Open command from the Finder context menu.
+You can open the root of an Xcode project instead of the localization folder, at the cost of a slower scan. The app ignores Pods, Carthage, build and framework folders. If the project has several strings tables, a toolbar menu switches between them.
+
+Around the table:
+
+- a Missing filter that keeps only keys lacking a translation in at least one language
+- a search field that matches both keys and translated text
+- a sheet for adding a key with an optional comment
+- deletion of a key from every language at once
+- Tab and Shift-Tab to step between translations
+
+It reads only .strings files, so the newer .xcstrings String Catalogs from Xcode are out of reach.
+
+Version 2.9.2 from December 2023 is the latest release. It runs on Intel and Apple silicon Macs with macOS 10.14.6 or later. The zip is signed only with a development certificate and is not notarized, so double-clicking the app the first time brings up a Gatekeeper warning instead of opening it. For the same reason Homebrew disabled the localizationeditor cask in September 2026, and the brew command in the README no longer installs it.

-LocalSend transfers files and text between devices on a local network. Its clients cover macOS and several other desktop and mobile platforms.
+LocalSend sends files and text between devices on the same local network. Open it on both devices, choose files, photos or a piece of text, and tap the receiving device in the list of nearby ones. The transfer goes straight from one device to the other. Received files land in Downloads unless you pick another folder.
-Both devices need to be reachable on the same network, and firewall rules can affect discovery. It is a practical option for moving files between different operating systems.
+Apple describes AirDrop as a way to send items to nearby Apple devices. LocalSend runs on macOS, Windows, Linux, Android and iOS, so a Mac can swap files with an Android phone or a Windows PC. Transfers are encrypted over HTTPS by default, and you can switch encryption off on both devices. PIN verification adds a further check. No internet connection, account or server is involved, and the developers say the app carries no ads or trackers.
+
+The two devices have to reach each other. If sending or receiving fails, allow incoming TCP and UDP on port 53317 in the firewall. AP isolation on the router must also be off. It usually is, but some routers enable it, especially on guest networks.
+
+The Mac download is a universal DMG for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and the app is also in the Mac App Store. macOS 12 Monterey is the minimum; 1.18.2 was the last release for macOS 11. The DMG build does not update itself, so the developers recommend an app store or a package manager. A separate command-line client, built on the same protocol, runs on Apple silicon and Intel Macs.

-LockIME restores a chosen keyboard input source when another application or action changes it. Rules can apply globally or only when a particular app or supported website is active.
+LockIME keeps your keyboard on the input source you choose. When you or another app changes it, LockIME switches straight back. The lock can cover the whole Mac, single apps or websites open in your browser.
-A rule can also switch once instead of continuously locking. The project offers separate Apple Silicon and Intel downloads and explains the optional browser integration.
+A rule for an app or a website either locks a source or switches to it once when that app or page comes to the front, after which you can change it freely. The global default can lock, switch once, or do nothing and leave the work to your per-app and per-website rules.
+
+- Programs started from a bare executable, such as the java process behind Minecraft, can have rules while they run.
+- Website rules match a domain with its subdomains, an exact domain, a keyword or a regular expression, in a priority order you set by dragging.
+- Global shortcuts turn LockIME on and off and cycle through input sources.
+- A log keeps the last 24 hours of switches, with the reason for each.
+- Rules export to a `.lockime` file, and importing shows the additions, conflicts and removals before applying them.
+- A `lockime://` URL scheme, off by default, lets scripts and Shortcuts control the app.
+
+Some programs, games among them, keep forcing their own input source. LockIME spots the back-and-forth, pauses for a moment and notes it in the log. An Ignore or Switch to rule for that program settles it.
+
+Core locking needs no system permissions. Website rules depend on an optional enhanced mode, which requires Accessibility access.
+
+LockIME requires macOS 14 or later. Apple silicon and Intel Macs get separate DMGs of under 3 MB, and both DMGs of version 1.7.1 are notarized. The app updates itself through Sparkle, and its interface switches between nine languages without a restart.

-Lockpaw places a cover over all connected displays when you press its shortcut, without logging out or sleeping the Mac, so long-running jobs continue in the background. You unlock with the same shortcut, Touch ID, or your account password.
+Lockpaw covers every display when you press Command-Shift-L, and the Mac keeps running underneath without sleeping or disconnecting its displays. Builds, downloads, SSH sessions and AI coding agents carry on. Press the shortcut again or rest a finger on Touch ID to uncover it. A password field on the cover is the fallback, and you can record your own shortcut.
-It is aimed at people who leave coding agents and terminal sessions running: the covered screen can light up when a supported agent asks for attention, and alerts can optionally be forwarded to a phone. Keeping the Mac awake with the lid closed is an opt-in feature that relies on a helper you approve separately.
+- Displays you plug in while it is locked get covered as well.
+- Hooks for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI and Aider make the cover glow when an agent stops for permission or finishes, and a notification names the agent and project. The bundled `lockpaw` command installs those hooks, and any other tool can call `lockpaw ping`.
+- Agent pings can be forwarded to ntfy, Pushover or a webhook if you turn that on.
+- Shortcuts and Spotlight get a Lock Screen action. There is deliberately no unlock action.
+- The cover can show each display's wallpaper, or fade to black after a while.
+
+Keeping agents running with the lid closed is opt-in. It adds a helper you approve once, which turns off sleep while the screen is covered. Unlocking restores normal sleep, and so does the battery dropping to 20% or the Mac getting hot.
+
+Someone who means to get in still can. `pkill Lockpaw` ends it, and synthetic input from AppleScript or the Accessibility API is not blocked, so Control-Command-Q remains the real lock. The developer says Lockpaw collects no analytics and needs no account.
+
+Lockpaw requires macOS 14 or later and the Accessibility permission. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.

-Logseq organizes information into blocks that can be linked and revisited from different contexts. Journals and references help turn everyday notes into a connected knowledge base.
+Logseq keeps your notes as an outline of blocks that link to each other. You write on a daily journal page, reference any page or block by typing its name in `[[ ]]`, and every page collects the places that mention it under Linked References.
-It suits an outline-first workflow. Check the release notes when moving between major storage or application versions.
+Version 2, the current beta, stores each graph in a database, and much of the app now runs on tags. Tag a block `#Person` and give the tag properties such as a birthday; every block with that tag shows those fields and can be listed in a table view.
+
+- Tasks, journal pages and flashcards are tags too, so you can add your own properties to them.
+- Dates typed as `[[Next Friday]]` or with the date picker create the matching journal page.
+- Queries, built with a query builder or typed by hand, show their results as a view inside a page.
+- Plugins from the in-app marketplace extend the editor, and an optional MCP server lets AI clients connect to a graph.
+
+The beta warns that data loss is possible. On the desktop it keeps the last 12 automatic backups in a `backups` folder inside the graph, and graphs export as SQLite files. The importer converts Markdown graphs from the older 0.10 releases, which remain on GitHub. Desktop builds come as separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel.
+
+Syncing graphs between devices through Logseq Sync is a paid feature, and it can also be self-hosted. Obsidian also links notes with backlinks, but it stores them as plain Markdown files in a local folder, while Logseq 2 keeps each graph in a database. Logseq's code is AGPL-licensed.

-Hold a trigger key to reveal a radial menu, then steer toward the window layout you want. Loop provides a visual way to move and resize windows without memorizing a separate shortcut for every position.
+Loop moves and resizes windows when you hold a trigger key and push the pointer in a direction. A radial menu appears around the cursor, and a preview shows where the window will land before you let go.
-Customize the menu colors and behavior to suit your desktop. The upstream project provides a downloadable macOS application and documents its current system requirements.
+- Pressing another key with the trigger key runs an action from the keyboard: halves, quarters, thirds, maximize, center or a jump to the next screen.
+- Cycles put several layouts on one shortcut, so repeated presses step through them.
+- Stash tucks a window against the screen edge until you hover there or press its key.
+- The radial menu's width, shape and color are adjustable, and you can turn it off. The preview has its own padding, corner radius and border settings.
+- A `loop://` URL scheme lets shell scripts and AppleScript call the same actions.
+
+Caps Lock can serve as the trigger: remap it to Control in System Settings, then choose Right Control in Loop.
+
+Magnet is sold through the Mac App Store and snaps windows when you drag them to screen edges and corners, use a shortcut or pick from its menu. Loop is free, and its gesture works by direction from wherever the pointer is.
+

-LosslessCut is built around selecting the portions of a recording you want to keep. For compatible formats it can cut or combine segments without a full re-encode.
+LosslessCut cuts the parts you want out of a video or audio file and saves them without re-encoding, so an export takes seconds and the picture keeps its original quality. Open a recording, mark segments on the timeline, and export each one as its own file or join them into one.
-This makes it useful for shortening screen recordings or camera footage quickly. Exact cut behavior depends on the source format and keyframes.
+Cuts can only start on a keyframe. The export therefore begins at the keyframe before your cut point, anywhere from a fraction of a second to several seconds early, depending on how the file was encoded. An experimental smart cut mode can cut between keyframes, though it fails on many files.
+
+- Segments can be split by length, file size or count, or created from detected scene changes, black frames and silence.
+- Tracks can be added, removed or extracted, for example to drop an audio language or attach a subtitle file.
+- Remuxing moves a file to another container, such as MKV to MP4, without touching the streams.
+- Files from the same camera with matching codec settings merge losslessly.
+- Segment lists import from chapters, CSV, EDL and DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro XML, and export as CSV, SRT subtitles or YouTube chapter timestamps.
+
+Files the built-in player cannot show are played through FFmpeg, and the export still comes from the original data. LosslessCut also shows the FFmpeg commands it ran, so you can repeat them in Terminal, and it has a basic command-line interface and HTTP API.
+
+The DMGs on GitHub are separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel. The PKG in the same release does not work.

-Loupe reads the accessibility tree of whatever app is under the pointer and shows each element's role and hierarchy as you hover. Click an element, write the change you want in plain language, and copy the result as structured text with element paths and search hints.
+When you ask a coding agent to change a Mac app's interface, a screenshot leaves it guessing which button you mean. Loupe lets you point at the control itself. Hover over any element in a running app and Loupe highlights it with its accessibility details, live. Click it, type the change you want in plain English, then copy the lot as structured text to paste into Claude Code, Cursor or Codex.
-The output is meant to be pasted into tools such as Claude Code, Cursor or Codex so they can locate the exact control while building a Mac app, instead of guessing from a screenshot. It needs macOS 14 and Accessibility permission; disk images are on GitHub releases.
+- The copied text carries each element's role, identifier, path in the accessibility tree and a regex search pattern. The path helps an agent pick the right one among similar controls.
+- You can annotate several elements first and copy them in one batch.
+- It reads native, Electron and Catalyst apps alike, as long as they expose accessibility data.
+- A floating toolbar shrinks to a small icon while you are not using it.
+
+Loupe needs macOS 14 and the Accessibility permission. It asks for that on first launch and starts on its own once you grant it. The download is a DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. From version 1.2.1 it updates itself, and the Check for Updates command sits in both the menu bar icon and the toolbar's right-click menu. It is free under the MIT license, and you can also build it from source in Xcode.
+
+The idea comes from Agentation, a hover, annotate and copy tool for web development. Loupe carries that workflow over to Mac apps and is itself written in SwiftUI.

-LuLu is an outbound firewall for macOS. It alerts you to network connections from programs and lets you create rules to allow or block them.
+LuLu stops at every new outgoing network connection on your Mac and asks whether to allow it. The alert names the program and the address it is trying to reach. Allow or block, and a rule is saved for that program.
-Start with the upstream installation and configuration guide, then review rules as your apps change. This entry links to the Objective-See project and its official releases.
+The alert can show more before you decide. It shows the program's code signing details and its process hierarchy, and a button opens the file's results on VirusTotal. Expanding the alert gives finer rules: limit one to the current destination instead of the whole program, or make it last only for the process's lifetime or a set number of hours and minutes.
+
+At setup LuLu offers to allow Apple programs and software already installed without alerting you. Those rules, your own and its default system rules all appear in a Rules window, where you can filter, edit or add rules by hand, with a regular expression for the remote address if needed. Signed programs are matched by their code signing identifier, so a rule survives when the app moves or updates. The status bar menu also opens Netiquette, Objective-See's network monitor, packaged inside LuLu.
+
+Installation needs your approval of LuLu's system extension and network filter in System Settings. LuLu requires macOS 10.15 or later. Objective-See recommends the latest macOS and at least 15.3 on Sequoia, because of networking bugs in Apple's framework. The DMG and the Universal app inside are Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+Little Snitch also alerts when an app wants to connect and lets you allow or deny it. It is paid; without a license key it runs in a three-hour demo mode that can be restarted, and its Network Monitor expires after 30 days. LuLu is free under GPL-3.0 from Objective-See.

-LumaRing is a small ring-shaped switcher for moving between apps, individual windows and browser tabs, and for running app shortcuts. It is written natively in Swift, and the README describes the download as about 2.9 MB. Releases are published on GitHub, and the README also lists a Homebrew cask from a third-party tap.
+Press Option-Tab and LumaRing opens a ring of your running apps; point at one and release to switch to it. Hover over an app and an outer arc shows its windows, or its tabs in Chrome and Edge, with a preview before you switch. Icons carry a count when an app has several windows or tabs.
-It requires macOS 14 or later and ships builds for both Apple silicon and Intel. The app is not notarized: it is signed with a local certificate, so macOS blocks the first launch until you allow it under System Settings > Privacy & Security.
+- From the keyboard, Tab and Shift-Tab move around the ring, Return picks the selection and Escape closes the ring without switching.
+- A window or tab can be closed from the ring with its × button, and dragging an app's icon out of the ring quits that app.
+- Each app can have its own ring of named shortcut actions, set up in Settings. Double-tap the left Option key with the ring open to move between that ring and the app ring.
+- Holding Option shows a ring of favorite apps.
+- A three- or four-finger trackpad tap can open the ring. The developer calls this gesture experimental and notes that it uses a private macOS multitouch interface.
+
+LumaRing needs macOS 14 or later, and the DMG, about 3 MB, holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. It is self-signed and not notarized, so the first launch has to be allowed under Privacy & Security. Switching needs Accessibility access, window previews need Screen Recording and browser tabs need Automation permission. Updates come through Sparkle, and the README also lists a Homebrew cask in the developer's own tap.
+
+The ring uses Liquid Glass on macOS 26 and a frosted material on older systems; on macOS 26 you can also pick Regular or Clear Liquid Glass from the menu bar menu. Its interface comes in English and Simplified Chinese.

-Lunar brings external-display controls into macOS, including hardware brightness on compatible DDC/CI monitors. It also offers adaptive behavior and shortcuts for multi-monitor setups.
+Lunar makes your Mac's brightness and volume keys work on external monitors. On a monitor that supports DDC/CI, it changes the panel's real backlight, contrast and volume through the cable. Monitors that refuse those commands can still be dimmed by adjusting the colour output instead.
-The published source uses the MIT license, while the official app offers paid features. Check the feature comparison and monitor compatibility before choosing a download or purchase.
+The free version covers key control, hotkeys that respect a minimum and maximum per monitor, dimming below 0% for late nights, input switching from a dropdown or hotkeys, and a command-line tool. It has no time limit, but its manual mode allows 100 adjustments a day. Other features need Lunar Pro, which has a 14-day trial:
+
+- Sync Mode copies the adaptive brightness of a MacBook or iMac's built-in sensor to every external monitor.
+- Sensor and Location modes adapt brightness from an external light sensor or from the sun's position.
+- XDR Brightness unlocks the full brightness of XDR displays.
+- BlackOut switches off chosen screens while USB-C charging, monitor audio and the monitor's USB hub keep working.
+
+Lunar leaves the built-in display's own adaptive brightness alone and works alongside Night Shift and True Tone. The developer lists HDMI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, VGA and DVI as tested, plus adapters that pass DDC messages through.
+
+The Pro code in the repository is encrypted, so the app cannot be built from this source. The release DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, which requires macOS 12 or later.

-LyricGlow follows the track playing in the Spotify or Apple Music desktop app and shows time-synced lyrics in the menu bar or a floating window, highlighting each word karaoke-style. Lines can also be shown with a translation into another language.
+Play a song in the Spotify or Apple Music desktop app and LyricGlow shows its lyrics in time with the music, lighting up each word as it is sung. The current line also appears in the menu bar beside the clock, which keeps it visible with the window closed. Command-L shows or hides the window from any app.
-It detects playback locally through Automation permissions but needs an internet connection to fetch lyrics and translations, which are then cached. Releases include separate Apple silicon and Intel disk images.
+- A three-line view shows the previous, current and next line, and clicking a line jumps playback to that point.
+- A full-lyrics view scrolls along with the song until you scroll it yourself.
+- Floating Lyrics shrinks the window to one large line on the desktop that clicks pass through, and it stays above full-screen apps.
+- Each line can carry a translation into one of 43 languages, with right-to-left text for Arabic, Persian and Hebrew.
+- Album art, an artist biography and artist images fill the rest of the window. Each section can be hidden in settings.
+
+Lyrics come from LRCLIB. Only time-synced lyrics are shown, so a track LRCLIB has no synced version of gets a not-found message. Lines are translated by Google Translate, and Lingva Translate steps in when Google fails. All of this needs an internet connection; lyrics, artwork and translations are cached on disk for seven days and stay available offline. The developer says the app has no analytics or tracking and needs no account.
+
+Track detection runs through AppleScript, which is why macOS prompts on first launch to let LyricGlow control Spotify or Music under Automation. It runs from the menu bar without a Dock icon, is built with Electron and requires macOS 11 or later. Each release has separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, and in version 0.8.0 the app in both is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The developer's Homebrew tap carries it as a cask.

-LyricsX follows the track playing in supported music players, searches several lyrics sources automatically, and displays timed lyrics on the desktop or in the menu bar with adjustable font, color and position. Double-clicking a line seeks to that part of the song, and lyrics can be imported or exported by drag and drop.
+LyricsX watches the song playing in your music player, looks up timed lyrics for it and shows the current line on the desktop or in the menu bar. You start a track as usual, and the words follow along without a search on your part.
-It is available from GitHub releases, Homebrew and the Mac App Store. The latest GitHub release, 1.6.3, dates from April 2022, so player and source compatibility may lag behind current versions.
+- Lyrics are fetched automatically from several online lyrics sources, listed in the LyricsKit project.
+- The desktop overlay takes your choice of font, color and position.
+- Double-clicking a line jumps playback to that point in the song.
+- If the timing drifts, you correct the offset from the status menu.
+- Dragging a file in or out imports or exports lyrics.
+- The app can open and quit together with your music player.
+
+Supported players are listed in the companion MusicPlayer project. For Chinese songs, LyricsX converts between Traditional and Simplified characters on its own.
+
+Lyrics are saved in LRCX, a format of the developer's that adds per-word timing and translations to plain LRC. Ordinary LRC editors still work on these files, though there is no official LRCX editor yet.
+
+Installation works through Homebrew, the Mac App Store or a ZIP on GitHub. That download, version 1.6.3 from April 2022, is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, needs macOS 10.11 or later and is Developer ID-signed and notarized.

-Mac Cache Cleaner finds the cache folders that macOS apps create and removes the ones it knows about. The cache locations are listed in `Source.json`, which you can edit to add your own. It suits people who want to free disk space from application caches without a full cleaner suite.
+Mac Cache Cleaner measures the cache folders of a fixed set of tools and lists the ones that hold anything, largest first, with the space each takes up. You clear an entry and all of its folders go at once.
-The zip contains an Intel (x86_64) build that declares macOS 10.13 or later. The app is signed with a developer certificate but is not notarized, so macOS must be allowed to open it in System Settings the first time. The project has not been updated since 2020.
+Those entries come from `Source.json`, a list in the GitHub repository that the app downloads when it runs. Each definition has a name, a description and the folders to measure, and most also link a homepage. The list covers CocoaPods, Carthage, Homebrew, npm, Yarn, Xcode Derived Data, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. The README points to `Source.json` as the place to add definitions for other tools.
+
+The download is a ZIP with an Intel-only (x86_64) app, version 1.2, that declares macOS 10.13 or later. Apple silicon Macs run it through Rosetta 2. It is signed with a Mac Developer certificate and Gatekeeper rejects it, so you have to allow it under Privacy & Security the first time.
+
+Clearing deletes the folders outright. They do not go to the Trash, so there is no undo. The Google Chrome entry includes `~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome`, which Chromium's documentation describes as the folder holding Chrome's profile data: history, bookmarks and cookies. The Homebrew entry takes Homebrew's log folder along with its cache.

-Mac Classic Player borrows the plain, utilitarian layout of the Windows player Media Player Classic. Files open by drag and drop or a shortcut, queue into a looping playlist, and almost everything is reachable from the keyboard: seeking, volume, number keys that jump to a percentage of the track, a metadata overlay and a shortcut cheat sheet. Volume and window size are remembered between launches.
+Mac Classic Player starts playing a video or audio file as soon as you drag it onto the window or pick it with the O key. There is no library to import first. The controls follow Media Player Classic, and almost every one of them has a single key:
-It plays MOV, MP4 and WebM video and common audio formats such as MP3, M4A and WAV. The GitHub releases provide an Apple silicon DMG.
+- Space plays and pauses, as does a click anywhere in the window. S stops and returns to the beginning.
+- The left and right arrows seek five seconds, and the number keys 0 to 9 jump to points from 0% to 90% of the track.
+- The up and down arrows set the volume, M mutes and F switches to full screen.
+- A and D step back and forward through the playlist, which loops.
+- I overlays the current track's tags (title, artist, album, year), and ? brings up the full list of shortcuts.
+
+It plays MOV, MP4 and WebM video and MP3, M4A and WAV audio. Volume and window size come back as you left them at the last quit.
+
+The developer says the app has no analytics, crash reporting or accounts. Two requests do leave the Mac. When an audio file has artist or album tags, those two fields go to Apple's iTunes Search API to fetch cover art, and no setting turns that off. Update checks download a small file from the GitHub releases page.
+
+The release is a DMG for Apple silicon Macs running macOS 11 or later, built with Tauri. It is not signed with a Developer ID and not notarized.
+
+PotPlayer, from Kakao, is a Windows player with hardware decoding through DXVA, CUDA and QuickSync, 3D output modes and support for many subtitle formats. Mac Classic Player runs on the Mac and sticks to six file types.

-Mac Mouse Fix gives conventional mice extra navigation controls, including button actions, smooth scrolling, and gesture-like shortcuts. It is useful when you want familiar macOS navigation without switching to a trackpad.
+Mac Mouse Fix maps the buttons and wheel of a third-party mouse to the gestures of an Apple trackpad. You hold a side button and drag or scroll, and macOS reacts as if you had swiped or pinched with several fingers.
-The current app is distributed commercially. Its published source uses a custom license with conditions on redistributing derived executables, so OpenMacApps labels it source available. Follow the official website for trial, purchase, and compatibility details.
+- Holding button 4 and dragging opens Mission Control, switches desktops or shows App Exposé, depending on the direction.
+- Holding button 5 and scrolling zooms in apps such as Safari and Preview; dragging sideways goes back or forward a page.
+- Clicking button 4 looks up a word or opens Quick Look, and clicking button 5 runs Smart Zoom.
+- Any click, double click or click-and-drag can send a keyboard shortcut, including brightness, volume and media keys.
+
+Scrolling has three smoothness levels. High adds momentum and a bounce at the end of a page, Regular uses short animations, and Off keeps the system behaviour but moves a fixed number of lines per wheel step. The mouse's scroll direction can be set separately from the trackpad's, and holding a modifier key gives precise scrolling or zoom.
+
+The full gesture set needs a mouse with five buttons. Some mice made for vendor drivers such as Logitech Options do not expose all their buttons, and the Apple Magic Mouse is not supported. A double-click action on a button delays that button's single click slightly.
+
+Version 3.1.0 supports macOS 10.15 Catalina or later; Mac Mouse Fix 2 covers macOS 10.11 and stays free. Version 3 has a 30-day trial counted only on days you use it, then a one-time purchase with no subscription. The GitHub ZIP holds a Universal app, notarized. The source is published under the developer's own license, which limits selling derived builds.

-Maccy keeps a searchable history of copied items so you can bring an earlier clip back without hunting through documents. Its compact interface works well with keyboard shortcuts.
+Maccy records what you copy, apart from copy types it ignores by default, and keeps it in a list in the menu bar. Press Shift-Command-C, type a few letters to filter the history, and press Return to put the chosen item back on the clipboard.
-Pin frequently used items and configure exclusions for apps whose clipboard contents should not be saved. Review these settings before using any clipboard manager with sensitive information.
+- Option-Return pastes the item straight into the frontmost app, and adding Shift pastes it without formatting. Automatic pasting needs the Accessibility permission.
+- Pinned items stay at the top of the list with their own keyboard shortcut.
+- You can delete items one at a time or clear the whole unpinned history.
+- Option-clicking the menu bar icon pauses recording, and Option-Shift-click skips only the next copy.
+
+By default Maccy skips clipboard types that apps mark as concealed, transient or auto-generated, which password managers use. You can add more types in settings, for example to ignore copies arriving through Universal Clipboard. The developer says the history is stored on the Mac.
+
+Paste also keeps a searchable clipboard history. It adds pinboards for reusable clips and syncs across Mac, iPhone and iPad, sold as a subscription or a lifetime plan. Maccy keeps a plain list behind a hotkey, stored locally.
+
+Maccy requires macOS 14 or later. The GitHub release is a ZIP containing a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. That build is free under the MIT license, and the same app is sold on the Mac App Store. Look-alike websites distribute malware under Maccy's name. Its only official site is maccy.app.

-MacDown shows Markdown source on one side and a rendered preview on the other, updating as you type. It offers editor themes, preview styles, code highlighting and options for Markdown extensions such as tables and fenced code.
+MacDown puts your Markdown source and its rendered preview side by side, and the preview redraws as you type. Rendering goes through the Hoedown library. The Markdown and Rendering preference panes switch each extension on or off, so you decide which non-standard syntax a document can use. Turn on tables, fenced code blocks, strikethrough, autolinks and task lists and the output comes close to GitHub Flavored Markdown.
-The latest release dates from 2020 and development has stalled since, so newer macOS versions may expose rough edges. Third-party components carry their own notices in the repository's LICENSE directory.
+- Fenced code blocks with a language identifier get syntax highlighting from Prism.
+- The preview renders TeX-style math, Graphviz graphs and Jekyll front matter.
+- Dropping an image into the editor inserts image syntax pointing at its local path.
+- An option completes matching characters as you type, and auto-completion can be turned off.
+- Documents export to HTML or PDF, and Copy HTML puts the rendered markup on the clipboard.
+
+The developer started MacDown after Mou's author said he could not keep developing that editor, and it copies much of Mou's interface and behaviour. Many bundled editor themes and preview styles, Tomorrow, Writer, Clearness and GitHub among them, come from Mou.
+
+The last stable release, 0.7.3, dates from January 2020, and a 0.8.0 pre-release followed a month later. That stable build needs OS X 10.8 or later and contains Intel code only, so Apple silicon Macs need Rosetta 2. It also has no code signature, because the developer holds no Apple developer certificate, so the first launch has to be approved in macOS security settings.
+
+Typora drops the separate preview pane and hides the markup symbols, showing the text formatted where you type it. It is paid after a 15-day trial. MacDown keeps the raw Markdown in view beside the preview and is free under the MIT license.

-MacGesture recognises mouse gestures drawn while holding the right button and turns them into keyboard shortcuts. Gestures are written as short strings of directions, clicks and wheel movements, can use wildcards, and each rule can be limited to or excluded from particular apps by bundle identifier.
+MacGesture lets you hold the right mouse button, draw a stroke and have the Mac press a keyboard shortcut for you. It works in every app, so a downward drag can open a new tab in Safari or Chrome and a down-then-right drag can close it.
-It is a small background utility for people who want browser-style gestures across the whole system. The latest release is 3.2.0 from January 2023; it is available from GitHub releases or as a Homebrew cask and checks for updates itself.
+Each rule pairs a gesture with a shortcut and an app filter. Gestures are short letter strings: L, U, R and D for the four directions, Z for a left click, and lowercase u and d for the scroll wheel. Wildcards `?` and `*` are allowed, and the first matching rule wins. Filters use bundle identifiers with wildcards, so `*safari|*chrome` limits a rule to two browsers, and a leading `!` excludes an app.
+
+A per-rule option fires the shortcut on every match while the button is still held. With that, you can drag up and then turn the wheel to step through tabs one at a time. Settings can be exported and imported from the General panel when you move to a new Mac.
+
+Version 3.2.0 is a Universal ZIP that needs macOS 10.13 or later. The app checks for updates itself and is also available as a Homebrew cask.
+
+The README lists a few known snags. Right click may stop working in some Java apps such as WebStorm, and some system-wide shortcuts can be assigned only after you switch them off in System Settings for a moment.

+
+Launch at login and a setting that keeps the Mac awake are both on by default. The interface comes in English, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese and Korean, and follows light and dark mode.
+
+MacMusicPlayer needs macOS 13 or later. The GitHub release is a DMG for Apple silicon only. It is ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so macOS can warn on first launch that the developer is unidentified. Control-click the app and choose Open once. The Homebrew cask from the samzong/tap tap installs the same DMG and clears the quarantine flag.
+
+A Download window (Command-D) searches YouTube and SoundCloud and fetches playlists with their thumbnails. You tick the songs you want, then pick a format and the target library. It relies on yt-dlp and ffmpeg, which the Homebrew install adds for you; with the DMG you install both yourself. YouTube search also needs the address and key of a custom search proxy service, entered in Settings. Song titles and artists show up best when files are named "Artist - Title".

-MacPacker presents archive contents in a Mac file-browser interface. It can inspect nested archives and lets you drag out only the items you need.
+MacPacker opens an archive like a folder. You browse its contents, preview files without extracting them and drag out only the items you need.
-It supports several archive and compression formats. Check its format documentation for the capabilities of each type and the release notes when using a beta build.
+- An archive inside another archive opens directly, in the app or in Quick Look, without unpacking the outer one first.
+- It reads more than 40 formats, among them RAR, 7z, ISO, DMG, VMDK and compressed tarballs, and detects them by content instead of file extension.
+- ZIP and 7z archives can be created, edited in place, protected with an AES-256 password and split into volumes.
+- Finder gets Quick Look previews and right-click commands to extract or compress, and you choose which commands appear.
+- Permissions, symbolic links, custom icons and Finder tags are kept when you archive and extract, so unpacked apps still open.
+
+When an archive holds several top-level items, MacPacker gathers them in a new folder that takes the archive's name. An archive holding one folder extracts as just that folder. Navigation uses the same keys as Finder, with breadcrumbs, sortable columns and search.
+
+The Unarchiver is also free, and its site describes setting it as the default app for all archive files. MacPacker shows what is inside first and lets you pick.
+
+MacPacker needs macOS 14.6 or later; version 0.14.1 was the last for macOS 13. The project says every build is sandboxed, signed and notarized, and the 1.2.0 DMG on GitHub holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. The same app is on the Mac App Store, where releases arrive a few days later.

-MacPass opens and edits KeePass-compatible databases with a macOS interface. It provides a local workflow for managing credentials in a portable database format.
+MacPass opens and edits KeePass databases, the same files used by KeePass and by cross-platform ports such as KeePassXC. It reads and writes both the old KDB format and current KDBX, and converts between them.
-Use the official GitHub releases linked here. The maintainer warns that the former macpassapp.org domain was lost and should not be used for downloads or updates.
+- Autotype types credentials into web forms and login dialogs in any app, and Global Autotype starts it from anywhere with a shortcut.
+- The password generator's method can be adjusted to meet a site's rules.
+- Entries can carry an expiry date; expired ones get a special icon and can be searched for.
+- Entry history, when turned on, stores past states inside the database so you can restore them.
+- Changes made to a database elsewhere can be merged in, and separate files merged into one.
+
+It behaves like a Mac document app. Databases open in windows or tabs, save automatically with browsable versions, and support undo, redo and drag and drop of entries, groups and attachments. Plugins add features.
+
+Version 0.8.2 needs macOS 10.13 or later and comes as a ZIP holding a Universal app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Update to it: the old macpassapp.org domain passed to a third party, and the maintainer asks anyone still on 0.8.1 or older to turn off automatic plugin updates. Releases come only from GitHub.
+
+1Password keeps your vault in a 1Password account and syncs changes to every device you sign in on. LastPass also stores it in an account, and its free plan works on either computers or phones, not both. MacPass works on a database file instead. 1Password's importer accepts a KeePass XML export but brings over only the passwords.

-Mac Sai bundles the kinds of tools found in commercial Mac cleaners: scans for system junk, caches, mail attachments and build folders, a large-file finder, app uninstallation, and performance and protection modules, plus a menu bar widget.
+Mac Sai scans your Mac for caches, logs, leftover app files and other space you can reclaim, lists what it found by module, and moves your selection to the Trash. A one-click Smart Scan runs the cleanup, protection and performance modules together and reports what each one freed.
-It is a young project that moves quickly, so review every scan result before deleting; the app sends removals to the Trash first. Upstream says it collects no telemetry. Its malware checks are not a substitute for dedicated security tools.
+- System Junk covers more than 16 categories, from user caches and iOS backups to Xcode leftovers, and can strip the unneeded architecture from Universal binaries.
+- Project Junk finds rebuildable folders such as `node_modules`, Rust `target` and Python virtualenvs, counting one only when neighbouring files confirm the project type.
+- The uninstaller removes an app along with its support files, or resets its preferences and caches while keeping the app.
+- Space Lens draws disk usage as a treemap, and the duplicate finder can reclaim space from copies with APFS clones while keeping every copy.
+
+Removals go to the Trash by default, and Clean History can put a whole clean back. System paths such as `/System` and `/usr` are blocked. The malware module matches files against Apple's XProtect signatures already on the Mac and flags known adware patterns, and the project states plainly that it is not an antivirus. Mail Attachments, Privacy and Malware need Full Disk Access. The developer says the app has no telemetry.
+
+CleanMyMac gathers the same kinds of tools into a commercial app from MacPaw, bought after a free trial. Mac Sai has no paid tier and publishes its source under the BSD 3-Clause license. The DMG holds a Universal app for macOS 14 or later, Developer ID-signed and notarized.

-MacSift scans for caches, logs and other leftovers and lists every item it proposes to remove, grouped by the app that owns it. Nothing is erased directly: selected files go to the Trash so Finder can restore them until you empty it.
+MacSift finds what is filling your disk and shows it to you before anything moves. You run a scan, look through the results, tick what you want gone, and the app sends those items to the Trash. Finder can put any of them back until you empty it.
-First-time users start in dry-run mode, large deletions ask for an extra confirmation, and each scan and cleanup is written to a log you can audit. The project says it makes no network calls. Builds are on GitHub releases; the app is not notarized, and the author's Homebrew tap clears the quarantine flag on install.
+Each file lands in one of eleven categories, each with a risk label of safe, review or caution:
+
+- caches, logs and temporary files
+- Xcode leftovers and developer caches from tools such as npm, pip, cargo and Homebrew
+- support folders of apps no longer in `/Applications`, plus Mail attachments
+- iOS device backups and local Time Machine snapshots
+- large files in your home folder and downloads older than 90 days
+
+Results are grouped by the app that owns them, so thousands of files inside one Safari cache folder become a single row. Clicking a row opens an inspector with the five largest files, Quick Look and Reveal in Finder.
+
+New installs start in dry-run mode. Cleaning always passes through a preview and a confirmation, and selections above 10 GB bring an extra warning. The engine refuses to touch `/System`, `/usr`, `/bin` and `/sbin`, and every scan and cleanup is logged under `~/Library/Logs/MacSift`. The author states that the app makes no network requests and has no telemetry.
+
+CleanMyMac also takes on malware and performance problems; MacSift sticks to finding space and moving it to the Trash. The app runs on Apple Silicon with macOS Sequoia or later and needs Full Disk Access. It is ad-hoc signed rather than notarized, so the first launch has to be approved in Privacy & Security, or you can install it with the author's Homebrew tap, which removes the quarantine flag.

-macSVG is an editor for SVG documents aimed at people who want to work close to the markup. Shapes, paths, text, and animation elements are edited through a document tree and attribute panels, while a WebKit view previews the result.
+macSVG edits SVG documents through their structure. The document appears as an outline of its XML elements, which you reorder or import by drag and drop, while a WebKit view renders the result and the Web Inspector is at hand.
-It suits hand-tuned web graphics and animations more than freeform illustration. Development has been quiet: the latest release, 1.2, dates from July 2022, and the license file also lists notices for bundled third-party components.
+- Paths with several segments can be edited, including text on a path and path shape animation.
+- Plug-in editors help set colours, gradients, patterns, transforms and animation attributes.
+- A timeline graph plays SMIL animation, and you can scrub its time marker to any moment.
+- JPEG and PNG images can be embedded or linked by URL, and SVG documents can be nested.
+- Google Web Fonts and TrueType fonts are supported.
+
+Attribute menus come from the SVG DTD, so predefined values are offered as choices. A built-in HTTP server sends live previews to browsers, phones or the iOS Simulator on the local network. Finished work can be exported as MPEG-4 video, converted to Core Graphics code for iOS and macOS, or uploaded over SFTP.
+
+The output targets SVG 1.1 for HTML5 pages, which display on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows and Linux. The developer has noted that macSVG relies heavily on WebKit's legacy WebView framework, which WebKit may remove.
+
+Version 1.2 from July 2022 is the latest release. It is a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID, and it requires macOS 10.14 or later.

-MacsyZones brings the FancyZones idea to the Mac: draw a layout of zones, including overlapping or grid-based ones, then drop windows into a zone to resize them to fit. Layouts can differ per display and be switched with shortcuts.
+MacsyZones lets you draw your own layout of zones on each screen and then drop windows into them. Hold Shift while dragging a window and the zones appear; release over one and the window fills it.
-The app is free to download from GitHub releases or the official site. A paid “Pro” licence is offered as a way to support the developer; according to the website it changes only the app's name, not its features.
+- Zones can overlap, and a layout editor opened from the menu bar adds, moves and resizes them.
+- Grid layouts let you draw a rectangle on a grid instead of choosing a fixed zone.
+- Shaking a window by its title bar brings up the zones without the Snap Key, and right-click snapping is on by default.
+- Quick Snapper, on Control-Shift-S by default, picks a zone by arrow keys or number and also switches layouts and windows.
+- Snap resizers appear where zone edges meet, and a window edge dragged close to one snaps onto it.
+
+The app remembers which layout you prefer for each combination of display and Space, and switches when you move between them. It needs the Accessibility permission. Do not place a zone on another screen while editing a layout, which the site lists as a known issue.
+
+The idea comes from FancyZones in Microsoft's PowerToys. Magnet snaps windows into fixed halves, thirds and quarters, while MacsyZones uses zone shapes that you define.
+
+Version 3.1.1 is a Universal ZIP for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized, and needs macOS 14. It is free to download from GitHub or the website. Buying a licence supports the developer and only adds "Pro" to the app's name.

-MaCursor swaps the system cursors for your own artwork or downloadable themes, with a visual editor for tuning each cursor and hotkeys for switching. Themes can be assigned per app, and Windows, Linux and Mousecape cursor packs can be converted.
+MaCursor replaces the pointers macOS draws with artwork you make or with themes from its gallery of more than 80. Double-click a `.cursor` file to import it, apply it from the library, and the Restore button puts the stock arrow back.
-It also adds extras such as cursor trails, focus-follows-mouse, drawn mouse gestures that trigger actions, and Finder context menu commands. The project requires macOS 13 or later.
+- The theme editor holds 1×, 2×, 5× and 10× images per cursor, with a draggable hotspot and a live preview where your own pointer takes on the cursor being edited.
+- Convert Theme rebuilds a Windows `.cur`/`.ani` folder, a Linux Xcursor theme or a Mousecape `.cape` file as a `.cursor` theme and lists the mapping for review.
+- Each app can get its own theme, and themes can change on a day and night schedule or with Light and Dark mode.
+- Cursor size goes from 0.5× to 4×, with an optional shadow and a mirrored left-hand mode.
+
+Beyond cursors, it adds Finder right-click commands, focus that follows the pointer, drawn mouse gestures that run shortcuts or open apps, pointer trails, and a translator frame. The translator uses Apple Translation on macOS 15 or later, or your own DeepL, OpenAI, Gemini or Claude key. Most of these run through a login helper that also keeps your theme after restarts, and several need Accessibility access.
+
+Apps that paint their own pointer, such as games, Blender and websites with CSS cursors, keep it. MaCursor needs macOS 13 or later. The 2.7.5 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel and is notarized by Apple.

-MacVim brings Vim's modal editing model into a macOS graphical application. It combines the editor's commands and plugins with Mac windows and platform-specific integration.
+MacVim runs Vim in its own Mac windows, with menus, toolbars, scroll bars and dialog boxes around the editor you already know. The editing itself is Vim's: the same modes, commands and plugins.
-It suits existing Vim workflows that need a desktop interface. Downloads are available as disk images from the MacVim release page.
+- Command-key shortcuts, trackpad gestures and the Touch Bar can be mapped to Vim actions.
+- Full screen comes in two forms: the macOS one and Vim's own.
+- Vim tabs appear as GUI tabs with colours you can set.
+- Text renders with font ligatures. Inside the editor you can use Services, look words up in the dictionary and call Apple Intelligence Writing Tools.
+
+Start it from the Dock, or type `mvim` in Terminal to open a file in a MacVim window.
+
+MacVim is a fork of Vim and regularly merges upstream changes, so core Vim features can arrive a little later than in the upstream `vim` package. Scripting interfaces for Lua, Perl, Python 2 and 3, and Ruby are built in, each tied to a specific language version listed in the release notes.
+
+The release DMG holds a Universal app, notarized by Apple, that needs macOS 10.13 or later; a separate legacy build covers 10.9 to 10.12. Homebrew installs the same binary with `brew install --cask macvim-app`. It is distributed under the Vim license.

-Maestro manages a fleet of command-line coding agents such as Claude Code, OpenAI Codex and OpenCode from a single window. Each agent gets its own session and project, and an Auto Run mode works through a written task list, starting each step in a fresh session.
+Maestro runs several command-line coding agents side by side in one window. You give each agent a project or branch, send it work from the keyboard, and follow every session with its own history.
-It passes requests through to the agents you already have configured, so their tools, permissions and accounts carry over. Builds for macOS, Windows and Linux are published on GitHub releases, and a Homebrew cask is available.
+Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, OpenCode and Factory Droid are supported, with Copilot CLI, Qwen3 Coder and Oh My Pi in beta. At least one of them has to be installed and signed in already. Maestro passes each request through to that agent, so the MCP tools, skills and permissions you set up there still apply.
+
+GitHub releases include separate Apple silicon and Intel disk images, next to Windows and Linux builds.
+
+- Auto Run works through a Markdown checklist or a written goal, giving each task a fresh session.
+- Git worktrees let agents work on separate branches while you keep using the main checkout.
+- A built-in web server with a QR code lets you check on agents from a phone, on the local network or through a Cloudflare tunnel.
+- `maestro-cli` runs playbooks without the window, for example from cron or a CI pipeline, with plain or JSONL output.
+- Group Chat makes one agent the moderator, which routes a question to the others and collects their answers.
+
+Each agent also gets a plain command terminal next to the AI one. Maestro imports sessions you started before installing it. When a provider is overloaded or a quota runs out, it resends the prompt after the wait and resumes Auto Run batches.

-MagicQuit closes apps automatically in two optional ways: after they have sat unused for a configurable time, or as soon as their last window is closed. Both work from an exclusion list, and media players are excluded from window-close quitting by default.
+MagicQuit quits apps you are no longer using, working from the menu bar. It has two mechanisms, and each one is optional per app.
-Apps are quit normally, as with Command-Q, so unsaved documents still prompt. The window-close feature needs Accessibility permission. The README lists macOS 14 or later and mentions MIT, but the repository's LICENSE file contains GPLv3, which this listing follows.
+Idle quit closes any app you have not touched for a set time. The default is eight hours, and the setting moves in fixed steps between 15 minutes and 48 hours. Quit on last window close makes an app exit when you close its final window, the way Windows behaves: close the last Preview document and Preview goes away too.
+
+Both features cover every regular app, and you keep a short list of exceptions rather than opting apps in. Music, Spotify, Podcasts and VLC start out excluded from window-close quitting, so playback carries on after you close their windows.
+
+The menu bar icon opens a list of running apps with the time each has left. A checkbox beside an app turns idle quitting off for it, and a reset button restarts its timer. Settings also cover launch at login.
+
+MagicQuit quits apps the same way Command-Q does and never force-kills them, so an app with unsaved changes asks you to save first. Counting windows, including minimized ones, uses the Accessibility API, so the window-close feature asks for Accessibility permission when you first enable it. Idle quit needs no permission.
+
+The 2.0 release is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized with a Developer ID, and it requires macOS 14 or later. The README's license section says MIT, while the LICENSE file in the repository holds the GPLv3 text.

-Mailspring is a desktop email client with a unified inbox, snoozing, scheduled sending, mail rules and reusable templates. Its interface is built with Electron, TypeScript and React, and a separate C++ sync engine runs locally on your computer.
+Add IMAP or Office 365 accounts to Mailspring, including Gmail, iCloud, FastMail, Outlook.com and Yahoo, and read them together in one unified inbox. It indexes your mail so you can run Gmail-style search queries across every connected account.
-Both the interface and the sync engine are published under GPLv3. Some advanced features belong to Mailspring Pro, an optional monthly subscription.
+- Snooze a message or undo a send.
+- Mail rules and signatures.
+- Grammar and spell checking in the composer, and an offer to translate mail that arrives in another language.
+- Built-in themes, including a dark mode, and themes and plugins written by others.
+
+It descends from Nylas Mail and is maintained by one of its original authors. The interface is written in TypeScript with Electron and React, on a plugin architecture, and it starts a separate sync engine in C++ and C, based on Mailcore2, that runs locally on your computer. Both parts are published under GPLv3. The developers say these features run in the client and that your email credentials are not sent to the cloud.
+
+Mailspring Pro, a monthly subscription, adds features for people who send a lot of mail, such as read receipts, link tracking, mailbox analytics and contact and company profiles.
+
+The download page has separate Mac builds for Apple silicon and Intel, alongside versions for Windows and Linux.
+
+Microsoft describes Outlook for Mac as a place for both your email and your calendar. Mailspring displays event invitations in the inbox and lets you RSVP, while its full calendar is still forthcoming.

-MakeItHome treats the space beyond the screen edges as an extra area. Moving the cursor past a border reveals running apps with live window previews; you can pin apps to an edge, and the top edge holds widgets for notes, tasks, a calendar, clipboard history and custom web widgets.
+MakeItHome turns the area just past your screen's edges into a place for switching apps. Push the cursor beyond a border and an "overscreen" slides in with the running apps and live previews of their windows. Click a preview and that exact window comes forward, so you can move between apps without the Dock or Command-Tab.
-Live previews need Screen Recording permission; the project says captures stay on the Mac. Releases are published on GitHub, and the developer also sells it on the Mac App Store.
+- You can lock an app to a screen edge, and it stays there on every Space.
+- The top edge opens a Widgets Zone, and you choose which of its built-in widgets to show: a notes and to-do list, a calendar with a month view and daily agenda, and a clipboard history that holds text, rich text, images and files.
+- Your own web widgets can be added to the same zone, and a web search started there opens its full-page results in an overlay.
+- With several displays, the overscreen follows the arrangement of your monitors.
+
+Other apps can add their own interactive area to their card through the App Extension API. The developer publishes a demo app for it, and the companion MakeItHome Web extension shows Safari tab previews this way.
+
+The app needs the Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions. The developer says window captures are processed on the Mac and are never written to disk or sent over the internet.
+
+MakeItHome requires macOS 12.3 or later. The 2.1.3 release on GitHub is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel; the same version is sold on the Mac App Store.

-MakLock protects selected applications: when someone opens or switches to one, a blurred overlay covers it until they authenticate with Touch ID, a nearby Apple Watch or a backup password. Trusted Wi-Fi networks, auto-lock on idle or sleep, and a panic key add more control.
+MakLock puts an authentication step in front of individual apps, so someone else at your Mac can't simply open Messages or another app you keep private. You pick the apps to protect in its settings. When one of them is launched, or when you switch back to it while it is already running, a blurred overlay covers it on every display until you unlock with Touch ID, a nearby Apple Watch or a backup password.
-It runs from the menu bar and is distributed directly rather than through the App Store, which the author says is needed for its overlay and process handling. Treat it as a convenience barrier on a shared Mac, not a substitute for separate user accounts.
+- It locks the protected apps again after a period of idle time, and when the Mac sleeps and wakes.
+- Quitting an app with Command-Q clears the unlock, so the next launch asks again.
+- It can quit protected apps that sit unused, which keeps their notifications from showing, and can close them when the Mac goes to sleep.
+- Apple Watch unlock uses wrist detection and needs watchOS 9 or later. When the watch leaves range, the apps lock again.
+
+The developer says MakLock is distributed outside the App Store because a sandboxed app could not manage the overlay and other apps' processes this way. It lives in the menu bar with no Dock icon, updates itself through Sparkle and needs macOS 13 or later. The 1.0.1 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and the developer's Homebrew tap offers it as a cask.
+
+Some safeguards keep you from locking yourself out. Terminal, Xcode, Activity Monitor and other system tools can never be locked, and the overlay goes away by itself after 60 seconds without input. Command-Option-Shift-Control-U dismisses every overlay at once, which also means anyone who knows the shortcut can get past it.

-MarkEdit is a native Markdown editor with an uncluttered writing surface. Open a file and work with familiar text-editing behavior and Markdown-focused assistance.
+MarkEdit opens Markdown files and shows the source with syntax highlighting, the way TextEdit handles plain text. You type the markup yourself. The editor follows the GitHub Flavored Markdown spec and adds no syntax of its own.
-It is a good fit when your documents already live as files and you want a dedicated editor. Explore the upstream documentation for customization and extension options.
+Editing runs on CodeMirror 6, and the window behaves like any other Mac app:
+
+- Multiple cursors and code folding.
+- Million-line files open and edit without trouble, according to the developer.
+- Shortcuts and AppleScript can drive it.
+- System text features work in the text, including Writing Tools, inline predictions and force-touch lookup.
+
+Anything beyond editing comes from extensions. A built-in manager installs the official ones, which add a rendered preview, hidden syntax, themes, visual table editing and AI writing help. You can also write your own in CSS, JavaScript or as CodeMirror extensions. The developer says MarkEdit collects no user data.
+
+Typora hides the markup and renders formatting as you type. MarkEdit keeps every asterisk and hash in view, and a preview is something you add.
+
+Version 1.37.1 needs macOS 26, and older builds for macOS 12 to 15 stay on the releases page. The main DMG holds a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and a smaller Apple silicon-only DMG sits beside it. The app checks for updates by itself.

-Marker Data reads markers, and optionally captions, from Final Cut Pro timelines and turns them into structured exports such as CSV, TSV, Excel, YouTube chapter lists or JSON for Notion and Airtable. It can render a still or animated GIF at each marker, burn in labels and pick out colour swatches for shot reference.
+Marker Data takes the markers you set on a Final Cut Pro timeline and writes their metadata out as a spreadsheet, a chapter list or a database entry. You send a project or compound clip to it through its share destination or workflow extension and pick a saved configuration for the export. Captions can stand in for markers when you prefer to log notes that way.
-It plugs into Final Cut Pro through a share destination and workflow extension, and saved configurations make repeat exports consistent. It is only useful alongside Final Cut Pro.
+Each export profile targets a different destination:
+
+- CSV, TSV and Excel files for spreadsheets
+- JSON for Notion and Airtable, which it can also upload to directly
+- YouTube or Compressor chapter text, a Markdown list or SubRip subtitles
+- A Standard MIDI file for Logic Pro and most other audio DAWs
+
+At every marker the app can render a still or an animated GIF, burn a label onto it with that marker's metadata, and embed colour swatches analysed from the image. Through Pagemaker, markers can also become a PDF to share. Several configurations can be kept side by side for different projects, and exports can be queued.
+
+The current release needs macOS Sequoia 15.7 or later, an Apple silicon Mac and Final Cut Pro 12.0, either the perpetual version or the Creator Studio subscription. Some modules need an internet connection, and the app has to sit in the Applications folder to run correctly. The 2.1.4 DMG is notarized by Apple.
+
+Marker Data is built on MarkersExtractor, which the same team also publishes as a command-line tool. The project lists shot libraries, VFX and ADR databases and music cue sheets among its uses.

-MarkText presents Markdown in a continuously rendered editing surface. It handles common document elements such as tables and code blocks while keeping files in Markdown format.
+MarkText renders Markdown formatting in the same view where you type. It hides syntax characters that are not needed on screen, so you write and edit the formatted text directly, and what you save is still a Markdown file.
-Use it for documentation, notes, and other writing where you want a visual editor without giving up plain-text portability.
+- It follows the CommonMark and GitHub Flavored Markdown specs, with partial support for Pandoc's Markdown.
+- Math written for KaTeX, front matter and emoji are handled as extensions.
+- Source Code mode shows the raw markup, Typewriter mode keeps the cursor in the middle of the window, and Focus mode fades out every line except the current one.
+- Images can be pasted straight from the clipboard into a document.
+- Finished documents export to HTML or PDF.
+
+Key bindings cover paragraph types and inline styles, and the command palette (Shift-Command-P) lists every available command. The app has 33 built-in themes, among them Cadmium Light, Nord and Material Dark.
+
+Typora also renders Markdown inline while you edit. Its site offers a 15-day trial and then a paid licence for up to three devices, while MarkText is free under the MIT license.
+
+MarkText needs macOS 13 Ventura or later. There is no Universal build: the GitHub release page has separate DMG installers for Apple silicon (arm64) and Intel (x64). The README still shows a Homebrew command, but Homebrew disabled its `mark-text` cask on 1 September 2026 because the app does not pass Gatekeeper. The same project also publishes builds for Windows and Linux.

-massCode began as a snippet manager and now covers more of a developer’s notebook: organised code snippets with syntax highlighting, Markdown notes, an HTTP request client, calculations, and assorted conversion tools.
+massCode keeps code snippets, Markdown notes, HTTP requests, calculations and sketches in one desktop app. Everything is saved as plain `.md` files with frontmatter in a vault folder, so you can put it under Git or in an iCloud, Dropbox or Syncthing folder, and the app picks up changes made outside it.
-Data is stored locally on your Mac. GitHub releases include Apple silicon and Intel builds alongside Windows and Linux packages.
+- Snippets sit in nested folders with tags and multiple fragments, highlighted in more than 160 languages and formatted with Prettier.
+- Notes add task lists with due dates, internal links, a notes graph, Mermaid diagrams and a presentation mode.
+- The HTTP client sends HTTP, GraphQL and WebSocket requests, runs JavaScript tests on responses and imports OpenAPI, Postman and Bruno collections.
+- A math notebook handles unit, currency and date calculations in plain language, and an Excalidraw canvas holds diagrams you can embed in notes.
+- Small developer tools cover JSON diffs, hashes, UUIDs, Base64 and case conversion.
+
+Press Command-P to search across snippets, notes and requests from a command palette. Existing snippets can come in from VS Code, Raycast, SnippetsLab or GitHub Gists, and notes from an Obsidian folder.
+
+An optional AI assistant works with your own provider account or a local model; cloud providers receive the context used for each task. A built-in MCP server lets coding agents such as Claude Code or Cursor read and save items in the vault.
+
+GitHub releases carry macOS, Windows and Linux packages, with separate arm64 builds for Apple silicon. Each macOS download is over 250 MB.

-Medio compares two pieces of text and refreshes the highlighted differences live while either one is edited, marking changes down to individual words. It has light and dark modes.
+Medio is for the moment when you have two versions of a paragraph, a config snippet or a reply and need to see what changed. You enter the two texts, and the differences are highlighted word by word. Editing either text updates the highlights as you type, so you can keep revising and watch the comparison follow.
-It is a compact SwiftUI and AppKit app from nuance-dev; since version 3.0 the comparison relies on the Differ Swift package. The latest GitHub release, 3.2.0 from November 2024, ships as a zipped app, and the author describes it as an early project that may still have rough edges.
+It is a small app built with SwiftUI and AppKit. Since version 3.0 the comparison itself comes from Differ, an open-source Swift diffing package. The developer says Claude 3.5 Sonnet wrote the first version within a day, and that Medio was used to build itself.
+
+The source now offers Auto, Dark and Light appearance modes, with an icon that matches. The Auto setting, which follows the system theme, was merged in October 2026, after the last release.
+
+The download on the GitHub releases page, tagged v3.2.0 from late 2024, is a ZIP of about 1.3 MB containing a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. It needs macOS 14 or later and is Developer ID-signed and notarized. The author, a designer writing a first Swift app, warns that it is probably buggy and asks for reports on GitHub Issues.

-Medis provides a desktop interface for Redis databases. It helps developers browse keys and inspect values without carrying out every operation in a command-line client.
+Medis connects to a Redis server and lets you browse its keys, open a value and edit it in a window. A connection can go directly, over SSL, or through an SSH tunnel to a remote host. Heroku Redis works by pasting in the host, port and password from `heroku redis:credentials`.
-The MIT-licensed repository contains the original Electron-based Medis; its newest macOS build on GitHub Releases dates from 2016. The official site now distributes Medis 2, a separate native rewrite that is not part of this repository.
+- Keys are listed with `SCAN`, so large databases load without blocking the server.
+- A pattern manager narrows the list to a group of keys.
+- JSON and MessagePack values are shown with highlighting and checked when you edit them.
+- A built-in terminal runs any command, and the server config can be viewed and changed.
+
+Because it depends on `SCAN`, Medis needs Redis 2.8 or newer.
+
+This repository holds the original Electron app. Its last release, 0.6.1, came out in February 2017 with search inside a key and fixes for Heroku and sorted sets. That release has no Mac download attached; the newest packaged build is the Intel-only `medis-v0.5.0-mac-x64.zip` from December 2016. Otherwise you build it from source with npm.
+
+The project site now offers Medis 2, a separate rewrite in native code for macOS 12 or later, distributed through the App Store and Homebrew. It adds a tree view, streams and dark mode. Its code is not in this repository, so the MIT license here covers only the original app.

-melonDS provides Nintendo DS and DSi emulation on desktop computers. Its interface lets users configure the emulated system, controls, and display arrangement.
+melonDS runs Nintendo DS games on the Mac from ROM files, and lets you change how the two screens are positioned, sized and rotated. It also emulates the DSi, though that part is still in progress.
-Required games and system files are supplied separately. Upstream releases include a universal macOS archive.
+Games can start directly from the ROM. Booting through the console firmware instead needs BIOS and firmware dumps from an original DS or DS Lite; firmware dumped from a DSi or 3DS holds only configuration data and will not boot. You make those dumps yourself, and the project's FAQ links a dumper that runs from a flashcart. DSi mode also needs the DSi's own BIOS, firmware and NAND image.
+
+- A JIT recompiler speeds up emulation.
+- The OpenGL renderer can upscale 3D graphics.
+- Savestates and joysticks are supported, and the clock, the microphone and closing the lid are emulated.
+- Wi-Fi covers local multiplayer and online play, and both are still being worked on.
+- DLDI is supported, and GBA slot add-ons are a work in progress.
+
+Version 1.1, released in November 2025, added DSP emulation for DSi games, cheat import from usrcheat.dat and higher-quality audio resampling. The developer writes on the project blog that version 1.2 will follow once a new OpenGL renderer is finished.
+
+The Mac download is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. The same release is built for Windows, Linux and several BSDs, and nightly builds come straight from the GitHub repository. melonDS is licensed under GPL version 3 or later.

-MenuMeters makes system activity visible through compact menu bar meters. It continues the original MenuMeters project with changes for later versions of macOS.
+MenuMeters puts small CPU, memory, disk and network meters in the menu bar, and clicking one opens a menu with the figures behind it. You pick which meters appear and how they look in its preferences window.
-The maintainer recommends newer alternatives such as Stats for sufficiently recent Macs. This entry retains the downloadable classic utility for users who prefer its presentation.
+- The CPU menu lists processors, load average over 1, 5 and 15 minutes, uptime, and task and thread counts.
+- The memory menu shows used and free memory, memory pressure, VM statistics and swap files.
+- The disk meter is an activity light or arrow set that changes between idle, read and write.
+- The network menu gives throughput, peak throughput, traffic totals and IPv4 and IPv6 addresses per interface, with items to copy an address.
+
+Each menu also has shortcuts to Activity Monitor, Console and the network settings.
+
+This version is a port of Alex Harper's original MenuMeters, which stopped working on El Capitan because the system no longer loads third-party menu extras. Yuji Tachikawa turned the meters into ordinary status items and later turned the old preference pane into a standalone app. Many outside contributions are merged in.
+
+Release 2.1.7 is a Universal ZIP for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized, and needs macOS 12. A separate 2.1.6.1 build covers Big Sur and earlier. Move the app out of Downloads with the Finder before launching it, or it cannot update itself.
+
+iStat Menus also reads GPU, sensors and battery, and can control fans. In the 2.1.7 release notes the maintainer himself recommends switching to Stats as better maintained.

+- Notch view: shows game details and recent plays, and expands on its own when the score changes.

-MeshLab provides filters and inspection tools for working with 3D meshes. Clean up imported geometry, compare results, and prepare a model for another tool in your pipeline.
+MeshLab cleans up and converts 3D triangle meshes, the kind of large, messy models that come out of 3D scanners. You load a scan, run filters to repair or reconstruct it, inspect the result in the viewer and export it in a format the next tool can read.
-It is especially useful for scan data and geometry processing, rather than creating every part of a model from scratch.
+- Cleaning and healing tools fix broken geometry in raw scan output.
+- Screened Poisson surface reconstruction builds a surface from point data.
+- A Global Registration plugin aligns scans of one object.
+- Exact mesh booleans combine or subtract shapes.
+- Texturing, rendering and measuring tools let you check a model before passing it on.
+
+Most of the processing comes from VCGlib, a C++ mesh library from the Visual Computing Lab at ISTI-CNR in Italy. MeshLab is the interactive front end for trying its algorithms. To script the same work, the lab publishes PyMeshLab, a Python library that took over from the old meshlabserver command-line tool.
+
+Version 2025.07 added 3MF files and native builds for Apple silicon. Earlier releases brought glTF, GLB and E57 support. MeshLab also has features for preparing models for 3D printing.
+
+Each release has two Mac downloads, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel. A second set, marked with a "d" in the file name, stores data in double precision. The Apple silicon app is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. MeshLab is free under the GPL and also runs on Windows and Linux.

-MewNotch replaces the stock volume and brightness overlays with indicators that grow out of the notch on newer MacBooks. Expanding the notch reveals more: a file shelf that persists across restarts, now-playing controls with a seek bar, power source details, a camera mirror and the output of custom shell commands.
+MewNotch puts the volume and brightness feedback on a MacBook into the notch. When you press a volume or brightness key, or use the Touch Bar, the change shows on the notch itself. The stock macOS overlays can be switched off.
-Most features have their own settings, and the notch can stay visible on the lock screen. Releases are distributed as disk images on GitHub and through the developer's Homebrew tap.
+Hovering over the notch expands it, and the app adds more to the notch area:
+
+- A shelf in the expanded notch where you drop files to keep them handy or send them with AirDrop. They stay there after a restart.
+- Now-playing controls for whatever media is running.
+- The current power source, with time remaining as an option.
+- A mirror in the expanded notch that shows your camera image.
+- The output of shell commands you define, with a title, alignment and click-to-copy.
+
+The app needs macOS 14 or later, and the 2.4.0 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. It updates itself through Sparkle. The developer has no Apple Developer account, so the first launch is blocked until you allow it under Privacy & Security in System Settings. You can install it from the releases page or the developer's Homebrew tap.
+
+Macs without a notch, and external displays, can still use it. You pick a simulated notch, a floating island or a HUD that appears only when needed, and choose which screens show it. BetterDisplay is supported. You can reorder the items, set the hover delay, turn animations off and give the lock screen its own size and default view.

-mGBA provides a desktop interface for emulating Game Boy Advance and supported Game Boy systems. It includes configuration and debugging features for different use cases.
+mGBA plays Game Boy Advance games, along with Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles, from ROM files you load. You play with the keyboard or a gamepad, and both can be remapped.
-Game software is supplied separately. macOS disk images are available from the project's official releases.
+- Hold Tab to fast-forward and Backquote to rewind.
+- Nine save-state slots, each shown as a screenshot.
+- Recording to video, GIF, WebP or APNG.
+- Cheat codes, IPS, UPS and BPS patches, and games opened straight from ZIP or 7z archives.
+- Lua scripting, and a debugger with a command line and GDB remote support.
+
+It detects each cartridge's save type, flash memory size included, and keeps real-time clocks running without setup. Hardware extras are covered too. The Game Boy Camera and Printer work, as do the e-Reader and the solar sensor in the Boktai games. Two games on the same Mac can connect over an emulated link cable.
+
+A built-in BIOS replacement means you need no BIOS file, though you can load one.
+
+The download page offers a modern macOS build for 10.13 and later and a legacy one for 10.9. The modern build is a universal app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Some Game Boy mappers are only partly supported, and the README lists which features each one is missing.

-MiaoYan arranges folders, notes and the editor in three columns over a directory of Markdown files, which can live in iCloud Drive or another synced folder. It supports wikilinks, LaTeX, Mermaid diagrams, version history, formatting cleanup and turning a note into a presentation.
+MiaoYan opens a folder of Markdown files and shows it in three columns: folders, the notes inside, and the editor. You pick the folder in Preferences, and every note stays a plain `.md` file there.
-The GitHub releases and Homebrew cask provide the free open-source Mac app. A paid App Store edition adds iPhone and iPad versions.
+Writing happens in plain Markdown with syntax highlighting. Press Command-backslash to put a rendered preview beside the editor, or switch to preview alone. The editor handles:
+
+- wikilinks between notes
+- LaTeX math and Mermaid diagrams
+- version history and automatic formatting
+- slide decks, split on `---` lines and shown with reveal.js
+
+Sync is left to the folder. MiaoYan never signs in to a cloud account; put the folder in iCloud Drive or one kept by a sync client such as Nutstore, and it reads and writes the files like any other. Before switching folders it checks for read and write access and keeps the old path if the new one fails. The developer says the app collects no data.
+
+A `miao` command-line tool can open, create, search, list and print notes from Terminal, installed separately with a script from the repository.
+
+Bear also writes in Markdown, but it organizes notes by tags inside its own library. MiaoYan keeps your folder structure and the files themselves.
+
+The GitHub DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, needs macOS 12 or later, and is notarized. That build and the Homebrew cask are the free MIT-licensed version. A paid App Store edition covers the Mac, iPhone and iPad with one purchase.

-MiddleClick translates multi-finger clicks or taps into a middle mouse click. That can open links in background tabs, close tabs, and trigger other middle-button actions in applications.
+MiddleClick turns a three-finger click or tap on a MacBook trackpad or Magic Mouse into a middle mouse click. Middle-click a link in Safari and it opens in a new background tab. Middle-click a tab to close it, or middle-click in Terminal to paste the selected text.
-The original project is now considered finished and points to a separate successor, WheelClick. This entry covers the still-available GPL-licensed MiddleClick application.
+There is no settings window. You change its behaviour with `defaults write art.ginzburg.MiddleClick` in Terminal:
+
+- `fingers` sets how many fingers count, from the default of 3 up to 10. A value of 2 clashes with normal right-clicks.
+- `allowMoreFingers` also accepts clicks with extra fingers, for when your other hand rests on the trackpad.
+- `maxDistanceDelta` limits how far the pointer may travel during a tap.
+- `maxTimeDelta` limits how long a tap may last, 300 milliseconds by default.
+
+To hide the menu bar icon, hold Command and drag it off the menu bar. Opening MiddleClick again brings it back. Three Finger Drag can conflict with it, and the project documents how to handle that.
+
+The developer has declared MiddleClick finished and says it has no telemetry. It stays free under GPL-3.0, and its successor, WheelClick, is a rewrite built on documented macOS interfaces. The release ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, which runs on macOS 10.13 or later.

-MiddleDrag translates three-finger gestures into a middle mouse click or drag. This can help with tab management, canvas panning, and applications that expect a physical middle mouse button.
+MiddleDrag turns a three-finger tap on the trackpad into a middle click and a three-finger drag into a middle-button drag. In a browser that means opening links in background tabs or closing a tab with a tap. In 3D and CAD apps such as Blender or FreeCAD, the drag pans and orbits the viewport.
-Its menu bar settings expose gesture sensitivity and smoothing. The upstream installer and instructions describe the Accessibility permission it needs.
+Mission Control, Exposé and the other system gestures keep working. MiddleDrag reads raw touch data through Apple's private MultitouchSupport framework before the system gesture recognizer sees it, then posts synthetic middle-mouse events. Tap lightly: a hard press can still trigger Mission Control.
+
+The app sits in the menu bar as a hand icon, and its menu holds the settings.
+
+- An on/off switch for gesture recognition.
+- Drag sensitivity, from 0.5x to 2x cursor speed.
+- A rule that ignores touches with four or more fingers.
+- Launch at login.
+
+MiddleDrag needs the Accessibility permission, and it works with built-in MacBook trackpads and the Magic Trackpad. Each update counts as a new app to macOS, so if gestures stop after an update, switch MiddleDrag off and on again under Privacy & Security > Accessibility.
+
+MiddleDrag requires macOS 15 Sequoia or later. Releases come as a PKG installer containing a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Each download carries a GitHub artifact attestation you can check with the `gh` command. The app updates itself and sends crash reports to the developer.

-Min provides a small browser interface centered on the address bar, search, and task-based tab organization. It is designed for browsing without a large amount of visible interface chrome.
+Min keeps its own interface small so the page gets the room. Its tabs are slimmer, leaving more of the window to the page, tabs you have not looked at for a while fade out, and Focus Mode hides your other tabs while you work on one thing.
-The project publishes the browser source and Mac application archives. Check current extension and website compatibility against your browsing needs.
+Tasks are Min's answer to a crowded tab bar. Each task is a group of tabs, and you switch between groups with keyboard shortcuts. A task you are not using collapses on its own.
+
+- Search runs over the full text of pages you have visited, and that index stays on your device.
+- Bookmarks take tags, and Min suggests pages similar to ones you have saved.
+- Most ads and trackers are blocked without any setup.
+- It includes an automatic reader view.
+- It works with password managers and has a dark theme.
+
+Min is written in JavaScript on Electron and released under the Apache 2.0 license. Each GitHub release carries separate ZIP downloads for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and the Apple silicon app for version 1.35.7 requires macOS 12 or later. Builds for Windows and Linux come from the same release.
+
+The developers say Min does not share your browsing history. You can extend the browser with userscripts, and the project wiki documents how to write them and collects scripts from other users. The wiki also lists the keyboard shortcuts.

+MiniSim gathers every iOS simulator and Android emulator on your Mac into one menu bar list. Click a device to boot it, or press Option-Shift-E from any app to open the menu. It finds devices through `xcrun` and the Android SDK's emulator tool, so Xcode and Android Studio need to be set up first.
-It is useful for mobile developers who switch devices often, and pairs with an optional Raycast extension. It works with the simulators and emulators already set up through Xcode and the Android SDK.
+For an iOS simulator, the menu copies the device name or UDID, or deletes a simulator you no longer need. Android emulators get more options.
+
+- Cold boot an emulator when it misbehaves.
+- Launch it with audio off, so it does not disrupt music playing through your headphones.
+- Toggle TalkBack accessibility on an emulator.
+- Copy its name or ADB id for command-line work, or paste the Mac clipboard into it.
+

-Mixio adds a menu bar window that lists apps producing sound and gives each its own slider, including individual browser tabs. A 10-band equalizer and an optional custom volume overlay complete it, styled to resemble the system's own menus.
+Mixio gives every app that is playing sound its own volume slider, so you can lower a video call without touching your music. Click the speaker icon in the menu bar and a window lists the current output device, its overall volume and one row per app. Dragging a row's slider changes only that app, clicking its speaker icon mutes it, and clicking its icon brings the app to the front. Mixio remembers the levels you set and applies them again the next time an app makes sound.
-It requires macOS 26 or later and System Audio Recording permission; Accessibility access is needed only for the custom overlay. Signed DMGs are on the releases page.

-Mixxx combines a music library with decks, cue points, and mixing controls. It can be used from a keyboard and mouse or with supported DJ hardware.
+Mixxx puts up to four decks on screen for mixing digital music files live. You drop a track onto a deck and it starts playing, with a scrolling waveform for beats and cue points and an overview of the whole song for seeking.
-Use it to prepare sets, practice transitions, or perform live. Controller support and audio routing depend on the hardware you connect.
+- BPM and musical key detection run over your library, and Sync Lock keeps up to four decks matched in tempo and beat.
+- Keylock changes tempo without changing pitch. Hotcues, quantized loops of 4, 8 or 16 beats and beat rolls let you rework a track while it plays.
+- Effect chains link up to three effects, and up to 64 sampler decks layer sounds over the mix.
+- Auto DJ takes over with automatic crossfades when you step away.
+- Mixes can be recorded to WAV, FLAC or Ogg Vorbis, or streamed live to a Shoutcast or Icecast server.
+
+Mixxx comes with presets for many MIDI and HID controllers, and you can write your own mappings in JavaScript. Timecode vinyl or CDs on turntables or CDJs can drive the decks too. The library holds crates and playlists, looks up missing tags on MusicBrainz, and reads existing iTunes, Traktor, Rekordbox and Serato libraries. It plays FLAC, WAV, AIFF, MP3, AAC, Ogg Vorbis and Opus files.
+
+Mixxx 2.5.6 needs macOS 11 or later. The download page offers separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon disk image is notarized. The project says there is no paid or pro edition.

-Mochi Diffusion is a SwiftUI app for local image generation. It runs Stable Diffusion models converted to Core ML through Apple's implementation, with a choice of compute units, and FLUX.2 Klein models through a Metal pipeline. Image-to-image and ControlNet are supported with suitable models, which you download or convert separately.
+Mochi Diffusion turns a text prompt into images on your Mac, with the models stored by default in a folder in your home directory. You pick a model, type a prompt, and the result appears in the app's gallery without anything going to a server.
-Generation happens entirely on the Mac without a network connection. Results land in a built-in gallery and are saved as PNGs carrying their generation settings in a form that other Stable Diffusion tools can read. Releases are distributed as DMGs on GitHub and through Homebrew.
+Three model families work, each set up differently:
+
+- Stable Diffusion models converted to Core ML run through Apple's implementation. You download converted models or convert them yourself, and each one generates a single image size fixed at conversion.
+- These Core ML models can start from an existing image or use ControlNet. You choose between CPU and Neural Engine or CPU and GPU, and the model version has to match that choice.
+- FLUX.2 Klein models need no conversion and accept up to four input images, which the app shrinks when the pipeline needs smaller ones.
+- Z-Image Turbo runs text to image only. Its recommended full-precision download is about 32 GB, and it can fail on Macs with less than 24 GB of memory.
+
+Mochi Diffusion needs an Apple silicon Mac and macOS 15.6 or later. The 6.3 DMG holds an Apple silicon app, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+The first run of a Core ML model can take up to two minutes while the Neural Engine compiles it. Saved PNGs keep their generation settings in a form that AUTOMATIC1111-compatible tools and Civitai read. The developer says the app collects no data or telemetry.

-Mockoon lets you define fake API endpoints in a desktop app and serve them from your own machine. Routes can match methods and regex paths, return templated JSON, files, custom headers and delays, forward unmatched calls to a real backend, and log every request that arrives.
+Mockoon lets you build a fake version of an API on your own Mac and point your app at it. In the desktop app you create a mock server, add routes, and start it on a local port; requests to that port get the responses you defined.
-It works with OpenAPI definitions, and the same mocks can run headless through the Mockoon CLI. Mockoon Pro is a separate paid team offering; the desktop app and CLI are MIT-licensed, with macOS builds on the website, GitHub releases and Homebrew.
+- Route paths can be regular expressions, and routes return a status, custom headers, a file or a JSON body.
+- JSON bodies can be templates that fill in Faker.js data or URL parameters, query strings and request-body values.
+- Rules choose between responses for one route, and delays simulate slow services.
+- A proxy mode forwards routes you have not mocked to the real backend.
+- Every request that arrives or is forwarded is logged, and the app can turn recorded calls into mocks.
+
+You can start from an OpenAPI specification and export a mock back to one. The same mock files run without the desktop app through the Mockoon CLI, which is published on npm and as a Docker image, so a CI job or a shared test server can serve exactly what you designed. HTTPS is supported, and you can run as many local servers and routes as you need.
+
+The desktop app and CLI are free and MIT-licensed, and they need no account. The developer says mock traffic stays on your machine and is not tracked. Mockoon Pro is a separate paid, self-hosted platform for teams. Mac downloads come as Universal, Intel and Apple silicon DMGs.

-Modal File Manager navigates and manages files through modes and hotkeys in the spirit of Vim, with customisable key bindings, themes and extensions. It is built with Svelte and Wails, and its configuration can be extended with scripts.
+Modal File Manager lets you drive a two-pane file browser from the keyboard the way you drive Vim. In normal mode, `j` and `k` move the cursor, `l` enters a folder and `h` goes up, while `c`, `m` and `x` copy, move and delete the selection. Press `v` for visual mode to select entries, or `i` for insert mode to create files and folders or rename one. A count in front of a key repeats it, so `5j` jumps five rows.
-The author warns that file operations can permanently delete data, and drag and drop to other apps is limited. The latest macOS build is a universal zip on GitHub releases.
+- A command prompt, opened with `:`, runs any command by name.
+- Quick search filters the current pane down to entries containing the text you type.
+- Entries can be selected with a regular expression, and past expressions are kept for reuse.
+- Extensions can add whole new modes; the Favorites extension adds a `fav` mode for jumping between saved folders.
+- Themes and extensions can be browsed and installed from GitHub inside the app.
+
+Key maps, themes and extensions live in `~/.config/modalfilemanager`. Sending deleted items to the Trash relies on the `trash-cli` tool from Homebrew, and video details in the side panel use ffmpeg. You can also launch it from the shell with one or two paths to open in the panes.
+
+The v2.0.1 macOS release is a Universal zip for Apple silicon and Intel that lists macOS 10.13 as its minimum. The author calls it beta software and warns that it can delete files permanently. Files cannot be dragged out to other apps, a limit the author puts down to the app being built on web technology.

-Mole Widget pins a compact system dashboard to the desktop, above the wallpaper and below ordinary windows. It shows CPU load and temperature, memory, disk usage and throughput, network rates, battery health and the busiest processes, styled after the status view of the mole command-line tool, and clicking a section opens Activity Monitor.
+Mole Widget keeps your Mac's vital numbers on the desktop itself, in a borderless panel that sits above the wallpaper and below your windows. Its look borrows from the terminal status screen of the mole command-line tool (`mo status`), and it is written in Swift and SwiftUI.
-The panel appears on every Space, stays out of Mission Control and the app switcher, and remembers its position and width. It requires macOS 14 or later and ships as a signed, notarized DMG that updates itself through Sparkle.
+The panel is split into sections:
+
+- a header with the chip, RAM, macOS version, uptime and a health score from 0 to 100
+- CPU usage, the three busiest cores, load average, chip temperature and a trend line
+- memory, root disk space with read and write speed, and network rates with the active interface and local IP
+- battery charge, health, cycle count and temperature, plus the three processes using the most CPU
+
+Clicking a section title opens Activity Monitor. The panel shows on every Space, stays out of Mission Control and ⌘Tab, and keeps its position and width (490 to 880 points) between launches. A lock icon pins both, and an eye icon hides the panel until you choose Show on desktop from the menu bar.
+
+The menu bar icon carries the settings: opacity, which sections appear, a refresh rate of 1, 2 or 5 seconds, and font size and style. It can also show live CPU, memory and temperature figures that turn yellow above 60% and red above 85%. There is no Dock icon.
+
+The app needs macOS 14 or later, and the app in the 0.8.4 DMG is built for Apple silicon only and notarized with a Developer ID. Whether you install the DMG or the developer's Homebrew cask, it updates itself through Sparkle.
+
+A Usage History window records CPU and memory load for as long as 12 hours. Drag its scrubber to a past moment and it lists the processes that used the most at that time.

-Money Manager Ex provides account registers, transaction categories, and reports for understanding recorded income and expenses. Budget tools help compare plans with what has been entered.
+Money Manager Ex keeps your household books. You enter what comes in and what goes out, give each transaction a payee and a category, and the account balances follow. Categories nest as deep as you like, and one split transaction can carry several tags.
-It is designed for maintaining personal financial records, with local database files and optional import workflows.
+- Accounts cover checking, credit cards, savings, stock investments and fixed assets, and each account can use its own currency.
+- Scheduled transactions handle recurring bills and deposits, with reminders when they come due.
+- Budgets run per year or per month and compare the plan with what you spent.
+- Receipts, invoices and contracts can be attached to transactions, accounts and assets.
+- Data comes in from QIF and CSV files and goes out as QIF, CSV or HTML.
+
+Reports with charts are one click away. For anything they miss, you can write your own report with SQL queries, Lua and an HTML front end, or pick one from the project's general-reports repository.
+
+Everything lives in a single SQLite database file that can be AES-encrypted, and you can keep that file on whichever cloud drive you already use. Android and iPhone versions exist as separate apps.

-MongoDB.app bundles the MongoDB server binaries into a Mac app: drag it to Applications and open it to get a local database server without a separate install. The bundled command-line tools can be added to your shell path for use outside the app.
+MongoDB.app gives you a local MongoDB server for development in the form of an ordinary Mac app. You drag it to Applications and open it, and it starts `mongod` in the background with a leaf icon in the menu bar. Quitting the app stops the server.
-It is meant for local development rather than production deployments. Releases track specific MongoDB versions, the most recent bundling MongoDB 8.0.5. Homebrew has disabled its cask because the build fails Gatekeeper checks, so download from GitHub releases and approve the app manually.
+The server listens on port 27017 and accepts connections only from the Mac itself. Data goes to a Data folder and the log to a Logs folder, both under the app's directory in your Application Support folder. The menu shows the app's version and the port, opens the logs folder, links to the documentation and checks for app updates.
+
+Giovanni Collazo wrote it as a small Swift wrapper that runs MongoDB's own official binaries, inspired by Postgres.app and aiming at the simplest setup for people new to MongoDB. The release number follows the bundled MongoDB version, with a build suffix for changes to the app itself. The 8.0.5-build.1 release ships MongoDB 8.0.5. To call the bundled tools from Terminal, you add the app's `Vendor/mongodb/bin` folder to your `PATH`, which the README shows for both `~/.bash_profile` and `/etc/paths.d`.
+
+The 8.0.5 download is a ZIP whose app declares macOS 11 or later. Its `mongod` binary is built for Apple silicon only, so an Intel Mac cannot run that release's server. Homebrew has disabled its `gcollazo-mongodb` cask since 1 September 2026 because the app does not pass the Gatekeeper check, so the GitHub release is the way to get it.

-MonitorControl brings brightness and volume controls to compatible external displays. Use keyboard keys or its menu bar interface to make adjustments.
+MonitorControl lets the brightness and volume keys on a Mac keyboard work on an external monitor. Press them and the display changes, with the same on-screen indicator macOS shows for a built-in screen. A brightness icon in the menu bar opens sliders for each connected display.
-Hardware support depends on the monitor, connection and available control protocols. Consult the project compatibility notes before expecting every display function to work.
+How it changes the picture depends on the screen:
+
+- Most current LCD monitors take DDC/CI commands over USB-C, DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI or VGA, which set the real backlight, contrast and speaker volume.
+- Apple displays and built-in screens use Apple's own protocol.
+- Televisions, which rarely support DDC, get dimmed in software through the gamma table.
+- AirPlay, Sidecar and DisplayLink screens are dimmed with an overlay shade.
+
+Software dimming can carry on below a monitor's lowest backlight setting, down to full black. One slider or shortcut can move every display together. The app can also copy changes on a built-in or Apple screen, such as those from the ambient light sensor, to a non-Apple monitor.
+
+Some connections only get software dimming. Over HDMI, DDC fails on the 2018 Intel Mac mini, on M1 Macs and on the entry-level M2 Mac mini, so those Macs need a USB-C connection for hardware control. DisplayLink docks and EIZO monitors that use their own protocol are limited the same way.
+
+Version 4.4.0 or newer is required on macOS 27. The 4.4.0 app sets macOS 10.14 Mojave as its minimum, but full functionality needs macOS 11 Big Sur or later. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The media keys need the Accessibility permission, and custom shortcuts can replace them in Settings.

-Monolingual lists localization resources and lets you select languages to remove. It is a specialized way to reduce the size of installed applications when you only need a subset of their translations.
+Monolingual deletes the localization files for languages you never use, so apps and macOS stop carrying translations you will not read. The project puts the space you get back at several hundred megabytes. By default it marks for removal every language that is not in your list under Language & Region, and you can change that selection.
-Removing resources changes application files and may require reinstalling an app to restore them. Review the selected languages and the upstream instructions before applying changes.
+Deleting files from installed apps has consequences. Some language packs are subsets of others, and the FAQ warns against removing the English files: taking out "English" while keeping "English (United States)" leaves an incomplete system. Newer Adobe apps check for their own files and ask to be reinstalled after a run, so the FAQ suggests excluding them in Monolingual's preferences.
+
+The current release requires macOS 27 on Apple silicon. The 2.0.4 disk image is notarized and holds an Apple silicon app. Older releases remain on the site for systems back to Mac OS X 10.4, including 1.8.2 for macOS 10.13 to 10.15.
+
+The app can also strip unused processor architectures from executables, with an option to remove debug information at the same time. That work is done by a privileged helper, registered as a launch daemon, that talks to the app over XPC. It runs only after an administrator approves it under Login Items & Extensions in System Settings. Version 2.0.4 is a security release that fixed how the helper followed symbolic links.

-Moonlight is the desktop client for hosts running Sunshine or NVIDIA GameStream. It decodes H.264, HEVC and AV1 streams with hardware acceleration and supports HDR, surround audio and many gamepads with rumble and motion controls.
+Moonlight puts the games on your gaming PC onto your Mac screen. The PC runs a host, with Sunshine being the one the project recommends, and Moonlight shows the game or the whole desktop while your input goes back. You can play from another room, or from far away if you set up the host for remote access.
-Pointer capture works for games, while a direct mouse mode suits remote desktop use, and system shortcuts can be passed through to the host. The experience depends on the host's encoder and the local network; wired or fast Wi-Fi connections work best.
+- Hardware-accelerated decoding of H.264, HEVC and AV1. AV1 needs Sunshine and a host GPU that supports it.
+- HDR streaming and 7.1 surround sound.
+- YUV 4:4:4 colour and 10-point multitouch with Sunshine.
+- Gamepads with force feedback and motion controls, up to 16 players.
+- Pointer capture for games, or direct mouse control for remote desktop work.
+- System shortcuts such as Alt-Tab passed through to the host.
+
+With a capable setup Moonlight streams up to 4K with HDR and up to 120 frames per second. Turning off V-Sync lowers latency further. NVIDIA's GeForce Experience also works as a host, though NVIDIA is discontinuing its streaming feature.
+
+The same project makes clients for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Android and more. Moonlight is run by its community, with no ads, paid tiers or subscriptions.
+
+Version 6.2.0 is a DMG with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. It needs macOS 13 or later.

-MoonProxy is a graphical front end for frp's client, aimed at exposing local services such as a NAS, a development server or a game server through your own frps server without editing `frpc.toml` by hand. It bundles frpc, manages TCP, UDP, HTTP and HTTPS rules, and shows connection state, port health and traffic.
+MoonProxy gives frp's client a window. You can publish a service on your Mac or your network, such as a NAS, a home blog or a local port for webhook callbacks, through an frps server without writing `frpc.toml` or running frpc in a terminal. You bring the server, either one you host or a public one you trust. MoonProxy handles only the client side and leaves frp's own behaviour unchanged.
-You still need access to an frps server; MoonProxy only manages the client side. The website and default README are in Chinese, with an English README available. Builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs are on GitHub releases.
+- frpc ships inside the app, so nothing else needs installing. MoonProxy can later fetch newer frpc versions from frp's GitHub releases, check them against a SHA256 hash and swap them in.
+- TCP, UDP, HTTP and HTTPS rules sit together on one tab, up to 50 of them since version 1.2.
+- A start button shows four states: stopped, connecting, connected or error. The home tab charts upload and download rates, connection count and total traffic.
+- Each local port is checked for reachability on a timer that backs off from 3 to 24 seconds, so a dead tunnel shows up quickly.
+- Closing the window leaves frpc running from the menu bar. The app can launch at login and connect only on chosen weekdays and hours.
+
+The developers say configs and tokens stay on your Mac and that MoonProxy does not relay your data. The interface comes in English and Simplified Chinese, and the app installs as 月神代理, its Chinese name.
+
+Separate DMGs exist for Apple silicon and Intel, and the app asks for macOS 10.15 or later. The README says the builds are ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so the first launch needs right-click and Open.

-Mos changes mouse-wheel scrolling to feel smoother and lets you separate its direction from the trackpad. It provides preferences for adjusting the scrolling response on macOS.
+Mos takes over the wheel of an ordinary mouse and turns its coarse steps into smooth, gliding movement, while the trackpad keeps its own behaviour. You set the step size, gain and duration in its settings, or switch on a mode that imitates trackpad scrolling.
-The source is published under CC BY-NC 4.0, which restricts commercial use. OpenMacApps lists Mos as source available rather than open source.
+- Vertical and horizontal scrolling each get their own smoothing and reverse switches, so the wheel can run opposite to the trackpad.
+- Hotkeys you choose can speed up scrolling, swap the axis, or pause smoothing for a moment.
+- Every app can inherit the global settings or override scrolling, shortcuts and button bindings.
+- Any mouse button, key or custom event can be recorded and bound to a system action, a shortcut, an app, a script or a file.
+- Built-in actions cover Mission Control, Spaces, screenshots, Finder and document editing.
+- Logitech buttons work through Bolt and Unifying receivers or direct Bluetooth, including Logitech-specific actions.
+
+Mos sits in the menu bar. macOS may prompt for the Accessibility permission when Mos first opens; without it, Mos cannot read or rewrite scroll events.
+
+The current release runs on macOS 10.13 or later as a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. It comes as a ZIP, and the app inside is Developer ID-signed and notarized. Homebrew users can install the `mos` cask.
+
+The code is published under CC BY-NC 4.0, which forbids commercial use, so OpenMacApps lists Mos as source available. The developer also asks that nobody upload it to the App Store.

-MountMate lists connected external drives and their mounted state, with controls for mounting, unmounting, and checking free space. It also supports automatic reconnection for configured network shares.
+MountMate lists your external drives in a menu bar popover and mounts, unmounts or force-ejects each one with a click. It was built for a spinning backup disk that macOS keeps waking: unmount it, and it stays quiet until you mount it again from the menu, with no Disk Utility or Terminal.
-This keeps occasional backup drives and remote volumes within reach. Finish file operations before unmounting a volume or using its force-eject option.
+- Disks can unmount before the Mac sleeps or when the screen locks, and mount again on wake. A per-volume idle timer unmounts a drive after 1 to 60 minutes without reads or writes.
+- Selected USB disks can be blocked from mounting at plug-in or login, and optionally at startup through an /etc/fstab rule, which asks for your admin password.
+- SMB and NFS shares mount at login, and Keep Alive reconnects shares and volumes that drop.
+- Encrypted APFS volumes unlock from the popover, with the password kept in the Keychain if you choose.
+- A volume can mount read-only, to protect a backup or inspect a damaged drive.
+- Thirteen Shortcuts actions, along with global keyboard shortcuts for Mount All and Unmount All, put the same controls in automations.
+
+Each row shows free space, with an orange warning when a volume passes a fill level you set and a red triangle when the disk's SMART status reports failing. You can hide, protect or pin volumes, and Apple RAID sets appear as one disk.

-MTMR (My TouchBar My Rules) takes over the Touch Bar and fills it with items you choose: system keys such as Escape, volume and brightness, plus widgets like weather, battery, music controls and buttons that run AppleScript or shell commands. The layout lives in a JSON file, and shared presets and a visual designer are available.
+MTMR, short for My TouchBar My Rules, replaces the default Touch Bar on a MacBook Pro with a strip you build yourself. You describe each item in a JSON file, `items.json` in MTMR's Application Support folder, and the app draws the bar from it.
-It only matters on MacBook Pro models with a Touch Bar. The last release, 0.27, dates from November 2020, while the repository still sees occasional commits.
+- System keys: Escape, brightness, keyboard illumination, volume and mute, plus previous, play and next for media.
+- Widgets for the clock, battery, CPU load, currency rates, weather, input source, music, Night Shift, Do Not Disturb, dark mode, a pomodoro timer, network activity and upcoming calendar events.
+- A Dock widget that opens an app with a half-long press and quits it with a full-long press.
+- Custom buttons whose title comes from an AppleScript or shell script, refreshed on an interval you set, and groups of items that you leave again with a close button.
+
+Two-finger and three-finger slides on the Touch Bar can change volume and brightness, and you can bind your own two-, three- or four-finger swipes to an AppleScript or a shell command. Grant MTMR the Accessibility permission first. Without it, Esc, volume, brightness and the other system keys do nothing. If you would rather not write JSON by hand, community presets are shared in a separate repository, and the README links a visual editor called MTMR Designer.
+
+The newest release, 0.27 from November 2020, is an Intel-only build that asks for macOS 10.12.2 or later. Support for Apple silicon as a universal binary was merged into the repository in 2026 but has not shipped in a release yet. The app is only useful on MacBook Pro models that have a Touch Bar.

-muCommander is an orthodox, two-panel file manager in the Norton Commander tradition: browse two locations side by side and copy, move or compare files with the keyboard. It can also browse inside archives and connect to network locations.
+muCommander shows two folders side by side, and you copy, move or rename files from one pane to the other from the keyboard. Every shortcut can be reassigned, and each pane holds several tabs.
-The app is written in Java and runs on several operating systems; macOS disk images are published for Apple silicon and Intel on GitHub releases. Expect a cross-platform interface rather than a Finder-like one.
+The same panes open far more than local disks. Through its virtual file system muCommander browses:
+
+- FTP, SFTP, SMB, NFS and HTTP servers
+- Amazon S3 buckets and Hadoop HDFS
+- Dropbox and Google Drive accounts
+- Bonjour services on the local network
+- Archives opened like folders: ZIP, 7z, RAR, TAR, BZip2, GZip, ISO/NRG, AR/Deb and LST
+
+Saved passwords go into a credentials manager, and bookmarks work across all of these locations. Batch rename handles a whole selection at once. Checksums can be calculated for selected files, and files can be emailed straight from the panes.
+
+The app is written in Java and runs on macOS, Windows, Linux and any other system with Java support. Toolbars, themes and the interface language are configurable.
+

-Mullvad VPN provides a desktop interface for choosing a server location and managing the connection to Mullvad's network. The project publishes its application source.
+Mullvad VPN connects your Mac to Mullvad's servers. You pick a country or a single server, press Connect, and your traffic leaves through that location.
-The client is open source; using the VPN network requires a separate paid account. Download the signed macOS installer from the official site.
+- Tunnels use WireGuard, with multihop through two servers and options to carry the traffic over TCP, Shadowsocks or QUIC.
+- Anti-censorship settings, port probing and traffic obfuscation are built in.
+- A kill switch built into the firewall uses atomic operations so traffic does not leak.
+- Split tunneling lets chosen apps bypass the VPN.
+- WireGuard keys rotate automatically.
+
+On the desktop the app has three parts: a background service that holds the tunnel, the graphical window and a `mullvad` command-line tool. You can also send support requests from inside the app.
+
+The client is free, but the network needs a paid Mullvad account. Creating one gives you an account number straight away, and one account covers up to five devices. Mullvad says it keeps no logs of user activity.
+
+CyberGhost's pricing page lists plans from one month to two years. Mullvad charges one flat monthly rate whatever the length of the plan, and its desktop and mobile client source is public under the GPL v3.
+
+The current release, 2026.5, needs macOS 15 Sequoia or later. The default download is a small installer, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, that fetches the app. A standalone installer is offered for when that method does not work.

-Multipass is Canonical's tool for spinning up Ubuntu virtual machines with a single command. It downloads and updates images for you, supports cloud-init metadata for simulating small deployments, and on macOS runs instances with QEMU or, optionally, VirtualBox.
+Multipass starts a fresh Linux virtual machine with one command. Type `multipass launch lts`. It fetches the current Ubuntu LTS image and boots it as a new instance, and `multipass shell` then opens a terminal inside it.
-Most workflows use the `multipass` command, with a desktop GUI and tray menu for launching and managing instances. The macOS installer package is published on GitHub releases.
+- `multipass exec` runs a single command in an instance without opening a shell.
+- cloud-init metadata configures an instance at launch, as it would on AWS, Azure or Google Cloud.
+- Snapshots, clones and folder mounts each have their own command.
+- Availability zones, new in 1.17, place instances in named zones with isolated subnets to simulate a cloud.
+
+Multipass keeps its images up to date for you. Ubuntu is the default. Version 1.17 adds built-in Debian and Fedora images, the first other distributions with direct support. A GUI client shows the image catalog and your instances, and a tray icon menu manages them too. Some settings exist only in the GUI and others only on the command line.
+
+On macOS the default backend is QEMU on Apple's Hypervisor framework. Version 1.17 previews a driver built on Apple's Virtualization framework, which Canonical plans to use in place of QEMU and VirtualBox. Multipass needs macOS 14 Sonoma or later on an Apple silicon or Intel Mac. The installer is a PKG on GitHub and needs an administrator account. A Homebrew cask exists, but the Multipass team does not support it. The README also warns that the macOS firewall can stop instances from launching.

-Museeks imports a folder of music files and plays them from a straightforward track list, with playlists, queue management, shuffle and repeat, cover art and playback speed control. It supports common formats including MP3, AAC, FLAC, WAV and Ogg.
+Museeks plays the music files already on your Mac. Its library lists tracks so you can play them, build playlists and line songs up in a queue. It handles MP3, MP4, M4A/AAC, FLAC, WAV, Ogg and 3GPP files.
-The project intentionally keeps its feature set small instead of competing with full library managers. GitHub releases include a universal macOS disk image; package-manager versions are community-maintained and may lag.
+- The library refreshes automatically.
+- Shuffle and loop sit beside queue management for the current session.
+- Playback speed can be changed, and cover art is shown for each album.
+- Playlists can be imported from and exported to `.m3u` files.
+- It has a dark theme and a sleep-mode blocker.
+
+The author keeps the feature set small on purpose rather than competing with bigger, better-known players, and asks for feature requests as GitHub issues. If the app freezes or crashes, the README suggests resetting it by deleting the contents of `~/Library/Application Support/museeks`, which Settings can open for you.
+
+Museeks is built with Tauri and Rust, with a React interface, and runs on Linux and Windows as well. The macOS release is a universal disk image for Apple silicon and Intel. In version 0.23.4 the app inside is Developer ID-signed and notarized and declares macOS 10.13 or later. Homebrew and other package managers carry community-maintained copies that may trail the latest release.

-MuseScore Studio lets you enter musical notation, arrange parts, and listen to a score during editing. Layout tools prepare the result for rehearsal or print.
+MuseScore Studio is where you write out sheet music: enter notes onto the page, lay out the score, and play it back to hear what you wrote. The page you edit is the page that prints, and you can export it as a PDF.
-The desktop notation application is open source. Online score services and optional sound products are separate offerings with their own terms.
+Note entry is built to be quick, and a connected MIDI keyboard can enter notes too. The handbook covers the details of writing for guitar, harp, percussion and keyboard alongside the usual pitch, rhythm, repeats and text.
+
+- MusicXML, MIDI and MEI files import and export, and MuseData files import, so scores move between MuseScore and other notation programs.
+- A built-in synthesizer plays the score, with a mixer for each instrument and support for SoundFonts.
+- VST instruments and effects already installed on the Mac show up in the mixer.
+- Muse Sounds libraries install through the separate Muse Hub app, which lives in the menu bar.
+
+The Mac download page offers two versions: one bundled with Muse Hub, which needs macOS 12 or higher, and MuseScore Studio on its own. Finished scores can be uploaded to musescore.com or shared on Audio.com from inside the app, though nothing requires it.
+
+The desktop program is free and open source under GPL version 3.

-Picard groups music files into albums and matches them with MusicBrainz metadata. Review the proposed information before writing tags back to your files.
+Picard reads a folder of music files, works out which album release each track belongs to, and writes MusicBrainz data back into the tags. Nothing is written until you save. Working album by album lets it use the MusicBrainz release data as fully as possible.
-It helps bring consistency to artist names, release details, and filenames across a music library assembled from different sources.
+- Files with no tags at all can still be identified through AcoustID audio fingerprints, which match the sound itself.
+- Inserting a CD looks up the whole disc by its disc ID, and Picard can submit new disc IDs.
+- Picard can find and download the cover art for each matched album.
+- A scripting language controls how tags are written and how files are renamed and sorted into folders.
+- Plugins extend what Picard does, and you can write your own.
+
+It handles MP3, FLAC, Ogg, M4A, WMA, WAV and other common formats, and the data comes from the community-maintained MusicBrainz database, which covers millions of releases.
+
+Picard 3.0.4 needs macOS 13 or later and comes as two separate builds, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel Macs, each on its own DMG. Version 2.13.3 stays on the download page for Intel Macs running macOS 10.14 or later. The app inside the 3.0.4 DMG is signed by the MetaBrainz Foundation and notarized. Picard is licensed under GPL 2.0 or later and also runs on Windows and Linux.

-MyMedia is a SwiftUI library app for movies and TV shows stored on your own disks, written as an alternative to the TV app for local files. Imported titles are shown with their artwork and details, read from the metadata embedded in each file, so a tagging tool such as Subler is the way to prepare them.
+MyMedia turns the movie and TV files on your own disks into a browsable library with artwork, descriptions and episode lists. It is meant as an alternative to Apple's TV app, which the README says lacks much of what local media needs. Everything shown comes from the metadata already inside each file. MyMedia cannot edit that metadata yet, so you tag files beforehand; the README recommends Subler for this.
-It tracks unwatched movies and episodes, supports collections, pins and favorites, and keeps separate genres for films and series. Playback uses the built-in player or the system's default app. Releases are published as disk images on GitHub.
+You add single files or whole folders. Once imported, the library offers:
+
+- unwatched tracking for movies, shows and individual episodes
+- collections, pins and favorites, with separate genre lists for films and series
+- search across titles, people and descriptions, plus a page for each person listing everything they are credited in
+- list and table views alongside the artwork layout, and a detail page for each episode
+
+Videos play in the built-in player, which supports Picture in Picture, or in your default video app. An optional local HTTP API, added in version 3, lets other apps browse the library and stream files; the companion MyMedia for Android TV uses it. The API has no authentication, so the README advises keeping it on a trusted network.
+
+Infuse also builds an artwork-rich library, but it downloads the metadata itself and reaches files on network shares, Plex, Emby, Jellyfin and cloud storage. MyMedia relies on the tags you have already written into your files.
+
+MyMedia needs macOS 15 or later. Version 3.0 is an Apple silicon build in a DMG, and the app inside is notarized. The interface is in English and German, and Homebrew users can install it from the developer's tap.

-mysa covers the screen with a frosted overlay and a breathing orb when you press its hotkey or menu-bar icon, writing a short joke in animated handwriting while you breathe. It includes several breathing patterns, lets you define your own, and blocks input to other apps until you press Escape.
+mysa gives you a breathing break on demand. Press Control-Option-Command-B or click the gradient "m" in the menu bar, and the screen dims behind a frosted overlay while a small orb in the notch area breathes in and out to pace you. A developer joke draws itself across the screen in handwriting as you inhale and erases itself as you exhale.
-It is a small personal project with a single release. The download is not notarized, so macOS asks for confirmation on first launch, and the author describes it as a relaxation toy rather than a health tool.
+While the overlay is up, mysa takes mouse and keyboard input away from other apps on purpose. Escape, the close button or the hotkey again ends the break.
+
+- Seven breathing patterns are built in, among them 4-7-8, box breathing and pursed-lip breathing.
+- Steppers in the notch let you build your own pattern from timed phases.
+- A settings panel opened during a break changes tint, blur, grain and gradient while you watch.
+- The hotkey can be changed from the icon's right-click menu, and it needs no Accessibility permission.
+
+The single release, version 1.0 from June 2026, is a ZIP holding an Apple silicon app for macOS 14 or later. It is not notarized, so the first launch needs a right-click and Open. Building from source with the included script also registers mysa as a login item on first launch.
+
+The author calls it a relaxation toy and says it is not a medical device.

-NAPS2 combines scanner access with page organization and document export. Rotate or reorder pages, then save the result as a PDF or image collection.
+NAPS2 drives your scanner, gathers the pages in one window and saves them as a PDF, TIFF, JPEG or PNG. You scan from a flatbed or a document feeder, duplex included, with resolution, page size and bit depth set in a profile.
-OCR can add searchable text to scanned documents. Scanner compatibility depends on the device and the drivers available on your Mac.
+Before you save, you can fix the pages:
+
+- drag them into a new order, or interleave two passes for manual duplex
+- rotate them by hand, or deskew them automatically
+- crop them, or change brightness and contrast
+- run OCR to make the text in a PDF searchable
+
+OCR uses Tesseract. It covers more than 100 languages, and the first time you choose Tools > OCR on a Mac, NAPS2 asks which of them to download and set up.
+
+Scanners attached to another computer on your local network can be shared and used from your Mac. A command-line tool runs scans from scripts, and the interface is translated into over 40 languages. The project describes NAPS2 as free for people and businesses alike, with no ads and nothing bundled.
+
+Version 8.6.0 needs macOS 12. It comes as an installer package for Apple silicon, for Intel or for both, and the universal package is notarized. On macOS 10.15 or 11, NAPS2 7.5.3 is the version to use.

-Nativ wraps the mlx-vlm inference server in a Mac app for running models on Apple silicon. It picks up MLX models already in your Hugging Face cache, downloads new ones with memory-fit warnings, and offers chat with image attachments, local image generation and a voice-dictation extension.
+Nativ runs open models on your Mac through a bundled mlx-vlm server. You pick a model, then chat with it, attach images, or point your coding tools at it.
-The same server is exposed through OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible endpoints, and the app can configure terminal coding agents and editors to use it. Usage analytics, a live CPU, GPU and memory monitor, MCP server connections and scheduled prompts round it out, with server controls and stats in the menu bar.
+The app finds MLX models already in your Hugging Face cache and downloads others with a warning when one will not fit in memory. You can move the cache to an external APFS drive. Once a model is on disk, inference stays on the Mac; downloads still need the network.
+
+- The local server answers OpenAI-compatible chat, Responses, image, audio and embeddings requests, plus Anthropic Messages, at 127.0.0.1:8080 by default.
+- It can configure and launch terminal agents such as Claude Code, Codex and Aider, and set up VS Code, Cursor or Zed against the same server.
+- An Images tab generates and edits pictures with MLX image models.
+- An Audio extension adds voice dictation in any app, with transcript history.
+- MCP servers expose their tools to chat, and saved prompts can run on a schedule.
+- A monitor shows per-core CPU load, GPU use, memory pressure and thermal sensors, and the menu bar can pin live graphs.
+
+Nativ needs an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 26 or newer. The release is a DMG, also available as a Homebrew cask, and later versions arrive through Sparkle.
+
+Development moved from the Blaizzy GitHub account to Neywa Labs, and the old GitHub Pages address now forwards to runnativ.ai. LM Studio also downloads and serves models, but it runs on Windows and Linux too and pairs llama.cpp with MLX. Nativ is MLX only and Mac only.

-Natron uses a node graph to combine images, apply effects, and control how a composite is assembled. The graph makes intermediate processing steps visible and reusable.
+Natron is a compositor for visual effects work. You load footage and images, then wire nodes together in a graph that keys, tracks, rotoscopes and merges them. Groups of nodes can be saved as reusable tools, and community-made PyPlugs install by drag and drop.
-It is suited to compositing work and motion imagery where a chain of image operations matters more than a conventional editing timeline.
+- Processing runs in 32-bit floating-point linear color, with color management through OpenColorIO.
+- Reading and writing go through OpenImageIO and FFmpeg, covering EXR (including multi-layer files), DPX, TIFF, PNG, H.264 and DNxHR among others.
+- Roto, rotopaint, 2D tracking and chroma keying tools are included, along with a curve editor and dope sheet for keyframes.
+- OpenFX plugins work, and the binaries bundle the project's own IO, Misc, G'MIC and Arena plugin sets.
+- Python handles parameter expressions, callbacks and extra menus and windows in the interface, and Natron can render without its interface for batch jobs or a render farm.
+
+Adobe presents After Effects as motion graphics software for film, TV, video and web design. Natron's own site pitches its node workflow at people coming from Nuke or Fusion, and project files are XML that you can edit by hand.
+
+The current stable release, 2.5.0 from November 2022, ships Intel-only Mac builds for several macOS generations back to OS X 10.6. The site says it runs on Apple silicon through Rosetta 2 and offers an alpha build with native Apple silicon support. Development continues on the 2.6 branch, and the README asks for new developers and maintainers.

-NearDrop implements part of Google's Nearby Share and Quick Share protocol for macOS. It runs in the menu bar and connects the Mac's sharing workflow to compatible Android devices.
+NearDrop lets your Mac exchange files with Android phones over Google's Nearby Share and Quick Share. It sits in the menu bar and saves incoming files to your Downloads folder. When a phone sends something, it displays a PIN, and the Mac shows a notification, which Do Not Disturb can hold back.
-The devices must share a local Wi-Fi network. The Mac remains visible to others on that network while NearDrop runs, and some Quick Share features are not implemented.
+Sending works the other way too. Right-click a file in Finder and choose Share, then NearDrop, or share a link from Safari's toolbar. Android only becomes visible after hearing a Bluetooth Low Energy broadcast that macOS won't let apps send, so the Mac usually can't find the phone by itself. NearDrop shows a QR code for the phone to scan instead, which is the only route on Samsung phones; on other Android phones the Quick Share button in Google Files also works.
+
+Version 2.2.2 from September 2026 is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 10.15 or later. It is not notarized, so the first launch needs a right-click and Open. A Homebrew tap from the developer is also available. The protocol is documented in the repository.
+
+The app reimplements only part of the protocol. It works over Wi-Fi only, so both devices must be on the same network, and public networks in cafés or hotels may block the traffic between them. Wi-Fi Direct, Bluetooth and Google's internet relay are not supported. While NearDrop runs, the Mac is visible to everyone on the network, because limiting visibility to contacts would require Google's servers.

-Neodisk scans storage and visualizes which files and folders take up space. Search, file-type statistics, and saved scans help you investigate large directories or compare how usage changes.
+Neodisk scans a disk or folder and draws it as a treemap or a sunburst, so you can see which folders hold the space. Pinch to zoom the treemap or drill through the sunburst, and use the arrow keys to walk the folder tree in the list and both maps.
-It deliberately avoids deleting or modifying files. Reveal items in Finder when you decide what to keep, move, or remove.
+- Command-F runs a fuzzy search over the whole scan, and the space bar opens Quick Look.
+- The duplicates view groups files with identical content, checked by hash, by how much space you would get back.
+- Completed scans are saved, and the Changes tab shows new, deleted, renamed and resized items against the scan before.
+- An age heatmap colors the treemap by last-modified date, and file type statistics break usage down by kind.
+
+Scanning only reads. To free space you collect items in the Cleanup area of the sidebar, review them and confirm once, and they go to the Trash, where you can still get them back. Neodisk refuses to move system folders, volumes or your home folder and its standard folders. You can switch the cleanup tools off in Settings.
+
+Neodisk needs macOS 14 or later. The 2.83.2 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and Sparkle keeps it updated. A Linux version covers the core views but lacks the duplicates and changes tabs.
+
+DaisyDisk also draws a disk as rings, and Neodisk's README credits it as one of the sunburst viewers its own view follows. DaisyDisk is sold as a one-time purchase, and its site says it can now scan connected cloud storage. Neodisk is free under the GPL.

-NeoHtop is a graphical system monitor with process filtering, sortable resource columns, and pinned processes. It helps you focus on a particular application or group of background tasks.
+NeoHtop shows what your Mac is doing in one window: CPU, memory, GPU, storage and network charts above a table of running processes. Sort the table by usage, pin a process you want to keep in sight, or open its inspector for the details.
-This entry covers the desktop application, not the separate CLI. The release downloads include builds for Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.
+- Tree view groups processes into families and shows their combined CPU and RAM.
+- Search takes names, commands and PIDs, with commas for several terms and regular expressions for patterns.
+- Typing `:3000` or `port:443` finds the process holding that port.
+- Filters combine CPU, RAM, runtime and status conditions.
+- A menu bar companion lists the five busiest processes and live readings without bringing the main window forward.
+
+The charts hold about two minutes of history in memory, and you can pause sampling to look at a spike with the pointer or the arrow keys. On a Mac, GPU figures come from the IORegistry, and counters such as temperature appear only when the system exposes them. Family totals can pass 100% across cores. Closing the main window quits the app unless you turn on the setting that keeps it running in the menu bar.
+
+The app needs no account. Official builds send a launch count and the app version without a persistent identifier, and the developer says process names, searches and readings stay on the machine.
+
+Task Manager gives Windows users a similar process list and performance graphs, plus control over startup apps. NeoHtop adds port lookup and process trees, and it also runs on macOS and Linux.
+
+Apple silicon and Intel Macs get separate DMGs. The Apple silicon app is Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it declares macOS 10.13 as its minimum. NeoHtop is MIT-licensed.

-The same codebase also targets iPhone, iPad and Vision Pro. On the Mac it is available from GitHub releases, with App Store availability that upstream notes can vary; the project currently targets recent macOS versions.
+- Syntax highlighting covers many languages, including TeX/LaTeX and Typst, with regex find and replace, Emmet expansion and an optional lightweight Vim mode.
+- Markdown, HTML and SVG files get a preview pane on request; PDF and PNG files open in a preview automatically.
+- Markdown exports to PDF as paginated or single-page output, and math renders offline with bundled KaTeX.
+- A side-by-side diff compares a tab with the file on disk or with another open tab.
+- There are 30 built-in color themes plus custom colors.
+
+The direct GitHub build adds a terminal tab, a Python project runner and the `nve` command-line helper, which the App Store version leaves out. The same editor also runs on iPhone, iPad and Apple Vision Pro. The v2.1.7 download is an Apple silicon build, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The README describes the app as designed and tested for macOS 26, with compatibility work for macOS 15.
+
+Large files are handled in stages: past a size threshold the app defers features such as the minimap and full syntax analysis, and files of 100 MB or more open read-only, showing only the first 4 MB. AI features are optional. Apple Intelligence is the default provider where available, others such as OpenAI, Anthropic and Gemini are opt-in, and keys go in the Keychain. The project states it collects no telemetry.

-Neovide puts Neovim in its own Mac window. Editing behaves the same as in the terminal, and your existing configuration and plugins keep working, but the window adds graphical touches a terminal cannot: smooth scrolling, an animated cursor, animated window movement, font ligatures and blurred floating windows.
+Neovide runs Neovim in a Mac window of its own. You edit exactly as you would in Terminal, with the same keys, configuration and plugins, while Neovide draws the text and adds effects a terminal cannot show.
-It is a client only, so Neovim itself must be installed separately; current releases need Neovim 0.12 or newer on your `PATH`. Separate DMGs are published for Apple silicon and Intel Macs. Neovide can also attach to a Neovim instance running on another machine.
+- Scrolling moves the buffer pixel by pixel, without jumping a line at a time.
+- The cursor slides to its new position with a smear trail, and optional effects such as Railgun or Ripple change how it moves.
+- Split windows animate when the layout changes.
+- Floating windows get a blurred background, and fonts render with ligatures and emoji fallback.
+
+Neovide is only the front end. Neovim 0.12 or later has to be installed and on your `PATH`. Started from Finder or the Dock, Neovide looks for `nvim` through your login shell, or you can give the full path as `neovim-bin` in its config file.
+
+It can also attach to a Neovim that is already running. Start `nvim --headless --listen` with a TCP address or a Unix socket, then open Neovide with `--server` pointing at it. Forward that socket over SSH and the editor on a remote machine appears in a local window. Closing the window leaves that Neovim session running.
+
+Rendering uses OpenGL. Releases include separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and the Apple silicon app is notarized.

-Apache NetBeans is a full IDE with project management, editors, debugging and build tool integration, best known for Java development. It is maintained as an Apache Software Foundation project with regular numbered releases.
+NetBeans is an IDE for Java, PHP, JavaScript, HTML5 and CSS, and it can refactor code as well as edit it. The editor highlights code both by syntax and by meaning, and wizards and templates set up new Java and PHP applications. For PHP work it covers ground similar to JetBrains' PhpStorm, but under the Apache license.
-The ASF publishes a platform-independent binary archive that runs on a supported JDK. The official download page also links macOS installers that bundle a JDK; these are built by NetBeans committers as a convenience and are not ASF releases themselves.
+The IDE itself runs on Java. NetBeans 31 runs on JDK 21, 25 or 26, with early support for JDK 27. The JDK that runs the IDE does not limit which Java version your projects use.
+
+The download page offers several options for a Mac:
+
+- The Apache release is a platform-independent ZIP, which you start with a JDK you have installed.
+- Codelerity builds a macOS package with a Temurin JDK inside.
+- The Friends of Apache NetBeans build another one, also with a JDK.
+- A source ZIP is there if you would rather build it yourself.
+
+The two packages are made by NetBeans committers as a convenience. The Apache Software Foundation does not count them as its own releases, and the bundled JDK comes under its own license terms.
+
+Apache NetBeans ships four releases a year. Version 31 came out on 10 August 2026, and older versions remain downloadable without support. Beyond the IDE, the project offers NetBeans as a tooling platform and an application framework for building other desktop software. Every release passes a vote of the project's management committee on its mailing lists.

-Later versions grew into a broader network companion, with DNS presets, a connection-path view and a lightweight VPN client for imported OpenVPN, WireGuard and IKEv2 profiles. Mac releases are published as zipped apps on GitHub; a Windows edition is in public beta.
+- A statistics window keeps traffic history by adapter and by app, with ranges from one hour to one year.
+- A speed test window runs M-Lab or Cloudflare tests and keeps a local history of results, each with a notes field.
+- Router monitoring reads whole-network WAN throughput from Fritz!Box, UniFi, OpenWRT and OPNsense routers.
+- Network Slice is a live window that ranks the hosts, services and apps your Mac is talking to. It works from netstat counters rather than packet capture.
+
+Over time the app has taken on jobs beyond monitoring. It can switch DNS resolvers from the popover, using built-in presets or your own, and apply rules per Wi-Fi network. It lists nearby Wi-Fi networks and joins them. It also contains a small VPN client that imports OpenVPN, WireGuard and IKEv2 profiles from a provider, so you can connect without the provider's own app. A menu bar mark shows when any VPN is up, including ones started by other clients such as Tunnelblick or Tailscale. DNS changes and some VPN work go through a privileged helper you install once.
+
+The developer says NetFluss sends no telemetry, and its own online lookups (update check, public IP and country) can each be turned off. The app runs on macOS 13 Ventura and later, though its OpenVPN and WireGuard support requires Sonoma. Releases are ZIP files on GitHub, signed and notarized with Rana GmbH's Developer ID according to the project, and the app updates itself. A Windows version is in beta.

-Netiquette presents network activity alongside the processes responsible for it. It helps investigate which applications are communicating and inspect their connection details.
+Netiquette lists every network connection and open socket on the Mac, grouped under the process that owns it. Open the app and each process expands to show local and remote addresses and ports, protocol, interface, connection state and bytes sent and received.
-This is a network inspection tool. Use the official documentation to interpret its results and distinguish expected application traffic from activity that needs attention.
+By default the window refreshes itself every few seconds and hides Apple's own processes; both can be changed in settings. Type into the filter box to narrow the list by process name, path or PID, or by an address, port, interface or state; typing "Listen" leaves only the sockets waiting for incoming connections. The Save button writes what you see to a JSON file.
+
+Netiquette needs macOS 10.15 or later. Version 2.3.0 comes as a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+The same binary inside the app bundle also works from Terminal. Run it with -list to print every connection as JSON, add -names to resolve remote host names, -pretty to indent the output, or -skipApple to drop Apple processes. Nothing needs installing, and deleting the app removes it.

-NextAI Translator, previously called OpenAI Translator, sends text to a language model and returns a translation, a polished rewrite or a summary. It covers dozens of languages, streams results as they arrive, can read them aloud, and can translate text captured from a screenshot. A vocabulary book collects words and can generate memory aids for them.
+NextAI Translator sends text to a large language model and gives you back a translation, a polished version or a summary, in any of 55 languages. Select text in another app and press a global shortcut, or type into the app's window. Results stream in as the model writes them, and you can copy them with one click or have them read aloud.
-You need your own API key for OpenAI, Azure OpenAI or a compatible provider. The same project offers browser extensions and PopClip integration; the desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux is published as DMGs on GitHub releases.
+The developer renamed the project after a trademark warning from OpenAI. The author had first written a ChatGPT translation plugin for Bob, a macOS translation app, and started this project for people without a Mac. It began as a Chrome extension before the desktop app arrived.
+
+It can also translate text from a screenshot, and a vocabulary book keeps words you save and can generate memory aids for them. The latest release also carries an extension for PopClip, the macOS text-selection menu.
+
+NextAI Translator does no translation itself. You need an API key for OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, MiniMax, TeamoRouter or another supported provider, and your text is sent to that provider. The README recommends TeamoRouter, a gateway that reaches several model makers through one key.
+
+The desktop app is built with Tauri and also runs on Windows and Linux; Chrome and Firefox extensions are released from the same repository. The latest release offers a DMG for Apple silicon only. The README says macOS may refuse to open the app because the developer cannot be verified, and explains how to allow it in Privacy & Security.

-Nextpad++ brings the Notepad++ editor to the Mac by porting its original codebase rather than wrapping the Windows build in Wine. Familiar features carry over: syntax highlighting for dozens of languages, regular-expression search and find in files, macros, split views, a document map and a plugin system, now with Mac menus, shortcuts, file dialogs and dark mode.
+Nextpad++ runs Notepad++ on a Mac as a native app. Andrey Letov ported the original Windows codebase to Objective-C++ and kept Scintilla as the editing component, which Notepad++ also uses.
-The port is maintained separately from the Windows Notepad++ project. It requires macOS 11 or later, and the project distributes a signed, notarized universal DMG from its website, GitHub releases and Homebrew.
+- Syntax highlighting covers more than 80 languages, with color themes, code folding and user-defined languages.
+- Search handles regular expressions, find in files, incremental search and bookmarked lines.
+- Macros record repetitive edits and play them back.
+- Split view puts two documents, or two parts of one, side by side.
+- The port also keeps the document map, the column editor, a clipboard history panel, the character panel and a command palette.
+
+Mac menus, keyboard shortcuts, file dialogs and dark mode replace the Windows ones, and the interface is translated into 137 languages. Plugins are being ported from the Windows version gradually. A built-in Plugin Admin installs them, and a plugin page on nextpad.org shows which ones already work. The developer says the editor has no telemetry and only goes online when you browse or install plugins through Plugin Admin.
+
+There is no automatic updating. A menu item checks GitHub for a newer version, and you replace the old copy yourself. The download page lists macOS 11 or later, although the 1.1.2 app declares macOS 12 as its minimum. That build is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+Don Ho's Notepad++ is written for Windows and its Win32 API. Nextpad++ is a separate project built on his code, under the same GPL-3.0 license.

-Nimble Commander puts two file panels side by side in the manner of the classic file managers of the 1980s and 1990s, with most work done from the keyboard: moving through folders, copying and moving between panes, and acting on selections without reaching for the mouse. It aims to pair that workflow with the look and feel of a modern Mac app.
+Nimble Commander shows two file panels side by side, and you copy or move items from one to the other without touching the mouse. More than a hundred actions have keyboard shortcuts, following the dual-panel file managers of the 1980s and 1990s.
-The source is published under GPLv3. Current builds are available from the project website, GitHub releases and Homebrew, with a user guide and changelog kept in the repository; earlier releases are archived in a separate repository.
+- Search finds files by attributes or content, or through Spotlight, and the results can fill a panel for you to work on.
+- The viewer shows text or hex and loads only part of a large file, so multi-gigabyte files open.
+- Batch rename builds names from patterns, dates, counters and search and replace.
+- A built-in terminal follows the panel as you navigate, and typing cd moves the panel.
+- Archives open like folders, and FTP, SFTP and WebDAV servers work like local disks.
+- Admin mode gives you root access inside the same panels once you enter administrator credentials.
+
+You can change colors, fonts, hotkeys and most of the layout. A Classic presentation brings back a monospaced, text-mode look.
+
+Version 1.9.0 needs macOS 12 or later. It is a universal app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The README marks Nimble Commander as no longer actively maintained, so later macOS changes may go unfixed. A Mac App Store edition also exists, and the website compares the two editions feature by feature.

-History size and retention are configurable, and favourites do not count toward the limit. The interface is available in Simplified Chinese and English; release builds are provided separately for Apple silicon and Intel Macs.
+- It saves text, links, code, rich text and images, together with the name and icon of the app each item came from.
+- Filters narrow the list to text, links, code or images, and you can favourite items or give them coloured tags.
+- Merge mode joins several text items in the order you pick and pastes them at once.
+- Copied images are indexed with macOS's Vision text recognition, so you can find a screenshot by a word inside it. Older images can be indexed in one batch.
+
+Holding Option over an item shows a full preview, and any item can be pasted as plain text. Copying the same thing twice moves it to the top instead of storing a duplicate. By default the history keeps 500 items for two days; both limits are adjustable, and favourites are never cleaned up automatically. Pasting straight into another app needs the Accessibility permission. Without it Nimclip only copies the item and you press Command-V yourself.
+
+The developer says history stays in a local database on the Mac, with no account and no upload, and that the update check only fetches public release information from GitHub. Paste also syncs its history across Mac, iPhone and iPad. Nimclip stays on one Mac.
+
+Nimclip needs macOS 15 or later. Releases are separate ZIP files for Apple silicon and Intel. The README describes how to open the app if macOS blocks it the first time. The interface switches between Simplified Chinese and English.

-macOS offers no switch to hide the menu bar clock. Nocturne works around that by making the clock unreadable with one click, and can follow your Focus status so that turning on Do Not Disturb on any device also hides the time on your Mac.
+Nocturne takes the time out of your view while you work. The menu bar clock has no visibility checkbox in macOS, so Nocturne switches it to the analog dial, which at menu bar size is too small to read at a glance. Clicking its moon icon opens a menu with the modes, and Nocturne puts the digital clock back when you quit it.
-It requires macOS 14 or later and states that it needs no special permissions or private APIs. Download it from the releases page.
+It has five modes.
+
+- Clock visible leaves the normal clock alone.
+- Blind, the default, turns the clock into the analog dial.
+- Gone draws a patch over the clock. It is marked experimental and can leave a faint seam on the translucent menu bar.
+- Hide everything blanks the whole menu bar except Nocturne's own icon. Clicks still reach the items underneath.
+- Only the clock blanks every icon and leaves the time readable.
+
+An optional hover setting uncovers the bar while the pointer sits on it, in the three covering modes.
+
+Nocturne also works as a Focus filter. In System Settings you add it to a Focus such as Do Not Disturb and pick a mode. When that Focus starts on your Mac, iPhone or Watch, the menu bar follows, and the previous mode returns when it ends. Nocturne's settings also expose the Clock Options switches for the date, the weekday and AM/PM.
+
+The app needs macOS 14 or later and runs natively on Apple silicon and Intel. According to the developer, it asks for no permissions, uses no private APIs and needs no account. The project says the disk image is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. It also installs from the developer's Homebrew tap.

-NodeBox builds graphics from a network of connected nodes. Each node is one operation, such as drawing a shape, repeating or transforming it, or reading rows from a CSV file, and the output updates as you change parameters. Because the whole network stays editable, a design can be reworked rather than redrawn, which suits generative art, data visualization and animation. Results can be exported to PDF or rendered as a movie.
+NodeBox builds graphics from a network of connected nodes. Each node does one thing, such as drawing a path, rotating or repeating it, reading rows from a spreadsheet or arranging points on a grid, and you tune it through its parameters. The network stays editable, so you can rework how a design is made and not only how it looks.
-The code behind every node can be opened and changed, and new nodes can be written in Python or Clojure. Version 3.1 runs natively on Apple silicon, needs macOS 12 or later, bundles its own Java runtime and is signed and notarized. It no longer runs on Intel Macs, which should stay on version 3.0.52. NodeBox is also available for Windows.
+Typical work is generative art, typography and data visualization. Repetition, randomness and changing values turn one network into many variations, and the result exports as PDF files, image sequences or movies, with a choice of frame rate since version 3.2. Documents are saved as .ndbx files.
+
+You can open the code behind any node and change it, and write new nodes in Python, Clojure or Java. Since 3.2, NodeBox caches each node's result and reruns it only when its inputs, parameters or code change, so dragging a parameter on a large network stays smooth. Custom Python or Clojure functions that read the clock, the network or unseeded random numbers need marking as time-dependent to run on every render.
+
+NodeBox Live, from the same website, runs in a browser instead. It also builds designs from connected nodes, takes custom nodes in JavaScript and shares projects online, while NodeBox 3 is the installed app for Mac, Windows and Linux.
+
+The current Mac build needs an Apple silicon Mac and macOS 12 or later, ships with its own Java runtime and is signed and notarized. Intel Macs stay on version 3.0.52.

-Notarize is a macOS tool for developers that monitors the Apple notarization status of their builds. It works with several developer accounts at once, so the status of submissions from different accounts appears in one place. The README describes it as a status monitor for people who submit builds to Apple.
-
-The download is a universal build (arm64 and x86_64) with a minimum of macOS 11.3 according to its Info.plist. It is signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and Gatekeeper accepts it. The last commit is from February 2023.

-NotchPrompter displays text in an always-on-top panel with adjustable scrolling speed, size, font, and position. Voice activation and multiple-display support are available in the project.
+NotchPrompter puts your script at the top of the screen, in the notch area right next to the camera, so you can read it while you film yourself or talk on a call. It stays above other windows. You can also pin it to a corner or drag it anywhere as a floating window, and on a Mac without a notch it sits at the top edge.
-Its custom license permits personal, noncommercial use and prohibits revenue-generating use and inclusion in commercial products. This is a source-available entry, not an open-source license.
+- Voice activation listens through the microphone, scrolling the text while you talk and pausing when you stop.
+- Speed, text size and font are adjustable, and the OpenDyslexic font is built in for easier reading.
+- Global keyboard shortcuts start, stop and control the scrolling.
+- With several monitors you choose the display the prompter appears on.
+
+Version 2.7.0 added a timer, support for multiple scripts and an option to hide the Dock icon. The interface comes in several languages translated with DeepL, and the developer invites corrections.
+
+The developer says the prompter does not show up in screen recordings or in screen sharing tools such as Zoom and Google Meet, and that the app collects no data.
+
+The free download on GitHub, version 2.7.0, is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 14.6 or later; it is not notarized. A newer build is sold once, without a subscription, on the Mac App Store, and buying it there funds the developer.
+
+The site calls NotchPrompter open source, but its license is narrower than that. You may download, run and change the code for your own personal, non-commercial use. Selling or renting it, putting any part of the code into a commercial product or service, using it to earn money, or redistributing it under a different license are all forbidden.

-NotchDrop places a file drop zone around the notch. Keep files there while moving between apps, open them from the shelf, or start an AirDrop transfer.
+NotchDrop turns the area around a MacBook's notch into a short-term shelf for files. You drag a file onto the notch, it waits there while you move between apps, and a click opens it when you need it.
-Files are retained for a configurable period. The source is MIT-licensed, with an App Store download and instructions for building a personal copy.
+- Dropped files are kept for one day by default, and you can change that period in the settings.
+- An AirDrop shortcut sits on the notch itself.
+- Holding Option and clicking the x mark on a file removes it from the shelf.
+- The developer says it should work alongside menu bar managers.
+
+The Mac App Store version is free and lists macOS 13 or later. The project's GitHub releases page also carries builds, most recently 2.16.42 from November 2024. You can build the app yourself with Xcode, too. The README gives an `xcodebuild` command that produces an ad-hoc signed copy, which macOS may block on first launch until you right-click it and choose Open.
+
+The code is MIT-licensed, and the developer calls the project privacy-focused. NotchDrop took its first inspiration from NotchNook, with fewer settings to configure. Developers who want a similar notch in their own apps can use NotchNotification, a separate package from the same author that is built on NotchDrop.

-Notchi turns the notch area into a quick text field. A line can become an Apple Note, a Reminders entry when it contains a time, a question for an AI model, or a larger task passed to a coding-agent CLI working in a chosen folder. A hardware notch is optional.
+Notchi puts an AI prompt in the MacBook notch. You type a line there and the answer appears in place, with a web search when the question calls for one. The last answer stays above the prompt, so a follow-up reads like the next message in one ongoing thread.
-The app is free; AI answers use either Notchi's own prepaid models or your own provider key, local endpoint or signed-in agent CLI. Releases are currently not notarized, so macOS asks for approval on first launch.
+A slash menu changes what a line does:
+
+- Ask sends it to a model as a question.
+- Capture saves it as a note.
+- Remind turns a line with a time in it, such as "call mum tomorrow 9am", into an entry in Reminders.
+- Code hands a project folder to Codex, Claude Code or Cursor, and the collapsed notch tracks the task while it runs.
+
+Answers can include bar charts when the reply is about numbers, and Notchi can run shell commands on your Mac to finish a job, such as measuring a folder with `du`. It suggests a next question and keeps a memory across conversations.
+
+You can connect your own model provider with an API key. The developer says requests then go straight to that provider, that chats and memory stay on your Mac and that no sign-up is needed. Settings → Audit lists every request the app has sent, so you can see for yourself what leaves the machine.
+
+Notchi needs macOS 14 or later and Apple silicon. Releases come as a zip on GitHub, and there is a Homebrew cask in the developer's own tap. The pricing page says copies downloaded before January 1, 2027 stay free, and that after that date it becomes a one-time purchase that includes the hosted models.

-Notchly expands the area around the MacBook notch into an interactive strip. It shows playback controls for Spotify, Apple Music and other sources, battery and charging status, lock screen music controls, and animations when Focus modes change.
+Notchly fills the black space around the MacBook notch with things you check many times a day: what is playing, how much battery is left, and whether a coding agent is waiting on you. Swipe gestures in the notch handle quick interactions.
-It can also surface approval and completion alerts from Codex sessions after a hook is enabled in its settings. The README lists macOS 14.6 or newer, with DMGs on the releases page.
+What it shows:
+
+- Now-playing controls for Spotify, Apple Music and other supported media sources.
+- Battery level and charging state, with a low-battery threshold you set.
+- Music controls on the lock screen.
+- An animation when a Focus mode changes.
+
+With more than one monitor you choose how it behaves on the primary display. Settings also cover launch at login, a lock sound and how long the music preview stays up.
+
+If you work with Codex, Notchly can show an alert in the notch when a session needs your approval or has finished a task. You switch this on under Settings → Codex, choose whether each kind of alert plays a sound, and restart Codex so its local Stop hook can report finished tasks. Controlling Spotify or Apple Music from the notch may prompt macOS to ask for Automation permission.
+
+The project says it collects no personal data. It needs macOS 14.6 or later and ships one DMG that runs on both Apple silicon and Intel Macs. The 1.2.2 build is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple, and Sparkle handles updates.

+Notchprompt is a teleprompter that sits beside the MacBook notch, at the top of the screen. You read your script from there while you give a presentation or record a video.
-A privacy mode attempts to omit the overlay from capture, but its behavior depends on the recording application. The project currently distributes unsigned builds.
+It runs from the menu bar, where it shows up as "NP". You import a plain-text script, start it, and the text scrolls in a small floating panel with its own start, pause, reset and jump-back controls. An optional countdown gives you a moment before the scrolling begins.
+
+- Speed, font size and the panel's width and height are all adjustable.
+- Option-Command shortcuts start and pause the script, reset it, jump back five seconds, change the speed and toggle privacy mode.
+- Scripts can be exported again as plain text.
+- A privacy mode tries to keep the panel out of screen shares and recordings.
+
+That privacy mode relies on a macOS window-sharing setting, and the README calls it best-effort and dependent on the app doing the capturing, so test it with your own recording or meeting software first.
+
+Notchprompt needs macOS 14 or later. The 1.1.3 release has separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel Macs. The builds are not signed or notarized, so macOS may block the first launch; the README explains how to allow it through Privacy & Security.

-NoteGen separates capturing from writing: save text, screenshots, recordings and links first, then shape them into Markdown notes later. Notes live locally, with optional sync through services you configure and local backups.
+NoteGen lets you save a thought, voice recording, screenshot, link, file or todo the moment it turns up, and sort it out later. Filter those records by tag, time or type, pick the ones that belong together, and have them organized into a Markdown summary, report or article that you then edit yourself.
-AI features such as chat, writing help, OCR and knowledge-base search only work after you connect an AI provider and model of your choice, which may send note content to that provider. The Tauri app publishes macOS builds for Apple silicon and Intel on GitHub.
+Notes stay ordinary Markdown files in a workspace folder you choose, so another editor or Git can open them too. The editor handles:
+
+- tables, task lists, code blocks, math and diagrams
+- a source mode next to visual editing
+- attachments, file references and file history
+- a canvas for flowcharts, mind maps, timelines and freehand drawing
+
+AI features work only after you configure a provider and model; you can pick different models for chat, writing, OCR, image recognition and audio. Beyond organizing records, they rewrite or translate text, answer questions from a knowledge base built from your files, and connect to MCP servers.
+
+Sync is optional. It can go through GitHub, GitLab, Gitee, Gitea, S3-compatible storage or WebDAV, and local backups work without any of them. The download page states that no account is required.
+
+The desktop builds are labelled beta. GitHub releases carry separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The download page gives a Terminal command for when macOS calls the app damaged.

-Notepad Next brings the Notepad++ way of working to platforms the original never supported, including the Mac. It is built on the Scintilla editing component that Notepad++ also uses, aiming to give long-time Notepad++ users a familiar editor outside Windows.
+Notepad Next reimplements the Notepad++ text editor, so you can edit text and code in it on a Mac as well as on Linux and Windows. It is written in C++ with Qt, and its editing view comes from the Scintilla component.
-The project is candid that it is still a work in progress: the author describes it as stable and usable, but warns that some features are incomplete and that it should not be trusted with critically important work. macOS disk images are published on the GitHub releases page alongside Windows and Linux builds.
+The README describes the app as stable and usable, but it lists numerous bugs and half-working features, and the author says not to rely on it for critically important work.
+
+Releases on GitHub include separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and a Homebrew tap installs it too. The author does not pay Apple for signing, so macOS can report the app as damaged; the README gives an `xattr` command that clears the quarantine flag. Text can look different from the Windows version because of macOS font smoothing, which a `defaults` command turns off system-wide after a restart.
+
+Notepad++ is written in C++ against the Win32 API and runs in Windows, as its own site describes. Notepad Next is a separate reimplementation built on Qt instead. Translations come from the community through Crowdin.

-Notes is a cross-platform note-taking app built with C++ and Qt. Notes are written in Markdown and organised with nested folders and tags; a feed view shows several notes in sequence, and Markdown task lists can be displayed as a Kanban board. Light, dark and sepia themes are included.
+Notes keeps running in the background and comes forward when you press its global shortcut. It opens a window where you type in Markdown and file the note in a folder. Folders nest, and tags cut across them, so one note can sit in a project folder and still turn up under a tag.
-Editing inside the Kanban view is part of an optional paid Pro license. The most recent tagged release on GitHub, 2.3.1, dates from October 2024 and includes macOS disk images.
+- Markdown task lists can be shown as a Kanban board. The free version shows the board read-only; editing it needs a Pro license.
+- Feed view puts several selected notes one after another in the editor.
+- Light, Dark and Sepia themes are built in.
+- Many actions have keyboard shortcuts, from creating a note to toggling the folder panel.
+
+Notes are plain text kept in a local SQLite database, which on the Mac lives in `~/.config/Awesomeness`. The developers say the app tracks nothing.
+
+The app is written in C++ with Qt and runs on Windows, Linux and macOS. Bear also keeps Markdown notes organized by tags, and it runs on iPhone and iPad as well as the Mac. Notes has no mobile app, and sync is on its list of planned features.
+
+Version 2.3.1 from October 2024 is the latest release. Its main Mac DMG installs an app named Notes Better, Universal for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized, requiring macOS 11 or later.

-Notesnook combines a rich text editor with notebooks, tags, and search. Its clients are designed to synchronize notes with end-to-end encryption.
+Notesnook encrypts each note on your Mac before it syncs, so the same notes reach your other devices without the server being able to read them. You write in a rich text editor, and file notes into notebooks and tags.
-The application source is open, while the hosted service offers different plan limits. Review those limits if you need particular editors or larger storage allowances.
+- The editor handles tables, code blocks, math, images and attachments; checklists, outlines, callouts and Markdown shortcuts need a paid plan.
+- Notes link to each other, and each note shows what links back to it.
+- A vault puts a second password on selected notes, and an app lock guards the whole app.
+- Paid plans let reminders repeat, and a single note can be published as a web page, with a password if you like.
+- A web clipper saves pages into your notes, and an importer reads Evernote, Google Keep, Obsidian and Joplin exports on your device.
+
+The encryption uses XChaCha20-Poly1305 with Argon2. The desktop app works offline and syncs changes once you reconnect. Syncing needs a Notesnook account. The free plan keeps unlimited notes on unlimited devices, while paid plans add attachment storage, larger files and higher limits on notebooks and tags. The client apps and the sync server are both open source under the GPLv3, and the server can be self-hosted.
+
+The README calls Notesnook an end-to-end encrypted alternative to Evernote, and its importer also takes notes from Google Keep. The difference the project stresses is that each note is encrypted on your Mac before upload, and that the code for both the apps and the server is public. The Mac download page has separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, and the 3.4.12 Apple silicon app is signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-noTunes intercepts attempts to launch Apple Music or iTunes, such as those triggered by reconnecting headphones. A menu bar control lets you enable or disable the behavior.
+noTunes keeps Apple Music, or iTunes on older systems, from launching. Start noTunes once and the Music app stays shut when something tries to open it, such as Bluetooth headphones reconnecting.
-You can configure a replacement application or website for those launch attempts. The upstream instructions explain startup behavior and how to restore normal launches.
+A left click on the menu bar icon turns the blocking on or off, and the icon changes to show which. You can hide the icon from its right-click menu.

+
+Blocking Music can also open something else. A single `defaults write` command sets the replacement: an app in the Applications folder, or a web address such as YouTube Music. Deleting that key turns the replacement off.
+
+The app does not add itself to Login Items. To have it running after every restart, add it under System Settings > General > Login Items.
+
+Version 3.5 is a ZIP containing a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it needs macOS 10.14.6 or later. noTunes is free under the MIT license.

-Nuclear combines music search, queues, and playlists in a desktop listening app. Its source integrations provide a way to explore online audio from one interface.
+Type a song, album or artist into Nuclear's search and it streams the track from whichever source its plugins find. When several candidates turn up for a queued track, you can see the list and switch to a different one.
-Availability depends on the upstream services and integrations. Choose the macOS package that matches your processor on the release page.
+Almost everything runs through plugins. They supply streaming sources, metadata, playlists and dashboard content, and a built-in store installs them. Around that sit the usual library tools:
+
+- an artist's biography, discography and related artists on one page, plus album track listings
+- a play queue you can shuffle, repeat and reorder by dragging tracks
+- favorites, and playlists you build or import from other services and JSON files
+- synced lyrics, a local listening history with charts, and built-in or custom CSS themes
+
+Two features reach outside the window. Nuclear Jam shows a QR code that lets a phone or tablet on your network control playback. An optional MCP server, switched on under Settings, lets an AI agent such as Claude Code drive the player. The README says the player has no ads or tracking.
+
+What you can play depends on the sources the installed plugins reach. The release page has separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The site warns that macOS may block the app from opening and gives a Terminal command that clears the quarantine flag. The app is built with Tauri and updates itself.

-oats records meetings from the menu bar and turns them into transcripts with speaker labels and a Markdown summary, keeping everything in a searchable library. There is no meeting bot to invite; it captures audio on your Mac.
+oats records a meeting from the menu bar and hands you a transcript with speaker labels and a Markdown summary when you stop. You start, pause and stop recording from the menu bar icon, and nothing joins the call as a bot.
-You choose between the free Ariso cloud backend, which requires signing in, and a local mode that transcribes and summarises offline without an account. The project lists macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon; installers are linked from its site and README, with a Homebrew tap in the repository.
+On first launch you pick where the work happens, under Settings, Transcription Backend:
+
+- Ariso, the default, streams audio to Ariso's servers for real-time transcription. It needs you to sign in, stores past meetings for later viewing and sharing, and handles several languages.
+- Local records, transcribes and writes the notes on the Mac, with no login. Transcription runs through Core ML on the Neural Engine, and an on-device language model writes the summary.
+- Local needs a one-time download of a speech model and a language model from Settings, On-device models. After that it works offline, without multi-language support.
+
+Both modes are free. In Local mode each meeting lands in `~/.ariso/recordings/` as `recording.mp3`, `transcript.md` and `ari-note.md`, and a library in the app keeps every recording, transcript and note. The developer says Ariso does not train models on cloud transcripts.
+
+oats needs macOS 14.4 or later on Apple silicon; the app inside the DMG is built for arm64 only. The DMG is signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and the app updates itself. It also installs from a Homebrew cask kept in the repository. A Windows 11 build is in preview.
+
+Granola also takes meeting audio from your computer with no bot and writes notes from it, with apps for iPhone and Android as well. Its free plan limits work on notes older than 30 days. oats is MIT-licensed and can run without any account.

-OBS Studio combines video, screen captures, audio and other sources into scenes for recording or live streaming. Use a simple capture setup or build a more involved production.
+OBS Studio records and streams whatever you arrange in a scene. You stack sources such as a window capture, a webcam, a capture card, an image, text or a browser window, then record the result to a file or broadcast it live.
-Audio mixing, transitions and extensibility make it adaptable to demonstrations and broadcasts. Check the official macOS installation guidance and capture permissions before recording.
+- You can keep as many scenes as you like and switch between them with transitions, including your own stinger video.
+- The audio mixer gives each source its own filters, for example gain, a noise gate or noise suppression, and accepts VST plugins.
+- Hotkeys cover nearly every action: changing scenes, starting or stopping a stream or recording, muting a source and push to talk.
+- Studio Mode shows the next scene in a preview so you can adjust it before viewers see it.
+- The interface is built from docks that you can rearrange or pop out into separate windows.
+
+Multiview puts eight scenes on screen at once, so you can watch them all and cue or cut to one with a click or a double click. When the built-in features run out, native plugins and Lua or Python scripts can work with your existing sources.
+
+The Mac download comes as two disk images, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel. Version 33.0.1 needs macOS 13 or later, and the app is notarized by Apple. OBS Studio is free, licensed under the GPL version 2 or any later version.

-Ollama manages local language models and makes them available through its desktop interface and API. It can support both direct chat and other applications that connect to the local service.
+Ollama downloads open-weight language models and runs them on your Mac. Pick a model in the app window and chat with it, or type `ollama run` followed by a model name in Terminal. Both talk to a local server that other software can call.
-The application license does not replace the licenses of downloaded models. Memory and storage requirements vary substantially between models.
+- Chat window: drop text files and PDFs into a conversation, and send images to models that accept them.
+- Local API: the server listens on port 11434 of your own machine only, unless you change the `OLLAMA_HOST` setting. It answers its own API as well as OpenAI- and Anthropic-style requests.
+- Connections: the Apps screen hooks Ollama models into desktop chat clients and coding agents.
+- Context length: a settings control raises the context window for long documents, at the cost of more memory.
+
+It needs macOS 14 Sonoma or later. Apple silicon Macs use both CPU and GPU; Intel Macs run models on the CPU only. Downloaded models live in `~/.ollama` and can take tens to hundreds of gigabytes. The largest run slowly without a strong GPU.
+
+LM Studio also downloads and runs models with a local server, but it is closed source. Ollama's code is MIT-licensed, and each model you download keeps its own license.
+
+Local use needs no account. Cloud-hosted models are also offered; they require signing in and usage credits or a paid plan. The developer states that it does not see prompts from local models, and that cloud prompts are processed but not stored or used for training.

-OmniWM combines scrolling window containers with a split-based tiling layout, selectable per workspace. It includes multi-monitor routing and optional local automation commands.
+OmniWM arranges your windows for you as they open, and you move between them from the keyboard. Option and a number from 1 to 9 switches workspace; adding Shift sends the focused window there.
-The current application targets Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 26 or later. Review its compatibility guide when choosing a window manager for an older system.
+Each workspace uses one of two layouts, and Option-Shift-L toggles between them. The Niri-style layout puts windows in columns on a strip that scrolls sideways, or in rows that scroll vertically on a monitor in portrait orientation. The Dwindle layout splits the screen into a binary tree, the way Hyprland does on Linux.
+
+- A command palette searches windows, app menus, clipboard history, applications and files.
+- A Quake-style terminal built on Ghostty opens over any workspace with Option and the backtick key.
+- Scratchpads and sticky windows work with any app.
+- The `omniwmctl` command and a local IPC interface drive it from scripts.
+- An overview, a workspace bar and a window switcher with previews round it out.
+
+OmniWM runs only on Apple silicon with macOS 26 or later, and System Integrity Protection stays on. It needs the Accessibility and Input Monitoring permissions, and "Displays have separate Spaces" must be turned on in Mission Control settings. Screen Recording is optional and feeds overview thumbnails and drag previews. Hiding status-bar icons needs macOS 27. The release ZIP holds an arm64 app, Developer ID-signed and notarized. It checks for updates once a day but never installs one by itself.
+
+Configuration is a TOML file in `~/.config/omniwm`, and OmniWM picks up changes as soon as the file is saved.

-OnionShare starts a temporary Tor onion service on your own computer and gives you an address to pass on. The other person opens it in Tor Browser to download files, upload files to you, view a static website or join an anonymous chat, and nothing is stored on a third-party server.
+OnionShare runs a small web server on your Mac and publishes it as a Tor onion service. You copy the .onion address and its private key, send both over a channel you trust, and the other person opens the address in Tor Browser. Each job gets its own tab:
-Sharing only works while the app is running. The macOS disk image is published on the official site and in the project's GitHub releases; the separate onionshare-cli is also available.
+- A share tab sends files and folders. By default the service shuts down after the first complete download; unticking that option lets several people download and pick single files.
+- A receive tab turns the Mac into an anonymous drop box for files, text messages or both. By default, submissions go to an OnionShare folder in your home folder, sorted by upload time, and a webhook can alert you.
+- A website tab serves static HTML, CSS, JavaScript and images. Server-side code and databases are not supported, so WordPress will not run.
+- A chat tab opens a room where everyone gets a random name. The documentation says nothing in the room is logged.
+
+Version 2.7 added a download mode for fetching another OnionShare share inside the app. The macOS disk image is on the official site, signed with a PGP signature you can check, and Homebrew installs it as a cask.
+
+Your computer is the server, so the address stops answering when you quit OnionShare or the Mac sleeps. For a drop box or site that should stay up, the documentation recommends a separate computer that is always on. Uploads arrive as they are: OnionShare does nothing to defend against malicious files, and its documentation suggests Dangerzone for converting untrusted documents into safe PDFs.

-ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors groups document, spreadsheet, and presentation editing in one application. It supports working with local office files and connecting to supported collaboration services.
+ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors opens Word, Excel and PowerPoint files from your Mac as tabs in one app and edits them without an internet connection. Office Open XML (.docx, .xlsx and .pptx) is its working format. It also converts formats such as ODT, RTF, EPUB, ODS, CSV and ODP.
-The desktop editor source is published under the AGPL with additional notices in its license. Hosted services and enterprise offerings are separate products.
+- The PDF editor edits PDFs and fills in PDF forms, and the form creator builds new forms.
+- Diagram files open in a viewer, without editing.
+- Documents can carry digital signatures and password protection.
+- Plugins and AI assistants add functions to the editors.
+
+You can connect the app to a cloud such as ONLYOFFICE, Nextcloud, ownCloud, Seafile, Box or Dropbox and edit shared files together with other people. The interface comes in 46 languages and handles right-to-left text.
+
+Microsoft Office uses these file formats natively and is sold as part of Microsoft 365. ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors is free to download and licensed under the AGPL v3. The download page offers separate builds for Intel and Apple chips, both for macOS 10.13 or later, and an older build for macOS 10.12 and below.

-OnlySwitch gathers controls such as desktop-icon visibility, appearance, and keeping the Mac awake. Reorder the switches and add shortcuts to keep common actions close at hand.
+OnlySwitch collects dozens of small Mac toggles into one menu bar list, so you do not need a separate utility for each. Click its icon and you can hide desktop icons, switch dark mode, keep the Mac awake, show hidden files, empty the Trash or mute the microphone. You choose which switches appear and in what order, and you can bind any of them to a keyboard shortcut.
-The app includes optional features and widgets beyond the basic controls. Choose only the integrations you need and follow the project's setup guidance for them.
+Beyond the switches, optional tabs add larger tools:
+
+- Sound Mixer sets volume per app, and on macOS 14.4 or later adds a 10-band equalizer and output routing for each app.
+- Brightness controls external monitors over DDC/CI, with a software overlay when hardware control fails.
+- Schedules run switches or Shortcuts at set times, for example emptying the Trash every Saturday morning.
+- Xcode Cleaner scans caches such as DerivedData, and App Uninstaller finds an app's related files; both ask you to confirm before anything is removed.
+
+Evolution lets you build your own switches and buttons from shell or AppleScript code. Each script must pass a test before it can be saved. You can also import macOS Shortcuts, place controls on the desktop as widgets, or drive the Mac from an iPhone with the OnlyRemote companion app. Some newer features, such as Only Agent, which writes AppleScript from a typed request, need macOS 26 and an AI provider you set up yourself.
+
+The current release needs macOS 14 or later. The downloaded DMG is notarized by Apple. Versions 2.5.6 and older cannot update themselves, so install a fresh copy if you are still on one.

-Open in Code is a tiny app meant to live in the Finder toolbar. Clicking it opens Visual Studio Code on whatever Finder is showing: a selected folder, the folder containing a selected file, or the front window's location. If the stable editor is not installed it falls back to VS Code Insiders.
+Open in Code sits in the Finder toolbar and opens Visual Studio Code on the folder you are looking at. Click it and VS Code opens with the right workspace, with no Terminal command and no browsing to the folder a second time.
-It has no window of its own; you add it by Command-dragging the app into the toolbar. Version 2.0, released in 2026, requires macOS 12 or later and is available from GitHub releases or the author's Homebrew tap.
+What opens depends on what Finder shows:
+
+- A selected folder opens as itself.
+- A selected file or package opens its enclosing folder.
+- With several items selected, the first one decides.
+- With nothing selected, the front Finder window's folder opens.
+
+To set it up, open the Applications folder and Command-drag the app into the Finder toolbar. Command-dragging the button again moves or removes it. The first click makes macOS ask whether Open in Code may control Finder, which it needs to read the selection. If you refused, turn it back on under Privacy & Security, Automation on macOS 13 or later, or under Security & Privacy on macOS 12.
+
+You need Visual Studio Code or VS Code Insiders installed. The app prefers the stable editor and uses Insiders when only that one is present.
+
+Version 2.0 requires macOS 12 or later and is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. It comes as a ZIP from GitHub releases or as a cask from the author's Homebrew tap. The code is MIT-licensed.

+Open Video Downloader, still named youtube-dl-gui on GitHub, puts a window in front of yt-dlp. Add a video or playlist link, choose the resolution, frame rate and a format such as MP4 or MKV, and queue it. Progress and errors for each download appear in the app.
-The current version is built with Tauri, Rust and Vue, and both the app and yt-dlp keep themselves up to date. macOS builds are on GitHub releases and in Homebrew as a cask.

+- Whole playlists download in one go.
+- Output folders and filenames follow presets or your own templates.
+- Sign-in works through browser cookie files, basic authentication or video passwords.
+
+The queue spreads several downloads out so the Mac stays responsive. The app updates itself and its copy of yt-dlp automatically, follows the system's light or dark mode, and has shortcuts for queueing videos, with notifications for progress.
+
+Another desktop downloader, 4K Video Downloader Plus, also fetches video from many sites, with a free Starter plan and paid licenses above it. Open Video Downloader is open source under AGPL-3.0, and every download goes through yt-dlp.

+Write and annotate an OpenBoard lesson with a pen tablet, an interactive whiteboard or a mouse. You can present on the whiteboard, use a pen display beside a projector, or work on a plain computer screen.
-Its desktop application is built for classroom and presentation use, with page management for preparing material before a session.
+In Documents mode, page thumbnails can be dragged to reorder them, and pages can be duplicated. You can import PDFs and images, including WebP, and export a document as a PDF.
+
+The current release, 1.7.7, supports macOS 12 or later on Intel and Apple silicon and ships as a single disk image. Older versions for systems such as macOS 10.12 stay on the GitHub releases page. There is no registration step. Community translators have brought the interface to 35 languages.
+
+The code descends from Open-Sankoré 2.0, which grew out of Uniboard, software the University of Lausanne first wrote in 2003. The Education Department of the canton of Geneva now maintains OpenBoard, which is licensed under GPLv3 with a linking exception for OpenSSL.
+
+Web widgets are small websites placed directly on the board. OpenBoard includes a web inspector for debugging them, and the project wiki explains how to turn an existing site into a widget.

-OpenClip shows a compact bar of actions next to text you select, in the spirit of PopClip. Built-in actions change case, search, copy, and evaluate math, and a hotkey opens a searchable palette of every action.
+OpenClip puts a small bar of actions next to whatever text you select, in any app. From that bar you can change the case of the selection, search for it, copy or cut it, work out a math expression, or hand it to a script.

-OpenCode is an AI coding agent that reads a project, plans changes, edits files and runs commands on your behalf. It ships two built-in agents you can switch between: a full-access one for development work and a read-only one for exploring an unfamiliar codebase, which asks before running shell commands.
+OpenCode works through a coding task with you: it reads the project, edits files and runs shell commands. You type a request in its terminal interface or in the desktop app, choose which actions run on their own and which wait for your approval, and roll back recent changes with `/undo`.
-Most people drive it from the terminal, but the project also publishes a desktop application, still marked beta, with separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads on its releases page and a Homebrew cask (`opencode-desktop`). The command-line version installs through Homebrew, npm or the project's install script.
+Two built-in agents share the session, and Tab switches between them. Build has full access and is the default. Plan is for reading and planning: it refuses file edits unless you allow them and asks before any shell command runs. A third agent, general, handles longer searches and multistep jobs, and you can call it with `@general`.
+
+The desktop app adds sessions in tabs, diff views, a built-in browser and plugins. It is still labelled beta. Releases include separate DMG and ZIP files for Apple silicon and Intel, and there is a Homebrew cask, `opencode-desktop`. The terminal version installs with Homebrew, npm or an install script that places it in `~/.opencode/bin`. A mobile app lets you start and steer sessions away from the Mac.
+
+Models are your choice. OpenCode ships with a set of free models you can use without creating an account. Beyond those, it reaches more than 200 providers through Models.dev, local models included, and you can log in with a ChatGPT Plus or Pro or GitHub Copilot subscription you already pay for. MCP servers, plugins and SKILL.md files add tools and workflows to the agents.
+
+Claude Code is Anthropic's agent for the same job of reading, editing and running code in your project, and most of its versions need a Claude subscription or an Anthropic Console account. OpenCode is MIT-licensed, and its free models let you start without signing up anywhere.

-OpenDisplay creates a virtual monitor on the Mac and streams it to a receiver, so the other device behaves like a real extended display you can arrange in System Settings. iPhones and iPads can connect by cable or Wi-Fi and accept touch input for clicking, dragging and scrolling; mirroring is available too.
+OpenDisplay turns an iPhone, iPad or spare Mac into a second monitor for your Mac. The sending Mac creates a virtual display, which you arrange in System Settings and drag windows onto, and streams it to the receiving device. A mirroring mode is there when you want a copy of the main screen instead.
-Another Mac can act as the screen using the separate OpenDisplay Receiver app. It is a free alternative to Sidecar or subscription display apps; the README documents device and macOS requirements.
+- Over USB, the stream runs through the Lightning or USB-C cable with no network involved. The cable must carry data; a charge-only cable does not work.
+- On Wi-Fi, the iPhone or iPad announces itself over Bonjour and you pick it from a menu on the Mac. Both sides need the Local Network permission.
+- The virtual display matches the device's panel at 2x, and rotating the device rebuilds it as a portrait monitor.
+- On the device, a tap clicks, a drag drags and two fingers scroll.
+
+A Mac that should act as the screen runs the separate OpenDisplay Receiver app, which needs macOS 12 or later. It connects over Wi-Fi, Thunderbolt, Ethernet or, on recent macOS, a USB-C data cable.
+
+The Mac app needs macOS 14, and the iOS receiver needs iOS or iPadOS 15. The iOS app is distributed through TestFlight or built from source. The Mac app relies on a private CoreGraphics API, so it ships as a DMG on GitHub, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and updates itself. While it runs, macOS shows the screen recording indicator and hides notifications by default, as it does for any app capturing the screen. Apple's Sidecar avoids the indicator only because it is part of macOS itself.

-OpenEmu organizes supported games in a Mac library interface and launches them through emulator cores. Controller setup and per-system organization help unify several emulated platforms.
+OpenEmu turns backups of games you already own into a single library on the Mac. Drag a ROM file onto the window, and OpenEmu scans it, files it under the right console and adds the box art. Then you pick a game and play.
-The application code uses BSD-style licensing, while bundled cores have their own licenses. Game files are supplied separately from the application.
+Each console runs on a core, a separate emulation engine loaded as a plug-in. The README lists about thirty systems this way:
+
+- Atari consoles from the 2600 to the Lynx, through Stella, Atari800, ProSystem and Mednafen.
+- Nintendo systems from the NES to the GameCube and DS, with Snes9x or bsnes for the Super Nintendo and Dolphin for the GameCube.
+- Sega hardware from the SG-1000 to the Saturn, mostly through Genesis Plus.
+- The PlayStation and PSP, through Mednafen and PPSSPP, plus rarer machines such as the Vectrex, Virtual Boy and WonderSwan.
+
+Collections can mix games from different consoles. The keyboard works, though the project recommends a gamepad. Any generic HID-compliant USB or Bluetooth gamepad should work, and devices in OpenEmu's database get their buttons mapped automatically.
+
+The app needs macOS 10.14.4 or later and updates itself through Sparkle. The current release, 2.4.1, is Intel-only, and the website links special instructions for opening it the first time. The OpenEmu front end is under a BSD 3-clause license. You supply the games yourself.

-OpenInTerminal adds a Finder toolbar button and menu bar item that open the current folder or selection in a terminal such as Terminal, iTerm2, Ghostty or kitty, or in an editor such as VS Code, Sublime Text or Xcode. Custom apps are supported, and the full version adds a preferences window and keyboard shortcuts.
+OpenInTerminal saves the step of opening a terminal and typing `cd` to reach the folder you are looking at in Finder. Click its Finder toolbar button, its menu bar item or a context menu entry, and the current folder or selected file opens in the terminal or editor you picked.
-Two minimal companions, OpenInTerminal-Lite and OpenInEditor-Lite, skip the preferences window and do one job each from the Finder toolbar. They are published on GitHub releases, and the main app and OpenInTerminal-Lite are also Homebrew casks.
+The list of supported apps is long. On the terminal side it covers Terminal, iTerm, Alacritty, kitty, WezTerm, Warp, Tabby, Hyper and Ghostty. For editors there are TextEdit, Xcode, VS Code, VSCodium, Sublime Text, BBEdit, Nova, Cursor, the JetBrains IDEs, Zed and Emacs, among others. You can also add other apps, such as a Git client, although the project warns that not every app accepts this.
+
+The full app has a preferences window and global keyboard shortcuts, which you can limit to work only when Finder is in front. It can also copy the current path with escaping and group its context menu items into a submenu. Two smaller companions, OpenInTerminal-Lite and OpenInEditor-Lite, drop the settings and keyboard shortcuts and simply open one app with a single click from the toolbar.
+
+None of the three apps is signed any more, so on first launch you have to clear the quarantine flag or approve the app in Privacy & Security. On macOS 15 and later, the Finder extension also has to be switched on by hand before its menu items appear. Version 2.3.9 fixed a command injection flaw triggered by crafted folder names, so stay on a current release.

-macOS has no built-in way to browse an Android phone's storage over USB, and OpenMTP fills that gap. It shows the Mac and the device side by side, so files and folders can be copied in either direction by drag and drop, with a choice between internal memory and an SD card and keyboard shortcuts for navigation.
+OpenMTP copies files between your Mac and an Android phone, camera or other device that speaks MTP over a USB cable. Unlock the phone and choose File transfer in its USB notification. The Mac and the device then appear side by side, and you drag files across or copy and paste with Command-C and Command-V.
-Separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads are published on GitHub and the project website, and a Homebrew cask is available.
+- Files larger than 4 GB copy, several at a time.
+- Files and folders on the phone can be renamed.
+- A Storage button switches between internal memory and an SD card.
+- Grid or list view, dark mode and keyboard shortcuts cover navigation.
+
+Since version 3.0 it uses Kalam, an MTP kernel written for the app. The project quotes between 20 and 30 MB/s for budget and mid-range phones, and between 100 and 120 MB/s for high-end models. Every transfer needs the cable, as there is no Wi-Fi mode. If the window stays blank, quit apps that read USB devices, such as Preview or Android File Transfer. On Samsung phones, uninstall Smart Switch.
+
+OpenMTP requires macOS 10.14 or later, and Kalam updates reach only macOS 11 and later. Macs on 10.13 or earlier need version 3.1.15 in Legacy MTP mode. Separate Apple silicon and Intel builds are published, and the Apple silicon DMG holds a Developer ID-signed, notarized app. Copycat sites use the OpenMTP name. The official sources are the project site, the GitHub repository and the Homebrew cask.

+Google's Android File Transfer covers the same job of moving files between a Mac and an Android phone over USB.

-OpenOats listens to your microphone and system audio during a call and produces a live transcript of both speakers using speech models that run locally. When the conversation reaches a question or decision, it searches a folder of your notes and suggests relevant points, using a language model of your choice: local through Ollama, or cloud models through OpenRouter or Requesty.
+OpenOats sits beside a call and writes down what both sides say as they say it. Press Live, and it captures your microphone and the system audio, transcribing both speakers on the Mac. When the talk reaches a question or a decision point, it searches your notes and shows talking points that fit.
-Sessions are saved automatically as plain-text transcripts. The project lists an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 14.2 or later as a requirement, and reminds users that recording conversations may require participants' consent.
+- Your notes are folders of Markdown or plain-text files. OpenOats splits them into chunks, embeds them and caches the index locally.
+- Suggestions come from a language model you pick: cloud models through OpenRouter or Requesty, or local ones through Ollama.
+- Embeddings can come from Voyage AI, Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, such as llama.cpp or vLLM.
+- Every session is saved as a plain-text transcript in `~/Documents/OpenOats/`. By default the window does not show up in screen shares.
+
+With Ollama handling both suggestions and embeddings, the developer says nothing leaves the Mac. In cloud mode, text from your notes and the transcript goes to the chosen providers, never audio, and API keys sit in the Keychain. The first run downloads a local speech model of about 600 MB.
+
+Granola also uses the computer's audio instead of a meeting bot, writes notes and actions, and runs on macOS, Windows, iOS and Android. OpenOats instead searches your own files for talking points while the call is still going.
+
+OpenOats needs an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 14.2 or later. The 1.90.0 DMG holds an arm64 app that is notarized. Before the first recording, the app asks you to acknowledge that some places require every participant's consent.

-OpenQuack sits in the menu bar and turns speech into text wherever you can type. A hotkey starts and stops recording, and speech recognition runs locally through WhisperKit, so dictation does not need an account or a cloud service by default.
+OpenQuack types what you say into whatever text field has the cursor. Press the hotkey, Control-Shift-Space by default, speak, and press it again. The transcript is pasted in place, or left on the clipboard if you prefer to paste it yourself.
-An optional on-device polish step can tidy transcripts, with an editable prompt. The current 2.0 line is published as alpha releases, so expect rough edges and frequent changes.
+Recognition runs on the Mac through WhisperKit, an Apple silicon port of OpenAI's Whisper. The model stays on disk until you press the hotkey.
+

+- Recording can stop by itself after a stretch of silence.
+- An experimental polish pass, off by default, runs a small on-device model over the text, with a prompt you can edit in Settings.
+

-OpenRCT2 recreates the RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 engine and adds ongoing improvements. It supports park building and management through the familiar simulation interface.
+OpenRCT2 lets you build and run an amusement park in RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 on a reimplemented engine. You lay out rides, shops and facilities, then try to turn a profit and keep guests happy without losing the park's reputation.
-Original game data is normally required and is obtained separately. The project provides macOS builds and installation instructions.
+Scenarios set an objective and a time limit. Sandbox mode is looser, and you can play it with no restrictions and no finances at all.
+
+The project aims to cover everything the original game did and add to it:
+
+- An improved interface and better guest and staff AI.
+- More editing tools and higher limits.
+- Cooperative multiplayer.
+- Mechanics from the first RollerCoaster Tycoon that the sequel dropped, such as the in-game mountain tool and launched coasters.
+
+The game needs the original RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 files, which you buy separately on Steam or GOG.com. Data from the first game with its expansions also works, which opens up the older scenarios.
+
+The macOS download is a ZIP holding a Universal app. It runs on macOS 10.14 or later on Intel Macs and macOS 11 or later on Apple silicon. A separate launcher can keep the game updated for you.
+
+Chris Sawyer wrote RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 in x86 assembly on an engine that grew out of Transport Tycoon. That older game has its own open-source counterpart, OpenTTD.

-OpenRocket describes a model rocket through components, dimensions, and selected motors. Simulations help compare how design changes affect predicted flight behavior.
+OpenRocket lets you put a model rocket together on screen, from nose cone to fins, choose a motor and fly it in simulation before you cut a single part. Stability, center of pressure, center of gravity and predicted peak altitude update while you edit, so each change shows its effect at once.
-It is a planning and learning tool for model rocketry. Simulation results depend on the accuracy of the design and environmental inputs.
+- Flights are simulated with six degrees of freedom, and wind can be set separately for different altitudes.
+- Motors come from a ThrustCurve database that you can search and filter for ones that fit the design.
+- Rockets can have several stages, clustered motors and dual deployment events.
+- An optimizer adjusts chosen parameters toward a goal you set.
+- Designs export to RockSim and RASAero II. Single parts export as OBJ files for a 3D printer or SVG files for a laser cutter, and drawings as PDF.
+
+Parts come from a large catalog of components and materials, or you define your own and save them for later. Surface finish and material density both feed the model. Simulation results can be plotted and exported.
+
+The project says OpenRocket sends no telemetry and never uploads designs. It goes online for things you ask for, such as update checks, motor database updates and bug reports, and internet access can be switched off in preferences.
+
+The app is written in Java, and the macOS installers bundle the Java runtime it needs. Apple silicon and Intel Macs get separate DMGs. The Apple silicon build of 24.12 requires macOS 10.15 or later and is notarized.

-OpenSCAD turns a text description of shapes and operations into a 3D model. Parameters make it straightforward to vary dimensions and regenerate related designs.
+OpenSCAD builds 3D models from code. You type a script in the editor on the left, press F5, and the rendered object appears in the viewer on the right. Change a number in the script, render again, and the part takes the new size.
-It is useful for mechanical parts and repeatable designs, especially when exact relationships matter more than sculpting by hand.
+That makes it a fit for machine parts and other designs defined by measurements, where you want to tweak any step or produce variants from configurable parameters. There is no dragging or sculpting of geometry by hand; the script is the model.
+
+The language and file support cover:
+
+- Constructive solid geometry: primitives such as cylinders and spheres are combined by union, intersection and difference.
+- Transformations like translate, rotate and scale place each piece.
+- Extrusion turns 2D outlines into solids, with DXF files as the exchange format for those outlines.
+- DXF files can also supply design parameters, and STL and OFF files can be read and written.
+
+The stable release on the downloads page is an Intel build for OS X 10.9 or later. Development snapshots are Universal apps for Apple silicon and Intel and need macOS 12 Monterey or later. The snapshot DMG is notarized, and in Preferences you can turn on the newer Manifold geometry engine for faster rendering. You can also install OpenSCAD through MacPorts, or the snapshot through Homebrew.
+
+Source files carry the GPL version 2 or later, with an extra permission to link against the CGAL library.

-OpenShot offers a drag-and-drop editing workspace for combining footage, music, and titles. Multiple tracks and keyframe controls allow more involved compositions as a project grows.
+OpenShot edits video on a timeline. Drag clips, images and audio onto as many tracks as you need, then trim, cut, scale and rotate them. Transitions preview in real time, and you can step through a clip frame by frame.
-It is a practical starting point for making presentations, short videos, and simple edits from an existing media collection.
+- Keyframe animation uses curves, and time-mapping plays clips faster, slower or backwards.
+- Text comes from title templates, SVG titles, 3D animated titles and scrolling credits.
+- Effects include brightness, gamma, hue, greyscale and chroma key, plus compositing with overlays and watermarks.
+- Audio mixing and editing are built in.
+
+Import and rendering go through FFmpeg, so common video, audio and image formats work, and timelines can be exchanged as EDL or XML. Version 4.1 added editing text directly on the video, automatic optimisation of footage at 4K and above, and a command-line interface.
+
+The Mac download page offers a 64-bit Intel disk image, with daily builds listed below it for testing new changes.
+
+Final Cut Pro, Apple's editor, is a paid App Store purchase or part of an Apple subscription, and it runs on Mac and iPad. OpenShot is free under the GPL, version 3 or later, and also runs on Linux and Windows.

-OpenToonz provides a production-oriented workspace for drawn animation. Arrange drawings over time, manage levels, and combine elements through its effects and compositing tools.
+OpenToonz takes 2D animation from drawings to finished footage. You draw or bring in artwork, time it on an exposure sheet or a timeline, paint it, and composite the shots with effects.
-It supports workflows that mix scanned artwork and digital drawing. Official releases include a macOS installer.
+The software grew out of Toonz, made by Digital Video in Rome. Studio Ghibli customised its own version over many years for ink and paint, colour design and compositing, and Dwango published that code as OpenToonz.
+
+- Both raster and vector drawings, with anti-aliased lines.
+- Painting data is kept apart from the palette, so you can fill with provisional colours and change them later.
+- Effects are wired together in a node tree, and a plug-in SDK lets anyone add new ones.
+- Images keep their real-world scale, set by resolution in dpi and units such as millimetres.
+- Coloured, binarised TGA sequences convert to and from the OpenToonz format, for studios with an existing pipeline.
+
+Version 1.8 reworked many drawing tools, including the assistant, brush, fill and tape tools. The GTS scanning tool from Studio Ghibli runs on Windows only.
+
+On the Mac, the 1.8 installer is a PKG holding an Intel (x86_64) app. The site lists macOS 10.14 Mojave or later, 4 GB of RAM and a 1280 by 1024 display. Nightly builds and older versions are on the releases page. The project warns that its only official sites are opentoonz.github.io and the GitHub repository.
+
+Moho approaches 2D animation through bone rigging, with inverse kinematics and physics for posing characters, and is sold under a perpetual license. OpenToonz centres on the exposure sheet and compositing, under the BSD license, free for commercial and non-commercial work.

-OpenTTD is a transport management game in which players connect towns and industries using trains, roads, ships, and aircraft. It supports both solo play and multiplayer sessions.
+OpenTTD has you run a transport company. You lay rail, roads, canals and airports between towns and industries, then buy trains, buses, ships and aircraft and give them orders to carry passengers and cargo.
-Free replacement graphics and sound sets are available for playing without original Transport Tycoon files. The project provides a macOS application.
+It is based on Transport Tycoon Deluxe by Chris Sawyer and stays close to it, with many additions:
+
+- maps up to 64 times the original size
+- multiplayer with as many as 255 players sharing 15 companies, and dedicated servers
+- path-based signals, presignals and conditional orders
+- autoreplace and cloning for vehicles, and stations you can join together
+- AI opponents written by players
+
+The game needs graphics and sound sets. The free OpenGFX graphics, OpenSFX sounds and OpenMSX music fill that gap, or you can copy the data files from a Transport Tycoon Deluxe CD. AIs, NewGRF add-ons, scenarios and heightmaps download inside the game through Check Online Content. Every version loads saved games from every older one.
+
+Version 15.3 for the Mac is a universal app, offered as a disk image or a ZIP. The download page lists macOS 10.15 for Intel and macOS 11 for Apple silicon. The app is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. OpenTTD is also free on Steam and GOG.

-Orange uses a canvas of connected widgets to describe an analysis workflow. Load a dataset, inspect it, transform it, and compare results without writing each step as code.
+Orange turns a data analysis into a diagram. You drop widgets onto a canvas, wire the output of one into the input of the next, and load a dataset at the start of the chain. Each widget does one step, such as reading a file, filtering rows, training a model or drawing a chart.
-It is useful for learning and exploratory analysis. Official macOS installers bundle the graphical application and its runtime.
+The visualization widgets cover the usual statistical views:
+
+- distributions, box plots and scatter plots
+- decision trees
+- heatmaps and hierarchical clustering
+- linear projections, MDS and t-SNE
+
+On a Mac, the download page has two disk images, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel. The file names show that each is built with Python 3.12.10. If you already work in Python, the README also covers installing Orange with conda, pip or uv and starting the canvas with `python -m Orange.canvas`. A pip install can need a C or C++ compiler, and the first launch can take a while.
+
+Add-ons bring extra widgets for text mining, network analysis, machine learning fairness, time series, spectra and gene expression data. You install them from Options > Add-ons in the menu bar. Some widgets were designed especially for teaching, to illustrate data science concepts in a classroom. Orange comes from the Bioinformatics Laboratory at the University of Ljubljana.

-OrcaSlicer provides tools for arranging models, generating supports, and reviewing the paths a printer will follow. Calibration features help tune profiles for a particular setup.
+OrcaSlicer slices 3D models into print jobs. You drag a model onto the plate, choose one of the pre-made printer profiles and tune the settings.
-Its macOS desktop build supports a range of printer profiles. Printer-specific integrations and network features can have separate requirements.
+- Calibration routines cover temperature towers, flow rate, retraction and more, with a calibration guide in the project wiki.
+- Wall and seam controls include precise outer-wall spacing and scarf seams.
+- Support placement and overhang settings are tunable, along with speed, layer height, pressure and temperature.
+- Mouse-ear brims and adaptive bed meshing help with adhesion.
+- Belt printers and IDEX or IQEX machines that print several copies at once are supported.
+
+Supported printer brands include Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and Voron. Klipper, PrusaLink and OctoPrint printers can be controlled over the network. Bambu Lab owners can add an optional networking plugin, which is built on non-free libraries from Bambu Lab.
+
+OrcaSlicer started from BambuStudio and PrusaSlicer, which in turn build on Slic3r. It is licensed under the AGPL v3.
+
+The Mac download is a single DMG for Apple silicon and Intel, and the project code-signs its release and nightly builds. Nightly builds carry the newest changes for testing. Look-alike sites such as orca-slicer.com and orcaslicer.net are not official; the project's own site is orcaslicer.com.

-Orkas turns a single chat into a multi-agent workspace: a commander model breaks a goal into steps and hands parts to built-in specialists for research, writing or slide creation. It can also start installed command-line agents such as Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode as local sessions.
-
-Conversations, files, keys and custom agents are stored on your disk, and model calls go directly to the providers you configure with your own API keys. Results depend on the models you pay for and on reviewing what the agents produce.

-osu! is a rhythm game in which you hit circles, follow sliders and spin to the beat of songs, using a mouse, tablet, touch screen or keyboard. Besides the standard mode it includes taiko drumming, catch and a keyboard-based mania mode, and players can download a large library of community-made beatmaps or build their own in the editor.
+osu! is a rhythm game. In its main mode you hit circles, follow sliders and spin spinners in time with a song, using a mouse, a pen tablet, a touchscreen or the keyboard. Each song comes as a beatmap, and the beatmap library is made by the players.
-This is "lazer", the open-source rewrite that is replacing the original Windows-only client. Online play, rankings and beatmap downloads need a free osu! account. Builds are provided for macOS 12 or later on Apple silicon and Intel.
+Four modes ship with the game: osu! itself, taiko, catch and mania. Developers can add more as rulesets, which reuse the beatmap library and the game engine for a new style of play.
-The game code is MIT licensed, but the bundled game resources such as artwork and sounds are under a separate non-commercial Creative Commons license, and the osu! and ppy names are trademarks.
+This client, codenamed lazer, is the open-source version the developers call the future and final iteration of osu!. The older client, osu!stable, is still offered for Windows. When you first start lazer, it asks you to sign in or create an account before you go looking for beatmaps.
+
+Builds for macOS 12 or later come as separate zipped apps for Apple silicon and Intel. Release notes for each version are on the osu! website.
+
+The code and framework are under the MIT licence. The game resources live in a separate repository, and most of that content is CC-BY-NC 4.0, so it is for non-commercial use only. The osu! and ppy names are trademarks that neither licence covers.

-OverSight monitors microphone and webcam activity and reports the processes involved. It provides another view into when applications begin accessing these devices.
+OverSight watches your Mac's microphone and webcam and shows an alert each time one of them turns on or off. The alert names the device and the process behind it, such as Zoom, with its process ID. From the alert you allow that app once, allow it always, or block it, which terminates the process.
-The app's alerts help investigate unexpected access. Consult the official product documentation for supported hardware and current macOS behavior.
+Its target is malware that records quietly. A camera light shows that a session started, but it says nothing about a second program joining a call that is already running. OverSight reports that access too. When it cannot work out which process is responsible, it shows a more generic alert.
+
+The status menu icon opens settings. You can ignore external mics and cameras, silence the alerts for a device turning off, or hide the icon while the monitor keeps running. Apps you allowed always appear in a list, where you can remove them again. An Action setting runs a script or program of your choice on each event and can pass it the device and process, for example to switch on an "on air" lamp.
+
+OverSight needs macOS 12 or later and an administrator account. It comes as a ZIP holding an installer app, Universal for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Alerts only appear if you allow its notifications and set their style to Alerts, and Do Not Disturb hides them. Older versions for macOS 10.15 to 11 and earlier remain available but unsupported.

+- Video comes out as MP4 or WebM, audio as MP3, Opus, FLAC or WAV.
+- Several downloads run at the same time.

+4K Video Downloader Plus also handles playlists and subtitles, and adds 8K downloads and automatic downloads of new videos from creators and playlists you subscribe to in the app. Its free version has quantity limits, and a paid license unlocks the rest. Parabolic is free under the MIT license.
+
+The project warns that videos on YouTube and other sites can be protected by copyright law, and that its authors take no responsibility for unlawful use.

-ParaView turns scientific data into interactive views that can be filtered, compared, and explored. Its pipeline makes the sequence of transformations visible as you work.
+ParaView loads simulation output and other scientific data, then builds a picture of it from a chain of filters. You open a dataset, add a slice, contour or threshold, and the 3D view updates as each step joins the pipeline.
-The desktop interface supports macOS and can connect to larger processing setups when needed. Start with the binary package for your platform.
+The desktop app reads the formats that engineering and science codes write, and it scripts what you do:
+
+- Readers cover OpenFOAM, Ansys Fluent, EnSight, Exodus, CGNS, NetCDF, LS-DYNA, Tecplot and XDMF, and reader plugins add more.
+- More than 200 filters include clip, glyph, stream tracer, probe, plot over time and volume rendering.
+- Python Tracing records your actions in the window as a Python script you can rerun on the next dataset.
+- The same window can use remote HPC resources as well as the Mac itself, so a cluster does the heavy work while you steer it.
+
+Those scripts also run with no window at all. Batch jobs use them, and so does in situ analysis through Catalyst while a simulation is still running.
+
+Two Mac disk images are offered. The Apple silicon build requires macOS 11, the Intel build macOS 10.15, and both bundle Python 3.12 and MPI. Each comes in a signed and an unsigned variant, and the Apple silicon image is close to 500 MB. ParaView is under the BSD 3-Clause license, and the third-party licenses shipped with the binaries are permissive too. Kitware, whose staff develop it alongside outside contributors, sells support and training and helps tailor it to a team's tools.

-Pareto Security sits in the menu bar and periodically runs a set of basic hygiene checks, such as whether disk encryption, the firewall, screen locking, Gatekeeper and software updates are configured sensibly. Failed checks are listed with guidance on how to fix them.
+Pareto Security checks whether the security settings macOS ships with are actually switched on. It lives in the menu bar, runs its checks regularly in the background, and shows which ones pass and which fail. Each check links to step-by-step fix instructions, and you can snooze the reminders.
-It reports problems rather than changing settings on its own, so it suits people who want a lightweight reminder instead of a full endpoint management tool. The company behind it also offers team features as a separate service.
+There are 37 macOS checks, grouped by area:
+
+- Access: automatic login is off, a password is asked for after inactivity, your daily account is not an administrator, and SSH keys have a passphrase.
+- Updates: macOS and App Store apps update automatically, and package managers and code editor extensions wait seven days before installing new releases.
+- Sharing: the firewall is on, AirDrop is limited to contacts, and Screen Sharing, File Sharing and Remote Login are off.
+- System integrity: FileVault and Gatekeeper are on, Time Machine backups are encrypted, and the Mac has restarted within the past 14 days.
+
+When a check fails, the app reminds you to deal with it. You can pick the set of checks a compliance framework such as CIS or SOC requires, or choose your own. The developer says the checks run locally on the Mac.
+
+Version 1.46.0 needs macOS 13 or later. The DMG on GitHub holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that is Developer ID-signed and notarized. It is free under the GPL-3.0 license.
+
+Pareto Desktop, as the company also calls the app, works on its own. Teams can link it to Pareto Cloud, a device monitoring service from Niteo, the company behind the app. According to the site, a linked app sends only the list of passed and failed checks, a device ID and name, the macOS and app versions and the time of the last check, and it opens no remote access. There are also versions for Linux and Windows.

-PasteBar combines clipboard history with a workspace for saved clips. Collections, notes, and paste menus help organize text, images, and other content that you reuse across applications.
+PasteBar records everything you copy in an unlimited history that you can search, and gives you a second space for clips you want to keep. Saved clips go into collections, tabs and boards, and each one can carry a note written in Markdown. Paste menus give quick access to them, and you can paste straight from the system menu.
-Its custom license restricts commercial distribution of the whole application while allowing limited commercial reuse of code portions. It is listed here as source available.
+- Text, images, files, links and code are all kept; code gets automatic language detection and syntax highlighting.
+- A Quick Paste window starts searching as soon as you type.
+- Collections can be locked behind a PIN, and the whole app behind a passcode.
+- Forms and global templates are supported, along with web scraping and API data extraction.
+- Backup and restore export the clip database together with its images.
+
+Data is stored locally, and you can point PasteBar at a folder of your choice, such as a cloud drive, to share it between machines.
+
+Paste also has pinboards and keeps its history in sync between Mac, iPhone and iPad. PasteBar runs on Mac and Windows, and syncing is left to whatever folder you store the data in.
+
+Version 0.7.0 runs on macOS 10.13 or later. It comes as a Universal DMG or as separate Apple silicon and Intel builds; the app in the Universal DMG is Developer ID-signed and notarized. The license is Creative Commons BY-NC with an added exception: you can reuse parts of the code in commercial work, but selling or commercially distributing the whole app needs the authors' permission.

-Pasteboard Viewer lists the items on the general, find, drag and other system pasteboards and shows the raw data stored under each type identifier. It is aimed at developers checking what their own app writes on copy or drag, rather than at people who want a clipboard history.
+When you copy something in your own app, Pasteboard Viewer shows what actually landed on the system pasteboards, item by item. The contents refresh live, so you can copy again in your app and watch the result change.
-The current version is distributed through the Mac App Store and needs a recent macOS release; the project README links older builds for earlier systems and a yearly non-App Store download.
+- Text, RTF and images get a preview, and so does anything Quick Look can render.
+- The up and down arrow keys switch between pasteboard items.
+- Right-clicking an entry in the sidebar copies its type identifier.
+- Stay in Front, in the Window menu, keeps the window above your app while you test.
+
+The current App Store release requires macOS 26, and the same project ships versions for iOS and visionOS. Older Mac builds stay on GitHub, going back to version 1.5.1 for macOS 10.15. If you cannot use the App Store, a separate download of version 2.12.0 is offered; it does not update itself, and the developer replaces it about once a year.
+
+Obsolete types that have a modern equivalent, such as `NSStringPboardType` and `NSFilenamesPboardType`, are hidden. The app is meant for programmers checking what their code puts on `NSPasteboard` or `UIPasteboard`, and it is not a clipboard manager.

-Pasty provides several ways to retrieve copied content, including a searchable central palette and a strip of cards. Pinboards and multi-selection help organize and paste frequently used material.
+Pasty keeps what you copy in a local history and gives you three ways to bring it back. Shift-Command-V opens a search panel in the middle of the screen, and Option-Shift-V slides up a strip of cards along the bottom edge. On a Mac with a notch, moving the pointer onto the notch drops a panel down from the top, and you can drag a card from it straight into the document you are editing.
-It is a newer project with evolving releases. Consult the release notes for the features available in the build you install rather than treating its roadmap as shipped functionality.
+Search accepts filters as well as keywords. `type:link`, `source:Safari` and `pinboard:` narrow the list, `>1d` keeps only the last day, and a pattern between slashes runs as a regular expression.
+
+- Command-1 to 9 pastes one of the first nine clips, and Shift-Return pastes plain text.
+- Shift-click and Command-click select several clips; Return pastes them in order, Option-Return as one block.
+- Pinboards carry colors, and snippets can contain variables such as `{{date}}` and `{{cursor}}`.
+- Code clips get syntax highlighting, and images go through on-device text recognition.

+Pasty needs macOS 14 and the Accessibility permission for automatic pasting. The 0.4.13 DMG holds an app built for Apple silicon only, with an ad-hoc signature, so the first launch needs Open from the right-click menu. The releases page also lists betas up to 0.10.0.

-PCSX2 provides PlayStation 2 emulation through a graphical desktop application. It includes settings for controllers, rendering, and game-specific compatibility.
+PCSX2 plays PlayStation 2 games on your Mac. It emulates the console's hardware with MIPS CPU interpreters and recompilers, and most of the PS2 library now runs at full speed. The project keeps a public compatibility list with more than 2,500 titles tested.
-Required system files and games are obtained separately. The project publishes macOS builds alongside its other desktop releases.
+The BIOS is the one hard requirement. It is proprietary Sony software, PCSX2 cannot run games without it, and no open replacement exists, so the documentation walks you through dumping it from a console you own. You supply the games too.
+
+On top of plain emulation, PCSX2 adds features the console never had:
+
+- Custom resolutions and upscaling beyond the PS2's native output.
+- Save states alongside virtual memory cards that can be shared.
+- A patching system for game fixes and changes.
+- A built-in recorder that captures lossless video at full speed.
+
+PCSX2 requires macOS 11 Big Sur or later, with Sonoma or Sequoia recommended. The macOS build is an Intel (x86-64) app only. On Apple silicon it runs through Rosetta 2, and the requirements page counts every M-series chip in its heaviest CPU tier. The download is a compressed archive holding a Developer ID-signed, notarized app, with stable and nightly builds on the project site.
+
+On the graphics side, upscaling level and blending accuracy decide most of the GPU load, and the software renderer takes the GPU out of the picture entirely.

-PDFsam Basic focuses on structural PDF operations such as combining files or extracting selected pages. Its task-based interface makes repeated document preparation straightforward.
+PDFsam Basic builds new PDF files out of the pages of ones you already have. You add files to one of its six tools, set the options and run it, and the result is written as a new document.
-The Basic edition is open source. Other PDFsam products offer different functionality and licensing, so choose the Basic download for this application.
+- Merge joins whole files or page ranges such as 1-10, 14, 25-. It can combine, drop or rebuild bookmarks, keep form fields and add a clickable table of contents.
+- Split cuts after every page, after odd or even pages, every n pages, at given page numbers, at a rough file size or at a bookmark level.
+- Mix interleaves two or more files, which puts the odd and even pages of a single-sided scan back in order.
+- Rotate turns all or chosen pages by 90, 180 or 270 degrees.
+- Extract copies selected pages into a new file.
+- Insert drops one PDF, or part of it, into another at a fixed page interval.
+
+The developer says files are processed on your computer and never uploaded, and the tools need no internet connection. Output carries no watermark, and there is no file size limit.
+
+Adobe Acrobat can also change, replace or delete the text on a page. The six tools in PDFsam Basic move, copy and turn whole pages instead. The same company sells PDFsam Visual and PDFsam Enhanced under their own end-user licenses, so make sure the download you pick is Basic.
+
+PDFsam Basic needs macOS 11 or later and comes in separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel. It is a JavaFX program that bundles its own Java runtime, and the app inside the DMG is notarized.

-PDFx is a small viewer for handling many PDFs together. Dropped documents, images or folders appear on one canvas, each as a horizontal strip of pages, and can be reordered or removed before exporting everything as a single file.
+PDFx turns a pile of PDFs into a single file. Drag PDFs, images or whole folders into its window, and each document appears as a horizontal strip of pages, with the documents stacked one under another. Reorder or remove them, then choose Export PDF.
-That file is an ordinary PDF that any reader shows page by page; PDFx also embeds a short manifest so it can split the bundle back into its original documents later. The format is documented in the repository. It is an early project, first released in 2026, with Mac builds on GitHub releases.
+The result is a valid PDF. Any reader shows every page in order, start to finish. Open it in PDFx instead and the bundle splits back into the documents you started with, so an invoice and a contract can travel as one file. Ordinary single PDFs open as they are.
+
+Version 0.2.0, from August 2026, added forms, signing, text highlights, text elements and AI translation tools. The app is built with Electron, renders through pdf.js and assembles files with pdf-lib. A Windows installer ships next to the Mac download, the README covers building for Linux, and pdfx.zip runs a web demo.
+
+On the GitHub release, the Mac build is a DMG for Apple silicon only. macOS blocks the app on first launch, and the release notes say to allow it under Privacy & Security with Open Anyway.
+
+The format is small and documented in the repository's spec. PDFx attaches a JSON file named `pdfx-manifest.json` to the PDF, listing each document's name and page count, so another program can recover the boundaries.

-Pear Desktop wraps the YouTube Music web player in a standalone desktop window and adds optional plugins on top. The bundled set covers things like synced lyrics, an equalizer, crossfade, SponsorBlock, Discord status, scrobbling, picture-in-picture and a downloader, each of which can be enabled individually.
+Pear Desktop wraps the YouTube Music web player in its own window and lets you switch on plugins that change how it plays and looks. The installed app is still called YouTube Music, and the project started life as `th-ch/youtube-music`; that old GitHub address now redirects here.
-The project was previously published as `th-ch/youtube-music` and is independent of Google. It needs a working YouTube Music account and connection to play anything. macOS builds are attached to each GitHub release, and the maintainers also provide a Homebrew tap.
+The plugins live in the source tree, one folder each, and you turn them on individually. Among them:
+
+- Playback: crossfade, an equalizer, playback speed, precise volume, skipping silences and skipping disliked songs.
+- Lyrics and video: synced lyrics, a captions selector, picture-in-picture and a video toggle.
+- Outside services: SponsorBlock, Discord, a scrobbler and a downloader.
+- Extras: Touch Bar controls, an ambient mode and a visualizer.
+
+You can also load your own CSS themes under Options > Visual Tweaks > Themes. Writing a new plugin means adding a folder under `src/plugins` with a TypeScript entry file, and the README walks through the hooks it gets.
+
+Release 3.12.0 carries two Mac DMGs, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel, and the app asks for macOS 12 or later. The builds are not signed. If macOS reports the app as damaged, the README gives an `xattr -cr` command to run in Terminal. Homebrew users can install it from the project's own tap with `brew install pear-devs/pear/pear-desktop`.
+
+The volunteers behind it state that the project has no connection to Google or YouTube.

-Pearcleaner helps review installed applications, associated support files, and remnants left by previously removed software. Its file lists make it possible to inspect what will be removed before committing to a cleanup.
+Pearcleaner finds the preferences, caches and support files an app has spread across your Mac and lists them next to the app, so you can see what goes before anything is deleted. Drop an app on the window, or right-click it in Finder through the included extension, then choose which files go with it.
-Use the official GitHub releases for downloads and review each deletion selection. The code is published, but the additional Commons Clause restriction means this listing is classified as source available.
+- An orphaned-file search looks for leftovers from apps you already deleted.
+- Sentinel Monitor watches the Trash and cleans up after an app you drag there.
+- Homebrew, PKG installs, plugins and services each get their own manager.
+- Unneeded architectures can be stripped from Universal apps, and unused translations pruned.
+- You can include or exclude folders and adjust how loosely the search matches files.
+
+Searching needs Full Disk Access, and changes in system folders go through a privileged helper. Apps show in a list or a grid, with badges for web and iOS apps, and a command line interface and deep links allow scripting.
+
+AppCleaner, which inspired the project, also lists an app's files before removing them. Pearcleaner builds that same job into a wider set of managers for Homebrew, packages and plugins.
+
+Pearcleaner needs macOS 13 Ventura or later. The release DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and separate Intel and Apple silicon ZIPs are offered. The developer has put the project on hold since the end of 2025, and 5.4.3 is the current release. The only official website is itsalin.com; other sites offering Pearcleaner downloads are not his. The Commons Clause forbids selling the app or modified versions.

-PeaZip is a full archive manager with a file-browser interface. It extracts a long list of formats, creates archives such as 7Z, ZIP, TAR, and Zstandard, and supports encryption, split volumes, and integrity checks.
+PeaZip opens archives in a file-browser window where you can look inside, search and pull out what you need, and it builds new archives from files you add. It reads more than 200 archive types, RAR, ISO, CAB and WIM among them, and writes 7Z, ZIP, ZIPX, TAR, GZ, BZ2, WIM and its own PEA format.
-It is a cross-platform application rather than a Mac-specific utility, so its interface follows its own conventions. Separate Apple silicon and Intel DMGs are published on GitHub and linked from the official macOS page.
+- Encrypted archives use AES, Twofish or Serpent, with optional two-factor authentication and encrypted file names.
+- Split files and spanned archives (.001, .r01, .z01) can be joined or created.
+- Checksums and hashes verify files, and secure deletion wipes them.
+- A task set up in the window can be exported as a command-line script, for example to rerun a backup.
+
+The same Lazarus and Free Pascal program runs on Windows, Linux and BSD, and it uses 7-Zip, Zstd, Brotli, ZPAQ and other open-source engines underneath. The Advanced tab of 7Z creation can switch to Zstd, Brotli or LZ4 once you set the 7z alias to `7zalt` in settings. Standard 7-Zip cannot open those archives.
+
+The download page offers separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, plus a ZIP of the Intel build for older systems. Neither build carries a Developer ID signature, so you drag `peazip.app` to Applications and clear the quarantine flag with an `xattr` command before the first launch. Automator workflows inside the DMG add Extract and Add to archive to the Finder context menu.
+
+The Unarchiver is free too, and it is built for opening and extracting archives. PeaZip also creates and encrypts them.

-PeekX adds folder support to Quick Look: select a folder in Finder, press Space, and the preview summarises its contents with the number of files, total size and a breakdown by file type. Version 1.1 also previews Markdown files.
+Pick a folder in Finder, press Space, and PeekX fills the Quick Look window with a report on what the folder holds. You see what is inside without opening it.
-The download is a small host app that registers the extension the first time it is opened and then quits. The README lists macOS 14 Sonoma or later. The latest release, 1.1, dates from November 2025.
+The preview shows:
+
+- the total number of files and subfolders
+- the folder's total size
+- a breakdown of the contents by file type
+- the largest files, and a view of the folder structure
+
+Version 1.1 added Markdown: pressing Space on a `.md` file renders it in Quick Look as well.
+
+The release comes as a DMG or a ZIP. The app in the DMG is a Universal build for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it needs macOS 14 Sonoma or later. Move it to Applications and open it once; it registers the extension and quits. If the preview does not appear, the README's fix is to reset the Quick Look cache with `qlmanage -r cache` and relaunch Finder. Deleting PeekX.app removes it again.
+
+The extension runs in the macOS sandbox. The developer says it makes no network connections and collects nothing.

-Penc activates a window-control mode by double-pressing and holding Command. Drag, pinch, or swipe with the trackpad to position the current window, then release the key to finish.
+Penc moves and resizes windows with the trackpad. Press Command twice and keep holding it, then use two fingers on the trackpad. When you let go of Command, the change takes effect.
-It requires Accessibility permission and the trackpad pinch gesture to be enabled for resizing. The project provides a downloadable macOS disk image.
+- Dragging with two fingers moves the window.
+- Pinching resizes it. A vertical pinch makes it taller or shorter, and a horizontal one makes it wider or narrower.
+- A fast two-finger swipe snaps it to half or a quarter of the screen. Swipe toward a corner for a quarter and toward a side for a half.
+
+Penc needs the Accessibility permission, which macOS asks for on first launch. Pinch-to-resize only works when Zoom in or out is turned on in the Trackpad settings under Scroll & Zoom.
+
+Magnet snaps windows into the same halves and quarters, triggered by dragging to an edge, by keyboard shortcuts or from the menu bar, and it comes from the Mac App Store. Penc works from the trackpad with only the Command key held, and it also moves and resizes a window freely.
+
+Version 1.0.0 from July 2021 is the latest release, and later commits change only the README and the project website. It requires macOS 10.13 or later. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized. Homebrew installs it as the `penc` cask.

-Pencil is a long-running GUI prototyping tool: drag widgets from bundled stencil collections, such as desktop, web and mobile controls, flowchart shapes and clip art, onto pages, link pages together and export the result as images, PDF or a clickable HTML mock-up.
+You build wireframes in Pencil by dragging shapes from its stencil collections onto a page, then arranging and styling them on a vector canvas. A mockup can run to many pages, and any element can link to another page.
-Version 3 moved the app to Electron. The latest release, 3.1.1, dates from January 2023 and is offered on the official site as a universal macOS disk image.
+- Built-in collections cover desktop and web controls, Android and iOS screens, general shapes and flowchart elements.
+- Connectors wire shapes together, so the same canvas works for flowcharts and other diagrams.
+- More stencils install from the online repository under Tools > Manage Collections, from an archive URL or from a local ZIP.
+- Exports include PNG images, PDF, Inkscape SVG, LibreOffice text documents and a web page. In the web export, links between pages become clickable, so viewers can step through the flow.
+
+Pencil runs on macOS, Windows and Linux and saves documents as `.ep` or `.epz` files. The Mac download page offers separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, plus a universal one.
+
+Version 4.0 arrived in October 2026, nearly four years after 3.1.1, and adds an MCP server inside the app at `127.0.0.1:1919`. Settings > MCP copies ready-made configuration for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Antigravity and VS Code. A connected assistant can list the installed stencils, add and move shapes, create pages and request a rendered preview to inspect its own layout. The developers say documents and MCP traffic stay on the Mac.

-Pencil2D offers a compact drawing workspace for traditional frame-by-frame animation. Switch between bitmap and vector layers while arranging drawings on the timeline.
+Pencil2D is for traditional frame-by-frame animation: you draw a pose on one keyframe, move to the next frame, draw again and press Play to watch the sequence. Each layer is either bitmap or vector, so you can sketch rough motion on one layer and ink cleaner lines on another.
-It is well suited to animation studies, rough sequences, and small hand-drawn projects where a lightweight tool is helpful.
+- Onion skinning shows the previous and next drawings faintly behind the current one, and you can tint earlier frames red and later ones blue.
+- The canvas has no edges. A camera layer sets the frame that gets exported, and since version 0.7.0 you can keyframe its position and rotation, pick an easing curve and see the camera path drawn on the canvas.
+- Opacity can be set per keyframe or per layer, and a Fade In or Fade Out command ramps it across three or more selected keyframes.
+- Sound layers take WAV and MP3 files for timing dialogue or music against the drawings.
+
+The FAQ lists a few gaps: there is no text tool, no shape tool and no video import. It also recommends turning on autosave in Preferences and saving a new file once early, because unsaved drawings stay in memory.
+
+The download page lists macOS 10.14 or later for the Mac build. The v0.7.2 DMG contains an Intel-only app, and Apple's Gatekeeper reports it as notarized. Pencil2D is released under the GPL-2.0.
+
+Adobe Animate covers the same drawing and timeline work and adds motion and shape tweens, bone rigging and HTML5 Canvas publishing. Adobe has put it in maintenance mode, with bug fixes but no new features. Pencil2D keeps a smaller toolset aimed at hand-drawn frames.

-Peninsula turns the area around the MacBook notch into a small control surface. It can replace Command-Tab with a window switcher that supports search, show badge counts for chosen apps, hold files in a temporary tray and run countdown timers.
+Peninsula puts a set of small panels behind the MacBook notch. Click the notch to open it, click again to move to the next panel, and click anywhere else to close it.
-Parts of the code build on AltTab, NotchDrop and Doll, which the README credits. Releases are zip downloads that must be approved in Privacy & Security on first launch, and the app needs Accessibility access to list windows and read notification counts.
+- A window switcher replaces Command-Tab. Hold Command and press Tab to step forward, Shift to step back, or Escape to cancel; letting go of Command picks the app.
+- A second shortcut, set in the apps view, opens the switcher with a search field. Type part of a window's name and press Return.
+- The notification panel watches apps you add. When one gets a notification, its icon appears beside the notch for a few seconds, then the total count, which you can click.
+- The tray holds files temporarily, and the timer counts down from a typed value such as "2h15m" or from scroll wheels.
+
+Each part credits an earlier project. The switcher code comes mainly from AltTab, the notch panels from NotchDrop and the notification counts from Doll.
+
+Peninsula needs the Accessibility permission to list apps and read notification counts. The current release, 0.1.0 from September 2025, is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that requires macOS 14 or later. It is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Even so, the README asks you to approve it in Privacy & Security on first launch.

-Pesty slides a row of clipboard cards up from the bottom of the active screen. Search, keyboard navigation, and pinboards make it easy to retrieve recent content or keep frequently reused items.
+Press Shift-Command-V and Pesty raises a strip of clipboard cards along the bottom edge of whichever screen you are working on. Move along it with the arrow keys or start typing to search, then press Return to paste the clip into the app you came from. Command-1 to Command-9 paste one of the first nine cards directly, and adding Shift pastes plain text.
-Optional iCloud synchronization can share history across Macs. Direct downloads are available free, while the optional App Store purchase supports development.
+Each card has a header tinted by the app it was copied from, with that app's icon, the content type, the copy time and a preview. Pesty records plain and rich text, links, images, files and colors. Clips you reuse go into pinboards: named, color-tagged collections that never expire. Command-Shift-P pauses recording while the strip is open, and clips that password managers mark as concealed are skipped.
+
+The free build comes from GitHub as a DMG or from Homebrew. It is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and needs macOS 14 or later. Pasting into other apps needs the Accessibility permission. iCloud Drive sync between your Macs is off by default. The Mac App Store edition is the same app for a one-time fee; it is sandboxed, so it copies the clip and you press Command-V yourself.
+
+Paste, which inspired the design, also syncs to iPhone and iPad. Pesty runs only on the Mac, and the developer says it has no clipboard servers or analytics.

-Petrichor plays music files from folders you point it at, organising them into albums, artists and other library views. Smart playlists, a drag-and-drop queue, folder browsing, synced lyrics and saved internet radio stations cover everyday listening without a streaming subscription.
+Petrichor plays the music files you already own. Add your music folders and it reads their tags into an organised library, with a folder view when you want to browse by location instead.
-It integrates with the menu bar, Dock and Shortcuts, and offers gapless playback, crossfade, ReplayGain and Last.fm scrobbling. Library views depend on well-tagged files, so messy metadata produces messy results.
+- It imports 46 file extensions, from MP3, AAC and FLAC to APE, WavPack, DSD and Opus, and reads the real encoding so the Lossless badge is accurate.
+- Smart playlists take conditional, negative and regular-expression rules, and ordinary playlists can be imported or exported.
+- The play queue is rearranged by drag and drop, and almost anything can be pinned to the sidebar.
+- Playback covers gapless tracks, crossfade, ReplayGain, an equalizer, Spatial Audio and AirPlay 2.
+- Synced lyrics show when available, and missing ones can be downloaded.
+
+Saved internet radio stations sit in collections next to the library. Controls appear in the menu bar and Dock, and Shortcuts and Siri can drive playback. For a smaller window there is a miniplayer, and an immersive mode fills the screen.
+
+Most features lean on good metadata, so tidy tags pay off. DRM-protected purchases, audiobook files, MIDI and tracker modules do not play; MOD, IT, S3M and XM support ended with 1.7.
+
+The app is sandboxed and never changes your files or folders. The developer says it collects no analytics and keeps library data offline. Lyrics, artist images, radio and Last.fm scrobbling each use the network and are off until you enable them.
+
+Version 1.7.3 is a Universal DMG for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized, and needs macOS 14.

-pgAdmin provides a graphical environment for working with PostgreSQL servers. It combines database objects, SQL tools, and administration tasks in one application.
+pgAdmin 4 connects to your PostgreSQL servers and lists the objects inside them, from databases and schemas down to tables and columns. Select an object to see its properties and its SQL definition, or browse its dependencies and dependents. You can create, view and edit all the common object types, from tables and views to publications, subscriptions and pgAgent jobs.
-The macOS app bundles its desktop runtime and web-based interface. It is available for supported Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.
+- The query tool highlights SQL as you type, shows results in a grid you can edit, and draws query plans as diagrams.
+- Schema diff lists the differences between two schemas, and the ERD tool designs and documents them visually.
+- A procedural language debugger handles PL/pgSQL and EDB-SPL functions.
+- The Grant Wizard makes quick changes to access privileges (ACLs).
+- A monitoring dashboard tracks server activity, while backup, restore, vacuum and analyze run when you ask.
+
+Version support moves with PostgreSQL. Each release supports the PostgreSQL and EDB Postgres Advanced Server versions that are still in support when it ships. On a Mac, pgAdmin runs in desktop mode: the web application wrapped in its own runtime. The same code can also run in server mode, where several users reach one install through a browser.
+
+One download covers both chip types. The macOS disk image is a universal binary for Apple silicon and Intel, signed and notarised. The download page lists macOS 14 Sonoma as the oldest supported version, and macOS 26 Tahoe is supported from version 9.9.

-Phoenix exposes windows, screens, spaces, apps, the mouse and system events to a JavaScript configuration file. You write the behaviour you want, such as tiling layouts, keyboard shortcuts or event-driven rules, and Phoenix runs it with a small footprint. Languages that compile to JavaScript, such as TypeScript, also work.
+Phoenix lets you build your own window and app manager by writing JavaScript. It reads a script from `~/.phoenix.js`, created on first launch, and runs it from the status bar or as a background process. TypeScript and other languages that compile to JavaScript work too.
-Its behaviour comes from your own configuration, so it suits people comfortable writing some JavaScript. Phoenix needs Accessibility permission. The latest release, 4.0.1, dates from mid-2024 and is also available as a Homebrew cask.
+In that script you attach your own functions to hotkeys and to system events, and those functions can act on the following.
+
+- Windows, apps, screens and spaces, including moving windows between spaces.
+- The mouse pointer.
+- Logged messages, notifications, and modals that display content or ask for input.
+- External commands, run as you would from a terminal.
+
+On first run, macOS asks you to allow Phoenix under Accessibility in Privacy & Security, which needs an admin account. Version 4.0.1 fixed moving windows between spaces on macOS Sonoma 14.5 and later. Phoenix requires macOS 10.14 or later, and the 4.0.1 download is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Homebrew users can install the `phoenix` cask instead.
+
+A tiling layout, a set of hotkeys that throw windows to fixed positions or a rule that runs when an app launches are all things you write yourself. The project wiki collects configurations other users have shared, which is a practical starting point. If you prefer, the script can sit in a Phoenix folder under Application Support or `~/.config` instead.

-PHP Monitor shows the active PHP version in the menu bar and switches the system-wide version in a click, or per site through Laravel Valet's isolation. It installs and updates PHP versions and extensions through Homebrew, opens configuration files, restarts services, and manages Valet domains and links.
+PHP Monitor puts the linked PHP version in your menu bar and lets you switch to another installed version from the same menu. That switch is global, so the chosen PHP becomes the default for the whole system. With Laravel Valet you can also pin a version to a single site through Valet's site isolation.
-On first launch it can walk through installing the Command Line Tools, Homebrew, PHP, Composer and Valet, and a First Aid menu fixes common Homebrew and PHP breakage. It requires macOS 13.5 or later and an administrator account, and is downloaded from GitHub releases or installed with Homebrew.
+The menu also reaches the other routine work around a local PHP setup:
+
+- A PHP Version Manager installs and upgrades PHP versions, including older ones from Shivam Mathur's Homebrew tap.
+- A PHP Extension Manager installs extensions from the matching tap.
+- Configuration files open from the menu, and services restart from it.
+- You can add domains as links, isolate sites and manage Valet's services.
+- First Aid repairs common PHP and Homebrew problems.
+
+On a fresh Mac, the first launch can guide you through Apple's Command Line Tools, Homebrew, your PATH, PHP, Composer and, if you want it, Valet. Along the way, macOS may still put up an installer or ask for administrator approval. PHP Monitor works with Valet 2 through 4, though older Valet versions lack features such as site isolation. Non-standard Homebrew and Valet setups are not supported.
+
+An Alfred workflow and a Raycast extension can talk to the app once you allow third-party integrations, which are off by default. PHP Monitor needs macOS 13.5 or later and an administrator account for setup and some tasks, such as generating certificates. The GitHub download is a ZIP holding a Universal app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and a Homebrew cask is available from the developer's own tap.

-Pi Stats keeps an eye on a Pi-hole from the Mac menu bar: queries, blocked requests and other counters, with charts and quick controls to disable or re-enable blocking. It can track several Pi-hole instances, stores their passwords in the Keychain, and can also show the server's temperature, uptime, load and memory use.
+Pi Stats watches your Pi-hole from the Mac menu bar. Click the icon to see live blocking statistics with charts, and turn blocking off or back on from the same place.
-Current versions target Pi-hole 6 and require macOS 15.2 or later. The author distributes the Mac build through the Mac App Store; an iOS version comes from the same repository.
+You can add more than one Pi-hole and follow them all from the same menu. Each one signs in with the password you already use for its web interface, and Pi Stats keeps that password in the Keychain. The app can also show each server's temperature, uptime, CPU load and memory use. Those numbers come from Pi-hole's authenticated API, so you install nothing extra on the server and open no additional port.
+
+Current versions need Pi-hole 6 and macOS 15.2 Sequoia or later. Because Pi-hole 6 limits concurrent API sessions, Pi Stats can fail to connect while other clients get through. Raising `webserver.api.max_sessions`, in `/etc/pihole/pihole.toml` or under the web interface's expert settings, fixes that.
+
+The code is under the BSD 2-Clause license, and the same repository holds an iPhone and iPad version with widgets. The developer distributes the Mac app through the Mac App Store.

-PicGo sends screenshots and image files to a configured hosting service and puts the resulting link on the clipboard in Markdown, HTML, plain URL or a custom format. Uploads can start from drag and drop, the clipboard, a global shortcut or the Finder context menu.
+PicGo uploads an image to a hosting service you have set up and copies the link to the clipboard once the upload finishes. The link can be Markdown, HTML, a bare URL or your own template, ready to paste into a blog post, notes or documentation.
-GitHub, Imgur and several cloud storage vendors are supported directly, and plugins add others such as S3-compatible storage. Editors including Typora, Obsidian and VS Code can hand their images to it, natively or through plugins. You need your own account and credentials for whichever host you choose.
+- Drag files onto the window, upload what is on the clipboard, or use the Finder context menu.
+- Command-Shift-U opens the upload window from any app, and you can change the shortcut.
+- Typora, Obsidian, VS Code, Neovim and other editors can pass pasted images to PicGo, natively or through plugins.
+- An HTTP API accepts uploads from scripts and other tools.
+- Plugins add hosts and processing such as compression, watermarks, renaming and moving Markdown images to a new host.
+
+Built-in hosts include GitHub, Imgur, SM.MS, Qiniu, Tencent Cloud COS, UPYUN and Alibaba Cloud OSS. AWS S3, Cloudflare R2 and MinIO come through plugins, and the project no longer adds new hosts to the core app. Official Agent Skills and a DeepSeek Harness plugin let AI tools upload through your PicGo setup too.
+
+Version 3.0.3 comes as separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon build needs macOS 12 or later. It is also a Homebrew cask. PicGo is an Electron app, free under the MIT license, with Windows and Linux builds as well.

+
+The desktop app is built on Electron for macOS, Windows and Linux, and its documentation site is in Chinese and English. Mac releases come as separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel.
+
+Typora 1.6 and later can select PicList directly as its uploader. Obsidian connects through the Image Auto Upload plugin and PicList's local endpoint at 127.0.0.1:36677, and a VS Code extension, VS-PicList, does the same for that editor. Most existing PicGo plugins work. The same developer also maintains PicHoro, an Android client, and PicList-Core, the command-line core that runs as a separate upload server in Docker.

-Pika is a compact colour picker for sampling foreground and background colours from the screen. Values can be copied as Hex, RGB, HSB, HSL, LAB, or OpenGL, and the app shows contrast information to help judge readability.
+Pika samples two colours from anywhere on screen, a foreground and a background, and shows the contrast between them next to their values, ready to copy. Press Command-D to pick the foreground, Shift-Command-D for the background, or Option-Command-D to pick both in a row from any app.
-Keyboard shortcuts and a URL scheme make it quick to use from other tools. Downloads are offered on the project page and as GitHub release DMGs.
+- Contrast is checked with WCAG 2, which gives a ratio, or with APCA, which gives an Lc value that weighs text size and weight.
+- Seven formats are available, from Hex and RGB through LAB and OKLCH to OpenGL, in sRGB or Display P3. Contrast is always worked out in sRGB.
+- You can click a value to type a new one, scrub it by dragging or with a two-finger scroll, or step it with the arrow keys.
+- Picks keep a history with colour names, undo and redo.
+
+The basic picker uses the macOS sampler. The Pro picker adds a live loupe and needs the Screen Recording permission. Pressing X swaps foreground and background, which helps when you sampled them in the wrong order.
+
+Most shortcuts work only while Pika is in front, but show/hide and the pair pick are global and can be reassigned in settings. A `pika://` URL scheme covers picking, copying, format changes, swapping and history, and it can copy both colours as text or JSON, so scripts and launchers can drive it.
+
+Pika 2.0.2 needs macOS 14 or later. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. It is also on the App Store.

-Pixelorama provides a pixel-oriented canvas with animation frames, palettes, and drawing tools. Layers and timeline controls help keep character art and small animations organized.
+Pixelorama is for drawing pixel art and animating it: sprites, tiles, game assets. You draw on a timeline of layers and frames, with onion skinning, frame tags, audio sync, and the option to keep drawing while the animation plays.
-It is useful for game assets, icons, and other work where individual pixels matter. The macOS build is distributed by the project.
+Tools map separately to the left and right mouse buttons, so two can be ready at once. Other parts are built around pixels:
+
+- Pixel-perfect lines, an indexed color mode, and rotation and scaling algorithms such as cleanEdge, OmniScale and rotxel.
+- Tilemap layers for rectangular, isometric or hexagonal tiles.
+- Clipping masks and non-destructive layer effects, including outlines, gradient maps and drop shadows.
+- Guides, rectangular and isometric grids, and a tile mode for repeating patterns.
+- 3D layers that bring models and shapes into a 2D canvas.
+
+Palettes can be picked from presets, imported or made inside the app. Work exports as PNG, animated PNG, spritesheets, GIF or video, and a command-line interface handles bulk exports. You can attach custom data to layers, frames and cels for a game pipeline, and add community extensions. Pixelorama also keeps automatic backups for recovery after a crash.
+
+The app is built with the Godot engine. The Mac download from GitHub releases is a DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, and itch.io also offers a Mac version.
+
+Aseprite, a paid editor with a trial version, also has a tiled mode, onion skin and a command-line interface. Pixelorama is free under the MIT license.

-Platypus turns a script into a regular Mac application. Choose an interpreter, an interface style such as a progress bar, text output window, droplet, web view or status menu, then set the icon, identifier and accepted file types. Dragged files are passed to the script as arguments.
+Platypus takes a script and builds a Mac application around it, so a shell or Python tool can be opened with a double-click. You pick the script and its interpreter, choose how the app shows what the script is doing, and set the name, icon, identifier, version and the file types it accepts. Platypus then writes an app bundle that holds the script and a small binary that runs it.
-It is useful for sharing command-line tools with people who will not open Terminal. A command-line tool is included for scripted builds. Homebrew has disabled its cask because the download fails Gatekeeper checks, so download from the official site or GitHub releases.
+- Interpreters include sh, Python, Perl, Ruby, PHP, Swift, Tcl, AWK, JavaScript, Dart and AppleScript, and you can name any other.
+- The generated app can show a progress bar, a text window with the script's output, a droplet, an HTML view rendered by WebKit or a status menu item.
+- Files or text dropped on the app reach the script as arguments.
+- Apps can run their script with root privileges, register for URL schemes, post notifications or run in the background without a Dock icon.
+
+Support files can be bundled next to the script from the same window, and a whole configuration can be saved as a profile and reused. The editor is built in, or you can hand the script to an outside editor. A `platypus` command-line tool does the same work in build scripts and CI.
+
+The developer started Platypus around 2003, and version 5.5.0 shipped in December 2025. It is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, needs macOS 11 or later, and comes as a ZIP of about 3.5 MB. The developer states that the download is signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-PlayCover wraps decrypted iOS app packages so they run on Apple silicon Macs as if on an iPad, then lets you map touch controls to keys, mouse movement and game controllers. It is mostly used for mobile games that lack an official Mac version or proper keyboard support.
+PlayCover runs iPhone and iPad apps on an Apple silicon Mac by wrapping each one in a layer that presents it as an iPad. You map on-screen touch controls to the keyboard, mouse and game controllers, which matters most for mobile games with no Mac version. It began as a way to run Genshin Impact and now runs a much wider range of apps, though some fail or have bugs.
-You must supply the app packages yourself, and the project notes that not every app is supported and some may have bugs. It does not run on Intel Macs. The latest stable release at review time was 3.1.0, with a 4.0 prerelease available.
+You bring your own `.ipa` files, and they must be decrypted before PlayCover accepts them. The IPA Library can also install apps from source lists you add, either a web link or a local JSON file.
+
+- The keymapping editor opens with Command-K inside a running app, and the Option key turns the active keymap on or off. While it is on, the pointer stays locked to the app window.
+- Keymaps for many games can be imported, and you can export your own.
+- Graphics settings change the resolution and the device model the app sees, which can unlock features some apps reserve for certain iPads.
+- An account manager, jailbreak-detection bypass and an export to Sideloadly are also included.
+
+PlayCover blocks some apps by bundle ID. Competitive games such as PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty: Mobile are on that list because they can detect the Mac setup as a jailbroken or modified client and ban the account.
+
+The app needs an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 12 or later and does not run on Intel. Release 3.1.0 is Developer ID-signed and notarized, and the project recommends its 4.0.0 pre-release from October 2026 as the newer build.

+- Shortcuts actions, Spotlight phrases and a `playstatus://` URL scheme control playback from Raycast, Alfred, Stream Deck or a shell script.
+- Global hotkeys cover play, skip, the popover and detached mode.
+
+Version 3.1.3 needs macOS 15. The release is a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and Sparkle handles updates. A Homebrew cask lives in the developer's own tap.
+
+Control works through AppleScript, so macOS asks for Automation permission for Music and Spotify on first launch. Lyrics come from Apple Music or LRCLIB, and artwork lookups can use public Apple endpoints.

-Plonk gathers several small Mac utilities behind a single menu bar icon: screenshots with annotation and pinned crops, on-device OCR, an on-screen ruler, keep-awake timers, pointer highlighting, a shortcut inspector, snap zones and saved multi-monitor workspaces. Modules you do not need can be switched off.
+Plonk gathers screen and window tools behind one menu bar icon and one command palette, and you switch off the modules you have no use for. A disabled module loses its menu items and shortcuts, and agents can no longer call it.
-It also ships a CLI and an MCP server so scripts and AI agents can drive the same tools locally. The project is young and maintained by one author; the README lists macOS 13 or newer on Apple silicon and warns that the automation interfaces may still change.
+- Screenshots of a region, window or the full screen, with pen, arrows, shapes and highlights added before saving.
+- OCR on the Mac with Control-Option-T, for text in a paused video, a dialog or a locked PDF.
+- A ruler (Control-Option-R) that reads distances in points and in physical pixels.
+- Live crops that pin part of the screen above other windows.
+- Keep-awake sessions that end on a timer, a time of day, charging state or when a process exits.
+- Snap zones, window rules for new apps, and workspaces that put apps back on the right displays.
+
+Pointer tools add crosshairs and click rings, and a shortcut guide reads the menu shortcuts of the front app. Rectangle bindings import with one button. Tiling managers such as yabai and Amethyst pull windows back out of Plonk's zones, so you use one or the other.
+
+A `plonk` command and an MCP server with 22 tools let scripts and AI agents use the same features over a local API. The developer says there is no account and no telemetry, and the update check is the only outbound connection.
+
+Version 0.4.3 comes from one author. Its shortcuts, zone files and workspaces are settled, but the MCP tool names and HTTP API are not yet fixed. It needs macOS 13 and runs on Apple silicon only. Builds are signed with a self-made certificate and not notarized, so a manual download needs its quarantine flag cleared. Each release carries a GitHub attestation you can check with `gh attestation verify`.

-Plug wraps Hype Machine, the music-blog aggregator, in a dedicated Mac player for discovering and playing the tracks it collects. It suits people who already follow Hype Machine and want playback outside a browser tab.
+Plug plays music from Hype Machine, a music blog aggregator, in a window of its own on the Mac. It requires a Hype Machine account. Its sections are Popular, Favorites, Latest, Blogs, Feed, Genres, Friends and Search.
-The current version is distributed through the Mac App Store and requires macOS 12 or later. Development has been quiet since 2024, and the app depends entirely on the Hype Machine service remaining available.
+From the app you can search for songs, mark them as favourites and follow artists. Popular has Now, Last Week, No Remixes and Only Remixes views, and Latest has All, Freshest, No Remixes and Only Remixes. Feed has All, Friends and Blogs. Favorites holds playlists named All, Up, Down and Weird, and search results sort by Newest, Most Favorites or Most Reblogged.
+
+Settings has three on-off options: show notifications when changing tracks, hide tracks that are unavailable, and prevent sleep while music plays.
+
+The current version, 3.6.0, is free on the Mac App Store and needs macOS 12.4 or later. For macOS 10.15, the README links an older 3.4.1 build as a ZIP. Localization is not planned.

-Podman Desktop provides a graphical view of container workloads and images. It helps set up and operate container development environments without keeping every task in a terminal.
+Podman Desktop puts your containers, images, pods and Kubernetes clusters in one window. You build an image, start a container or pod from it and debug it without typing every command yourself.
-Extensions and Kubernetes tooling can broaden the workflow. macOS downloads are available for supported processor architectures.
+On first launch it checks for the Podman engine and offers to install it, then helps you create a Podman machine, the Linux virtual machine that runs containers on a Mac. It keeps Podman updated afterwards. A menu bar icon shows the engine's status and switches the active Kubernetes context.
+
+- Pods can run on the local engine or in Kubernetes, and a pod can be converted to run on Kubernetes.
+- Besides Podman, it manages the Docker engine, Lima virtual machines and crc.
+- It can deploy to local or remote Kubernetes clusters.
+- Proxy settings and OCI image registries are configured in the app.
+- Extensions create local Kubernetes clusters with Kind, which comes built in, or Minikube.
+
+The project recommends the DMG installer, which bundles Podman and the Podman CLI. Homebrew installs the app and the engine too, but the documentation advises against it because the stability of Homebrew installs is not guaranteed. If Podman already came from Homebrew, remove it before using the DMG. Releases come as Universal, Apple silicon and Intel builds. Air-gapped versions for Apple silicon and Intel are also offered.
+
+Docker Desktop is built around the Docker engine. Podman Desktop centers on Podman, though it can also manage a Docker engine you already run. Its Docker compatibility feature lets your Docker commands and tools run on the Podman engine without reconfiguration.

-PortKiller answers the familiar "address already in use" problem without a trip to lsof.

-Ports is a menu bar app that lists the network ports open on your Mac, with the process name, protocol, and whether each port is local-only or exposed to the network. It also gives a risk indicator, lets you pin favourites, search and filter, and terminate a process from the menu. It is for developers who need to find out which process is holding a port.
+Click the network icon Ports adds to the menu bar to see the open ports on your Mac, grouped by what is using them: development tools, web servers, databases, games, media, chat and call apps, and macOS services. Each row gives the port number, protocol, process name and process ID. It also says whether the port is local-only, marked 127, or reachable from other devices on your network, marked with an asterisk.
-It requires macOS 13 or later. The release zip is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple. The project has one release, 0.1.0, from January 2026.
+A colored dot rates each port. Green means a known process on localhost, blue a recognized app, orange anything exposed to the network and gray a process Ports does not recognize. Click a row for details, hover over it to kill its process or pin the port, and right-click for more actions.
+
+The only release so far, 0.1.0 from January 2026, is a ZIP with an Apple silicon (arm64) app signed with a Developer ID. It declares macOS 13 or later, and there is no Intel build. The README shows how to build and run it yourself with `swift build`.
+
+Command-R refreshes the list, Command-F jumps to search, where you can find a port by number or name, and Escape clears the search. Ports builds the list from the output of `lsof`, can start at login, and checks GitHub for new releases.

-Postgres.app packages PostgreSQL servers, command-line tools and common extensions such as PostGIS and pgvector inside one Mac application. Its window lists your local servers so you can create, start and stop them without managing launch scripts, and several PostgreSQL versions can run side by side.
+Postgres.app packages a PostgreSQL server as an ordinary Mac app. Move the app to Applications, open it and click Initialize, and a server starts on localhost port 5432. It uses your macOS user name, with no password and a database of the same name.
-It is aimed at local development rather than production hosting. The project site publishes the current downloads, while older builds and pre-releases remain on GitHub.
+The app window lists your servers so you can start and stop them, and a menu bar item shows what is running. Double-click a database to open it in `psql`. The command-line tools and header files sit inside the bundle; one optional command adds them to your `PATH`.
+
+Each build carries PostGIS, and depending on the PostgreSQL version also pgvector, pgRouting, wal2json, pldebugger and a JavaScript language extension. Minor PostgreSQL updates can install automatically.
+
+The downloads page has one build per PostgreSQL major version, from 14 to 18, and a larger one that holds all of them so different versions can run side by side. Every current build is Universal and needs macOS 10.15 or later; the PostgreSQL 18 download is notarized by Apple. A version 3 beta with PostgreSQL 19 needs macOS 11, and older releases stay on GitHub.
+
+If PostgreSQL is already installed through Homebrew, MacPorts or the EnterpriseDB installer, the project suggests removing that copy first. For a graphical client, the project points to pgAdmin 4, an open-source client, and Postico, a commercial Mac app from the same developers; `psql` comes in the box.

-PPSSPP runs PSP software through an emulator with a graphical interface. Its settings cover controls, rendering, and other parts of the emulated environment.
+PPSSPP plays PSP games on the Mac from ISO or CSO files that you make from your own UMD discs. No games come with the app, and it needs no PSP BIOS file, since it emulates the console's system software at a high level.
-Game files are supplied separately. The project distributes a macOS build, while the source and bundled components retain their respective license notices.
+- Games can render well above the PSP's original resolution, with texture scaling, anisotropic filtering and post-processing shaders for color and brightness.
+- Save states store a game at any moment and load it back later.
+- Rewind keeps an in-memory snapshot every few seconds so you can step back after a mistake. It is off by default because it uses a lot of memory.
+- Keyboard keys and external controllers map to PSP buttons, with extra bindings for fast-forward, rapid fire and swapping the analog stick with the d-pad.
+- Save data copied from a real PSP carries over, so you can continue a game started on the handheld.
+
+On the Mac, PPSSPP keeps its user data in `.config/ppsspp` inside your home folder, laid out like a PSP Memory Stick. You install it from a DMG by dragging the app to Applications. The free 1.20.4 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+PPSSPP Gold is a paid build for Windows, macOS and Android. The FAQ says it works the same as the free version and exists to fund development.

-Predator is a macOS screensaver that shows the current time in segmented red glyphs modelled on the countdown display from the Predator films. The project's README explains how to read the digits, and the options cover the clock colour, a 12- or 24-hour format, and hiding extra lines for a look closer to the film prop.
+Predator turns the Mac's screensaver into a clock drawn in the red alien glyphs of the countdown device from the Predator film. The README has a diagram showing how the symbols map to digits, so with a little practice you can read the time from them.
-It installs as a `.saver` bundle from the GitHub releases page and requires macOS 11.5 or newer. Version 1.0.7 was released in May 2025.
+The settings are few. You can pick any colour for the glyphs, switch between a 12-hour clock with AM and PM and a 24-hour one, and hide some extra lines for a look closer to the film.
+
+The download is a ZIP holding `Predator.saver`, a Universal bundle for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 11.5 or newer. Double-clicking the file installs it. macOS then blocks it as coming from an unidentified developer, and the README walks you through allowing it with Open Anyway in the security settings. If macOS calls the file damaged instead, the developer suggests downloading it again with Safari. Quit and reopen System Settings after installing or updating so the new version loads.
+
+To remove it, right-click Predator in the screensaver list and choose Delete Predator, or delete `Predator.saver` from a Screen Savers folder in Library. The latest release, 1.0.7, came out in May 2025.

+- The model spins on a turntable. A button pauses it, and you can orbit and zoom with a mouse or trackpad.
+- An overlay gives triangle and object counts and the model's dimensions.
+- Bambu Studio and OrcaSlicer projects sit on the printer's own bed in their filament colours, with printer, nozzle, layer height and infill listed. After slicing, the overlay adds estimated print time and filament weight.
+- Projects with several plates show one plate at a time, with a control to page between them.
+- Files with several mesh objects or component assemblies, from Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer and others, are handled.
+
+The brush tool's colour painting, applied to a region within one mesh, is not read yet; colours assigned per object are. Boolean negative parts are left out of the render.
+
+After moving the app to Applications, open it once, then turn on PreviewExtension and ThumbnailExtension under Privacy & Security, Extensions, Quick Look in System Settings. If Quick Look ignores the files, `qlmanage -r` resets its cache. You can also drop a file onto the app window, where the arrow keys step between plates.
+
+The release is a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it needs macOS 13 or later. From version 1.0.18 the app updates itself through Sparkle and checks each download's signature before installing.

-Prism Launcher keeps Minecraft setups in separate instances. This makes it easier to maintain different versions, mod selections, and launch settings without mixing their files.
+Prism Launcher keeps each Minecraft setup in its own instance. You create an instance, add mods or a modpack, and launch that setup.
-The launcher does not include a Minecraft license. Its macOS releases provide a desktop interface for managing an existing game account and installations.
+Every instance has its own settings, mods and configuration, so a heavily modded pack and a plain game can exist side by side. Individual mods install and update from Modrinth and CurseForge inside the launcher, and it also installs and updates whole modpacks for you. You can manage more than one account.
+
+The launcher is built with Qt and has no embedded web browser. You can customize its menu and switch to a custom theme.
+
+Prism Launcher started as a fork of MultiMC and is not endorsed by that project. It is not affiliated with Mojang or Microsoft.
+
+The macOS download is a ZIP or DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Development builds of the latest code are offered too, and the project warns that they can be unstable. The launcher code is under GPL 3.0 only, and the logo and related artwork under CC BY-SA 4.0.

-ProfileCreator builds `.mobileconfig` configuration profiles, the files Mac administrators deploy through device management or install by hand to apply settings and restrictions. Instead of hand-editing property lists, you pick payloads and fill in their settings in the app, which can produce standard or customized profiles.
+ProfileCreator builds configuration profiles, the files Mac administrators upload to device management to apply settings and restrictions. You pick a payload, add only the preferences you intend to manage with the plus button, and fill in their values. Everything else in the payload stays unmanaged.
-The available payloads come from manifests maintained in the separate ProfileManifests project, which is where new settings are contributed. The app requires macOS 11 or later; releases are still numbered 0.x, with 0.3.7 published in December 2024 on GitHub and as a Homebrew cask.
+That is the main difference from Profile Manager, Apple Configurator 2 and MDM consoles. When you turn on a payload there, many of its preferences switch on with it and often cannot be left out.
+
+- You can switch the editor between the form view and the XML the profile will contain.
+- Third-party apps such as Google Chrome have their own payloads, so you do not have to look up their preference keys.
+- When a preference depends on another one, the editor says so. Preferences with unresolved dependencies are left out of the exported profile.
+- Exported profiles can be signed with a certificate from the Keychain, which makes them read-only.
+- Third-party payloads can be written in MCX style or exported as a plain `.plist` for an MDM's Custom Settings payload.
+
+The payloads and preferences come from the separate ProfileManifests project, and new settings are contributed there. ProfileCreator's wiki marks some payloads as having known issues or not yet implemented. The app requires macOS 11 or later.

-Proton VPN's Mac application manages connections to the Proton VPN service. It provides server selection and connection settings in a desktop interface.
+Proton VPN encrypts your Mac's internet connection by sending it through Proton's servers. Sign in, then connect to the fastest server for your location or pick any server your plan includes.
-The client source is published in the combined Apple-platform repository. The service requires an account, and available servers and features depend on the selected plan.
+You need a Proton account, and a free plan exists. Proton Mail users already have one. A kill switch blocks traffic if the VPN connection drops, and the app protects against DNS and IPv6 leaks. Paid Plus and Unlimited plans add more:
+
+- Secure Core sends traffic through servers in Switzerland, Iceland or Sweden first.
+- NetShield filters domains known for malware and can block ads and trackers.
+- Plus servers give access to popular streaming services.
+- Up to 10 devices connect at the same time.
+
+Proton says it keeps no logs that identify what you do online, and that its apps are audited by outside firms.
+
+Version 6.1.0 requires macOS 14 or later. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. One GPL-3.0 repository holds the code for the Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple TV apps. Building it yourself needs a separate repository of secrets and a paid Apple developer account for the VPN entitlements.
+
+CyberGhost's pricing page lists paid plans from one month to two years, each with a money-back guarantee. Proton VPN lets you connect on the free plan before deciding whether to pay.

-PrusaSlicer converts 3D models into instructions for supported printers. Arrange parts, choose material and quality settings, and inspect the resulting layers before printing.
+PrusaSlicer turns a 3D model into the print instructions a printer follows, then sends the result to the machine. It handles both filament (FDM) printers and resin (mSLA) printers, and ships profiles for printers from many manufacturers besides Prusa.
-Its profile system helps repeat successful configurations while retaining detailed controls for more specialized prints.
+You can set print parameters for the whole job or change them for single layers. Before slicing, objects can be painted, cut and arranged on the bed. Three modes, Simple, Advanced and Expert, decide how many settings the interface shows.
+
+- One session can hold several projects, each with several beds that keep their own settings.
+- Multi-material printing is supported.
+- A 3D preview shows the generated toolpaths layer by layer before you print.
+- A command-line interface runs slicing without the GUI, for scripted setups.
+
+Slicing runs on the Mac and needs no account. Print files can go to a printer over the local network, and the optional PrusaConnect and Printables integrations add online services for those who want them. Profiles for Prusa printers and filaments update through the built-in updater.
+
+The program grew out of Slic3r and is developed by Prusa Research under the AGPL-3.0. The GitHub DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed and notarized, with macOS 10.13 set as its minimum version.

-Pulsar continues the Atom editor with a community-maintained application and package ecosystem. It offers a flexible workspace for editing source code and text.
+Pulsar picks up the Atom editor after GitHub sunset it in 2022. You open a single file, a project folder or several projects in one window, then split the editor into panes to work on files side by side.
-Packages and themes can tailor the editor to different languages and habits. Upstream releases include separate macOS builds for Intel and Apple Silicon.
+- A built-in package manager finds and installs packages, and you can publish your own.
+- Language servers add autocompletion and code navigation.
+- Multiple cursors, snippets and semantic selection speed up editing.
+- Git integration switches branches, stages changes, resolves merge conflicts and can show open GitHub pull requests.
+
+Pulsar runs on Electron. Its appearance and behaviour change through JavaScript and CSS in your own configuration files, and nearly every part can be adjusted that way. The default setup is usable without any of it.
+
+Releases include separate disk images and ZIPs for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, named Silicon and Intel, next to Windows and Linux builds. The current version, 1.133.1, came out in November 2026.
+
+If you are weighing it against Sublime Text or Visual Studio Code, Pulsar's difference is where it comes from: it carries on Atom's hackable package model, and its community maintains it under the MIT license.

-Pulse shows live readings from your Mac in the menu bar: processor load, memory and swap, temperatures, fan speeds, network and disk throughput, GPU use, power draw and battery health. Pin the metrics you care about next to the clock and open the dropdown for the full set.
+Pulse puts live readings from your Mac next to the clock. You pin the metrics you want in the menu bar, and clicking the icon opens a dropdown with a summary for every group. The app has no Dock icon and no window.
-It is modelled on the Vitals extension for GNOME. The prebuilt download is for Apple silicon Macs; Intel users need to build from source, and sensors a machine lacks are simply hidden.
+- CPU load, overall and per core, with an optional small graph in the menu bar.
+- Memory and swap in use, and free disk space with read and write speeds.
+- Chip temperatures, fan speeds and GPU load.
+- Network upload and download speeds with running totals.
+- Power drawn by the CPU, GPU and Neural Engine.
+- Battery charge, health, cycle count, temperature and time remaining.
+
+Sections for sensors a Mac does not have are hidden, so a fanless MacBook Air shows no fan readings. Settings sit in the same dropdown: an update interval of 1, 2, 3 or 5 seconds, Celsius or Fahrenheit, GB or GiB, and launch at login. Pulse reads sensors as a normal user and never asks for an admin password.
+
+The idea comes from Vitals, a GNOME extension, rebuilt for the Mac in Go. Version 1.0.6 is an Apple silicon ZIP for macOS 13 or later. Apple has not signed it, so you clear the quarantine flag with `xattr` before the first launch. On an Intel Mac you install through the Homebrew tap, which builds Pulse locally, or build it yourself. Intel temperature and fan readings have not been tested and can be missing or wrong.
+
+iStat Menus covers the same sensors and adds history graphs, lists of the apps using the most resources, and fan speed control. Pulse's README lists live readings and one chart, the small CPU graph.

-PureMac groups several maintenance tasks into one desktop app, including application management, cache inspection, and storage exploration. It presents cleanup choices so you can review what will be affected.
+PureMac scans your Mac for space you can win back and shows every finding before anything is removed. Smart Scan goes category by category: system junk, user caches, mail attachments, Xcode data, Homebrew, npm and Docker caches, and files that are large or old. You tick what should go and confirm.
-Deleting caches or app data can change application behavior. Keep the review step deliberate and consult the project's explanations of its cleanup boundaries.
+- The uninstaller finds an app's preferences, caches, containers, launch agents and logs and moves them to the Trash with the app.
+- Orphan Finder lists files in `~/Library` left by apps you already deleted.
+- Space Explorer measures folders, and Duplicate Finder groups identical files by content hash.
+- Protection checks Gatekeeper, FileVault, the firewall and System Integrity Protection. It reports settings and does not scan for malware.
+
+How files leave depends on the tool. Uninstalls, orphans and duplicates go to the Trash. Category cleanup, scheduled cleaning and emptying the Trash delete permanently. PureMac shows purgeable space but never offers to remove it, since macOS reclaims that itself.
+
+A complete scan needs Full Disk Access; without it some categories come back partial. Local scans and cleanup work offline, and only Homebrew app updates use the network. The developer says the app sends no telemetry.
+
+CleanMyMac bundles similar cleanup with malware removal and is sold by MacPaw. PureMac is free under the MIT license, and the code that decides what gets deleted is open to read.
+
+Version 3.2.0 comes as a DMG or ZIP with a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized. It needs macOS 13 or later.

-PureSnitch shows outgoing network activity, including a world map of destinations, and lets you write allow and block rules, subscribe to blocklists and try DNS over HTTPS. Enforcement is optional and uses the built-in `pf` packet filter through a privileged helper.
+PureSnitch lists the connections your Mac has open, grouped by the process that made them, with upload and download rates for each app. Sort and filter the table to see which hosts a program talks to, or glance at the menu bar item for current throughput and a five-minute traffic graph.
-It is early software: the project notes that current blocking is host-wide rather than per app, because per-process filtering needs a Network Extension entitlement that the shipping build lacks. Follow its instructions to disable enforcement and remove the helper before uninstalling.
+Blocking is a separate switch. Enforcement is off until an administrator turns it on, and then rules that deny IPv4 addresses, address ranges in CIDR form and ports go into the macOS `pf` packet filter. Those rules cover the whole Mac. The release cannot block one app and leave another alone, because per-process filtering needs a Network Extension entitlement that the shipping build does not have.
+
+- An experimental DNS proxy on loopback forwards queries over DNS over HTTPS to Cloudflare, Quad9, Google or your own server. Only clients you point at it by hand use it.
+- Blocklists from 1Hosts, OISD, StevenBlack and HaGeZi apply to that proxy.
+- The rules manager can search, enable, disable and delete rules, but new persistent rules come only from DNS proxy alerts.
+- Home, Public Wi-Fi and Lockdown profiles are stored labels; only Default is enforced.
+
+A privileged helper does the monitoring, so the app has to sit in /Applications and you approve it under Login Items & Extensions. Before uninstalling, turn Enforcement off and choose Remove Helper. The developer says the app sends no telemetry and needs no account.
+
+Little Snitch, which PureSnitch imitates in layout, pops up an alert whenever an app tries to connect, so you can allow or deny it. PureSnitch shows its alerts only for requests sent to its DNS proxy. Its code is MIT-licensed, and the signed, notarized DMG is a Universal build for macOS 13 or later.

-qBittorrent manages torrent downloads through a desktop interface. It provides controls for queues, priorities, and transfer behavior.
+qBittorrent downloads files over BitTorrent from torrent files and magnet links, and keeps every transfer in one window where you can queue them and set their order. Pick which files inside a torrent to fetch and set their priority, or tell it to download pieces in order.
-The source is GPL-2.0-or-later with an OpenSSL exception; distributed binaries use GPL-3.0-or-later because of included assets. The upstream download page provides the macOS build.
+- A built-in search engine queries several torrent sites at once, with categories such as books, music or software.
+- RSS feeds are supported, with download filters that accept regular expressions.
+- Speed limits can follow a bandwidth scheduler, and IP filtering reads eMule and PeerGuardian lists.
+- A Web UI gives remote control from a browser and looks much like the desktop window.
+- A torrent creation tool makes new torrents from your own files.
+
+DHT, peer exchange, local peer discovery, encrypted connections and UPnP or NAT-PMP port forwarding are supported. Peer countries come from the DB-IP Lite database.
+
+The project describes itself as an open-source alternative to µTorrent, with a µTorrent-like interface. µTorrent now ships three Mac editions, one of which plays media while it downloads. qBittorrent stays a single client with no ads.
+
+The download page says the macOS version is barely supported, because the project has no active macOS developers or contributors. Both Mac DMGs, one per libtorrent series, are on 5.2.3, while Windows and Linux have 5.3.0. Each needs macOS 13 or later, holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, and is not notarized by Apple. Source code is GPL-2.0-or-later with an OpenSSL exception, and the binaries are GPL-3.0-or-later because they bundle GPLv3 images.

-QCAD Community Edition provides an open-source core for drafting plans and technical drawings. Precision tools help place geometry and annotate dimensions consistently.
+QCAD Community Edition draws 2D plans and technical drawings in DXF files. You place lines, arcs, circles, ellipses, splines and polylines with snapping to endpoints, centres, intersections, tangents or typed coordinates, then annotate them with text, hatches and dimensions.
-The download includes a trial of commercial add-ons; remove those add-ons as described by the project to use the GPL community edition. Professional features are separate.
+- Layers and blocks organise a drawing, with nested blocks and dockable lists for both.
+- Dimensions cover aligned, linear, radius, diameter and angle measurements, plus leaders.
+- Printing works to a fixed scale such as 1:100, with a print preview, and drawings export to PDF and bitmap images.
+- An ECMAScript interface creates and changes entities and can add new interactive tools.
+
+The macOS download is a trial of QCAD Professional. It runs for 15 minutes at a time and can be restarted. The commercial add-ons can be removed to leave the GPL Community Edition, which keeps only the basic CAD features. DWG files, hierarchical layers, external references, polyline offsets and poster printing belong to the paid editions. The Community Edition saves DXF R15 (2000).
+
+It is listed here as an alternative to AutoCAD for 2D drafting with layers, blocks and dimensions. The QCAD source code is GPLv3, and builds from it need Qt 5 or Qt 6.
+
+QCAD 27.0.3 comes as separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, built for macOS 12.0 or later, with other packages for macOS 14.4 and later. The Apple silicon DMG is signed with RibbonSoft's Developer ID and notarized.

-QGIS brings map layers, geospatial analysis, and layout tools into a desktop workspace. Combine datasets, style geographic features, and investigate relationships between locations.
+QGIS opens geographic data as layers on a map. You add a shapefile, a GeoPackage or a PostGIS table, style it, analyze it and lay out the result for printing or PDF.
-It supports research, mapping, and planning projects. The official download page provides signed macOS installers for stable and long-term releases.
+- Raster, vector, mesh and point-cloud data load through GDAL, OGR and MDAL, including GeoTIFF, NetCDF and LAS/LAZ files.
+- Layers in different coordinate reference systems are reprojected on the fly.
+- The Processing toolbox has more than 200 built-in algorithms and reaches over 1,000 more through GDAL, SAGA, GRASS and Orfeo Toolbox, with a model designer to chain them.
+- Print layouts fix scale, extent and decorations, and Atlas turns one layout into a whole series of maps.
+- PyQGIS scripting and a public plugin repository extend the app.
+
+Web services such as WMS, WFS and ArcGIS REST sit in the same browser panel as local files. You can also digitize new features and georeference scanned maps.
+
+Two Mac versions are offered. The long-term release, currently 3.44, is meant for people who value stability, while the regular release, 4.2, gets new features first. Both are all-in-one installers for Intel and Apple silicon Macs, and QGIS says its macOS installers are signed and notarized. They are large: the 4.2 DMG is about 1.6 GB.
+
+QGIS is free from qgis.org under the GPL, version 2 or any later version. Its source and installers for Windows and Linux come from the same page.

-Qingjian (青简) is a pinyin input method written in Rust. It types Chinese as you would expect, with whole-sentence input, abbreviations, typo correction, shuangpin and wubi, and adds a single translated word in English, Japanese or Spanish next to each candidate so vocabulary practice happens during ordinary typing.
+Qingjian (青简) turns pinyin into Chinese characters, and next to each candidate it prints a short translation in a language you are learning. Type kaifa and the list shows 开发 with "v. develop" beside it, in a smaller, lighter line.
-Conversion, dictionary lookups and habit learning run on the device, and typing and vocabulary statistics stay local. An optional cloud suggestion feature, off by default, sends nearby text to an AI provider you configure yourself. The macOS version requires macOS 13 and is still described as a beta.
+The input side comes first. Qingjian handles whole sentences, initials-only abbreviations, typo correction, fuzzy pinyin, shuangpin and wubi, and it learns from the words and sequences you pick. You choose the study language under General in its settings: English, Japanese, Spanish, Vietnamese or German, one at a time, or none. Translations you have seen only a few times appear in orange and turn grey once they are familiar. A Statistics page counts how much you typed today, over seven days and in total, and keeps a record of vocabulary.
+
+The project says conversion, dictionary lookups and habit learning happen on the Mac, and that the statistics are not uploaded. Qingjian needs no account. Cloud suggestions are off by default; turned on, they send the current input and nearby text straight to an AI provider you set up yourself. The update check and the input log can both be switched off.
+
+The macOS build is still a beta. It needs macOS 13 or later, and the download page offers separate packages for Apple silicon and Intel, each close to 100 MB. They carry no Apple developer signature, so the first launch has to be allowed in Privacy & Security. Versions for Windows, Linux and Android come from the same Rust core. The code is GPL-3.0-or-later; the name and logo are not covered by it.

-QLMarkdown adds a Quick Look extension for Markdown and related text formats. Its settings control how previews render, including themes and optional support for diagrams and mathematical expressions.
+QLMarkdown renders Markdown files as formatted pages when you select one in Finder and press Space. Besides `.md` it previews R Markdown (`.rmd`, without running the R code), MDX without the JSX, Quarto `.qmd`, Cursor `.mdc` rules, API Blueprint files and TextBundle packages.
-It is a preview extension with a configuration app, not a standalone writing editor. The upstream guide explains how to enable the extension after installation.
+Parsing uses GitHub's cmark-gfm library, so tables, task lists, footnotes and strikethrough follow GitHub Flavored Markdown. QLMarkdown adds its own extensions on top, each switched on in the settings app:
+
+- Code in fenced blocks gets syntax highlighting.
+- Math between dollar signs renders with MathJax, and Mermaid blocks become diagrams that follow light or dark mode.
+- Emoji shortcodes such as `:smile:` turn into glyphs or GitHub's images.
+- A YAML header at the top of a file can show as a table, for all Markdown files or only `.rmd` and `.qmd`.
+- A table of contents sidebar appears when the preview window is wide enough.
+
+MathJax and Mermaid can load from a CDN, which needs an internet connection, or be embedded in the preview. Local images only show when the inline images option is on, because Quick Look extensions cannot read other files on their own.
+
+The app itself only sets preview options, and its built-in editor exists to try them out on a file. You have to launch it once so macOS registers the extension. The 1.5.7 release needs macOS 12, runs natively on Apple silicon and Intel, and is signed and notarized. The bundle also includes a command-line tool for converting Markdown to HTML and an experimental Shortcuts action.

-QOwnNotes keeps notes as local text files and adds a searchable interface for organizing them. Markdown editing and configurable panels help shape the workspace around your notes.
+QOwnNotes edits a folder of Markdown files: you point it at a directory, and each note is a plain text file you can also open in any other editor. The first line of a note becomes its file name, and renaming follows edits to that line unless you switch the behavior off. When another program changes a file, QOwnNotes reloads it and can show what changed.
-Optional Nextcloud and ownCloud integration can connect the app to an existing sync setup. Local note editing does not require those services.
+- Search matches any part of a word and highlights the hits inside the note.
+- Notes can link to each other with `[[Note]]` links, which get auto-completion and backlinks.
+- Tags can be nested, notes can sit in subfolders, and you can switch between several note folders.
+- Notes can be encrypted with AES-256, or with PGP or Keybase through scripts.
+- A script repository installs add-ons from inside the app, and built-in AI support works with providers such as OpenAI and Groq.
+
+Sync is left to you. Notes in a Nextcloud or ownCloud folder sync through that server, which also gives access to older versions and trashed notes once the QOwnNotes server app is installed. Syncthing or Dropbox work too, and imports cover Evernote and Joplin.
+
+Bear also writes Markdown notes, organized with tags and synced through iCloud between Mac, iPhone and iPad. QOwnNotes keeps loose files in folders you choose and runs on Linux and Windows as well.
+
+The GitHub disk image `QOwnNotes.dmg` holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel and needs macOS 13. It is not notarized, so the first launch goes through Open Anyway in the Security settings. `QOwnNotesQt5.dmg` is the legacy Qt5 build, which you update by hand.

-QtScrcpy shows an Android device's screen in a desktop window and passes mouse and keyboard input back to it, without rooting the phone. It connects over USB or across the local network once USB debugging is enabled, and can drive several devices at once from a single window.
+QtScrcpy puts an Android phone's screen in a window on your Mac, and your mouse and keyboard drive the phone from there. Turn on USB debugging, plug the phone in, click USB connect, then start the service. The phone needs Android 5.0 or later, and it does not need root.
-Beyond plain mirroring, it supports custom key-mapping scripts that translate keyboard and mouse actions into touches, which is mostly used for playing mobile games on a computer. The macOS downloads on the releases page bundle their dependencies, including ADB, and come as separate Intel and arm64 disk images.
+For a cable-free session, the main window reads the phone's IP address, starts adbd on it and connects over the local network. After that the USB cable can come out.
+
+- Dropping an APK on the mirror window installs it, and dropping other files sends them to the phone.
+- Recording saves the screen to a video file, with an option to record in the background without showing the window.
+- The clipboard syncs in both directions, and shortcuts cover Home, Back, volume and power.
+- Group control lets you operate all your connected phones at the same time.
+- Sound from the phone plays on the Mac through sndcpy, on Android 10 or later.
+
+Key-mapping scripts turn keys and mouse moves into touches. Scripts for TikTok and some games ship with the app, and pressing the tilde key toggles mapping mode.
+
+QtScrcpy is built on Genymobile's scrcpy, and swaps its SDL interface for a Qt window with a button for each connection step.
+
+The release page offers separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, each with ADB and its other dependencies bundled. The Apple silicon app is ad hoc signed and not notarized, so Gatekeeper rejects it on first open.

-The app installs a Spotlight extension and media extensions that plug these formats into the system frameworks, much as Perian once did for QuickTime. The README states GPL version 2 or later. Disk images are published on GitHub, and the developer also distributes it through the Mac App Store.
+- Containers such as Matroska, WebM, AVI, Windows Media, Ogg, Flash Video, Real Media and MXF.
+- Video codecs including VP8, VP9, AV1, H.266, Theora, HAP, DivX and Cinepak.
+- Audio codecs such as Vorbis, WavPack, ATRAC and Windows Media Audio.
+- Spotlight metadata, so dimensions, duration and codecs appear in Get Info and files can be found by subtitle text and chapter titles.
+
+Version 3 does this with two Media Extensions for AVFoundation, one for formats and one for codecs, plus a Spotlight extension. Perian once filled the same gap for the old QuickTime framework. You do not need to keep the app open afterwards. Its Refresh button clears the thumbnail caches, and you may have to relaunch Finder or log out before new thumbnails show up. Spotlight then re-indexes your media, so CPU and disk use run high for a few minutes.
+
+Thumbnails use embedded cover art when a file has it, otherwise a frame about a quarter of the way in. The File menu can add, replace or remove cover art in MKV, WebM, MP4 and unencrypted M4V files. A Finder service opens a contact sheet for the selected video.
+
+Quick Look previews have no subtitles, chapters or audio track switching. The installation guide lists macOS 26 Tahoe for the current release, and release 2.24 remains for macOS 12 and later. The app is Universal and notarized, and the same app is on the Mac App Store.

-QuickNetStats sits in the menu bar and updates as soon as the Mac gains or loses its connection, rather than waiting for macOS to notice. It lets you read and copy your IPv4 addresses at a glance and opens a panel with more detail about the current connection.
+QuickNetStats puts the state of your network in the menu bar: whether you are on Wi-Fi, Ethernet or a hotspot, a rough quality rating, and your IPv4 addresses. It changes the moment the Mac connects or drops off, which macOS itself is slow to show. Click either address in the popover to copy it.
-It also gives an estimate of link quality without running a speed test. The app supports macOS 13 and later, but the developer notes that the network quality reading relies on an API available only from macOS 26.
+The quality reading is Good, Moderate or Minimal, worked out without a speed test. The developer says it is a rough estimate, quick to get and less accurate than a real test. It needs macOS 26, while the rest of the app runs on macOS 13 or later.
+
+Version 3 adds a Connection Details section under the addresses. It lists the interface, MAC address, MTU and link speed, routers and subnet, DNS servers and DHCP lease, any active proxies, and Wi-Fi channel, band and security. Every row copies on click. A Live button streams throughput, packets, errors and Wi-Fi signal figures in real time.
+
+Showing the network name and BSSID is opt-in, because macOS ties those to the Location Services permission. In Low Data Mode or on a capped connection such as a phone hotspot, the main view says so. Public IP addresses come from the ipify service.
+
+Hold Command and drag the icon to move it along the menu bar. Settings cover the look, behavior and what the menu bar item shows. Homebrew installs it from the developer's own tap, and the direct download is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-QuickRecorder offers several ways to capture your Mac, from an individual window to an entire display. It includes system-audio capture and presentation features such as pointer emphasis and a camera overlay.
+QuickRecorder records what is on your Mac's screen. You pick a whole display, a single window or one app, and it can also record an iPhone or iPad at the same time as the Mac's own screen. The recorder is built on Apple's ScreenCaptureKit.
-Some recording options depend on the macOS version. Its settings can keep microphone and system audio in separate tracks for later editing.
+- On macOS 13 and later it records sound from any app without installing an audio driver.
+- On macOS 14 it supports Presenter Overlay, which places your camera image over the recording live. macOS 12 and 13 get a floating camera window instead.
+- It can highlight the mouse pointer and magnify part of the screen.
+- It can save HEVC with Alpha, a format that keeps transparency. The developer says only iMovie and Final Cut Pro read it for now.
+
+By default the microphone is mixed into the main audio track when recording ends. If you plan to edit, turn off "Record Microphone to Main Track" in settings, and the system sound and the microphone arrive as two tracks you can adjust separately. If you close the main panel, clicking the Dock or menu bar icon brings it back.
+
+QuickRecorder needs macOS 12.3 or later, and the DMG on the releases page holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. The developer states the app is not notarized by Apple. It is not sandboxed either, since there are no plans for an App Store version. It can also be installed from the developer's Homebrew tap.

-Quicksilver combines finding an item with choosing an action to perform on it. It can become a quick route to applications, files, and repeated desktop tasks.
+Quicksilver works in panes that you drive from the keyboard. Type a few letters to pick an app, file or bookmark in the first pane, choose what to do with it in the second, and fill a third pane when the action needs another object, such as a destination.
-Its plugin ecosystem extends the available actions. The official website offers downloads matched to supported macOS versions and documentation for getting started.
+Actions go well past launching. You can move, copy, compress or email files, send messages and control music. Quicksilver learns your habits and adjusts what it shows first. Triggers attach a keyboard shortcut or mouse gesture to any action, so a command you repeat needs no typing at all. What it can find comes from catalog entries, listed under Preferences → Catalog, where a Custom section holds your own.
+
+Hundreds of plugins connect it to other apps.
+
+- Mail sends messages through Apple Mail or Gmail.
+- A calculator copies its result to the clipboard.
+- Clipboard and Shelf keep copy history and items you park for later.
+- Browser plugins control Safari, Chrome and Firefox and search their bookmarks and history.
+- Others create Calendar events and reminders, insert emoji, or resize, crop and convert images.
+
+More than ten interface styles, with color themes, change how the panes look.
+
+Version 2.6.0 needs macOS 10.14 or later. Its DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+Alfred also launches apps and finds files from the keyboard. Its workflows, which chain hotkeys, keywords and actions, come with the Powerpack it sells separately. Quicksilver is free and open source under the Apache 2.0 license.

-qutebrowser is a browser for people who prefer to keep their hands on the keyboard. Navigation, tabs, link hints, and settings are driven by Vim-like keybindings and a command line, and the interface stays out of the way of page content.
+qutebrowser is a web browser you drive from the keyboard. Press `o` and type an address to open a page, or type plain words to search, which goes to DuckDuckGo unless you change it. Press `f` and labels appear next to the links and buttons on the page; type a label to click it without reaching for the mouse.
-It renders pages with Qt WebEngine and is configured through a Python file or its built-in settings. GitHub releases provide separate Apple silicon and Intel DMGs; Homebrew disabled its cask in 2026 because the builds fail Gatekeeper checks, so expect to approve the app manually.
+- `hjkl` or the arrow keys scroll, and `H` and `L` go back and forward.
+- `J` and `K` switch tabs, `d` closes one and `u` brings it back.
+- `/` searches the page, with `n` and `N` stepping through matches.
+- `:` opens a command line, and `:help` shows the built-in documentation.
+
+The interface is kept minimal, and the project names dwb and the Vimperator and Pentadactyl add-ons as its inspiration. qutebrowser is written in Python on Qt, and pages render through QtWebEngine. Running `:adblock-update` downloads blocking lists and turns ad blocking on.
+
+Settings changed with `:set` and `:bind` are saved for you. For more control you can write a `config.py` file in Python, and many settings can apply only to sites matching a URL pattern.
+
+The Mac downloads on the releases page are separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The project does not notarize them, so macOS may block the first launch; the install guide suggests right-clicking the app and choosing Open. The bundled QtWebEngine lacks proprietary codecs, so H.264 video needs a self-built QtWebEngine. Updates have to be installed by hand.

-Rancher Desktop brings container management and a local Kubernetes environment to the desktop. It is designed for developing and testing workloads on a personal computer.
+Rancher Desktop runs containers and a local Kubernetes cluster on your Mac. With nerdctl or the Docker CLI you can build, pull and push images and run containers, and a Kubernetes version switch lets you test how an upgrade affects your workloads. On macOS everything runs inside a virtual machine that the app sets up and manages.
-The macOS distribution runs its supporting environment through a virtual machine. Resource settings help adapt the environment to the machine and project.
+The Preferences dialog covers the main choices:
+
+- the container engine, containerd or Docker (moby)
+- the Kubernetes version to run
+- system resources for the virtual machine
+- whether Rancher Desktop starts when you log in
+
+It installs helm, kubectl, nerdctl, docker and Docker Compose. A cluster dashboard shows your local Kubernetes resources, and forwarding a service's port takes one click. The bundled `rdctl` command-line tool can also run a factory reset, which removes most data and the virtual machine.
+
+The app requires macOS 13 Ventura or later on Apple silicon or an Intel CPU with VT-x, plus a persistent internet connection. Kubernetes images download on first start and again whenever you change versions. The documentation recommends 8 GB of memory and 4 CPUs. Separate DMG and ZIP downloads are published for each architecture. The Homebrew cask is not maintained by the Rancher Desktop team, which recommends the DMG from GitHub.
+
+Docker Desktop bundles Docker Engine and Kubernetes as well, and it comes under Docker's plans, from a free Personal tier to paid per-user plans. Rancher Desktop is Apache-2.0 open source from SUSE, and it lets you replace Docker's engine with containerd.

-RansomWhere? monitors file activity for patterns associated with ransomware and can interrupt suspicious processes. Its focus is identifying unexpected encryption rather than maintaining a general app inventory.
+RansomWhere? watches for one thing ransomware has to do: write encrypted files. When a third-party process starts creating encrypted files quickly, RansomWhere? suspends it and shows an alert, and you decide whether it may continue. It judges encryption by measuring file entropy.
-Detection is heuristic and is not a guarantee against every threat. Read the official installation and alert-handling guidance before relying on the tool.
+The alert lists the process name, PID, path and arguments, plus the files it was seen encrypting. From there you can open its code signing details, VirusTotal results and process ancestry. Allow lets the process carry on; Block terminates the suspended instance, and later launches of that program fail. With "Remember my decision" ticked, either choice becomes a rule, which you can review, delete or add by hand in the Rules window.
+
+Legitimate software trips it too. Signal, Chrome updating its Safe Browsing data and antivirus tools installing signature files all write encrypted data. A Notarization Mode in the preferences trusts notarized and Mac App Store apps, which cuts down those prompts. Detection also has gaps: ransomware that sits dormant, encrypts slowly, or writes files that do not look encrypted enough can go unnoticed.
+
+The tool is built on Apple's Endpoint Security framework, so macOS shows an authorization prompt during installation and you must grant RansomWhere? Full Disk Access in System Settings. Version 2.2.0 needs macOS 10.15 or later. Its ZIP holds an installer app that is a Universal build for Apple silicon and Intel, signed by Objective-See and notarized. Uninstalling runs from the status bar menu, and the GitHub repository includes test scripts that trigger an alert safely.

-RawTherapee combines a file browser with a deep RAW processing workspace. Queue several photographs for export after adjusting their exposure, color, and detail.
+RawTherapee turns RAW files from a wide range of cameras into finished images. You open a shot, then work through demosaicing, color and detail settings before saving the result. Edits are non-destructive and run in a 32-bit floating-point engine.
-Processing profiles make repeated edits easier to reuse across a shoot. The project publishes macOS builds alongside its source code.
+The project puts weight on control over demosaicing. You can pick the algorithm, combine two of them on one image, and merge pixel-shift files with automatic ghost masking. It also repairs hot and dead pixels and can subtract dark frames or apply flat-field correction. Besides RAW, it opens high-dynamic-range DNG, JPEG, TIFF and PNG.
+
+Version 5.13 came out in July 2026 and improved the Gamut Compression and Color Appearance & Lighting tools, among others. The Mac download is a ZIP holding a DMG with a Universal app. On Apple silicon it requires macOS 26 Tahoe; Intel Macs need macOS 12 Monterey or later. The app has to sit in /Applications and will refuse to start from anywhere else. A separate `rawtherapee-cli` tool handles processing from the command line.
+
+Adobe Lightroom pairs its editor with a photo library for organizing and sharing, sold on an Adobe plan. RawTherapee is GPL-licensed and, as its README notes, will probably lack side features such as asset management, printing and uploading.

-RClick extends the Finder context menu with actions macOS leaves out: create new text, Markdown, Office or iWork documents from templates, copy a full path, open the selection in any app with arguments, toggle hidden files, send via AirDrop, or delete without using the Trash.
+RClick adds entries to the menu you get when you right-click in Finder. Select a file or folder, open the menu and pick one of the extra actions.
-Favorite folders can also be pinned to the menu. The actions come from a Finder extension that you enable in System Settings after the first launch. The project lists macOS 15.6 or later.
+- New files from templates: plain text, JSON, Markdown, Word, PowerPoint and Excel, plus Pages, Keynote and Numbers.
+- Copy the full path or only the file name.
+- Open the selection in any installed app, with custom arguments and environment variables. Presets cover common editors, terminals and IDEs, and terminals receive the containing folder.
+- Delete without the Trash, after a confirmation that holding Option skips.
+- Show or hide a file, or send it with AirDrop.
+- Pin folders you use often to the menu.
+
+The menu comes from a Finder Sync extension, paired with a menu bar app that holds the settings. After the first launch you may need to switch the extension on under System Settings, Privacy & Security, Extensions. File operations ask for access one folder at a time, and some automation features need the Accessibility permission. The interface follows the system language and comes in English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Spanish and French.
+
+RClick requires macOS 15.6 or later. Release 2.3.3 comes as a DMG or ZIP, and the app in the DMG is built for Apple silicon only, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-Readest is an ebook reader for people who keep a personal library of EPUB and similar files. It focuses on comfortable reading, with layout and typography controls, highlights, notes, and a library view for organising books.
+Readest opens your ebooks and documents in one reader and keeps them in a library you can sort and organize. You drop in EPUB, PDF, MOBI, AZW3, FB2, CBZ, TXT, HTML or Markdown files, then read them in scrolling or page-by-page mode.
-The same app is available on other desktop and mobile platforms, and an optional account can keep reading progress in step between them. The macOS download is a universal DMG on GitHub releases.
+- Highlights, bookmarks and notes stay attached to each book.
+- Full-text search covers one book or the current library shelf.
+- Words can be looked up in built-in dictionaries and Wikipedia, or in local dictionary packs you import.
+- Parallel Read places two books or documents side by side, handy for a text and its translation.
+- Text-to-speech reads aloud, and EPUB 3 media overlays play with the matching text highlighted.
+- OPDS catalogs and Calibre libraries can be browsed from the app.
+
+Font, layout and theme colors are adjustable. The app also offers full keyboard navigation and works with VoiceOver.
+
+Readest runs on Windows, Linux, iOS, Android and the web as well, and it can sync books, reading progress, notes and bookmarks between them. Sync uses a Readest account, and the free plan includes it along with a small cloud storage quota and daily translation allowance; paid plans raise those limits. Progress and notes can also sync with KOReader devices.
+
+The Mac version comes from the App Store or as a Universal DMG on GitHub for Apple silicon and Intel, requiring macOS 12 or later.

-Recordly combines a screen recorder with an editor aimed at product walkthroughs and demo videos. It can suggest zooms on activity, smooth cursor movement, add a webcam bubble, and place the recording in a frame with backgrounds, padding and shadows.
+Recordly captures a display or a single window, with microphone and system audio, and drops you into an editor when you stop. There you turn raw footage into a walkthrough: zooms land on the parts where the cursor is busy, and the frame gets a background and shadow.
-On macOS it captures through ScreenCaptureKit and requires macOS 14 or later; releases include Apple silicon and Intel builds. The project began as a fork of OpenScreen and is licensed under AGPLv3, with its license file adding that the Recordly name and branding may not be reused and that derived code must credit Recordly.
+- Zoom regions can be suggested from cursor activity or placed by hand, alongside trims, speed changes, crops and text, image and figure annotations.
+- The rendered cursor can be resized, smoothed and given motion blur or a click bounce, and on macOS ScreenCaptureKit can leave the real cursor out of the capture.
+- A webcam bubble sits over the recording with adjustable position, size, roundness and shadow, and can scale along with zooms.
+- Frames take wallpapers, solid colors, gradients, blur, padding, rounded corners and aspect ratio presets.
+
+Exports go to MP4 or GIF, with settings for quality, GIF frame rate, looping and output size. Work saves as a `.recordly` project file you can reopen later. Community extensions from the Recordly Marketplace add things like click sounds and device frames.
+
+Screen Studio builds the same kind of auto-zoomed demo, but only for the Mac. Recordly also runs on Windows and Linux, and its source is under the AGPLv3.
+
+On the Mac it records through ScreenCaptureKit and needs macOS 14 or later. Version 1.4.0 has separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads as DMG or ZIP. The project began as a fork of OpenScreen and has since diverged.

-Rectangle moves and resizes windows into useful layouts, including halves, thirds and quarters. Set up keyboard shortcuts or drag windows toward screen edges.
+Rectangle moves and resizes the frontmost window when you press a keyboard shortcut or drag the window to a screen edge. Each shortcut sends the window to a fixed position, such as the left half, a corner quarter, a third or the full screen.
-This entry covers the free, MIT-licensed Rectangle app. The separate Rectangle Pro product has its own feature set and commercial terms.
+Dragging works through snap areas. Pull a window to the left or right edge for a half, to the top to maximise, into a corner for a quarter, or along the bottom edge for thirds. An outline previews the target before you let go.
+
+- Tile in Rows and Tile in Columns arrange the ordinary windows in the current Space on the focused window's display into a grid, and repeated presses cycle through layouts.
+- Cycle stacked windows brings forward each window snapped to the same area in turn.
+- Mouse side buttons can act as shortcuts in place of keys.
+- Ignored apps release Rectangle's shortcuts while they are frontmost, so their own shortcuts keep working.
+
+The current release requires macOS 14 or later. Older versions for macOS 10.15 to 13 and for 10.13 to 10.14 stay on the releases page. Downloads come as a DMG, a ZIP or a PKG, each holding a Universal binary for Apple silicon and Intel. It carries a Developer ID signature and Apple's notarization. Moving windows requires the Accessibility permission in System Settings.
+
+Magnet also snaps windows into halves, thirds and quarters by shortcut or edge drag, but it is sold on the Mac App Store. Rectangle is free under the MIT license. Rectangle Pro is a separate paid upgrade, and the Multitouch app now includes all of it.

-Redis.app lets you run a Redis server on a Mac by opening an app instead of installing Redis separately. The README explains how to add the binaries bundled inside the app to your PATH, and its version numbers follow the Redis version included in each build. It suits developers who need a local Redis for testing.
+Redis.app starts a Redis server when you open it and stops it when you quit, with no separate install. It lives in the menu bar, where the menu shows the bundled Redis version and reads "Running on Port 6379". The server keeps its data in a RedisData folder inside Documents, with logs in a Logs folder below it.
-The release zip declares macOS 10.10 or later, contains an Intel-only (x86_64) build, and is notarized, so it opens without the first-launch override. The project has had no release since November 2017.
+From the same menu you can open redis-cli in a new iTerm window, or in Terminal when iTerm is not installed, and open the logs folder.
+
+The bundle carries redis-server, redis-cli, redis-sentinel, redis-benchmark and the two redis-check tools in `Contents/Resources/Vendor/redis/bin`. To use them from your own shell, add that folder to your PATH, either in your shell profile or with a file in `/etc/paths.d`. The README gives both commands.
+
+The latest build, 4.0.2-build.1 from November 2017, bundles Redis 4.0.2, and none has followed it. The first part of each version number names the Redis release inside; the build number after it tracks changes to the app itself. The ZIP holds an Intel-only (x86_64) app that declares macOS 10.10 or later, so Apple silicon Macs run it through Rosetta 2. That build is Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+José Padilla forked the project from Mongodb.app and adapted it for Redis.

-Redis Pro is a graphical client for working with Redis servers: browse and edit keys, inspect server info and configuration, view the slow log and client list, and connect through SSH. It is written in SwiftUI and takes cues from Sequel Ace's straightforward approach.
+Redis Pro manages a Redis server from a Mac window: you log in, browse the keys and check how the server is running. Its developer borrowed ideas from Sequel Ace, the MySQL client, and from Alibaba Cloud's DMS console.
-The README targets macOS 11 or later and Redis 3 through 6. The latest release on GitHub dates from January 2024, and Homebrew has disabled its cask because the build fails Gatekeeper checks, so expect to approve the app manually.
+- Server info and configuration, and you can change configuration values from the app.
+- The slow log.
+- The client list, where you can kill a connection.
+- Batch deletion of keys.
+- Login through SSH.
+
+The README lists macOS 11 or later and Redis 3.x to 6.x. Under the hood, the SwiftUI app talks to the server through RediStack, a Redis client built on SwiftNIO. Three items stay open on the project's to-do list: SSH key login, a terminal and iPad support.
+
+Development has stalled. Release 3.1.0, from January 2024, is the latest, and its DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel with no usable signature, so Gatekeeper rejects it. Homebrew disabled its redis-pro cask in September 2026 for that reason.

-Redlamp concentrates on developing RAW files, with panels that will be familiar to Lightroom users: basic tone and colour, tone curve, colour mixer and grading, detail, lens corrections and crop. Local adjustments use gradient, brush, colour and luminance ranges, and subject, sky and people masks, and it adds healing, focus stacking, and profiles and presets including film simulations.
+Redlamp opens your RAW files from folders on your disk and develops them in a workspace laid out like Lightroom's Develop module, with the same panel order, slider names and single-key shortcuts. Edits go into small sidecar files beside each photo, so the originals stay untouched.
-The project describes itself as alpha software and is changing quickly. Its README states that the Mac app runs on Apple silicon with macOS 26 or later; signed releases are on GitHub, and the project also targets iPad and iPhone.
+- Global panels cover tone curves, color grading and the color mixer, Basic tone with Texture, Clarity and Dehaze, sharpening and noise reduction, lens corrections, Effects, Upright and cropping.
+- Masks combine gradients, brush strokes, color and luminance ranges, and on-device Subject, Sky, People and Objects selections, each with its own local adjustments.
+- Heal, Clone and Remove clean up spots, and Remove can take out a whole person or object you click.
+- Focus stacking spots bracketed frames in a folder and merges them into a result you keep editing like a raw.
+- Base Looks and Recipes stand in for profiles and presets, including film simulations of 36 looks from 30 stocks.

+The developer tests it with raw files from Canon (CR3), Fujifilm (RAF), Nikon (NEF) and Sony (ARW) cameras, plus Apple ProRAW and Pixel DNG, and it also opens JPEG, HEIC, TIFF and PNG. Albums from Apple Photos can sit in the library beside your folders.
+
+The project is in alpha and changes quickly. It needs an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 26 or later. Releases come as a signed and notarized app on GitHub or through the project's own Homebrew tap, and they update themselves through Sparkle. Versions for iPad and iPhone are planned on the same engine.

-ReiKey scans for keyboard event taps and helps reveal applications listening to keyboard activity. This is useful when reviewing input-related permissions and unfamiliar background software.
+ReiKey finds the programs on your Mac that have installed keyboard event taps, the CoreGraphics hook most Mac keyloggers use to read keystrokes. Run a scan from the app or its menu bar menu, and a window lists each tap with the process that installed it, its target (usually all processes) and whether it only listens or can also filter keys.
-Keyboard utilities can create legitimate event taps too. Treat the results as evidence to investigate rather than automatically labeling every listener as a keylogger.
+After the scan, ReiKey keeps watching. Whenever a new keyboard tap appears it posts a notification, and its Details button opens the scan window with that tap highlighted. Command-click an entry to toggle alerts for that process or reveal it in Finder.
+
+The installer sets up the app and asks how it should start and whether to show a menu bar icon. From Terminal, the binary inside the bundle takes -scan to print every keyboard tap as JSON. ReiKey checks objective-see.com for updates at launch, which you can switch off, and uses Sentry for crash detection, which may add crash-report traffic.
+
+The download page lists OS X 10.13 or later. The 1.4.2 installer is a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+Many taps are harmless. Siri and other parts of macOS install them, and other applications can too, so an entry is a lead to check and does not prove a keylogger. An option hides Apple programs. Keyloggers that capture keys without an event tap go unseen.

-RelaGit is a desktop client for working with Git repositories through a graphical interface instead of the terminal. Its roadmap marks submodule support and a commit graph as done, and it currently drives the Git command-line tool underneath.
+RelaGit puts your Git repositories in a desktop window, with a commit graph and support for submodules. It runs the Git command-line tool underneath, and GitHub, GitLab and Codeberg are built into the client.
-The project labels itself an early beta, and its last release was in April 2026, so expect rough edges. GitHub releases include separate Apple silicon and Intel macOS builds.
+Its main extra is workflows. These are small TypeScript or JavaScript modules kept in `~/.relagit/workflows` that hook into repository events, such as a new commit, and run your own actions. A `pnpm create relagit` command scaffolds a new one. A bundler such as Vite or esbuild can pack a larger workflow and its dependencies into the single module RelaGit loads.
+
+RelaGit is built with Electron and SolidJS, and the same code ships for macOS, Windows and Linux. The Mac downloads are separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel. The project still calls itself an early beta, and version 0.16.11 came out in April 2026.
+
+Fork is a Git client for Mac and Windows. RelaGit adds Linux builds and is free under the LGPL.

-RelayBar keeps SSH tunnels as named profiles in the menu bar, so local, remote and dynamic forwards can be started and stopped without retyping commands. Existing forwarding commands can be imported, and the app runs macOS's own ssh client with the user's normal config and known hosts.
+RelayBar saves your SSH port forwards as named profiles in the menu bar, and one click starts or stops each of them. Paste a forwarding command such as `ssh -N -D 9999 user@server` and it becomes a profile with typed rules.
-Newer versions add a Remote Files workspace for browsing, previewing and uploading files on a host over sftp. Releases ship as a zipped app on GitHub and through the developer's Homebrew tap.
+- One profile can mix local, remote, SOCKS and Unix-socket rules over a single SSH connection.
+- A local TCP forward opens in your default browser with one click.
+- Dropped connections retry with exponential backoff, up to a limit you set in Settings.
+- Startup errors show next to the tunnel that failed.
+
+RelayBar calls macOS's own `/usr/bin/ssh` and `sftp`, so your `~/.ssh/config`, known hosts, keys and SSH agent all apply. It never starts a shell, and import rejects options that could run local commands. SSH runs non-interactively, which means password logins do not work. The app forwards TCP only and leaves the macOS proxy settings alone.
+
+Version 1.6.0 needs macOS 13 or later. The ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and the developer's Homebrew tap installs it too.
+
+Remote Files is a separate workspace. Paste a path or pick a saved host, then browse folders, download files or whole folders, upload a single file, and preview images, Markdown, JSON and MP4 video. Deletion waits five seconds so you can undo it. Search, sync and editing are left out on purpose.

-Reminders MenuBar brings the reminders stored in Apple's Reminders system into a compact menu. Search tasks, filter lists, adjust due dates, or mark an item complete without opening the full Reminders app.
+Reminders MenuBar puts your Apple Reminders in a menu bar window. Click the icon, or press a global shortcut you set, to see what is due and tick items off without opening Reminders.
-It needs permission to access your reminders. Changes use the same underlying reminder store, including accounts synchronized through macOS.
+- New reminders can be typed in plain language, with the due date, list and tags picked out of the text.
+- Due dates, priorities, recurrence, lists and tags can all be edited in place.
+- An upcoming view shows what falls due within a time window you choose.
+- Search runs across every reminder, and lists and tags work as filters.
+- The menu bar item can show an icon, a count, or the next reminder due.
+
+The app works on the system reminder store through Apple's EventKit, so these are the same reminders Apple Reminders shows, and they can sync through iCloud. On first use it asks for access to reminders, which you can manage later under Privacy & Security in System Settings.
+
+Version 2.2.0 needs macOS 12 Monterey or later. It comes as a DMG or a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The interface comes in Turkish, Japanese, Ukrainian and more than a dozen other languages.

-Repose counts down a work interval in the menu bar and dims the screen when it is time to look away. Work and break lengths are adjustable, and every setting lives in the menu.
+Repose runs a countdown in the menu bar while you work, then dims the screen so you look away from it for a while. When the break is over, the next work interval starts on its own. You set the work interval anywhere from 5 to 60 minutes and the break from 20 seconds to 5 minutes.
-Instead of reading your calendar, it pauses while a camera or microphone is active, so calls are not interrupted, and it resets when you step away. The project requires macOS 13 or later.
+Its main trick is meeting detection. Repose asks the hardware whether a camera or microphone is in use, through CoreMediaIO and CoreAudio, and holds the timer while either one is busy. Nothing is tied to a calendar or a list of apps, so a call in Zoom, FaceTime, Teams, Google Meet or a Slack huddle counts the same way, with nothing to set up.
+
+There is no settings window. Pause, resume, restart and every option sit in the menu bar menu, and Sparkle installs updates. Repose requires macOS 13 or later. The release comes as a DMG or ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. It is free under the MIT license.
+
+Idle time is handled too. After five minutes with no keyboard or mouse input the timer stops, and when you come back it starts a fresh work cycle, since time away from the desk already served as a break. A video that keeps the display awake does not count as idle, so reminders still arrive while you watch.

-RetroArch provides a shared interface for configuring and running libretro cores. It brings input mapping, display settings, and content organization into one application.
+RetroArch runs classic games through cores, plug-in emulators and game engines that all share one menu and one set of settings. You download the cores you need, scan your game collection, and RetroArch sorts it by system with thumbnails, so controls and video options are configured once for everything.
-Cores have their own licenses and compatibility requirements. macOS downloads are available for different supported systems.
+- Shaders filter and restyle the picture.
+- Netplay lets you play over the network with someone else.
+- Rewind steps back through gameplay, and run-ahead cuts input and video latency.
+- Machine translation and accessibility features for blind players are built in.
+
+It can also run games from original CDs. Media players and game engines load as cores too, so the frontend covers more than consoles.
+
+The full desktop download is the one with every capability and the built-in updater for cores. RetroArch is also free on the Apple App Store and on Steam. Store versions may lack some capabilities to comply with store rules. On Steam, for instance, cores come from Steam itself and there is no automatic core updater.
+
+RetroArch is open source under the GPL version 3. For Macs, the current stable release, 1.22.2, is a Universal Metal build for Apple silicon and Intel on macOS 10.13 or later. Separate Intel-only builds serve macOS 10.12 and earlier, including a version with Cg shader support, and a PowerPC build is still offered.

-Rilmazafone lets Mac developers lay out a DMG window as it will appear in Finder, with the app icon, extra files, the Applications shortcut and a composed background. Layouts are saved as reusable templates.
+Rilmazafone gives Mac developers a canvas shaped like a Finder window, where you place the app icon, extra files and the Applications shortcut for a DMG installer. Guides snap icons to centers, thirds and neighboring items, and the finished image is built and signed with an identity from your keychain.
-The GitHub edition adds a release pipeline that archives, signs, notarizes, packages and verifies an app, publishes a GitHub release and updates a Homebrew cask, with matching command-line tools. A Mac App Store edition contains only the designer. The project lists macOS 26 or later, with Xcode for the release pipeline.
+- A background can be a picture, a gradient or a flat color, adjusted for color and finished with vignette or bloom effects.
+- Variable blur uses linear or radial masks and updates live on the canvas.
+- Styled text and SF Symbols can be drawn into the background.
+- Frosted panels behind each icon, with shadow, bevel and blend modes, keep labels legible.
+- Output formats are UDZO, UDBZ, LZFSE or LZMA, on HFS+ or APFS.
+
+Designs save as `.dmgtemplate` files, and release settings as `.releaseplan` files. A release plan takes the app from an Xcode archive through signing, notarization, packaging and verification, then publishes a GitHub release and updates a Homebrew cask. The same plan runs from the app or from the command line.
+
+Rilmazafone needs macOS 26 Tahoe, and Xcode for the release pipeline. The GitHub DMG holds an Apple silicon app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. Homebrew users can install it from the developer's own tap.
+
+Two editions come from one codebase. The free GitHub build has the CLI, the release pipeline, Finder thumbnails and a live glass preview built on private macOS APIs. The paid Mac App Store build is sandboxed and holds the designer only, because the sandbox cannot run `xcodebuild`, `codesign` or `notarytool`.

-Rio is a graphical terminal emulator with an emphasis on rendering and customization. It can host the shells and text-based tools used in everyday development.
+Rio is the window your shell runs in: you open it, get a prompt, and run the same command-line tools you use anywhere else. Everything about it is set in `~/.config/rio/config.toml`, from fonts and colors to key bindings.
-The project distributes a macOS disk image. Configuration controls the look and behavior of the terminal workspace.
+- Split panels are on by default, and navigation can use Rio's own tabs, macOS native tabs or no tabs at all.
+- Vi mode, toggled with Option-Shift-Space, selects and copies text from the keyboard.
+- Hints put keyboard shortcuts over URLs, file paths and other patterns on screen.
+- Images display inline through the Sixel, iTerm2 and Kitty graphics protocols, and the Kitty keyboard protocol is supported.
+- An adaptive theme follows the system's light or dark appearance.
+
+Rio is written in Rust. Its renderer, Sugarloaf, uses the native Metal backend in the default macOS build. RetroArch CRT shader filters are listed among the features, but on the Mac they need a build compiled with the wgpu backend.
+
+The release disk image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, with macOS 10.15.7 as the minimum. Canary builds on the same releases page are not notarized, so macOS blocks them until you allow them in Privacy & Security. Rio is also packaged as a Homebrew cask and in MacPorts, and it is MIT-licensed.

-Rocket.Chat Desktop wraps the Rocket.Chat web client in an Electron app, with a sidebar listing the servers you have added so several workspaces sit in one window. You need an account on a Rocket.Chat server, whether self-hosted or provided by the vendor.
+Rocket.Chat Desktop gathers your Rocket.Chat workspaces in one Mac window, with every server you add listed in a sidebar. The app is an Electron shell around Rocket.Chat's web client, so you need an account on a Rocket.Chat server, whether your organisation runs it or the vendor hosts it.
-The desktop app's repository is MIT-licensed; the server is a separate project. The README lists universal macOS builds for macOS 12 or later in DMG, PKG and ZIP form, and the app is also on the Mac App Store and in Homebrew as a cask.
+Much of the README is aimed at administrators who roll the app out to a team:
+
+- A `servers.json` file, bundled with the installer or placed in the user preferences folder, fills in the server list and skips the Connect to server screen.
+- A settings file can block adding servers, so users only see the servers listed in `servers.json`.
+- Other settings turn off update checks, error reporting or the tray icon.
+- Video calls can open in an internal window, and notifications on macOS can carry an inline reply field.
+
+The desktop client's code is MIT-licensed and lives apart from the server. The Mac build is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 12 or later, offered as a DMG, PKG or ZIP and on the Mac App Store.
+
+Slack offers Canvas docs, Lists, Workflow Builder and an AI assistant called Slackbot. Rocket.Chat differs in where the server can live. The vendor offers cloud hosting and also supports on-premises and air-gapped installations, and its server can federate with Matrix and XMPP.

-Rowel keeps passwords, passkeys, payment cards, identity documents, SSH keys and developer secrets in an encrypted vault on your own devices, without an account or subscription. Sync is optional and goes through a cloud storage account you control, which only receives ciphertext.
+Rowel keeps logins, passkeys, cards, identity documents, SSH keys, API keys and whole `.env` files in one encrypted vault on your own disk. You open it with a master password, or with Touch ID once that is set up, and it works offline without an account.
-It runs on macOS, Windows and Linux, with an iOS app in beta and a browser extension. The project was formerly known as Swifty, and the desktop app updates itself from signed releases.
+- Lockboxes split one vault into parts such as Personal and Work. Every lockbox is stored as a separate encrypted file, which may sync to a different Google Drive, Dropbox or iCloud account.
+- Developer secrets have their own item types. SSH keys show a fingerprint, Ed25519 keys can be generated in the app, and API keys carry an environment and scopes.
+- Importers read exports from 1Password, LastPass, Bitwarden, KeePass, Enpass, Chrome and Safari, and report anything they could not bring over.
+- Browser extensions fill passwords and passkeys in Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Firefox and Safari.
+
+Coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex can use stored logins and keys through grants you approve, recorded in an audit log. The agent never sees the value, but any command you approve to run with that key does.
+
+1Password also keeps your passwords on all your devices, inside a 1Password account protected by an account password and a Secret Key. Rowel has no account and no server of its own; the developer says the cloud you connect only ever holds ciphertext.
+
+The 1.1.1 disk image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. It updates itself and installs only updates with a valid signature. An iOS version is in TestFlight beta.

-RPCS3 provides PlayStation 3 emulation and debugging through a desktop interface. Its project tracks compatibility and documents hardware requirements for different platforms.
+RPCS3 runs PlayStation 3 games on a computer and doubles as a debugger for PS3 software. Written in C++, it has builds for Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and macOS.
-Games and required firmware are supplied separately. Performance and compatibility depend heavily on the title and computer.
+The emulator ships without the PS3 system software or any games. You install the firmware from a `PS3UPDAT.PUP` file with the Install Firmware command, then add your own games. From there the main window works like a library:
+
+- Games are added from folders or ISO images, and the game list can switch to a grid of icons.
+- Package files (`.pkg`), along with RAP and EDAT files, install from the same window.
+- Savestates can be booted directly, as can recently played games.
+- A patch manager and a patch creator handle per-game patches.
+- Gamepads and RPCN each have their own configuration dialog.
+
+Mac builds are published for Apple silicon and Intel as separate 7z archives. The current Apple silicon app requires macOS 15 or later. It carries only an ad-hoc signature, which Gatekeeper rejects. Most of the code is under GPL-2.0-only, and some files carry other licenses.
+
+The project collects per-game compatibility information on its wiki and forums, and lists minimum system requirements in its quickstart guide.

-RSS Guard gathers articles from feeds into a dedicated reading application. Group subscriptions into folders, track unread items, and apply filters to manage a busy reading list.
+RSS Guard pulls articles from RSS, Atom, JSON, iCalendar and Sitemap feeds into one reader. You can keep plain feeds in local folders, or add an online account and let RSS Guard sync with it.
-The project offers fuller web-rendering builds and smaller text-oriented builds. Choose the macOS package that fits how you prefer to read.
+- Supported services include Feedly, Nextcloud News, Tiny Tiny RSS, Gmail and services built on the Google Reader API, such as FreshRSS, Inoreader and Miniflux.
+- Any number of labels can go on an article, and some services sync them.
+- Article filters are scripts that run on incoming articles to mark them important, strip ads or reject them. A visual generator builds simple ones.
+- A built-in player based on mpv or ffmpeg plays podcast audio and video.
+- Feeds can also arrive over the Gemini protocol, and real-time Atom entries over XMPP.
+
+Filters are aimed at advanced users, since a script can slow down feed updates and download more data.
+
+Every release comes in two variants. The web build renders pages with Qt WebEngine, loads images normally and can print to PDF, at the cost of a larger download. The text build uses the simpler QTextBrowser and avoids the graphics-driver crashes WebEngine causes on some systems. For version 5.2.5 the text DMG holds an Apple silicon app built for macOS 15 or later. It carries no Developer ID signature, so Gatekeeper rejects it. Get it from the GitHub releases page; rssguard.com is an unrelated site.
+
+Reeder runs on iOS and macOS and syncs your place in the timeline between devices. RSS Guard covers Windows, Linux, BSD, OS/2 and macOS instead, and leaves syncing to the service you connect.

-RsyncUI turns rsync configuration into reusable tasks with a graphical interface. It helps manage parameters, estimate transfers, and inspect results without assembling every command manually.
+RsyncUI saves each rsync job as a task with its source, destination and parameters, then runs it from a list when you need it. You choose options in the app and it builds the rsync and SSH arguments, so a repeat sync takes a click.
-The transfer behavior still depends on the selected rsync options and destinations. Review estimates and deletion settings before running a synchronization task.
+- A dry run estimates each task first and reports how many files would be copied, created or deleted, and how much data would move.
+- Snapshot tasks use rsync's `--link-dest`, so each run stores only changed and deleted files and hard-links the rest. They need rsync 3.x.
+- Profiles keep separate sets of tasks, and tasks not run within a set number of days turn red.
+- The SSH settings create keys for passwordless login to remote servers.
+- Restore pulls files back from a remote server, with a dry-run preview first. Local disks are left to Finder.
+
+Rsync does the actual copying, and RsyncUI will not stop a bad parameter. New tasks leave `--delete` off, so the destination keeps files you removed from the source until you turn it on. With `--delete` on and an empty source, rsync deletes everything at the destination, which is why the documentation asks for a dry run of every new task. Progress updates misbehave with the openrsync that ships in `/usr/bin`, and the project suggests installing a current rsync.
+
+Schedules run only while RsyncUI is open. Tasks missed while the Mac sleeps appear in the Schedule view and do not run on their own, and the app makes no disk images.
+
+RsyncUI needs macOS 14 Sonoma or later. Releases come as a Universal DMG and an Apple silicon DMG, and the app inside is signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-RunCat Neo puts an animated runner in the menu bar: a cat by default, with other built-in runners such as a dog, a coffee cup and a water drop, and community-made runners shared through the project's Runner Gallery.
+RunCat Neo shows your Mac's CPU load as a cat running in the menu bar. The busier the processor, the faster the cat runs, and it slows to a stroll when the Mac is idle.
-Its dashboard shows system readings and can render extra cards from any local JSON file in a documented format, with samples for Claude Code and Codex usage. The app is distributed through the Mac App Store and requires macOS 26 or later.
+RunCat Neo is a new app for current macOS, not an update of the original RunCat. It needs macOS 26 or later, comes from the Mac App Store, where the listing includes in-app purchases, and is translated into ten languages.
+
+Click the menu bar item to open a dashboard with CPU, memory, storage, battery and network readings. You can add your own cards to it. Point RunCat Neo at a local JSON file in the documented format, under Metrics and then Custom Metrics in settings, and a card redraws each time the file changes. Each row shows your text as written, with an optional progress bar for a value between 0 and 1. A separate Metrics Bar item can show a short value from each source.
+
+Whatever writes the file supplies the data, so a small script can track GPU temperature, a Bitcoin price or Claude Code usage. The project ships samples for Claude Code's status line, a Codex hook and Bitcoin. The developer says the app reacts to file-system events, never polls the file and makes no network calls of its own.
+
+The cat can be swapped for other runners, including ones you build from your own keyframe animation. Community runners are shared through the separate Runner Gallery site.

-RustDesk lets users view and control another computer through a desktop interface. It can be used with the project's infrastructure or a separately configured self-hosted setup.
+RustDesk shows another computer's screen and passes your keyboard and mouse to it, so you can work on a machine in another room or help someone on theirs. Each running copy registers with an ID server. When you connect to another machine's ID, that server tries to link the two computers directly, and a relay server carries the session only when the direct link fails.
-This record covers the open-source client. Some server products and commercial features are offered under separate terms.
+The client works with the project's public ID and relay servers without any setup. You can also run those two servers yourself and point the client at them, which keeps deployment data on machines you manage. The self-hosted server comes in a free open-source edition and a paid Server Pro edition. Pro adds a web console, OIDC and LDAP sign-in, two-factor authentication, access control and management of several relays.
+
+Clients exist for Windows, macOS, Linux and Android, so a Mac can control a PC and the other way round. The developers say that RustDesk.com is their only official domain and ask you not to download the app from anywhere else. Version 1.5.1 comes as separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, both signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The Apple silicon build requires macOS 12.3 or later, and the Intel build macOS 10.14.
+
+To be controlled, a Mac needs RustDesk in the Applications folder with the Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions. Accessibility covers mouse and keyboard input, and Screen Recording covers capture of the display. On newer macOS versions the controlling Mac can also need Input Monitoring before local keystrokes reach the remote machine.

-SaneBar keeps the menu bar tidy by moving items into hidden sections. Hidden apps can be reached from an icon panel or a second menu bar, with search, profiles, styling options, triggers that reveal items automatically, and an optional Touch ID lock.
+SaneBar moves menu bar icons you rarely use into a hidden section and keeps the ones you need in view. Command-drag icons to sort them, then click the SaneBar icon or press Command-Backslash to show or hide the rest. Hidden icons go away again after a delay.
-Once a paid app, it was released for free under the MIT license when its developer stepped back, citing macOS 27 menu bar changes that break menu bar managers. It is now community-maintained; expect problems on macOS 27. The README lists macOS 14 or later and Apple silicon only.
+Hidden apps can also be browsed in a floating Icon Panel or a full-width second bar under the real menu bar, and you can double-click one to open it. Find Icon searches every menu bar item by name and clicks it for you, even one hidden behind the notch.
+
+- An Always Hidden section holds icons that never appear on their own.
+- Triggers show icons on low battery, a Wi-Fi network, a Focus change, an app launch or an external display.
+- Profiles save separate layouts, and hidden icons can be locked behind Touch ID or a password.
+- Per-icon hotkeys open a single app's menu, and AppleScript commands cover automation.
+
+Managing the menu bar needs the Accessibility permission. SaneBar runs on macOS 14 through 26 on Apple silicon only. On macOS 27 it can't hide icons and shows a notice pointing to the system's own Menu Bar settings. The developer made it free under the MIT license after Apple's menu bar changes in macOS 27, and the community now maintains it through pull requests. The downloaded build is notarized and updates itself through Sparkle.
+
+Bartender covers the same ground with search, hotkeys and triggers, and its version 7 is built for macOS 27. SaneBar's first-run setup can import a Bartender layout.

-SaneClick adds a library of Finder context-menu actions for converting and resizing images, handling PDFs, copying paths, hashing files and similar chores, shown only for matching file types. Power users can add their own Bash, AppleScript or Automator actions.
+SaneClick puts extra commands in the Finder right-click menu, so you can convert a HEIC image, merge PDFs or copy a file's path without opening another app. It ships with 62 ready-made actions in five categories, and you switch on the ones you want from its library.
-The source is published under PolyForm Shield 1.0.0, so this entry is classified as source available. The official download is a paid app with a free trial and requires macOS 14 on Apple silicon.
+- Actions appear only for matching file types, and can be limited to a single file or to a range of selected items.
+- Image tools convert, resize, strip metadata and pull text out of pictures with OCR.
+- File actions hash files, create archives, clean up names and open the selection in Terminal.
+- Custom actions run your own Bash script, AppleScript or Automator workflow, and a Test button previews the output on real files before you save.
+- Custom scripts can be exported and imported as JSON.
+
+SaneClick needs macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon. The download from GitHub or saneclick.com is notarized and runs as a 14-day trial, after which the app must be bought. A separate edition in the Mac App Store costs nothing and carries 13 actions, with 24 more behind an in-app purchase. Its source is published under PolyForm Shield 1.0.0, which bars using it to build a competing product.
+
+The menu items come from a Finder extension that you enable in System Settings under Privacy & Security, Extensions. A status badge turns green when it is active and orange when Finder needs a restart, which the app can do for you. You also choose which folders SaneClick watches. The developer says file contents are never uploaded.

+- Snippets fill in placeholders for the date, the time or a value you type when pasting.
+- Paste As converts text to upper or lower case, pretty-prints JSON or strips HTML.
+- Clipboard rules remove tracking parameters from URLs and trim whitespace on every copy.
+- A saneclip:// URL scheme and Shortcuts actions handle automation.
+
+SaneClip requires macOS 14 or later and Apple silicon.

Its source is published under PolyForm Shield 1.0.0, which forbids using it for a competing product.
+
+Paste also keeps a clipboard history that stays in sync across Mac, iPhone and iPad. SaneClip keeps its history on the Mac by default, and syncing to its free iPhone and iPad companion is optional and runs through your own iCloud account.

-SaneHosts builds /etc/hosts entries from profiles, offering preset protection levels and a library of community blocklists that can be merged and deduplicated. Activating a profile goes through the macOS authorization prompt and flushes the DNS cache; earlier versions of each profile are kept as backups.
+SaneHosts edits the Mac's /etc/hosts file for you, so ad, tracker and distraction domains stop resolving in every app. You pick a protection level or build a profile from blocklists, activate it, and approve the change with Touch ID or your password.
-The direct download starts a 14-day trial and continues with a one-time purchase. The project describes limited anonymous product events alongside optional network features. Its source is published under PolyForm Shield, so this entry is classified as source available.
+There are five preset levels, and the first four build on each other. Essentials covers ads, trackers and malware. Family Safe adds adult and gambling sites, Focus Mode adds social media, and Privacy Shield adds telemetry and advanced trackers. Kitchen Sink is the largest set. The site puts them at roughly 170,000 to 700,000 entries.
+
+- More than 200 blocklists, among them Steven Black, Hagezi, AdGuard and OISD, can be imported, along with any list at an HTTPS address.
+- Profiles can be merged with duplicates removed, exported as standard .hosts files and switched from the menu bar.
+- Each activation flushes the DNS cache, and the app keeps three backups per profile.
+- Search copes with profiles of over 100,000 entries, and a health indicator shows whether each blocklist source is reachable.
+
+Hosts data lives in ~/Library/Application Support/SaneHosts. According to the developer, a small number of anonymous product events, such as launch, version and license status, may be sent.
+
+SaneHosts needs macOS 14 or later. The version 1.1.26 ZIP on GitHub holds a notarized Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. Every feature works for 14 days, then protection turns off until you buy the app once. The source is published under PolyForm Shield 1.0.0, which bars using it to build a competing product.
+
+Blocking works by domain, so an ad hosted on the page's own domain still loads, and empty ad boxes stay on the page; a browser extension can deal with those. The Turn Off Protection command stops blocking.

-SaneSales is aimed at independent sellers who use more than one storefront. It connects to Lemon Squeezy, Gumroad and Stripe with your own API keys and combines their revenue, orders, products and refunds into one dashboard, with charts, search, CSV export and today's total in the menu bar.
+SaneSales pulls your sales from Lemon Squeezy, Gumroad and Stripe into a single dashboard. You paste an API key for each storefront, and the app fetches orders, products, revenue and refunds straight from the provider APIs.
-Data is fetched directly from those providers and kept on your devices; keys can sync through iCloud Keychain. The Mac app is a free download from the official website and GitHub releases, and the same developer also offers iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch versions.
+- Revenue shows for today, the last 7 or 30 days, a custom range or all time, as net totals after refunds.
+- Daily revenue charts track momentum, and a donut chart splits earnings by product.
+- Orders can be searched by customer, product or amount and filtered by provider, status or date.
+- The full order history exports to CSV.
+- Today's revenue sits in the menu bar, and right-clicking it gives quick actions.
+
+There is no SaneApps account or sign-up. API keys go into iCloud Keychain, so your other Apple devices reconnect on their own, and sales data is cached on the device for offline viewing. The developer says sales data, orders and API keys never reach SaneApps servers, though a few anonymous app counts may be sent.
+
+SaneSales needs macOS 14 or later on an Apple silicon Mac; there is no Intel build. The version 1.3.12 ZIP on GitHub holds a notarized app. That release removed the earlier purchase, so the app is now free under the MIT license with every feature unlocked, and donations are optional.
+
+The same app runs on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, with Home Screen, Lock Screen and Smart Stack widgets, and it is also on the iOS and Mac App Store.

-Santa uses a system extension to log program launches and decide whether they may run. In monitor mode everything not explicitly blocked runs and is recorded; in lockdown mode only allowed binaries run. Rules can target code signatures (team, signing ID, certificate or CDHash) or paths, and a GUI agent tells users when something is blocked.
+Santa decides which programs may run on a Mac and records every launch. An administrator sets rules and Santa enforces them through a system extension, so you can allow or block software across a whole fleet or simply see what runs on one machine.
-It is aimed mainly at managed fleets, with configuration that can sync from a server. Google archived its original repository in 2025 and pointed users to this actively maintained North Pole Security fork.
+Santa has two main modes. In monitor mode, the default, everything runs except binaries marked as blocked, and each launch is logged. In lockdown mode only binaries on the allow list run. Unknown and denied binaries are stored in a local events database for later review.
+
+- Rules can match a code signature by CDHash, certificate, Team ID or signing ID, so one rule can cover a whole publisher or every version of a signed binary.
+- The most specific rule wins, which lets you allow a publisher but block one of its binaries.
+- Path rules use regular expressions and have the lowest precedence.
+- Santa refuses rules that would block the certificate behind launchd, or block Santa itself.
+
+A GUI agent tells the user when something is blocked, and `santactl` manages the system from the command line. Rules can be set locally or synced from a server such as North Pole Security's Workshop, Moroz, Rudolph or Zentral. The project is open about the limits: Santa only stops executables, not scripts, and does not cover libraries loaded with `dlopen` or `DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES`.
+
+Google stopped maintaining its original repository in 2025 and names this North Pole Security fork as one to move to. In release 2026.9, the installer package inside the DMG is Developer ID-signed and notarized, and installs a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel Macs on macOS 14 or later.

-Icons, from SAP, produces a matching set of PNG icons from a single dropped image: a regular app icon, an installer icon and an uninstaller icon with a delete badge and an animated variant. Optional banners mark builds such as test or production versions.
+Icons turns one image into the icon set Mac admins use for apps in management tools such as Jamf Pro or Munki. You drag an image or an application onto its window, adjust the result, and save an install icon, an uninstall icon with a delete badge, and an animated version of that uninstall icon.
-It is aimed at Mac administrators who publish apps through tools such as Jamf Pro or Munki. A Finder extension and a command-line mode support automation. It requires macOS 13 or later and is distributed as an installer package on GitHub releases.
+Banners are the main customization. You type a label such as Test or Production, choose the banner and text colours and the side it sits on, and save it for reuse. Versions of an app for development, test and production environments are then easy to tell apart.
+
+- An overlay image can be placed and resized on top of the icon.
+- The uninstall animation's duration and image size are adjustable, and the delete badge can be any image or an SF Symbol pasted as SVG.
+- Output sizes run from 64 by 64 to 1024 by 1024 pixels, and an icon can go to the clipboard without being saved.
+- On macOS 15.1 or later, Image Playground can generate a starting image from scratch.
+
+Without opening the app, a Finder Quick Action called Make Icon Set builds the three default files from the selected item. It needs write access to the folder that item is in. The icons_cli command-line tool produces the same files in scripts, given an input and an output path.

-
- When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not

- Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights

-
- A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
-improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they

-incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and
-encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of
-software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
-The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
-letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
-source code to the public.
-
- The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
-ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
-to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
-provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
-users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
-a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
-code of the modified version.
-
- An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
-published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is
-a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
-released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
-this license.
-
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
-modification follow.
-
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
- 0. Definitions.
-
- "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
-
- "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
-works, such as semiconductor masks.
-
- "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
-License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
-"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
-
- To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
-in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
-exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
-earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
-
- A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
-on the Program.
-
- To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
-permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
-infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
-computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
-distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
-public, and in some countries other activities as well.
-
- To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
-parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
-a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
-
- An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
-to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
-feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
-tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
-extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
-work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
-the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
-menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
-
- 1. Source Code.
-
- The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
-for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
-form of a work.
-
- A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
-standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
-interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
-is widely used among developers working in that language.
-
- The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
-than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
-packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
-Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
-Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
-implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
-"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
-(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
-(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
-produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
-
- The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
-the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
-work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
-control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
-System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
-programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
-which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
-includes interface definition files associated with source files for
-the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
-linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
-such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
-subprograms and other parts of the work.
-
- The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
-can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
-Source.
-
- The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
-same work.
-
- 2. Basic Permissions.
-
- All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
-copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
-conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
-permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
-covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
-content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
-rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
-
- You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
-convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
-in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
-of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
-with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
-the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
-not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
-for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
-and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
-your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
-
- Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
-the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
-makes it unnecessary.
-
- 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
-
- No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
-measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
-11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
-similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
-measures.
-
- When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
-circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
-is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
-the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
-modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
-users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
-technological measures.
-
- 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
-
- You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
-receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
-appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
-keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
-non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
-keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
-recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
-
- You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
-and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
-
- 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
-
- You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
-produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
-terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
-
- a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
- it, and giving a relevant date.
-
- b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
- released under this License and any conditions added under section
- 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
- "keep intact all notices".
-
- c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
- License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
- License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
- additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
- regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
- permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
- invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
-
- d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
- Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
- interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
- work need not make them do so.
-
- A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
-works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
-and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
-in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
-"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
-used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
-beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
-in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
-parts of the aggregate.
-
- 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
-
- You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
-of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
-machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
-in one of these ways:
-
- a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
- (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
- Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
- customarily used for software interchange.
-
- b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
- (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
- written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
- long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
- model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
- copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
- product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
- medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
- more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
- conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
- Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
-
- c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
- written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
- alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
- only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
- with subsection 6b.
-
- d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
- place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
- Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
- further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
- Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
- copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
- may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
- that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
- clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
- Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
- Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
- available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
-
- e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
- you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
- Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
- charge under subsection 6d.
-
- A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
-from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
-included in conveying the object code work.
-
- A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
-tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
-or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
-into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
-doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
-product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
-typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
-of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
-actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
-is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
-commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
-the only significant mode of use of the product.
-
- "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
-procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
-and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
-a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
-suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
-code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
-modification has been made.
-
- If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
-specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
-part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
-User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
-fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
-Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
-by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
-if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
-modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
-been installed in ROM).
-
- The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
-requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
-for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
-the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
-network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
-adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
-protocols for communication across the network.
-
- Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
-in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
-documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
-source code form), and must require no special password or key for
-unpacking, reading or copying.
-
- 7. Additional Terms.
-
- "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
-License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
-Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
-be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
-that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
-apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
-under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
-this License without regard to the additional permissions.
-
- When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
-remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
-it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
-removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
-additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
-for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
-add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
-that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
-
- a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
- terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
-
- b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
- author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
- Notices displayed by works containing it; or
-
- c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
- requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
- reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
-
- d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
- authors of the material; or
-
- e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
- trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
-
- f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
- material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
- it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
- any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
- those licensors and authors.
-
- All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
-restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
-received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
-governed by this License along with a term that is a further
-restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
-a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
-License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
-of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
-not survive such relicensing or conveying.
-
- If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
-must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
-additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
-where to find the applicable terms.
-
- Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
-form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
-the above requirements apply either way.
-
- 8. Termination.
-
- You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
-provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
-modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
-this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
-paragraph of section 11).
-
- However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
-license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
-provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
-finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
-holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
-prior to 60 days after the cessation.
-
- Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
-reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
-violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
-received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
-copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
-your receipt of the notice.
-
- Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
-licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
-this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
-reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
-material under section 10.
-
- 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
-
- You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
-run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
-occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
-to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
-nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
-modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
-not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
-covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
-
- 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
-
- Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
-receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
-propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
-for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
-
- An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
-organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
-organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
-work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
-transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
-licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
-give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
-Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
-the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
-
- You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
-rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
-not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
-rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
-(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
-any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
-sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
-
- 11. Patents.
-
- A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
-License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
-work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
-
- A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
-owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
-hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
-by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
-but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
-consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
-purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
-patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
-this License.
-
- Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
-patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
-make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
-propagate the contents of its contributor version.
-
- In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
-agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
-(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
-sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
-party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
-patent against the party.
-
- If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
-and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
-to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
-publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
-then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
-available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
-patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
-consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
-license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
-actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
-covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
-in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
-country that you have reason to believe are valid.
-
- If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
-arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
-covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
-receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
-or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
-you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
-work and works based on it.
-
- A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
-the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
-conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
-specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
-work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
-in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
-to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
-the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
-parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
-patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
-conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
-for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
-contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
-or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
-
- Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
-any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
-otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
-
- 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
-
- If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
-excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
-covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
-not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
-to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
-the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
-License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
-
- 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
-Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
-interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
-supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
-Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
-from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
-means of facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source
-shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
-of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
-following paragraph.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
-permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
-under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
-combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
-License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
-but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
-3 of the GNU General Public License.
-
- 14. Revised Versions of this License.
-
- The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
-the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
-will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
-address new problems or concerns.
-
- Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
-Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
-Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
-option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
-version or of any later version published by the Free Software
-Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
-GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
-by the Free Software Foundation.
-
- If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
-versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
-public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
-to choose that version for the Program.
-
- Later license versions may give you additional or different
-permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
-author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
-later version.
-
- 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
-
- THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
-APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
-HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
-OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
-THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
-PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
-IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
-ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
- 16. Limitation of Liability.
-
- IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
-WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
-THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
-GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
-USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
-DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
-PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
-EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
-SUCH DAMAGES.
-
- 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
-
- If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
-above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
-reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
-an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
-Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
-copy of the Program in return for a fee.
-
- END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
- How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
-
- If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
-possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
-free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
-
- To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
-to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
-state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
-the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
-
-
- Copyright (C)
-
- This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
- it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published
- by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
- (at your option) any later version.
-
- This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
- but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
- GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
-
- You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
- along with this program. If not, see .
-
-Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
-
- If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
-network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
-get its source. For example, if your program is a web application, its
-interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
-of the code. There are many ways you could offer source, and different
-solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
-specific requirements.
-
- You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
-if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
-For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see

-Sapphire turns the area around the notch on recent MacBooks into a live panel. It shows the currently playing media from any source and the local weather, and can pop up a 20-20-20 eye-break reminder; a beta mixer adjusts per-app and per-device volume and EQ from the same place.
-
-Beyond the notch it bundles a few extra tools: receiving files, photos and links from Android phones through Nearby Share, and a window-snapping system. It is installed from a package on GitHub releases and needs Accessibility and related permissions for its full feature set.

-scrcpy mirrors and controls an Android phone from a computer, but its many options live behind command-line flags. Scrcpy GUI, an unofficial companion project, lays those options out in panels for video, audio, recording and window behaviour, shows the resulting command as you change settings, and keeps favourite configurations for reuse.
+Scrcpy GUI puts the command-line options of scrcpy, the Android mirroring tool, into a window of switches and fields. You pick settings, watch the matching scrcpy command build as you go, and press Run to mirror and control the phone.
-It also lists connected devices, helps switch a device to wireless debugging, and tracks the scrcpy sessions it has started. scrcpy and adb must be installed separately, for example with Homebrew; the Flutter app itself is published for macOS, Windows and Linux on GitHub.
+The options are grouped into panels:
+
+- Common settings such as bitrate, resolution, frame rate and orientation
+- Audio source, codec and quality, plus screen recording with format controls
+- Camera mirroring, virtual displays and keyboard and mouse input
+- Network options for wireless connections and SSH tunnels
+
+scrcpy itself must be installed first, for example with Homebrew, and adb usually comes with it. The phone needs USB debugging turned on.
+
+The macOS download for version 1.7.5 is a ZIP holding a DMG and an install script. Inside is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that requires macOS 12 or later. It has no Developer ID signature, so the script clears the quarantine flag before copying the app to Applications. That release was tested on Linux and Windows, and the developer has no Mac to test on. Scrcpy GUI is built with Flutter and also ships for Windows and Linux.
+
+The device list refreshes every two seconds. For wireless use, you connect by cable once, press Connect Wirelessly and unplug, without typing adb commands. Several devices can run at once, and the app tracks all running scrcpy instances. Favourites keep configurations for reuse, with a Most Used list, and can be exported as executable scripts.

-ScreenHint turns a portion of your screen into a small reference window. It helps keep information in view while you work in another application or compare material across windows.
+ScreenHint turns part of your screen into a floating picture that stays above other windows. Press your shortcut, select a region, and the capture becomes a hint you can keep next to your work: notes you refer to, two versions of your work to compare, or a reminder you want in sight.
-The upstream project publishes a Mac application and its source code. Its floating hints are intended for quick visual reference rather than a full image-editing workflow.
+- Hints can be resized, thrown around the desktop and pinned to desktops.
+- Copying a hint puts the image on the clipboard, so it pastes anywhere images go.
+- Copy Text runs text recognition on the hint. If the first pass finds nothing, it tries again and tells you when there is no text.
+- The shortcuts listed in a hint's menu, such as Command-C, work from the keyboard.
+
+The first-run tour shows a demo video, asks for the two permissions the app needs and lets you set the shortcut. Those permissions are Screen Recording and Accessibility, and a Permissions window shows whether each one is granted and opens the right pane of System Settings.
+
+ScreenHint needs macOS 14 or later. The 1.6.0 release on GitHub is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The developer also publishes it on the Mac App Store and runs a beta program on TestFlight. The code is GPL-3.0.
+
+The developer says the screenshot behind a hint is used only to display it and is never stored or sent anywhere.

-Screenize is a screen recorder for product demos and tutorials in the style of Screen Studio. It tracks your pointer and clicks while recording, then generates zooms and pans automatically; every generated keyframe sits on a multi-track timeline where it can be adjusted, alongside click ripples and keystroke overlays.
+Screenize records a screen or a single window and then edits the recording for you. While you walk through a demo or tutorial, it logs the pointer, clicks and keystrokes. When you open the editor, zooms and pans that follow that activity are already on a multi-track timeline, and you can change any keyframe.
-The author paused development in May 2026, noting that newer open-source alternatives have appeared, and the most recent release is v0.4.3 from March 2026. The code remains open and disk images are still available on GitHub releases.
+- Two camera modes: one follows the cursor live, the other plans zoom levels for typing, clicking, scrolling and dragging.
+- Click ripples and on-screen badges for keyboard shortcuts.
+- Gradient backgrounds, rounded corners, shadows, custom cursors and motion blur.
+- Export to MP4, ProRes MOV or GIF at up to 4K and 240 fps, in sRGB, Display P3, BT.709 or BT.2020.
+
+It captures system audio and the microphone and asks for four permissions: Screen Recording, Microphone, Input Monitoring and Accessibility. The interface comes in six languages, among them Korean, Japanese and German.
+
+The author paused development in May 2026, writing that newer open-source recorders had raised the bar, and may return if those turn commercial-only. The 0.4.3 DMG on GitHub holds a Universal app for macOS 13 or later. It is not notarized, so the first launch needs a right-click and Open.
+
+Screen Studio also zooms in on where you clicked. It adds camera layouts such as split screen and a camera overlay, and it is a paid app with license keys and subscriptions. Screenize is free under Apache 2.0.

+ScreenTranslate translates text on your screen, including text you cannot select. Press Command-E, drag a rectangle around it, and the translation appears in a popup next to the selection. Apple's Vision framework reads the text and Apple Translation translates it on the Mac.
-Recognition and translation use Apple's on-device frameworks unless you opt into a cloud engine. The project's privacy policy notes that it collects anonymous usage statistics.
+- Select text in any app and press Command-Option-Z to translate it without OCR.
+- Command-Shift-E opens a small panel where you type or paste text.
+- Live Translate, a beta, keeps translating an area you pick, such as subtitles burned into a video or game. It uses only Apple Translation, cannot capture protected video such as Netflix and drains more battery while it runs.
+- Results go to the clipboard by default, and a searchable history keeps every translation.
+
+Capturing needs the Screen Recording permission, and translating selected text needs Accessibility. The developer says the app collects only anonymous usage statistics and no personal data.
+
+ScreenTranslate needs macOS 15 or later and no account. The 1.6.0 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it updates itself through Sparkle. You can hide the menu bar icon; opening the app again brings up Settings.
+
+Every shortcut can be changed. Apple Translation covers 20 languages and detects the source language. Once you download the language packs, it works offline. API keys for DeepL, Google Cloud or Azure, which you supply yourself, add more languages.

-Scribus is a desktop publishing application for arranging text and images on pages. Its layout tools support publications where typography, spacing, and print output need close attention.
+Scribus places text frames and images on pages for brochures, newsletters, magazines and other print work, then exports a PDF a print shop can take. You draw frames, link them so text runs from one to the next, and control color and type yourself.
-Use it for newsletters, brochures, or multi-page designs. The project's release archive provides macOS installers alongside source packages.
+Scribus was the first desktop publishing program to support PDF/X-3. It also exports PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-4, and it can also make PDF forms and presentations. Colors can be RGB, CMYK, LAB, spectral or spot, with color management throughout. Nearly 200 palettes ship with the app, and you can preview pages as people with color blindness would see them.
+
+Text supports right-to-left scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew, mixed-direction lines, Indic scripts and OpenType features. Documents are stored as XML. If a file gets damaged, you can open it in a text editor and repair it.
+
+The stable release is 1.6.7. Its Intel disk image needs macOS 12, and the Apple silicon one needs macOS 13. Development builds of 1.7 are offered separately, and downloads are hosted on SourceForge. The official source sits in the project's Subversion repository, which GitHub mirrors.
+
+Affinity, from Canva, puts page layout in one app with photo editing and graphic design. Scribus handles layout alone, under the GPL, and its files stay readable.

-Scroll Reverser lets you keep the scrolling direction that feels right for each mouse or trackpad. Its settings distinguish scrolling sources rather than forcing a single preference across the whole Mac.
+Scroll Reverser sets the scrolling direction per source: every trackpad and mouse, devices joined through Universal Control, and apps that send scroll events. Plug in a mouse and it gets its own row in Settings, where you choose Natural, Classic or Unchanged.
-It runs through macOS event handling and requires Accessibility permission. The official website provides downloads and configuration guidance.
+New devices start with these defaults: trackpads scroll Natural and wheel mice scroll Classic. Horizontal scrolling follows the vertical choice unless you override it under the gear button. For a wheel mouse, a step size control scrolls a fixed number of lines per click, three by default, in place of macOS scroll acceleration.
+
+Scroll events from other software, such as remote access tools or mouse utilities, cannot reveal their underlying direction. For those, and for an unidentified source like an iPad in Sidecar, the choices are Reversed or Unchanged. iPhone Mirroring and Calendar scroll through gestures rather than scroll events, so Scroll Reverser has no effect there. An AppleScript `enabled` property turns the app on and off.
+
+It works through an event tap, which needs the Accessibility permission. Version 2.1.1 requires macOS 13.5 or later, and the ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Older versions, going back to one for Mac OS X 10.7, remain on the website. The app installs nothing deeper in the system, so quitting it and dragging it to the Trash removes it.

+ScummVM plays classic point-and-click adventures, text adventures and RPGs on a Mac by replacing the games' original executables with its own engines. You supply the data files from your copy of the game.
-Most titles still require their original game data. The project also lists freely distributable games and provides official macOS downloads.
+To add one, copy the game's files into a folder, choose Add Game and pick that folder, not the files inside it. Mass Add searches a folder and its subfolders for every supported game at once. A Game Options dialog then holds that game's settings, and you start it from the list.

+The name comes from SCUMM, the scripting system LucasArts used for Maniac Mansion and the Monkey Island games, and ScummVM was first built to run those SCUMM games. Engines for many other games followed, including Broken Sword, Myst and Blade Runner. The project's wiki lists every supported title, and a compatibility list marks which games can be played to the end.
+
+The current download is a disk image for macOS 10.13 or later on Intel and Apple silicon and includes the Sparkle updater. The same release also comes in separate images without Sparkle for Mac OS X 10.9 on Intel, 32-bit Intel on 10.6 and PowerPC on 10.4.
+
+Bug reports go to the project's own tracker, and the team asks you to test the latest daily build first. ScummVM is released under GPL-3.0 or later.

-Seashore is a raster image editor built around layers, aimed at simple everyday image work rather than professional retouching. It began as Mark Pazolli's SourceForge project, and this repository is the version Robert Engels has modernised and publishes for free on the Mac App Store.
+Seashore edits raster images in layers. Open a photo or start a blank canvas, which can have a transparent background, and paint, select and retouch on separate layers before merging them.
-Its author has since shifted active development to Seahorse, a separate paid app, but says Seashore stays free on the App Store and will be kept running on newer macOS versions with critical fixes. The last tagged source release on GitHub is 3.36 from 2024; the App Store build was updated in 2026.
+- Selection tools cover rectangles, ellipses, the lasso and the polygon lasso, with an aspect ratio setting.
+- A clone tool and an effects tool sit next to the painting tools.
+- Text layers take several lines and can have an outline.
+- Filter plug-ins include hue and saturation, sharpening, posterize and CMYK, and many more come from Core Image.
+
+It opens PNG, JPEG, JPEG 2000, HEIC, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP, SVG and PDF files, and it edits GIMP's XCF format.
+
+Mark Pazolli started Seashore on SourceForge, and Robert Engels maintains this version. It is free on the Mac App Store, with an optional in-app purchase to support the project, and needs macOS 10.9 or later. The developer says it collects no personal information.
+
+Engels has moved his main work to Seahorse, a new commercial editor written in Swift for macOS 13 and later, with a separate iPad version. He says Seashore stays free on the App Store and that he will try to keep it running on newer macOS versions and fix critical bugs people report. The last tagged source release on GitHub is 3.36 from June 2024.
+
+Apple's Pixelmator Pro edits images on Mac and iPad, adds AI features built on Apple Intelligence and comes as part of the Apple Creator Studio collection. Seashore has none of that tie-in: it is free, and its source code is public under GPL-2.0.

-SelfControl lets you define a blocklist and a duration for focused work. During that period, access to the selected network destinations remains blocked.
+SelfControl blocks your own access to websites, mail servers or other internet hosts for a set time. You add domain names to a blocklist, set the duration, and press Start. Until the timer runs out, those hosts stay unreachable, even if you restart the Mac or delete the app.
-Its deliberate constraint is that restarting the computer or deleting the app does not end an active block. Choose the duration and destinations carefully before starting.
+There is no way to end a block early. Deleting the app does not lift it and can stop the block from ending at the right time, so the FAQ suggests testing a short block before a long one. Blocking a domain also blocks other sites served from the same servers or domain, and `google.com`, for example, covers many Google services. Gmail needs `mail.google.com` on the list.
+
+A few setups make blocks unreliable. A VPN keeps SelfControl from blocking properly, and partial VPN clients for corporate or university networks can bring an old block back when they disconnect. In Firefox, DNS over HTTPS can make a block fail unless you restart the browser after each start. Blocks longer than 24 hours are possible, but the app hides that option and the FAQ explains how to set one up.
+
+SelfControl 4.0.2 runs on Mac OS X 10.10 or later, and 3.0.3 remains on the site for 10.8 and 10.9. The 4.0.2 ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The app comes in 12 languages.

-SensibleSideButtons turns the side buttons on a compatible mouse into navigation gestures. It targets apps where a simple keyboard-shortcut mapping does not behave like the system's back and forward gesture.
+SensibleSideButtons makes the two side buttons on a third-party mouse go back and forward in macOS. Click the rear button over an Xcode editor or a documentation viewer, and that view steps back through its history.
-The app runs in the menu bar. The upstream README explains how to add it to login items if you want the behavior available after restarting.
+By default macOS gives these buttons, known as M4 and M5, almost nothing to do. The usual fix binds them to Command-[ and Command-], which goes to the whole frontmost app, can blink the menu bar or beep, and can trigger the wrong command in apps that use those keys differently. SensibleSideButtons instead catches the two clicks with an event tap and sends a three-finger swipe gesture in their place. The Logitech MX Master sends the same gesture, which is how the developer found the approach. The swipe reaches the view under the pointer, so any app that supports that gesture can navigate, with or without a keyboard shortcut.
+
+Version 1.0.9 ships as a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+The app sits in the menu bar, and you can switch the behavior off from its menu. Quitting it restores the default buttons. To have it open when you log in, add it to Login Items; the README lists the steps for old and new versions of macOS.

-Sequel Ace is a graphical client for MySQL and MariaDB. Browse tables, inspect structure and run SQL queries from a native Mac interface.
+Sequel Ace connects to a MySQL or MariaDB server and opens its databases in a window, where you browse tables and run queries. It carries on from Sequel Pro, the older Mac client, and can import your saved Sequel Pro favorites.
-It continues the Sequel Pro lineage and supports common connection workflows, including SSH. Check the project documentation for database and authentication compatibility.
+Connections can use:
+
+- standard TCP/IP or a local socket
+- an SSH tunnel
+- AWS RDS or Aurora with IAM authentication
+- short-lived credentials from HashiCorp Vault
+
+Favorites keep their passwords in the Keychain. A `mysql://` URL opens a connection from a script or an access tool, and each new window can hold another server. A built-in MCP server lets AI agents query your connections; it is off by default, listens only on localhost and stays read-only unless you change that.
+
+The app is sandboxed, and that has costs. It cannot reach a socket outside its own container, so a local server needs its socket placed there, or you connect to 127.0.0.1 over TCP. Your `~/.ssh/config` is ignored until you choose it in the Network settings.
+
+Sequel Ace requires macOS 13.5 or later and runs on Apple silicon and Intel. It supports MySQL 5.7 and later and MariaDB 10.0 and later. Older releases for earlier macOS versions and MySQL 5.6 stay on GitHub, without support. The same app is on the Mac App Store, and the GitHub ZIP holds a Universal build, Developer ID-signed and notarized.

-Session provides desktop messaging with an account model that does not depend on a phone number. It offers conversations and groups through its network.
+Session sends end-to-end encrypted messages between Account IDs, so you sign up without a phone number or an email address. On the Mac you create a new ID or restore an existing one, then chat one to one, in small groups or in Communities of more than 100 members.
+
+Messages do not pass through one central server. They travel over a network of nodes run by the community, wrapped in onion requests so that no single node sees both where a message came from and where it goes. The project says it collects no personal data.
+
+The FAQ links to a Quarkslab audit of the desktop, Android and iOS clients. Version 1.18.3 requires macOS Ventura (13) or later and comes as separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel Macs. Its release page lists SHA-256 hashes of the files signed with a developer's GPG key, and the README shows how to check a DMG against them.
+
+- Messages can be set to disappear.
+- The desktop app can encrypt its local database behind a PIN or password.
+- A recovery password, a list of words, brings your Account ID back on a new device.
+- You can change the theme.
+
+Write that recovery password down. With no central account server, a lost one cannot be reset. Restoring brings back only the last 14 days of messages, and contacts and groups are lost if none of your devices has been online for 30 days.
-The desktop client is published as open-source software. macOS releases are provided for supported processor architectures.

-It does not provide servers itself. The latest release, 1.10.3, dates from October 2024, and Homebrew disabled its cask in 2026 because the build fails Gatekeeper checks.
+The current line, ShadowsocksX-NG 2, is a rewrite still in development, and its releases so far are alphas. It needs macOS 15 or later and an Apple silicon Mac. The 2.0.0-alpha.2 disk image is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The older 1.x app remains on the releases page, but it is no longer maintained.
+
+- Add or import servers, sort them into groups and mark favourites, or follow an HTTPS subscription in the SIP-008 format, with the traffic and expiry figures your provider reports.
+- Pick global, rules or direct mode. Rules mode has presets built around the GFW List and mainland China addresses, and each preset takes your own rules.
+- Use Shadowsocks 2022 ciphers and identity headers, test latency, and spread load over several servers through upstream `sslocal`.
+- Run the bundled v2ray-plugin or Cloak, or set up your own plugins. The v2ray-plugin Hysteria2 transport works only when the server runs that mode too.
+
+Devices on your network can share the proxies once you switch on the LAN listeners, which start off and can ask for credentials. The server library and listener settings are encrypted on the Mac with age. The developers say diagnostic reports leave out passwords, plugin options and subscription URLs. The interface is in English and Simplified Chinese, and the app can start at login.

-Shifty adds more direct control over macOS Night Shift, including temperature adjustments and temporary pauses. Exceptions can keep color-sensitive apps from inheriting a warmer display setting.
+Shifty sits in the menu bar and gives you more control over Night Shift, the warm-display mode built into macOS. Open its menu to turn Night Shift on or off and drag a slider to set the color temperature without going through System Settings.
-It relies on Apple's Night Shift support. The project documents supported browsers for website-specific behavior and provides downloadable releases.
+- You can switch Night Shift off for specific apps, so a photo editor or video player shows true colors while everything else stays warm.
+- Website exceptions do the same for particular sites in Safari, Chrome and Vivaldi.
+- Night Shift can be paused for a custom period of time.
+- Quick Toggle makes switching Night Shift on and off faster.
+- Dark mode can follow the Night Shift schedule.
+- Global keyboard shortcuts cover common Shifty actions.
+- Night Shift rules can also apply to True Tone.
+
+The latest release, Shifty 1.2 from October 2021, needs macOS 10.12.4 or later. It is a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Shifty is free under the GPLv3, and Homebrew installs it as a cask.
+
+Because Shifty drives Apple's own feature rather than its own color filter, your Mac has to meet Apple's requirements for Night Shift. By contrast, f.lux is a separate program that adapts the display's color to the time of day.

-Shotcut combines a timeline with video and audio filters for assembling clips into a finished edit. Its format support makes it useful when footage comes from several sources.
+Shotcut edits video on a multitrack timeline. It works on files where they are, with no import step, so clips of different formats, resolutions and frame rates can sit together in one project. FFmpeg does the decoding, so current audio and video formats open, along with image sequences and images such as AVIF, WebP and SVG.
-You can arrange tracks, adjust sound, and export a project without moving into a separate conversion application.
+- Video filters run from chroma key, stabilization and motion tracking to 3D LUTs, lens correction and three-way color wheels.
+- Audio gets loudness and peak scopes, noise reduction, automatic ducking, voiceover recorded straight to the timeline and surround or Ambisonic layouts.
+- Subtitles can be imported from SRT, VTT, ASS and SSA, generated from speech, edited and burned in.
+- Projects handle 4K and 8K, HDR10 and HLG, and 10-bit video from input to export.
+
+Export also covers single frames, image sequences, CMX3600 edit decision lists and batch conversion. The app can capture from a webcam and play network streams.
+
+Final Cut Pro is Apple's editor for Mac and iPad, sold as a one-time App Store purchase or inside the Apple Creator Studio bundle. Shotcut is free and open source, and the same editor runs on Windows and Linux.
+
+Older Macs get their own builds. The current one is a Universal disk image for macOS 12 and later. Version 24.11.17 is the last for macOS 11, and 24.01.31 the last for 10.14 and 10.15. Macs from 2013 or earlier can show wrong preview colors since the switch to Metal, and 22.12.21 is offered for them. An unsigned app bundle is published too, for anyone who wants to modify the build under the GPL.

-Shotnix combines a screenshot tool and a screen recorder. Captures can cover an area, a window, whole displays or a scrolling page, then be annotated with arrows, text, numbered steps, highlights and blur, pinned on screen, or kept in a history; text recognition copies text out of any image.
+Shotnix takes screenshots and screen recordings from the menu bar, then lets you mark up a shot or turn a recording into a finished demo video. Area, window and full-screen shots have default shortcuts, Shift-Command-4, 5 and 3.
-Recordings open in a built-in editor that adds zooms on clicks, a smoothed cursor and captions generated on the Mac. The project requires macOS 13 or later and still tags its frequent GitHub releases as beta.
+- Captures take a region, one window, the whole screen, every connected display at once as separate images, or a scrolling page joined into one tall image.
+- The markup editor draws arrows, boxes, ellipses, text and callout bubbles, numbers steps, dims everything outside a spotlight, and blurs or pixelates private details.
+- Text recognition copies text from any part of the screen and keeps tables in reading order. History finds old captures by the text inside them.
+- Shots can be pinned to float on the desktop, where they can be moved and resized.
+
+Recordings run at 60 fps and can include system audio, the microphone and a camera. A crash does not lose the take. Each recording opens in the video editor with zooms on your clicks, a smoothed redraw of the real cursor and your saved look already applied. Captions and edit-by-text come from your narration through Apple's on-device speech recognition, and macOS 15 adds caption translation. Exports go to MP4 or GIF.
+
+CleanShot X covers similar captures, and its Basic plan is a one-time purchase with a year of updates. It also uploads captures to CleanShot Cloud and hands back a share link. Shotnix has no account, no cloud and no share links, and it is free under the MIT license. The developer says the app goes online only to check for updates.
+
+Shotnix needs macOS 13 or later on an Apple silicon Mac; the official download does not run on Intel. The v0.30.0-beta DMG is notarized. Current releases still carry a beta tag.

-Shuffle is a file manager for people who find Finder limiting. It offers tabs, split panes with independent history, a fuzzy command palette, an optional shell-like command bar, and themes, with GPU-rendered lists intended to stay fast in very large folders.
+Shuffle browses and moves files in tabs and side-by-side panes, with most actions on the keyboard. Press Command-P and type a few letters of a path to find any file or folder in your home directory, or press the slash key to filter the folder you are in.
-It is written in Rust with the GPUI framework and is still early, with 0.x releases on GitHub.
+- Dragging a tab to the edge of the window splits it in two, and every pane keeps separate tabs, back history and filter.
+- Space opens a preview pane that highlights code, renders Markdown and CSV tables, lists archive contents, scrolls through PDFs and plays video and audio.
+- An optional command bar at the bottom moves through folders like a shell, with `cd` and Tab completion.
+- Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive and iCloud are listed automatically beside mounted disks, along with a Connect to Server dialog.
+- Dozens of preset themes, among them Catppuccin, Dracula and Nord, can be adjusted color by color while you watch.
+
+File lists are drawn on the GPU through Metal and virtualized, with folders of 100,000 items as the stated target. Slow and network drives load in the background. Copies never overwrite an existing file, and a move between drives deletes the originals only after checking they are unchanged. Undo leaves alone any copy you have edited since.
+
+Shuffle is written in Rust on GPUI, the UI framework behind the Zed editor. It is still at version 0.x, early but usable by its own description. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and it needs macOS 12 or later. Updates arrive through a built-in updater. The whole app is free under the MIT license; the developer says a one-time purchase for extra features may come later, never a subscription.

-Sigil edits EPUB 2 and EPUB 3 books directly, letting you work on the underlying files while checking the rendered result. It suits authors and publishers who need to clean up converted books, adjust metadata and tables of contents, or inspect an existing EPUB.
+Sigil opens an EPUB 2 or EPUB 3 book as the set of files it really is, so you can fix the markup, styles and structure by hand. Code View shows the XHTML and CSS directly, and Preview shows how the page renders.
-Functionality can be extended with plugins from the community index. Releases include separate macOS builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and questions are handled on the MobileRead forums rather than the issue tracker.
+You can start from an existing EPUB or import HTML files, images and style sheets. The work around the text is covered too:
+
+- a Table of Contents generator that handles several heading levels
+- a metadata editor
+- Find & Replace with full PCRE regular expressions
+- spell checking with default and user dictionaries
+- tidying of imported files, with optional prettifying of your code
+- checkpoints, which save snapshots of the book you can compare against later
+
+Plugins extend the editor, and a community index of them is kept on the MobileRead forums. That is also where to ask questions and request features: the developers close feature requests opened on the GitHub issue tracker, which is reserved for code problems and bugs.
+
+Version 2.8.5 follows the EPUB 3.4 spec changes, swaps the old CSS parser for a modern one and adds AVIF and JPEG XL image support. Sigil needs macOS 13 or later. That release has separate Apple silicon and Intel builds, packaged as .txz archives, and the developers state that the Mac builds are signed and notarized. Windows and Linux versions come from the same code.

-Signal Desktop brings conversations from a linked Signal account to a Mac. It provides a desktop interface for messages, media, and calls.
+Signal Desktop puts your Signal conversations on the Mac, where you can read and send messages and make voice and video calls. Signal says all Signal-to-Signal messages and calls are end-to-end encrypted, on linked devices just as on the phone. During a call you can share your whole screen or a single window if nobody else is presenting, and your own video stays hidden while you share.
-The desktop app is linked using Signal on a mobile device. Its source is published under AGPL, while the service has its own operating terms.
+It works only as a linked device, and Signal has to be installed on your Android phone or iPhone first. To link it, you open the Mac app, which shows a QR code, and scan that code from Settings > Linked devices on the phone. During linking you choose whether to transfer message history. With the transfer, the phone sends over every chat plus media from the past 45 days. Without it, getting them later means reinstalling the desktop app and linking again.
+
+The link has limits. If the phone stays offline for more than 30 days, its linked devices are unlinked, and so is a desktop app nobody has used for 45 days. One account can have five linked devices. Relinking always needs the primary phone.
+
+Signal Messenger publishes the source under the AGPLv3, and the same app runs on Windows and Linux. The download page offers a Universal DMG for Apple silicon and Intel. The current build requires macOS 13 or later, and the Apple silicon app from Signal's updater is Developer ID-signed and notarized.

-Simple Comic is a comic viewer designed to keep page turning and zooming out of the way. It handles two-page spreads, rotation and reading order, and bundles a Quick Look extension for previews and thumbnails of comic archives. On Apple silicon it can make text in pages selectable for copying or speech.
+Simple Comic opens a comic archive or a folder of images and shows it page by page, with as few clicks as possible between you and the next page. It reads CBZ, CBR, CB7 and CBT archives, plain ZIP, RAR, 7z, TAR and LHA files, PDFs, and JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP and HEIC images.
-This repository is a maintained fork of the original project, which was abandoned by its first developer. Builds are published as GitHub releases.
+Pages can show one at a time or as two-page spreads. You can rotate them, zoom in and change the page order.
+
+On Apple silicon Macs, Simple Comic runs Apple's text recognition on each page, so the words on a page become selectable. Drag across text to select it, Command-drag to add more, then copy it or have the Mac speak it from the Edit menu or a Control-click menu.
+
+The bundled QuickComic extension adds Quick Look previews and Finder thumbnails for CBR and CBZ files. The developer says the app itself collects no user data.
+
+This repository is a fork of the original Simple Comic by Dancing Tortoise Software, continued after its first maintainer went away. Version 1.9.9 needs macOS 11.5 or later. The GitHub ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and the same app is on the Mac App Store.

-SimpleX Chat provides private conversations using connection links instead of a global user directory. Its desktop application brings the interface to macOS.
+SimpleX Chat sends end-to-end encrypted messages between people who connect by link or QR code, with no phone number, username or other account ID. To start a conversation you share a one-time invitation link with a friend, or show the QR code during a video call or in person, and the connection is made when they open it.
-The project distributes desktop disk images separately from its terminal application. Connection and account models differ from conventional phone-number-based messengers.
+Because there is no identifier to look you up by, nobody can reach you until you hand out a link. You can also create a long-term contact address to post publicly; requests through it arrive for you to accept or reject, and deleting the address later leaves the contacts you made with it in place. Messages use double ratchet encryption with an extra layer on top.
+
+- You can keep as many chat profiles as you like, each stored only on your device.
+- Incognito mode gives every new contact or group a random profile name.
+- The chat database is encrypted and can be exported to move to another device.
+- The desktop app can link to the phone app and use its profile, as long as both are on the same local network.
+
+The Mac app comes as separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, alongside iOS, Android, Windows and Linux apps. A terminal version for the Mac and other systems lets you chat from the command line instead.
+
+The developer says the protocol protects metadata such as who talks to whom and when, and that servers do not store your contacts or groups.

-SiYuan combines document-style editing with links between individual content blocks. This makes it possible to connect a specific idea without duplicating the surrounding note.
+SiYuan breaks every note into content blocks, so you can link to a single paragraph in another document, or embed it, and see the backlinks from the other side. You write in a Markdown editor that renders as you type, with list outlining and block zoom-in for working on one branch at a time.
-The desktop application's source is open. Optional cloud services and some additional features have separate pricing, so review the project's feature comparison.
+- Blocks take custom attributes, and an SQL query embedded in a document collects every block that matches it.
+- A database block shows records in a table view.
+- Flashcards turn your notes into spaced-repetition reviews.
+- Documents hold math formulas, charts, flowcharts, Gantt charts and staves.
+- Export covers standard Markdown with its assets, PDF, Word and HTML.
+- AI writing and question answering run through the OpenAI API, and Tesseract handles OCR.
+
+Everything sits in a workspace folder on disk. Each notebook is a folder of `.sy` documents stored as JSON, with assets, templates and plugins in folders of their own. Do not put that workspace in a third-party sync folder; the project warns this can corrupt data.
+
+Syncing between devices needs a paid membership, either for SiYuan's own cloud storage or for linking your own S3 or WebDAV storage. Working locally costs nothing, including commercial use. The Mac release comes as two DMGs, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel, and there are apps for iPhone and Android too.

-SketchyBar draws a custom bar that can sit over or replace the macOS menu bar. Every item, label, graph, popup and animation is created and changed at runtime through commands, and an event system lets scripts react to things like space changes, media playback or system state.
+SketchyBar draws its own status bar, at the top of the screen by default or at the bottom, and builds it from `sketchybar` commands and shell scripts. You run `sketchybar --add` and `--set` to place icons, labels and scripts, and any item can be added, changed or removed while the bar is running. To use it in place of the macOS menu bar, you set the system bar to hide automatically.
-There is no settings window: configuration lives in a shell script and plugin scripts, and installation goes through the project's Homebrew tap as described in the setup guide. It suits people who are comfortable building their own desktop setup from scripts.
+- Graph items plot data points that a script pushes to them.
+- Space items stand for Mission Control spaces.
+- Alias items mirror an item from the macOS menu bar.
+- Slider items show progress and can be clicked or dragged to set a value.
+- Popup menus open on demand.
+
+Items subscribe to events, and the bar runs their script when one fires. Events cover a front app switch, a space change, volume, brightness and power source changes, sleep and wake, and mouse clicks, hovers and scrolls. The Wi-Fi event has not worked since macOS Sonoma, and the media event is deprecated on macOS 26. Scripts can also poll at a fixed interval.
+
+Setup goes through the developer's Homebrew tap, and `brew services` starts the bar at login. Configuration lives in `~/.config/sketchybar`, beginning from a deliberately sparse example config and plugin scripts. The bar needs the default "Displays have separate Spaces" setting turned on. Its default font is Hack Nerd Font, a separate install if icons go missing. Building from source produces a Universal binary for Apple silicon and Intel. Separate projects add a Lua API and a C header for talking to the bar.
+
+SketchyBar began as a fork of spacebar and was rewritten from scratch. Its idea comes from the status bar that yabai once included. It is licensed under the GPL 3.0.

-Sleepless toggles the system setting that stops a MacBook from sleeping when its lid is closed, even on battery without an external display. A one- or two-hour auto-off timer and a configurable battery floor turn it back off so the machine is not left running until empty.
+Sleepless keeps a MacBook running with the lid closed, on battery and with no external display attached. Turn it on from the cup icon in the menu bar, shut the lid, and a download, build or hotspot keeps going.
-Because it changes a system power setting, the app asks for a one-time privileged grant during setup. The project targets macOS 26 on Apple silicon, and its release builds are ad-hoc signed, so Gatekeeper needs approval on first launch.
+It works by turning on `pmset disablesleep`, the system flag that stops sleep, then reading the flag back so the menu bar icon shows the real state. Several safety nets turn it off again:
+
+- an auto-off timer of one or two hours, with a live countdown;
+- a battery floor between 5 and 50 percent, 15 by default, while on battery;
+- Low Power Mode, when the Mac is on battery;
+- a restart, which clears the flag.
+
+A menu bar app cannot type an administrator password, so setup adds a sudoers rule that allows exactly two commands: `pmset` with `disablesleep` set to 0 or 1. There is no daemon, helper script or kernel extension, and the uninstall script removes the app, the login item and the rule. The developer calls it safe for light unattended work and warns that a shut lid reduces airflow under heavy sustained load.
+
+Amphetamine also keeps a MacBook awake with its lid closed. The difference is its Triggers, which start a session automatically, for example while an external display is connected or the Mac is on a given Wi-Fi network. Sleepless has no triggers; it runs only after you flip its switch.
+
+Sleepless needs macOS 26 and an Apple silicon Mac. The release ZIP is ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so the first launch needs Open Anyway in Privacy & Security. The developer's Homebrew tap and a source build are the other routes. Since version 1.1.0, each release ships a SHA-256 checksum file, and the README shows how to verify the build attestation.

-SlimHUD changes the on-screen indicators shown when you adjust volume, display brightness, or keyboard backlighting. Its preferences control placement, colors, size, and animation.
+SlimHUD replaces the overlay macOS shows when you change the volume, display brightness or keyboard backlight with a thin bar and a small icon beneath it. Every option sits in a settings window, which you open by launching SlimHUD a second time while it is already running.
-The project provides a direct Mac download. Disable its launch-at-login setting and quit the app when you want the standard system indicators back.
+- Each bar has its own colour, with a separate colour for muted volume, and on macOS 10.14 and later the icons can be coloured too.
+- The bar can sit on the left, right, top or bottom edge of the screen, at a size you set.
+- Several animation styles control how it appears and disappears, among them fade, grow, shrink and side variants, and an optional shadow takes away the flat look.
+- A continuous-check option shows the bar when you drag a volume or brightness slider, which the developer recommends on Macs with a Touch Bar.
+
+You can install it with `brew install slimhud` or from GitHub, where version 1.5.3 is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that declares macOS 10.13 as its minimum. Updates arrive through Sparkle, with the binaries hosted on GitHub.
+
+There is a launch-at-login switch in settings. To get the standard system overlays back, turn it off or remove SlimHUD from the Applications folder. The developer credits cleanHUD and ProgressHUD-Mac with inspiring the project.

-SlowQuitApps adds a short hold delay to Command-Q across the system, with an on-screen countdown while the shortcut is held. Releasing early cancels the quit, so a slip of the finger near Command-W no longer closes a whole app. Delay length, an app allow-list and the overlay are configured with `defaults` commands.
+SlowQuitApps makes Command-Q wait. While it runs, you have to hold the shortcut for one second before an app quits, and an overlay in the middle of the screen counts down as you hold. Let go early and nothing happens, which protects you when you meant to press Command-W. The developer compares it to the "Warn Before Quitting" option in Google Chrome, applied to every app.
-The last release dates from December 2020 and the README describes Mojave as its development target. macOS asks for Accessibility permission, which may need to be granted again after updates; treat it as an older utility and check that it behaves on your macOS version.
+You change its behaviour with `defaults write com.dteoh.SlowQuitApps` in Terminal, then quit and relaunch the app:
+
+- `delay` sets the hold time in milliseconds.
+- `whitelist` holds bundle IDs of apps that receive Command-Q straight away.
+- `invertList` flips that list, so only the listed apps get the delay.
+- `displayOverlay` turns the countdown overlay off.
+
+Installing through the developer's Homebrew tap adds an `sqa` command that wraps these settings. The app needs the Accessibility permission, and the README says that after each upgrade you have to remove SlowQuitApps from the Accessibility list and add it back.
+
+The last release, 0.8.1 from December 2020, is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel with macOS 10.14 as its declared minimum. The README says the app is developed on Mojave and only Mojave is supported, and it keeps versions 0.5.0 and 0.4.0 for older systems.

+The README sets out its usage as seven numbered steps:
+
+1. Drag a .cer certificate from any location onto the certificate picker, choose a push certificate from the list control, or browse to one stored anywhere.
+2. Enter the matching device token, which the README notes differs between environments.
+3. Type a payload or pick one.
+4. Choose the environment the push goes to.
+5. Connect to the push server.
+6. Send the push.
+7. The phone receives the push message.

-Snapzy is a menu-bar capture tool covering full-screen, area and window screenshots, screen recording, annotation and basic editing in one place. It positions itself as an open-source alternative to commercial capture apps such as CleanShot X.
+Snapzy binds its captures to the familiar shortcuts by default: Shift-Command-4 grabs an area and Shift-Command-3 the whole screen. Each capture lands on a floating card, where you copy it, drag it into another app, open it for markup or pin it above your other windows.
-Builds are signed and notarized and require macOS 13 or later; recent GitHub releases are labelled beta. The app is not sandboxed, and screen capture needs the usual macOS recording permission.
+- Scrolling capture stitches a long page into one image and shows a preview while you scroll.
+- Recordings can include system audio, the microphone and a camera overlay, and save as video or GIF. The video editor trims clips and adds zoom or speed segments.
+- The annotation editor has arrows, shapes, text, blur and pixelation, and it can find sensitive data to redact on the Mac itself.
+- Text recognition uses Apple's Vision framework, or an OpenAI-compatible endpoint you configure. A loupe copies any pixel's colour in formats from HEX to OKLCH.
+- A history panel searches past screenshots, videos and GIFs by name, type or time.
+
+Nothing is uploaded unless you ask. You can send a capture to Google Drive, Cloudflare R2 or an S3 bucket. The developer says files go straight to that provider, and that credentials stay in the Keychain. A `snapzy` command-line helper and a `snapzy://` URL scheme let scripts and launchers trigger captures.
+
+The README names CleanShot X as the inspiration, and the capture, markup and recording mix follows it. Snapzy publishes its code under the BSD 3-Clause license, with build instructions in the repository.
+
+Snapzy needs macOS 13 or later. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. It runs outside the App Sandbox and asks for Screen Recording permission on first launch.

-Sniffnet captures traffic on a network adapter you choose and presents it as statistics, real-time charts and a list of connections and hosts. Filters narrow the view, and captures can be exported or imported as PCAP files.
+Sniffnet shows what your computer is sending and receiving over the network. You choose a network adapter, optionally set filters, and the app turns the traffic into overall statistics and real-time charts of its intensity, along with a list of connections you can search and inspect as they happen.
-It is easier to approach than a full protocol analyser while still useful for spotting unexpected connections. Separate Intel and Apple silicon disk images are published on GitHub; capturing traffic may require the dependencies the project documents for each platform.
+- Remote hosts are labelled with their domain name, ASN and geographic location, with the ASN and location data coming from MaxMind.
+- It recognises more than 6,000 upper-layer services, protocols, trojans and worms, and picks out connections inside your local network.
+- It shows which programs are generating traffic, and you can mark hosts, services and programs as favourites.
+- Custom notifications fire when network events you define occur, and imported IP blacklists flag connections that may be dangerous.
+- Capture reports can be exported as PCAP files, and PCAP files can be imported.
+
+Sniffnet also runs on Windows and Linux. Version 1.5.1 offers separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and the README asks you to install the dependencies it lists for your operating system as well.
+
+Monitoring carries on while the window is minimised. The interface is built with iced, a GUI library for Rust, comes in several styles including custom themes, and is translated into more than 25 languages. The project's Wiki serves as the full manual, and the README's troubleshooting section suggests setting `ICED_BACKEND=tiny-skia` to switch to a CPU renderer if the interface shows glitches.

-Snk is a compact take on Snake from the developer of Itsycal. Pick one of three levels with the number keys, steer with the arrow keys or WASD, and start again after a crash with a single key press.
+Snk puts the classic game of Snake in a Mac window. It comes from mowglii.com, the developer behind Itsycal. Press 1, 2 or 3 to choose a level and steer with the arrow keys or WASD. When the game ends, Space dismisses the game-over screen, or you type a level number to play again straight away.
-The current version is a notarized app for macOS 11 and later that the developer describes as running natively on Intel and Apple silicon; an older build remains available for macOS 10.10. Downloads come from mowglii.com, and the app updates itself through Sparkle. Its soundtrack uses third-party tracks credited in the README.
+Themes change how the board looks, and the window switches between a small and a large size. In version 1.2.1 the grid grew slightly to 15 by 14 squares, so that a game can actually be won by filling the whole board with snake. Music arrived in version 1.1.0, and the README credits three tracks: 8-Bit Melody by KingGJMaytryx, Bibo by Yo, L and Flight of the Bumblebee by 8BitUzz.
+
+Snk 1.4.0 is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel and requires macOS 11 or later. The ZIP on mowglii.com is Developer ID-signed and notarized, and the app updates itself through Sparkle. Version 1.1.3 stays available on the version history page for macOS 10.10 and later. The source is written in Swift and published under the MIT license.

-Sol is a keyboard launcher in the Spotlight and Raycast mould, aimed at speed with very little setup. Beyond finding apps it handles custom shortcuts and links, imported browser bookmarks, AppleScript commands, an emoji picker, a scratchpad, quick maths and translation, and your next calendar appointment in the menu bar.
+Sol opens a search field over whatever you are doing, finds the app or file you type, and launches it. The same field runs quick maths and translation and imports your browser bookmarks, so links to sites you use often come up next to apps.
-It also includes a clipboard manager, basic window management, and small developer helpers such as UUID generation and JSON formatting. Releases are published on GitHub and the app is available as the official `sol` Homebrew cask.
+- A clipboard manager keeps your copy history, opened with Shift-Command-V.
+- The emoji picker, on Control-Command-Space, hides emoji that your macOS version cannot show and can apply a preferred skin tone.
+- Window management moves and resizes windows from the keyboard.
+- A scratchpad holds quick notes you can reach from anywhere.
+- Calendar integration lists upcoming events in the launcher and shows the next one in the menu bar.
+
+Smaller tools kill processes, show your IP address, retrieve a Wi-Fi password and switch between light and dark mode. Others generate UUIDs, NanoIDs and lorem ipsum or format JSON before pasting it. Custom shortcuts, AppleScript commands and a script runner let you add your own actions, and media keys can be routed to Spotify or Apple Music. The chosen skin tone is saved in `~/.config/sol/config.json`.
+
+Raycast fills the same launcher role and adds a store of community extensions, with AI and cloud sync sold as a Pro plan. Sol is MIT-licensed.
+
+Sol needs macOS 14 or later. The GitHub release is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.

-SolveSpace builds models from geometric constraints that describe dimensions and relationships. Adjust a parameter and the linked geometry updates accordingly.
+SolveSpace is parametric CAD: you draw sketches, tie them down with dimensions and constraints, and a constraint solver works out the geometry that follows from them.
-It is useful for small mechanical parts, assemblies, and precise sketches without a large CAD suite. macOS builds are available from the project.
+Sketches become 3D parts through extrude, revolve and helix operations, combined with Boolean union, difference and intersection. The output goes in several directions:
+
+- Flat parts drawn as a single section export to DXF, PDF or SVG.
+- 3D printing takes an STL or another triangle mesh.
+- Laser and waterjet cutting take 2D vector art, and STEP or STL files go to separate CAM software for machining.
+- Assemblies check that parts fit, and the same solver simulates linkages, flat or in 3D, joined by pins, ball joints or sliders.
+
+The solver also handles plane and solid geometry problems. Draw the figure, set the known dimensions, and read the unknown ones off a live drawing in place of hand-worked trigonometry or a spreadsheet. The website has tutorials, a reference manual and a version that runs in the browser.
+
+The 3.3 release for Mac is a DMG with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, built for macOS 11 or later and notarized. Inside the app bundle sits `solvespace-cli`, a command-line companion.
+
+Autodesk Fusion is another program for designing 3D parts. SolveSpace covers that job with the sketch-and-constrain workflow above, and its source is available under the GPLv3.

-SomaFM miniplayer lives in the menu bar and plays SomaFM's independent internet radio channels without a window. The menu shows the current station and track with a play/pause button, recently played stations, and a click action to copy the track or search for it.
+SomaFM miniplayer plays the internet radio stations of SomaFM from the menu bar. Its author describes it as an unofficial, minimal player. You open its menu from the status item, choose a station and listen, with the station and current track shown at the top of the menu beside a play/pause button.
-Settings cover starting at login, playing on launch, track notifications and what a left click does. It is a fan project and not affiliated with SomaFM. Version 2.0.0 arrived in 2026 after several years without releases; disk images are on GitHub and the author also lists it on the Mac App Store.
+Clicking the current track either copies it or opens a search for it on Google, YouTube, Apple Music or Spotify, depending on the action you pick in settings. A left click on the status item can open the menu or toggle playback instead; the menu still opens on a right-click, or a click with Control or Option held. The menu bar icon pulses while a stream connects and dims when playback is paused.
+
+Version 2.0.0, released in August 2026, rewrote the app and follows version 1.2.0 from 2019. The GitHub disk image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that is Developer ID-signed and notarized and requires macOS 14 or later. The author also publishes it on the Mac App Store. Building it yourself needs Xcode 26 or later and no third-party dependencies.
+
+Settings are split between playback and behaviour. Playback covers starting at login, playing as soon as the app launches and notifications for new tracks. Behaviour covers the left-click and track-click actions, station sorting and recent stations. With Now Playing support, the media keys and Control Center control playback, even while the Mac is locked.

-Sonic Visualiser displays several views of the same recording so you can examine musical structure and audio detail. Layer annotations and analysis results over a shared timeline.
+Sonic Visualiser opens a music recording and lays waveforms, spectrograms and annotations over one shared timeline, so you can study what happens in the audio and when. It loads WAV, AIFF, Ogg, Opus, MP3 and other formats.
-It is designed for close listening and investigation, making it useful for music study and audio research rather than multitrack production.
+- Spectrograms and other views have display settings you adjust while you look.
+- You annotate by adding labelled time points, segments, point values and curves.
+- Vamp plugins calculate annotations automatically, for example beat positions or pitch.
+- Annotations can be imported from text files and MIDI, and exported along with audio selections.
+
+During playback Sonic Visualiser can play synthesized sounds for the annotations along with the audio, kept in step with the display. You can slow a passage down or speed it up and loop it, including loops built from several separate regions.
+
+Chris Cannam developed most of the program, at Queen Mary University of London's Centre for Digital Music up to version 4.2 and at Particular Programs Ltd for 4.3 to 4.5; the Centre backed version 5.0 again. It is free under the GPL, version 2 or later. The 5.2.1 DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+The download contains no analysis plugins. Fetch Vamp plugins separately from their own download page. For effects, it hosts LADSPA and DSSI plugins, but not VST, Audio Unit or LV2.

-Sparrow gives users a detailed graphical workspace for Bitcoin wallets and transactions. It supports different wallet configurations and connections to compatible devices or servers.
+Sparrow manages Bitcoin wallets on the desktop and shows every detail of what you send and receive. You create or import a wallet, connect it to a server, and see each transaction and unspent output with its inputs, outputs and fees.
-The project publishes macOS disk images and release verification material. Its application license is Apache-2.0.
+- Single-signature and multisig wallets work with common script types.
+- Common hardware wallets connect over USB or in air-gapped mode, and partially signed transactions use the PSBT standard throughout.
+- Coin control lets you choose which outputs a payment spends and set the fee, and you can label every transaction, input and output.
+- Testnet, regtest and signet are built in alongside the main Bitcoin network.
+
+Sparrow can connect through public servers, your own Bitcoin Core node or a private Electrum server, and Tor is built in. A transaction editor doubles as a blockchain explorer: you can change any field of a transaction and inspect its raw bytes before you broadcast it.
+
+Each release comes with a signed manifest. Drop the manifest, its signature and the installer onto an installed copy of Sparrow and it checks the download for you; the same dialog can verify other files, such as hardware wallet firmware. From version 1.5.0 onwards the release binaries can be reproduced from source, up to the point of code signing and packaging.
+
+Separate DMGs are offered for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and the Intel build needs macOS 11 or later. The 2.5.6 Apple silicon DMG is Developer ID-signed and notarized. By default Sparrow keeps its wallets, settings and log in ~/.sparrow.

-Spotifly is a SwiftUI client for browsing your Spotify library, playlists, albums, artists and liked songs, with search, a reorderable queue and a miniplayer. Signing in also registers the Mac as a Spotify Connect device, so it can play locally or control playback on phones and speakers.
+Spotifly plays Spotify on the Mac from a SwiftUI window and needs a Spotify Premium account. You connect it to your account once in the browser, and that single authorisation both signs you in and makes the Mac available as a Spotify Connect device. From then on you can play music on the Mac itself or use Spotifly to control playback on your phone and speakers.
-Its playback is implemented in Swift following the protocol work of librespot, and it requires Spotify Premium. Current releases need macOS 27 or later and are published as ZIP files on GitHub.
+The window covers your library, with playlists, albums, the artists you follow and your liked songs, plus favourites and search, and a queue you reorder by dragging. Spotifly also has a miniplayer. Playback and navigation work from the keyboard. Space plays and pauses, Command with the left or right arrow changes track and Command-L likes the current song. Command-1 to Command-4 jump between Favorites, Playlists, Albums and Artists, and Command-F goes to the search field.
+
+Version 1.4.0 is an Apple silicon app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, that requires macOS 27 or later. It comes as a ZIP from GitHub releases or through the developer's Homebrew tap.
+
+Playback and Spotify Connect are implemented in Swift, following the protocol work of the librespot project, and Ogg Vorbis audio is decoded with Xiph.Org's libogg and libvorbis.

-Sqlectron is a deliberately simple SQL client: save connections, browse databases and tables, run queries and read the results. It covers PostgreSQL, Redshift, MySQL, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server, SQLite and, with some limitations, Cassandra.
+Sqlectron is a small SQL client for connecting to a database and running queries. You save a list of servers, open one, type SQL into the query box, which has autocomplete, and read the results. It talks to PostgreSQL, Redshift, MySQL, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server and SQLite, and to Cassandra with some documented exceptions.
-Saved servers live in a plain configuration file that can be edited or shared. The repository was formerly named sqlectron-gui; macOS DMGs are published with each release and through the `sqlectron` Homebrew cask.
+Settings and saved servers sit in one configuration file under `~/Library/Preferences/Sqlectron`. The project recommends changing them through the app, but the file can be edited by hand. It holds options such as the zoom factor, the row limit for the default SELECT (100 unless changed), autocomplete and logging. A saved server can carry a filter that limits which databases and schemas appear in the sidebar.
+
+The name is pronounced "sequel-eck-tron". A separate project, sqlectron-term, offers a terminal interface. The repository used to be called sqlectron-gui, and some of its own links still use that name.
+
+TablePlus describes itself as a native client for Mac, Windows, Linux and iOS, and its list of engines also covers Redis, MongoDB, Oracle and ClickHouse. Sqlectron is an Electron app that stays with relational databases plus Cassandra.
+
+The latest release, 1.39.0, came out in December 2025, more than three years after 1.38.0, and commits continued into June 2026. It has separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel; the Apple silicon app in that release is Developer ID-signed and notarized. It is also available as the `sqlectron` Homebrew cask.

-SquirrelDisk scans a drive or folder and draws the result as an animated sunburst or treemap, making it easy to see which directories take up space. From there you can review and remove what you no longer need.
+SquirrelDisk shows what is filling a disk and helps you clear it. Point it at a drive or folder and it draws the contents as a sunburst, each folder sized by the space it really takes, and the chart builds up while the scan runs. Click a slice to zoom in, or switch to a treemap in settings.
-Version 2 is a rewrite by the original author and can also scan servers over SSH and some cloud storage. The macOS build is distributed outside the App Store, so the first launch needs confirmation in Privacy & Security settings.
+- You drag slices or list rows into a collector, then move the items to the Trash, delete them for good, or first copy them to an external drive or cloud storage.
+- Permanent deletion can overwrite each file three times (DoD 5220.22-M) before removing it.
+- System folders, your home folder and whole drives are protected, and app and settings folders need an extra confirmation.
+- It scans other machines over SSH, and S3 buckets, Google Drive, Dropbox, FTP and more through rclone, which it can install for you.
+- `squirreldisk scan ` prints the largest items as a tree or as JSON without opening a window.
+
+Files kept only in iCloud, Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive count as zero, and the chart refreshes when you delete something in Finder. A Folder menu setting adds "Scan with SquirrelDisk" to Finder's Quick Actions. The app shows a small sponsor banner.
+
+Version 2 is a rewrite in Rust by the original author, and it updates itself. The macOS disk image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that declares macOS 11 as its minimum; the README explains how to allow it in Privacy & Security on first launch.
+
+DaisyDisk also draws a disk as an interactive map and can scan cloud storage, but it is a one-time purchase with a free trial download. SquirrelDisk is free and runs on Windows and Linux as well.

-SSH Keys Manager gives your `~/.ssh` folder, or another directory you choose, a graphical front end. It lists key pairs with their metadata, generates, renames, duplicates or removes keys, and edits SSH config host entries including their `IdentityFile` lines.
+SSH Keys Manager looks after the files in your `~/.ssh` folder, so routine key and config changes no longer need a trip to Terminal. It can also work on another folder if you keep your keys somewhere else.
-The project notes that its GitHub release builds are unsigned and not notarised, so macOS may refuse to open them until the quarantine attribute is removed. Because it handles private keys, back up your SSH folder before bulk changes.
+- It lists your private and public keys with their metadata.
+- It generates key pairs with a chosen filename, key type, comment and optional passphrase, and renames, duplicates or deletes existing keys or changes their comment or passphrase.
+- A form-based editor creates, edits, reorders and deletes `Host` blocks in your SSH config, assigns `IdentityFile` keys and can check from the sidebar whether configured hosts respond.
+- A menu bar menu copies public or private keys without opening the main window.
+
+A Read-only mode blocks operations that would change existing SSH files, such as editing, overwriting, renaming and deleting, so you can browse and copy keys without risking a working setup. Settings also cover the SSH folder, config backups and the paths to external tools.
+
+The GitHub release is a disk image with an Apple silicon app that requires macOS 14 or later. The README states that this build is unsigned and not notarized, and gives the `xattr` command that clears the quarantine flag if macOS reports the app as damaged. You can also build it yourself with Xcode or the included Makefile.
+
+The app is written in Swift and SwiftUI. The README says parts of the code were generated with AI, then reviewed and corrected by a human developer.

-Standard Notes provides a dedicated place for notes, with tagging, search, and encrypted synchronization. Its open client code lets you inspect how the application works.
+Standard Notes encrypts your notes on the Mac before they sync, and the company says only you can read them. You write in the desktop app, organize notes with tags, and pick them up on the web, Windows, Linux, iPhone or Android. Syncing needs a Standard Notes account, which you register for once and then sign in with on each device.
-The service offers both free and paid plans; advanced editors and other capabilities can depend on the plan you choose.
+The free Standard plan includes:
+
+- end-to-end encrypted sync on any number of devices
+- plain text notes with tags, and offline access
+- a password on individual notes
+- full export, encrypted or as plain text
+- two-factor sign-in and a daily encrypted backup sent by email
+
+Paid plans unlock the Super note type for Markdown, rich text and checklists, plus spreadsheets, nested folders, an authenticator for your 2FA codes, a web clipper and longer revision history. The top plan adds encrypted file storage. The source code is public, and you can host your own sync server.
+
+Release 3.202.11 has separate DMG and ZIP builds for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon app needs macOS 11 or later.
+
+Evernote gathers notes, scans and clipped web pages into notebooks. Google Keep is built for quick notes, lists and reminders. Standard Notes encrypts your notes and tags end to end, and its client code is AGPL-3.0, so you can read how it works.

-Stargate combines a pattern-based DAW with its own suite of instrument and effect plugins, a basic wave editor and a routing matrix that makes sidechaining straightforward. It aims to cover a full music production workflow, with a particular eye on electronic music.
+Stargate bundles a digital audio workstation with its own instrument and effect plugins, meant to cover a whole production in one package, with a focus on electronic dance music. You arrange tracks in a pattern-based sequencer and build sounds from the plugins it ships with.
-Releases include separate macOS disk images for Intel and Apple silicon. The latest release dates from January 2024 and source activity has been sparse since, so treat it as lightly maintained.
+- A routing matrix connects tracks and keeps sidechaining simple.
+- Mixer channels are themselves plugins, chosen per track send, so you can combine them or leave them out.
+- A basic wave editor handles audio files.
+- Audio and MIDI hardware support comes from PortAudio and PortMidi.
+
+The project puts weight on low CPU use. Its suggested minimum hardware is a Raspberry Pi 4, or a dual-core laptop around 15 years old with 1 GB of RAM and a 720p display. Displays from 720p to 4K and above are supported. Demo projects, instruments for its Sampler1 plugin and a public-domain sample pack are separate downloads. On macOS it can also run from a portable flash drive.
+
+The last release, 24.02.2 from January 2024, has separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, alongside Windows and Linux builds. The source is mirrored on GitLab and Codeberg, while releases and issues stay on GitHub.
+
+REAPER covers multitrack audio and MIDI recording, editing, mixing and mastering, hosts thousands of third-party plugin effects and instruments, and can be extended and scripted. It is sold as a license after a 60-day evaluation. Stargate keeps everything inside one free package, so there is nothing else to install.

-Stats puts system measurements in the menu bar, with modules for CPU, memory, storage, networking and other supported hardware. Choose which modules deserve space.
+Stats puts live system readings in the menu bar. You choose which modules to show, and each places a small reading there, such as a CPU graph or network speed. Click one for a popup with more detail. The modules cover:
-Open a module for more detail when you need to understand a busy machine. Sensor and fan information depends on your Mac and the hardware the project supports.
+- CPU and GPU utilisation
+- memory and disk usage
+- network traffic, including your public IP address
+- battery level
+- temperature, voltage and power sensors
+- connected Bluetooth devices
+- a clock with several time zones
+
+iStat Menus shows the same kinds of readings in the menu bar, while Stats is free and MIT-licensed. Fan control is now a legacy feature with no further fixes. On Apple silicon, sensor names are thermal zones rather than individual cores, and Apple changes the sensor keys with each chip.
+
+Stats needs macOS 12 Monterey or newer and does not support beta versions of macOS. An older build for earlier systems is on the project website. On macOS 26, allow the app under System Settings › Menu Bar or its icons stay hidden.
+
+The developer states that Stats collects no telemetry or analytics. Its only outside requests go to the developer's own API for update checks and the public IP lookup, with GitHub as a fallback. An optional Remote module streams metrics to an online System Stats account; local monitoring does not need it. The Sensors and Bluetooth modules use the most energy. Turn them off to lower the app's own load.

-Stellarium simulates a view of the sky for a chosen location and time. Search for objects, display constellation information, and see how the sky changes as time advances.
+Stellarium draws the sky for a place and time you choose, in 3D, as it looks to the naked eye, through binoculars or through a telescope. It has time control, a strong zoom, coordinate grids, and constellation artwork and labels that can be shown over the sky.
-It is useful for learning astronomy and planning observations. Optional data and equipment integrations extend the basic planetarium experience.
+- The default catalogues hold more than 600,000 stars and 80,000 deep-sky objects. Optional catalogues add over 220 million stars and more than a million deep-sky objects.
+- Constellations come from more than 40 sky cultures, and calendars from over 35.
+- The simulation includes the atmosphere, sunrise and sunset, eclipses, comet tails, novae and supernovae.
+- Plugins add artificial satellites, an ocular view and control of a real telescope.
+
+For planetarium domes there is fisheye projection, and a spheric-mirror projection serves low-cost home-built domes. A scripting interface and an HTTP interface for remote control are built in. You can add your own landscapes, deep-sky objects, constellation images and scripts.
+
+The current Mac download is a Universal Qt6 build for macOS 11 or later. The recommended setup is 4 GiB of RAM, a graphics card with OpenGL 3.3 and 10 GiB of disk space. A PDF user guide is published alongside release 26.3. Stellarium is released under GPL-2.0 or later.

-Stik is built for quick capture. A global shortcut opens a post-it over whatever you are doing; when you close it, the note is saved as plain Markdown in a folder on your Mac. There is no account or sync setup.
+Stik opens a floating post-it over your work when you press Command-Shift-S in any app. You type, close it, and Stik writes the note to `~/Documents/Stik/` as an ordinary Markdown file. There is no onboarding and no account, and every shortcut can be changed in settings.
-Beyond capture it offers folders, search, pinned desktop notes, a Markdown editor with wiki links and task lists, on-device voice transcription, and optional per-note encryption. The README lists macOS 14 or later and asks for Accessibility permission for its shortcuts.
+- Command-Shift-D dictates into the open note, and Command-Shift-V opens a new post-it that is already listening. WhisperKit runs the speech model on the Mac's Neural Engine.
+- Command-Shift-C appends text selected in another app, such as Safari or Terminal, to a Clips note.
+- Notes go into folders you name, are found through a command palette, and can be pinned to the desktop as floating stickies.
+- The editor works on Markdown source, with highlights, wiki links, task lists, tables, slash commands, your own templates and an optional Vim mode.
+- A note can be locked with AES-256 encryption and opened with Touch ID or the device password.
+
+Stik is built with Tauri and Rust, requires macOS 14 or later and asks for the Accessibility permission for its global shortcuts. Version 0.9.0 comes as separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel. The Apple silicon app is notarized, though its disk image is not. A built-in updater fetches new versions in the background.
+
+Semantic search and folder suggestions use Apple's NaturalLanguage framework on the Mac. To sync, you turn on iCloud Drive in settings, point Stik at a folder that Dropbox or Syncthing already watches, or push a folder to a git remote. Notes can be imported straight from Apple Notes. The developer says anonymous analytics stay off unless you opt in and never include note content.

+- Short positions, and holdings with a multiplier on their exposure, can be tracked once you turn them on in advanced settings.
+- Price alerts and per-portfolio notifications can also be posted to a Discord or Slack webhook.
+- The menu bar can show total or daily profit and loss, total value, the best or worst stock, or only an icon.
+- Portfolios export to JSON and import back.
+
+An optional setting fills overnight and weekend gaps with Hyperliquid perpetual futures prices, which track the stock but are not official exchange quotes. StockDock can also act as an MCP server, so AI assistants such as Claude Code can read your holdings and quotes, and those holdings then reach whichever AI service you connect. Data is kept in a JSON file in Application Support, and the developer says there is no account, analytics or telemetry.
+
+Version 1.12.0 ships as a universal build for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and requires macOS 14 or later. It comes from GitHub or the developer's Homebrew tap and updates itself through Sparkle.

-Stockfish for Mac puts the Stockfish engine behind a graphical chessboard. Play over-the-board games between two people, or let the engine evaluate any position with best-move arrows and multiple principal variations.
+Stockfish for Mac puts a chess board in front of the Stockfish engine. Two people can play a game on it, or you can load a game or position and let the engine assess it, with an arrow for the best move and several candidate lines shown at once (MultiPV).
-It opens and saves multi-game PGN files, accepts pasted FEN positions, and can drive other UCI engines. The app is distributed free through the Mac App Store; the GitHub repository holds its GPL-licensed source.
+- It opens, reads and saves PGN files that hold many games.
+- FEN strings can be copied and pasted to set up a position.
+- Any UCI chess engine can be used in place of Stockfish, and some UCI options are exposed.
+- Moves can be undone and redone, and the board highlights legal moves.
+
+Stockfish for Mac requires macOS 12 Monterey or later. It is a free download on the Mac App Store, while the GitHub repository holds the GPL-3.0 source and the release notes, with no build attached. The README invites pull requests from anyone who improves it.
+
+Version 2.4.1 from September 2026 bundles Stockfish 19. It fixed how PGN comments are kept, navigation and export in very long games and repetition detection, and it lets engine preferences change while analysis runs. Part of the code comes from Stockfish for iOS, the app by Tord Romstad.

-Strategr is a planner for time-boxing your day. You describe reusable strategies and place them on a day timeline, then move, resize or copy the sessions on it. The v0.1.0 macOS build can import events from Calendar and shows the total time spent on each activity.
+Strategr plans your day as a strategy: a color-coded list of activities and a grid of time slots that you fill with sessions. Select one or more empty slots, drag to the length you want, then click again to assign an activity. Command-Shift-A opens the activities window, and Command-comma opens the time grid settings.
-The release DMG holds an Intel (x86_64) build that is notarized, so it opens without the first-launch override. The latest release is from 2020, but the repository has commits from September 2026. The README says building is supported only on macOS and that the code is being reworked.
+Rearranging is done by dragging. Pull the boundary between two sessions to move time from one to the other, or hold Shift to push the neighboring sessions along. Drag the middle of a session to move it, and hold Option to copy it instead. Command-/ jumps to the current time, and a notification arrives five minutes before each session and again when it starts.
+
+The data model is written in C++17 with a Qt 5 interface, and the same app is offered for Windows. Version 0.1.0, from July 2020, added import from Calendar on macOS and a total duration for each activity. No release has followed it, though the repository still gets commits and the README says the code is being reworked.
+
+The macOS DMG holds an Intel (x86_64) app, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Apple silicon Macs run it through Rosetta, which Apple says remains generally available through macOS 27.
+
+The website calls Strategr a time-boxing tool and not a calendar. A strategy has no dates and no date-bound events, and the site argues that calendar apps handle meetings and appointments well but make full-day planning tedious.

-Streaker shows your current and best GitHub contribution streaks and recent contribution counts in the menu bar. The icon changes depending on whether you have contributed today, and an optional notification reminds you before a streak lapses.
+Streaker keeps your GitHub contribution streak in the menu bar. Its menu lists your best, current and previous streaks, along with your contributions today, your busiest day and the total for the year.
-It is a small Electron utility; the current GitHub release offers an Apple silicon macOS build alongside Windows and Linux packages. Treat it as a motivation tool rather than a measure of productive work.
+The menu bar icon tells you where you stand at a glance. It is empty when you have not contributed today, filled once you have, and wears a crown while you are on your best streak. You can choose between three icon themes, Flame, Tile and Octocat, each drawn for both light and dark menu bars. A reminder notification helps you keep the streak going.
+
+Version 2.6.4 offers a disk image and a ZIP for Apple silicon Macs, with no Intel build, and the app inside declares macOS 13 as its minimum. You can also build it yourself with Node.js and pnpm.
+
+Streaker is an Electron app and also runs on Windows and Linux. The same developer publishes Streaker CLI, a command-line version that draws an ASCII contribution graph, and Contribution, a parser that works out streaks from a GitHub contribution graph page.

-Stretchly runs in the menu bar and interrupts work at configurable intervals with brief micro breaks and longer breaks, each showing a suggestion such as stretching or looking away from the screen. Breaks can be postponed, skipped or made strict, and reminders can pause automatically.
+Stretchly reminds you to step away from the computer. It sits in the menu bar and, with the default settings, interrupts you for 20 seconds every 10 minutes (a Mini break) and for 5 minutes every 30 minutes (a Long break). Each break shows an idea for what to do during the pause, and a notification warns you shortly beforehand: 10 seconds ahead for the short one, 30 for the long one.
-It is an Electron app that is only ad-hoc signed, so macOS asks for a manual approval on first launch. The project recommends its own Homebrew tap; the copy in the main Homebrew cask repository is deprecated.
+Once a break begins, a single postponement is allowed, by 2 minutes for a Mini break or 5 for a Long break. After a set time you can also skip it with Command-X or the link at the bottom of the window. Mini and Long breaks each have an optional strict mode. Breaks pause after 5 minutes of idle time and while Do Not Disturb is on.
+
+Most settings live in the Preferences window, and the rest in a JSON file you can edit by hand. A `stretchly` command talks to a running instance from Terminal, and the README links to an Alfred workflow and a Raycast extension.
+
+Stretchly is a cross-platform Electron app and requires macOS 13 Ventura or later. It is only ad-hoc signed, so the first launch needs approval in Privacy & Security, and the README gives an `xattr` command for Apple silicon Macs. The developer recommends installing it from the project's own Homebrew tap. The `stretchly` cask in Homebrew's main repository has been disabled since 1 September 2026 because the app fails Homebrew's Gatekeeper check.

-String Studio opens Apple .xcstrings files and shows every language in an editable table. You can search, filter by translation state (new, translated, needs review or don't translate), and batch-translate selected strings with an AI service you configure using your own API key. The README says its translation prompts are tuned for Apple's design guidelines. It suits developers and translators who maintain Apple localization catalogs.

+- Filters narrow the table to one translation state (new, translated, needs review or don't translate) or to one language.
+- Batch translation sends the strings you select to an AI provider for the languages you choose.

+
+AI translation needs setup first. In Settings you choose a provider, enter your own API key and test the connection. The default prompts are written with Apple developers and Apple's design guidelines in mind, and you can rewrite them.

-Stringz opens an Xcode project and gathers its localizable content, including `.strings` files, storyboards, XIBs and `Info.plist` entries, into one table with a column per language. Missing translations are highlighted and duplicate values flagged, which makes it easier to see what still needs work before a release.
+Stringz edits the translations of an Xcode app in one window. You open the `.xcodeproj` file, Stringz crawls the project for localizable files and lists them in a sidebar, and each file opens as a table with one column per language.
-It can also add new languages and localize files that were not yet set up for translation. The latest release, 0.7.5, dates from December 2022 and is available from the GitHub releases page or as the `stringz` Homebrew cask. The repository moved from its original `mohakapt/Stringz` address, which now redirects here.
+- Plain `.strings` files, storyboards, XIBs and `Info.plist` all appear in that table, so an app's name and permission prompts can be translated next to its interface text.
+- Missing translations are highlighted, and repeated values get a warning.
+- You can add, change or delete strings, add a new language, and localize files that the project never set up for translation.
+- Undo and redo cover your edits.
+
+The 0.7.5 disk image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 10.15 or later and is notarized. It is also available as the `stringz` Homebrew cask. That release dates from December 2022, and the repository moved from its original `mohakapt/Stringz` address, which now redirects here.
+
+Changes save automatically as you type. Because Xcode reloads a file each time it changes on disk, autosave can be turned off in preferences, which also hold the import and export options. The repository includes the sample app the developer tested Stringz against; running Stringz on it shows how the app should normally behave before you open your own project. Projects are opened through the XcodeEditor library.

-StrokeMouse recognises shapes you draw while holding a mouse button or a modifier key on the trackpad, plus experimental multi-finger touch gestures. Each gesture can trigger a keyboard shortcut, launch an app, manage windows, press media keys or run a shell command or AppleScript, either globally or only in a chosen app.
+StrokeMouse turns a drawn shape into a command. Hold the right, middle or a side mouse button, trace a stroke, and on release the action bound to that shape runs. On a trackpad you hold one modifier key, Fn by default, and move the pointer instead.
-Gesture sets can be exported and imported as JSON. The project notes that releases use a self-signed identity rather than Apple notarisation, so Gatekeeper may ask for confirmation the first time.
+- Actions include keyboard shortcuts, opening an app or a URL, window commands such as Maximize or Close, media keys, Mission Control and Space switching, and shell or AppleScript commands.
+- Each gesture is either global or limited to apps you pick, and global gestures can be switched off in chosen apps.
+- You record one to five samples per gesture, and the closest sample wins.
+- Pressing a middle or side button once, without drawing, can trigger an action too.
+- The gesture library lives in a JSON file under Application Support, and selected gestures can be exported and imported as JSON.
+
+Experimental touch gestures cover 40 classes of three- to five-finger taps, clicks and swipes, plus pinches and rotations. They load Apple's private MultitouchSupport framework at runtime, so a macOS update can break them; mouse strokes and modifier drawing keep working when that happens. External Magic Trackpads are supported on a best-effort basis.
+
+StrokeMouse needs Accessibility access and macOS 14 or later. Releases come as separate Apple silicon and Intel builds, Developer ID-signed and notarized since version 0.0.40, and the app updates itself through Sparkle. Because a gesture can run any shell command or AppleScript, the developer asks you to add only scripts you trust.

+Strongbox keeps your passwords in an encrypted database file that you unlock with one master password. It reads and writes the standard KeePass formats (KDB, and KDBX 3.1 and 4) and Password Safe version 3, so a KeePass database also opens in any KeePass-compatible app on other platforms.
-The app is distributed through the App Store with a free tier and paid Pro features. The repository publishes the functional source for transparency, but omits artwork and some build configuration, and the developers do not accept contributions.
+You choose where that file lives: on the Mac only, in iCloud, Dropbox, OneDrive or Google Drive, or on a WebDAV or SFTP server you run. The App Store listing says cloud databases stay readable while you are offline.
+
+- Face ID or Touch ID unlocks a database, and a YubiKey can protect it as a hardware token.
+- An audit flags weak, short, common and reused passwords and checks them against Have I Been Pwned.
+- A database can also store file attachments, Markdown notes, 2FA codes, passkeys and SSH keys.
+- Two copies of a database can be compared and merged after a sync conflict.
+
+One App Store listing covers the Mac, iPhone and iPad. It is free to download, and Pro features are sold as a subscription or as a one-off lifetime license. 1Password's individual plan, by contrast, is priced per month and billed yearly after a 14-day free trial.
+
+The repository holds all of the functional code under the AGPL but leaves out artwork, images and build configuration, and the developers state that they do not make the app easy to build from it. They give anti-piracy as the reason and state that the repository therefore falls short of the Open Source Initiative's definition. Pull requests are not accepted at the moment.

-SubEthaEdit is a general-purpose text editor for macOS with syntax highlighting for many languages, and it lets several people edit the same document live over a local network or the internet. It has a long history as a commercial app before being released as open source.
+SubEthaEdit is a text and code editor that several people can type into at once. Invite someone to a document and you both write in it live, follow each other through the text or point at a passage by selecting it, and you can change a participant's access permissions. Anyone on the local network can join, and with port forwarding you can share a link with people elsewhere on the internet. Change highlighting shows who wrote what, and on your own files it marks what you changed since opening them.
-Official builds are published on GitHub releases and through the Mac App Store, as linked from the project's website. The most recent release, 5.2.4, has not been followed by newer versions.
+As a solo editor it covers the usual ground:
+
+- Syntax highlighting modes ship for languages including C, Go, Python, Ruby, JavaScript, LaTeX, Markdown and TOML, and you can write your own.
+- Search and replace takes several regex flavors and can be limited to a selection.
+- Block editing lets you Option-click several lines and type on all of them.
+- HTML gets a live web preview that reloads when linked CSS or JavaScript files are saved.
+- The `see` command-line tool lets you pipe text in and out or use SubEthaEdit as your shell editor, and AppleScript support covers automation.
+
+Autocomplete draws on mode keywords and on every document you have open. Undo works in small steps rather than lumping many edits together.
+
+The project site calls it the app that started collaborative editing, now back as free, open-source software under the MIT license. The latest release, 5.2.4 from January 2022, needs macOS 10.13 or later. Its ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that is Developer ID-signed and notarized. Commits on the develop branch continued into November 2025.

-Subler builds and edits MP4 files: it imports tracks from MOV, MP4 and MKV sources, adds chapters and closed captions, and creates the tx3g subtitle tracks that Apple players understand. Metadata such as artwork, episode details and descriptions can be looked up from TMDb, TVDB and the iTunes Store.
+Subler takes video, audio, chapter, subtitle and closed-caption tracks from MOV, MP4 or MKV files and muxes them into a single MP4. Then you tag the file with the details of the movie or TV episode it holds.
-It is a long-standing companion to encoders such as HandBrake for preparing files for the Apple TV app. Most of the code is GPLv2, with some LGPL and permissive files, and the combined app is distributed under GPLv2.
+- Subtitles become TX3G or WebVTT tracks that play on iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, iPod and in QuickTime.
+- Raw streams load directly: H.264 elementary streams (.h264, .264), AAC, AC3, Scenarist closed captions (.scc) and VobSub (.idx).
+- Metadata editing follows the iTunes style of tags.
+- A lookup searches TheMovieDB, TVDB and the iTunes Store for movies and TV shows and fills in the details.
+
+Subler requires macOS 10.13 or later. The current release is a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+The license is mixed. Most of the code is under GPLv2, a few files use GPLv2-or-later, LGPL or BSD-style terms, and the app as a whole is distributed under GPLv2.

-Subtitle Edit provides tools for writing subtitle text, adjusting timing, and converting between subtitle formats. Video and audio views help line up captions with the spoken material.
+Subtitle Edit is for the slow part of captioning a video: getting each line of text to appear and disappear at the right moment. You load a video, watch it in the built-in player, and adjust start and end times against a waveform or spectrogram of the audio track.
-The current project publishes macOS desktop installers. Speech-related features may require additional models or services depending on the chosen workflow.
+For a subtitle file that is off by a steady amount or drifts over time, the Visual Sync window shows two video panes. You pick a line near the start and one near the end, play each to where that line should begin, and the app retimes the rest of the file to match.
+
+The documentation lists many other tools, among them:
+
+- reading and writing more than 380 formats, from SubRip and WebVTT to SCC, EBU STL and iTunes Timed Text
+- speech to text with local engines such as Whisper CPP, or with online services you connect yourself
+- OCR that turns image-based subtitles from DVD or Blu-ray into text
+- spell checking, a Fix Common Errors tool and a Netflix rules check
+- burning subtitles into the video and batch converting many files at once
+- styling, positioning and drawing for Advanced SubStation Alpha (ASSA) files
+
+Subtitle Edit 5 is the cross-platform generation, built with Avalonia UI. There are separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel Macs. They bundle FFmpeg and libmpv, so playback and waveforms need nothing from Homebrew. The README says the disk image has been signed and notarized since version 5.2.0. It also says that editing and converting happen on your Mac and that file content is only sent out when you choose an online translation, speech or OCR service. It needs macOS 12 or later, and the project recommends macOS 14 because that is the oldest release .NET 10 supports.

-Sunshine turns a computer into a streaming host for Moonlight clients on other computers, phones, tablets and TVs. It captures the screen and audio, encodes video with available hardware, receives controller, keyboard and mouse input, and is configured from a local web interface.
+Sunshine turns a computer into a game streaming host for Moonlight, and any Moonlight client on another device can connect to it. You configure Sunshine and pair clients in a web interface, opened in a browser on the host or from a mobile device.
-Most users run it on a gaming PC, but the project publishes macOS disk images for Apple silicon and Intel and lists macOS 14.2 or later. Streaming quality depends heavily on the network and the host's encoder.
+Most of the project's hardware tables are about AMD, Intel and Nvidia graphics on Windows and Linux, and its install guide calls the macOS version experimental. On a Mac, Sunshine captures the screen with ScreenCaptureKit and encodes video through Apple's Video Toolbox, on Apple silicon or Intel graphics. Software encoding is available on every platform.
+
+The README lists macOS 15 or later, though the Apple silicon app in the latest stable release, 2026.914.233613, is built for macOS 14.2 and later. Separate disk images exist for Apple silicon and Intel, and a LizardByte Homebrew tap installs it too. That Apple silicon app is signed with a Developer ID and notarized, though the disk image around it is not signed. The same release carries builds for Windows, Linux and FreeBSD.
+
+For the network, the README lists 5 GHz 802.11ac Wi-Fi at both ends as the minimum, and suggests wired Cat5e or better for 4K and HDR streams.

-Super Productivity combines a task list with planning and time tracking. Tasks can be split into sub-tasks, grouped by project and tag, laid out on boards or a daily schedule next to calendar events, and timed for timesheets and work summaries. Break reminders and Pomodoro or countdown focus sessions are built in.
+Super Productivity keeps your to-do list and your working day in one place. You break tasks into sub-tasks, sort them into projects and tags, then drag them onto a schedule timeline that sits next to your calendar events. You can timebox each task and track the time you spend on it.
-It can pull issues from Jira, GitHub, GitLab, OpenProject and several other services. The Mac app is distributed on GitHub releases and the App Store, alongside web, Windows, Linux and Android versions.
+- Boards sort tasks visually, with a Kanban board and an Eisenhower Matrix built in, or layouts of your own.
+- Focus mode runs Pomodoro, Flowtime or countdown sessions, and a break reminder tells you when to step away.
+- Tracked time turns into time sheets and work summaries you can export to a company time-tracking system.
+- Tasks assigned to you can be imported from Jira, GitHub, GitLab, Linear, Azure DevOps, Trello and several other trackers, with work logs created automatically.
+- Notes, file attachments and project bookmarks keep context next to the work.
+
+CalDAV support is basic. Plugins and custom themes can extend the app and change how it looks.
+
+The app is offline-first and needs no account or registration. Your data stays where you put it. You can sync it between devices through Dropbox, WebDAV or SuperSync, the project's own end-to-end encrypted service, which you can also host yourself. The developer says the app collects no data.
+
+Todoist also keeps tasks and projects in one place on every device. Super Productivity is MIT-licensed and adds time tracking and focus sessions to the list.
+
+The Mac version comes from GitHub releases as Apple silicon, Intel and Universal DMGs, and from the App Store. The Apple silicon build requires macOS 13 and is Developer ID-signed and notarized. The same app runs on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS and in a browser.

-SuperCollider pairs a programming environment with a real-time audio engine. Write synthesis definitions, schedule musical events, and interact with sound while code is running.
+SuperCollider turns code into sound. You type a few lines in its language, evaluate them in the editor, and the audio server plays the result while you keep changing the code.
-Its desktop IDE supports an exploratory workflow for sound design, algorithmic composition, and live performance.
+Four programs make up the download:
+
+- scsynth, the audio server, which runs in real time and ships hundreds of unit generators for synthesis, processing and analysis
+- supernova, an alternative server that spreads DSP work across processor cores
+- sclang, the interpreted language that controls the servers
+- scide, the editor, with the help system built in
+
+Musicians, artists and researchers use it for sound synthesis and algorithmic composition. The full documentation opens in the IDE's own browser. sclang has a package manager called Quarks for extensions, and both servers accept third-party plugins written in C or C++.
+
+To get started, the README links free tutorials, among them the ebook A Gentle Introduction to SuperCollider, and users meet on the scsynth.org forum.
+
+Version 3.14.1 comes as a universal build for macOS 11 or later. A separate legacy build for Intel covers macOS 10.15 or later. The project's downloads page says its macOS builds are signed and notarized, and older releases for earlier systems stay listed there.

+Swift Quit changes what the red close button does. Close the last window of an app and the app quits, so it no longer sits in the Dock with nothing open. You can apply that to every app, limit it to a list you choose, and exclude apps that should keep running with no windows.
-It needs Accessibility permission to watch windows close. The author warns that some users have seen windows close unexpectedly, so it is worth testing with your own apps.

+Setup takes a few steps. After moving the app to Applications, you Control-click it and choose Open, then add Swift Quit to the Accessibility list in System Settings and enable it. A setting can make it start automatically.
+
+Upgrading has a catch: remove the old copy from the Accessibility list before you add the new one. The README warns that some users have seen windows close when they did not expect it, and it tells you to use the app at your own risk.

-SwiftBar turns script output into menu bar items and interactive menus. It can display the status of a service, a quick measurement, or a custom action you use frequently.
+SwiftBar runs scripts you write and shows what they print in the menu bar. Lines before the first `---` become the menu bar title, and the lines after it fill the drop-down menu. A single `echo` line is already a working plugin.
-Browse plugins in the app or write your own executable script. Individual plugins have their own behavior and licensing, separate from the SwiftBar host application.
+On first launch SwiftBar asks for a plugin folder and tries to load every file in it as a plugin, written in any language. It makes new files executable when needed. The file name sets the refresh interval, so `date.1m.sh` runs every minute, and a cron-style schedule can go in the script's metadata instead.
+
+- Parameters after a `|` give each line its own color, font, SF Symbol, image or tooltip.
+- Menu items can open a URL, run a script in the background or in Terminal, or refresh the plugin.
+- Streamable plugins keep running and replace the item each time they print `~~~`.
+- Shortcuts plugins take their output from a shortcut chosen in settings, and ephemeral items can be created through a URL scheme.
+
+The plugin format comes from BitBar and xbar, so plugins written for those apps run in SwiftBar too. The Get Plugins menu item opens a bundled repository of ready-made ones. Items start in no fixed order, and you can Command-drag them into place; SwiftBar remembers the position until the plugin file is renamed.
+
+SwiftBar requires macOS 12 Monterey or later. The GitHub release is a ZIP containing a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it is free under the MIT license. Homebrew installs it as well.

+Shortcuts can include mouse buttons, which matches how some Linux desktops handle windows. Resizing starts from the bottom-right corner by default. Quadrant mode resizes from whichever edge or corner is nearest the pointer instead. Apps you add to an ignore list keep their windows out of reach.
+
+The app runs in the background after setup. It can start at login and hide its menu bar icon. Version 1.5.0 fixed ignored apps swallowing clicks.
+
+SwiftShift controls other apps' windows through the Accessibility permission. The 1.5.0 ZIP on GitHub holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 13 or later, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The same app is free from GitHub releases and Homebrew. The website sells it on a pay-what-you-want basis.

-Switch presents open windows in a searchable picker with recent-use ordering. Keyboard controls let you choose a window, hide an app, or close a window without returning to the Dock.
+Switch takes over Command-Tab and gives each window its own place in the picker, where macOS shows one entry per app. Windows appear most recent first, with thumbnails, and typing a few letters of an app's name or a window's title narrows the list. Return switches and Escape cancels.
-The source uses FSL-1.1-MIT, which restricts competing commercial uses before its future MIT conversion. It is listed separately as source available.
+- Windows on other Spaces carry an OTHER SPACE badge, full-screen windows are listed too, and picking one takes you there.
+- Option-backtick cycles only the windows of the front app.
+- The picker can be a grid or a single-column list, and extra hotkeys limit it to the current Space or display.
+- Shift-Command-W, Q and H close a window, quit its app or hide it without leaving the picker.
+- Apps such as a virtual machine or remote desktop can be set to pass the hotkeys through while they are in front.
+
+The 0.3.23 disk image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 14 and is notarized. The code is under the Functional Source License, which forbids competing commercial use; each version becomes MIT-licensed two years after release, and the current code converts on May 6, 2028.
+
+Switch needs the Accessibility permission to catch Command-Tab. Screen Recording is needed only for thumbnails, so turning them off removes that request. The developer says there are no analytics and no account, and that the only network request is a daily update check you can disable.

-SwitchHosts keeps several named hosts configurations, including local, remote and grouped entries, and writes the selected combination to the system hosts file. It adds syntax highlighting, find and replace, scheduled refresh of remote lists, and a trash for removed entries.
+SwitchHosts stores sets of hosts-file entries side by side and writes the ones you switch on into the system hosts file. You might keep one set that points a domain at a local server and another for staging, then flip between them from the main window or the menu bar.
-It is a cross-platform Tauri app with macOS builds on GitHub releases. Applying changes to the system hosts file may prompt for administrator approval.
+- Entries can be local, remote, grouped or kept in folders, and multiple selection combines several at once.
+- Remote lists download from a URL and refresh by hand, on a schedule or at startup.
+- The editor colors IP addresses, domains and comments, offers find and replace, and toggles a line's comment with Command-/.
+- Removed entries go to a trash, where you can restore or delete them later.
+
+Settings cover the write mode, a proxy, update checks, launch at login, a command to run after applying, and a local HTTP API. Everything lives in `~/.SwitchHosts`. Copying that folder makes a full backup; the export inside the app saves hosts data only, without preferences or history. Local sets can be exported and shared with a team.
+
+The current version is built with Tauri. Release 5.0.3 on GitHub has Apple silicon, Intel and Universal disk images; the Universal image is Developer ID-signed and notarized and requires macOS 10.15. SwitchHosts is free and open source under the Apache 2.0 license.

-Switzy stores Git profiles, each with a name, email address and SSH key, and switches the active one from the menu bar so commits and pushes use the right account. It edits Git configuration and SSH key settings for you instead of requiring manual changes to config files.
+Switzy keeps one Git profile per identity, each with a user name, email address, SSH key and optional signing key, and lets you change the active one from the menu bar. Picking a profile rewrites your global Git configuration, so the next commit and push go out under the right account.
-Notarized disk images are published on GitHub releases and through the developer's Homebrew tap.
+The SSH side is handled too. Switzy can generate, import and delete keys, adds the active profile's key to ssh-agent and removes the previous one when you switch. Since version 1.4.0, pushes are pinned to the profile's own key, so a key loaded for another account cannot be picked up by mistake, and commit signing turns on whenever a profile has a signing key.
+
+Version 1.4.0 also added folder rules. You assign a directory to a profile, and every repository beneath it uses that identity through Git's own `includeIf` setting. Those rules keep working in Terminal, Sourcetree or an IDE even when Switzy is not running, and the menu bar profile covers every repository outside them.
+
+The 1.4.0 disk image holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 13 or later; both the image and the app are notarized. Switzy updates itself through Sparkle and is also available from the developer's Homebrew tap. Linux and Windows versions are planned, with no builds yet.

-Syncalicious keeps the macOS property list (preference) files you choose in sync between Macs, so a setting changed on one machine can reach another. It can also back those files up to a folder you pick, iCloud, Dropbox or Google Drive. It suits people who want their app preferences to follow them across Macs.
+Syncalicious keeps the settings of your Mac apps matched across several Macs by syncing their preference files. Those settings live in property list (plist) files. When you change an app's setting on one machine, Syncalicious can carry it over to the others.

-Syncthing for macOS packages the Syncthing service with a Mac application wrapper. It helps keep the service running and provides convenient access to its synchronization controls.
+Syncthing for macOS runs Syncthing, the file synchronization program, as a menu bar app. You install one app; it brings its own copy of Syncthing, starts it, and shows its state in the menu bar icon. Adding devices and choosing folders happens in the Syncthing web interface, which opens in your browser from that menu.
-The wrapper is MIT licensed; the bundled Syncthing engine is separately MPL-2.0 licensed. It synchronizes configured folders between devices rather than providing cloud storage.
+- It can start at login, so you need no separate Syncthing service.
+- Shared folders open in Finder straight from the menu.
+- Updates arrive through Sparkle from the GitHub releases.
+- Syncthing's log goes to `syncthing.log` in `~/Library/Application Support/Syncthing`.
+
+The app stays small on purpose: no graphs and no advanced configuration windows. It will not work while another Syncthing instance or wrapper is running, so remove those first. In Preferences you can point it at a Syncthing instance already running on the same Mac; the project's FAQ says remote instances are not supported. Process priority can be Normal, Utility or Background. Background is the default and eases the load on the apps you are using, at the cost of slower scans of large folders.
+
+Dropbox syncs a folder through its own cloud storage. Syncthing copies folders directly between your own devices, with no storage provider in between.
+
+Release 2.1.6-1 is a DMG with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The project's README says releases from v2.0.14 on, including this one, need macOS 12 or later, and that the v1 line no longer gets updates. The wrapper is MIT-licensed, and the bundled Syncthing is under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.

-Synfig Studio builds animation from layered vector and bitmap artwork. Its controls interpolate changes between keyframes to reduce the need to draw every frame individually.
+Synfig Studio animates 2D artwork without frame-by-frame drawing. You set a shape or layer at key positions, and Synfig calculates the frames in between, including tweening one vector shape into a different one.
-It is useful for motion graphics and cut-out animation. The project distributes macOS builds alongside its source code.
+- More than 50 layer types cover geometry, gradients, filters, distortions, transformations and fractals.
+- A bone system rigs bitmap images for cut-out animation or drives vector artwork, and a Skeleton Distortion layer applies complex deformations to bitmaps.
+- Parameters of different layers can be linked directly or through math expressions, so you can build character puppets from them.
+- Artwork can be vector, bitmap or a mix of both.
+
+Version 1.5.5 was released in March 2026. Its Mac disk image contains an Intel-only app without a developer signature. If macOS refuses to open it as coming from an unidentified developer, the install guide explains how to open it anyway.
+
+Moho, which Lost Marble sells for macOS and Windows, is also built around rigging, with inverse kinematics, physics and brushes that imitate natural painting. Synfig is free under the GPL and also has Linux builds, and the project offers a development build next to the stable one for trying new features.

-SystemEQ applies a 10- or 31-band parametric equaliser to everything your Mac plays. It includes a large AutoEQ library of headphone correction presets, a hearing calibration mode, room-tuning helpers and real-time visualisations.
+SystemEQ puts a parametric equaliser on your Mac's system output, so Spotify, YouTube and Apple Music all play through it. You pick your speakers or headphones in its Routing view, click Enable EQ, and shape the sound with 10 or 31 bands.
-It routes audio through the BlackHole virtual audio driver, which adds a little latency and means apps sending sound directly to an audio interface bypass the EQ. The project targets macOS 13 or later and is a young, single-maintainer app.
+- The AutoEQ database covers 8,665 headphone models with correction presets from measurers such as oratory1990 and Crinacle, searchable offline and imported with one click.
+- A calibration mode compares test tones against a 1 kHz reference, so you can save a profile matched to your own hearing and A/B it against others.
+- Room tuning by ear and a sine-sweep resonance finder help track down boomy or ringing frequencies.
+- The saved preset can be re-applied automatically when you change the output device, and an auto-preamp guards against clipping.
+
+The 1.4.9 disk image and the app inside it are notarized, and the app is Universal for Apple silicon and Intel, needing macOS 13. The developer says the app sends no telemetry. Update checks are off by default and, when on, contact GitHub with the app version.
+
+How audio reaches the EQ depends on the macOS version. On macOS 14.4 and later, the Automatic backend captures system audio through a process tap, with about 11 ms of latency, and BlackHole stays available as a fallback. On macOS 13 to 14.3 it needs the BlackHole 2ch driver set as the system output, and latency rises to about 25 ms. Either way, you still grant the audio permission the app asks for. A DAW that sends audio straight to an interface skips the EQ unless you set its output to BlackHole 2ch.

-Tabby puts local terminals, SSH connections, and serial sessions in one desktop interface. Profiles and split panes make frequently used connections easier to revisit.
+Tabby opens local shells, SSH sessions, Telnet and serial connections as tabs in one window. SSH and Telnet hosts go into a built-in connection manager, and custom profiles set up the local shells you open.
-It is a cross-platform application with plugins and appearance settings. macOS downloads are provided separately for supported processor architectures.
+- Panes split and nest, tabs can sit on any side of the window, and Tabby reopens your tabs after a restart.
+- The SSH client handles X11 and port forwarding, jump hosts, agent forwarding and login scripts.
+- Serial sessions save their settings, reconnect on their own and can show input and output as hex bytes.
+- An optional dockable window drops down from the top of the screen with a global hotkey.
+
+Secrets and configuration can live in an encrypted vault inside the app. Files move to and from SSH hosts over Zmodem. Shortcuts are fully configurable, including multi-chord ones, and plugins and themes install from the Settings view. A Docker plugin, for example, connects to containers.
+
+Tabby's own README says it is not lightweight, so expect it to use more memory than a minimal terminal.
+
+Each release has separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads for the Mac, as a DMG or ZIP. The code is under the MIT license.
+
+PuTTY covers SSH and Telnet as well, but its official builds target Windows and Unix. MobaXterm adds an X server and network tools in a single Windows application. Tabby has builds for macOS, Windows and Linux, and its README names PuTTY among the programs it is meant to replace.

-TablePro connects to relational and NoSQL databases through bundled and installable drivers, and combines a SQL editor with autocomplete and a Vim mode, an inline-editable data grid, tabs and split panes. Connections can go through SSH tunnels or TLS, and query history is searchable.
+TablePro opens a connection to a database and lets you browse its tables, write queries and edit rows in a grid. PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, Redis, MongoDB and SQL Server work out of the box. Signed driver plugins, released alongside the app, add engines such as Oracle, DuckDB, Snowflake, Cassandra and DynamoDB.
-Optional AI features work with a key for your chosen provider or a local Ollama model. The core client is free for every supported database, while some extras in the Mac app require a paid license. The source is published under AGPL-3.0.
+- The query editor has autocomplete, multi-cursor editing and a Vim mode.
+- Split panes put two views side by side.
+- Connections can run through SSH tunnels or SSL/TLS.
+- Saved queries and a query history keep earlier work close.
+- An AI assistant uses a provider key you supply or a local Ollama model, and an MCP server lets local clients reach your connections.
+
+The database tools are free on every supported engine, with no trial or time limit. Pro and Team plans add paid features on the Mac, and the free version keeps working without either.
+
+TablePro's README sets it against TablePlus, which also handles many databases but is proprietary. TablePro's code is public under AGPL-3.0 or later. The Mac app is written in Swift with Apple's frameworks, and sibling apps exist for iPhone, iPad and Linux.
+
+TablePro needs macOS 13 or later. Homebrew installs it with `brew install --cask tablepro`, and the 0.85.0 DMG on GitHub holds a notarized Universal app.

-Tactile adds haptic feedback to pointing. It watches the accessibility tree under the cursor and fires the Force Touch trackpad's haptic motor when the pointer enters something clickable, giving a physical cue that does not depend on noticing a hover colour.
+Tactile makes the trackpad tick under your finger when the pointer reaches something you can click: a button, link, checkbox, menu or tab. It reads the same accessibility tree VoiceOver uses, so the cue arrives in any app that exposes one, without depending on the hover color an app may draw.
-Haptic patterns can be chosen or composed, and an optional Chrome extension helps with web pages whose controls are not exposed to accessibility. It requires a trackpad with Force Touch and Accessibility permission, and is a new, small project.
+- Each kind of element can have its own waveform, picked from presets such as double taps, ramps or a heartbeat, or composed step by step.
+- Close buttons and controls labeled Delete, Remove or Reset play a separate warning feel.
+- Visual aids for low vision add an outline around the hovered control, a colored circle under the cursor, a crosshair and a label showing the element's type and where it sits.
+- Alerts turn sound into touch: incoming FaceTime, Zoom or Teams calls ring on the trackpad, and an optional mode lets you feel the music the Mac is playing.
+- Keyboard shortcuts, modifiers or every key press can tick as well.
+
+Tactile needs a Force Touch trackpad, the Accessibility permission and macOS 14.6 or later; feeling music also needs System Audio Recording. An optional enhanced mode drives the haptic actuator through a private framework and falls back to standard haptics if that fails. The 1.1.5 disk image and its Universal app are notarized, and updates arrive through Sparkle.
+
+Some web pages build buttons out of plain page elements that never reach the accessibility tree. An optional Chrome extension reads the page itself so those controls tick too. When the mouse is still, Tactile does no work at all.

-Tad opens tabular data files and database tables in a fast scrolling grid backed by an embedded DuckDB engine. A hierarchical pivot table lets you group, filter, aggregate, sort and reorder columns without writing SQL, and it can be launched from the command line with a file path.
+Tad opens a CSV or Parquet file, or a table in a SQLite or DuckDB database, and shows it in a grid that scrolls through the whole data set, millions of rows included. You can start it from Terminal with `tad` and a file name, open a whole folder of data files, or switch between tables and files in its Data Sources sidebar.
-Releases include macOS builds for Apple silicon and Intel. The latest release, 0.14.0, dates from June 2024.
+The view doubles as a pivot table. A few clicks group rows by one or more columns, and from there you can filter, aggregate, sort, pick which columns to show, reorder them and apply basic column formatting, all without typing a query. Behind the grid sits an in-memory DuckDB instance, and Tad turns each change in the interface into SQL that DuckDB runs.
+
+Smaller conveniences have accumulated across releases:
+
+- Interactive histograms for numeric columns.
+- Direct copy and paste into Excel or Google Sheets.
+- Export of the filtered result as CSV or Parquet.
+- Re-import of a CSV or Parquet file that changed on disk when you reload it.
+
+The developer describes Tad as a hobby project that is always a work in progress and warns that you are likely to run into bugs and rough edges. Version 0.14.0, from June 2024, moved it to DuckDB 1.0. It ships as separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, plus builds for Windows and Linux, under the MIT license.

-TaskExplorer brings several views of a running process into one interface: signing information, loaded libraries, files, and connections. It helps investigate activity that a simple process list cannot explain.
+TaskExplorer lists every process on the Mac as it starts and exits, and selecting one shows its loaded dylibs, open files and network connections. An inspector on the right adds the path, arguments, user, parent, hashes and full code-signing details.
-The project documents its system-extension permissions and optional integrations. Some enrichment features, such as VirusTotal lookups, require separate setup.
+- Each process shows whether it is signed by Apple, by a Developer ID, ad-hoc or not at all.
+- With your own free VirusTotal key, file hashes are checked and flagged items turn red. The files themselves are never uploaded.
+- A filter field takes text and keywords such as `#3rdparty`, `#adhoc`, `#listening` and `#root`, and `#everything` searches dylibs, files and connections too.
+- An assistant in the sidebar answers questions such as which processes listen on the network. It runs on Apple Intelligence, a local Ollama model, or your own Claude or ChatGPT key.
+- A JSON export of everything is available in the app and through the bundled command-line tool.
+
+Version 3 is built on Endpoint Security, so it needs a system extension and Full Disk Access, both approved in System Settings, and the app must run from /Applications. With Claude or ChatGPT selected, process names, paths and arguments go to that provider. The on-device assistant needs macOS 26 and Apple silicon.
+
+Task Manager is the Windows tool for watching and ending processes. On the Mac, Activity Monitor fills that role, while TaskExplorer centres its live process list on code signing, loaded libraries and VirusTotal results.
+
+Version 3.1.0 is a Universal ZIP for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized, and needs macOS 14. TaskExplorer 2.1.0 remains for macOS 11 to 13.

-Telegram Desktop provides access to Telegram chats, channels, and shared files from a computer. The cross-platform client publishes its source under GPL.
+Telegram Desktop puts your Telegram account on the Mac. You sign in with the phone number of the account, and your cloud chats, groups and channels sync from Telegram's servers, so a conversation started on your phone continues here. Files you send can be up to 2 GB each.
-This is the Qt-based Telegram Desktop app, distinct from the separate native Telegram for macOS client. Standard cloud chats should not be confused with end-to-end encrypted secret chats.
+Telegram publishes two Mac apps. This one is the cross-platform client built from the tdesktop repository, the same code that runs on Windows and Linux. The other is a separate macOS-only app, and both sign in to the same account.
+
+Secret chats behave differently from cloud chats. They are end-to-end encrypted and tied to the device where they began, so a secret chat started on your phone never shows up in the desktop app.
+
+Day-to-day tasks follow the desktop layout. The menu button in the top-left corner starts a new group, the "…" button inside a group leads to its administrators, and right-clicking a message lets you report it.
+
+The current release supports macOS 10.13 and later, and version 4.9.9 remains for macOS 10.12. The download page offers a DMG and a Mac App Store build. The source is published under GPLv3 with an OpenSSL exception.

-This is the official source for Telegram's Mac-specific client, distinct from the cross-platform Telegram Desktop app listed separately in this catalog. It covers private and group chats, channels, voice and video calls, and media sharing with a macOS-style interface.
+Telegram for macOS puts your Telegram chats, groups and channels in a Mac window, separate from the cross-platform Telegram Desktop app that this catalog lists on its own. Your messages sync with your phone and other devices. The Mac app works on its own, so the phone does not need to stay online.
-Telegram publishes it through the Mac App Store and as a direct download from its macOS site; the GitHub repository carries source but no binary releases. Using it requires a Telegram account and Telegram's servers.
+- Files of any type can be sent, up to 2 GB each.
+- Groups can hold up to 200,000 members.
+- Bots handle specific tasks inside chats.
+- Voice messages and audio calls use the Mac's microphone, and calls can connect peer to peer.
+- Secret Chats are end-to-end encrypted and can delete messages from both devices after a timer.
+- Themes change how the app looks, and an editor works on photos and videos before you send them.
+
+Regular chat history is stored in Telegram's cloud, so it takes no disk space on the Mac. Telegram says it never gives third parties access to your data or uses it for ads.
+
+You can get the app from the Mac App Store, where it needs macOS 10.13 or later, or as a DMG from macos.telegram.org. A beta build is also offered for testing new features. The GitHub repository holds the source code under GPL v2. Translations and bug reports go through Telegram's own platforms rather than GitHub issues.

-Telephone turns a Mac into a phone for any service that speaks the SIP protocol, such as a VoIP provider or an office PBX. Once a SIP account is configured, calls can be placed and received over the internet or a company network instead of on a physical handset.
+Telephone makes and takes phone calls on the Mac through a SIP account. You add the details from a VoIP provider or your company's phone server, and the Mac replaces a desk phone wherever it has a decent network connection. Without such an account it cannot place calls.
-The app is free on the Mac App Store from its developer, 64 Characters, and the source code is published under the GPL. The last tagged release, 1.6, dates from June 2022, while the repository continues to receive commits.
+- Several SIP accounts can be set up at once.
+- Contact names autocomplete, and clicking a `sip:` or `tel:` link starts a call.
+- Calls can be muted, held and transferred, with call waiting and a call history.
+- Tone signals are sent by pressing number keys while the call window is active.
+- TLS and SRTP encryption are supported.
+
+The app is free on the Mac App Store from its developer, 64 Characters, and needs macOS 10.13 or later. A Telephone Pro subscription unlocks the full call history and up to 30 simultaneous calls, and the developer asks for it to fund continued work.
+
+The source is published under the GPL, but pull requests are not accepted for legal reasons; ideas go into the issue tracker. The latest App Store version, 1.6, dates from June 2022, and the repository has received commits through 2026.

-TetherShot takes full-resolution screenshots of connected phones from the Mac. A trusted iPhone can be captured over a cable or over Wi-Fi, and Android phones are reached through ADB. Each capture is saved to a folder you choose and copied to the clipboard, and a global hotkey can grab every connected device at once.
+TetherShot captures the screen of a phone connected to your Mac and saves it as a PNG. You pick the phone in its window or menu bar menu, or press Shift-Command-7 anywhere, which by default captures every connected device at once. Each image lands in `~/Pictures/TetherShot` or a folder you choose, optionally in a subfolder per device, and is also copied to the clipboard unless you turn that off.
-It is useful for app developers and anyone writing documentation. Wi-Fi capture of iPhones goes through a developer-services tunnel provided by pymobiledevice3, and Android capture requires debugging access through ADB.
+How a phone is reached depends on the platform:
+
+- A trusted iPhone on a cable is captured at full resolution through AVFoundation, with no setup.
+- Wi-Fi capture of an iPhone runs through a RemoteXPC tunnel from pymobiledevice3, which a one-time `tethershot setup-wifi` command installs as a root daemon with admin approval. The iPhone also needs Developer Mode and one USB connection during setup.
+- Android phones are found through ADB and captured over USB or wireless debugging, which needs Android Platform Tools and debugging turned on.
+- The same phone seen over USB and Wi-Fi is merged into one device, and phones you hide stay hidden.
+
+The first capture over a cable triggers a Camera permission request, because the iPhone's screen arrives as a camera-class source; the Mac's own camera is not used. An opt-in setting pastes a hotkey capture into the field you were typing in, which needs Accessibility access.
+
+TetherShot needs macOS 14 or later. The 1.0.22 disk image and its Universal app are notarized, and the app can update itself in place. The developer says there is no account, no analytics and no server, and captures stay on the Mac.

-TeXstudio combines a LaTeX source editor with tools for compiling and reviewing documents. Completion, syntax checking, and navigation help manage equations, references, and larger projects.
+TeXstudio edits LaTeX source and shows you the compiled result. You type in an editor that highlights syntax and suggests commands as you go, press Build & View, and the PDF opens in a viewer beside the text or in its own window.
-A compatible TeX distribution is required to compile documents. The application itself is available as a macOS desktop package.
+- LaTeX commands are completed and their syntax checked, references are checked live, and citations are checked and completed.
+- A structure view outlines the current file and, globally, the whole project.
+- Spelling and grammar are checked inside the editor, and parts of a document can be previewed inline.
+- Forward and inverse search jump between a spot in the PDF and the line that produced it, once SyncTeX is enabled.
+- The Quick Start wizard writes the setup code for a typical new document.
+
+Build & View runs LaTeX and, when needed, BibTeX, sometimes several times, until the final PDF is ready, and the log panel highlights the important messages from the run. A Clean command deletes the auxiliary files a compilation leaves behind but keeps the PDF.
+
+TeXstudio does not include LaTeX itself, so you install a TeX distribution separately before compiling. Version 4.9.9 comes as separate downloads for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, each built for macOS 14.4 or later, alongside builds for Windows and Linux.

-TextMate is a macOS editor for source code and structured text. Bundles combine syntax support, snippets, and commands into reusable editing environments.
+TextMate edits code and structured text, and its support for languages, markup systems and workflows comes from bundles. You install more bundles from Preferences, under Bundles.
-Its project browser and keyboard-driven tools suit working across collections of files. The project publishes the editor source and provides a Mac download.
+- Multiple carets let you change several places at once or swap pieces of code.
+- Snippets carry placeholders and transformations, so a stored piece of text adapts to the context where you insert it.
+- Commands are scripts in any language that reads stdin, writes stdout and uses environment variables.
+- Macros can be saved for reuse, or recorded once as a scratch macro and replayed straight away.
+- File search shows matches in a list you can step through, extract text from or preview replacements in.
+
+Scoped settings attach key shortcuts and settings to a scope selector, which helps when one file mixes languages, a project uses its own build system or third-party code has different formatting. Settings can also go in a `.tm_properties` file, in your home folder or at the root of a project. The file browser marks files changed under version control, and you can open a diff of the current file or commit a subset of changes. Clipboard history, themes, code folding and a live HTML and Markdown preview are built in.
+
+TextMate 2.0.23 is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel that needs macOS 10.12 or later. It is Developer ID-signed and notarized.
+
+Sublime Text covers similar ground with multiple selections and packages, and it needs a paid license for continued use after evaluation. Notepad++ is built for Windows. TextMate's source is GPL version 3 or later, and the name is a trademark of its author, Allan Odgaard.

-Textream displays a script for streamers, presenters and interviewers. It can highlight words as they are recognised, scroll at a fixed speed, or advance only while you are talking. On the Mac the text appears in a Dynamic Island-style overlay, a draggable window, or full screen on a Sidecar iPad.

-Textual is an IRC client that supports IRCv3, SASL, client certificates and bouncers such as ZNC. Chat styles are written in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and it can be extended with plugins and scripts.
+Textual connects you to IRC networks and keeps your servers, channels and private messages in one Mac window, in a light or dark appearance with matching chat styles. Typing gets nickname and channel completion and rich text formatting. Inline images, notifications and a quick channel search cover the rest of the daily chat.
-The source is BSD-licensed, with portions inherited from LimeChat under a two-clause BSD license. Official builds are sold after a 30-day trial. The project changed maintainers in 2026: the current release's source lives on the `v7` branch while `main` is being reworked for Textual 8.
+- Connections support IRCv3, IPv6, SASL and client certificate login, plus ZNC and other bouncers.
+- SSL/TLS settings, certificate trust and proxies can be configured, and OTR can encrypt some private conversations.
+- Rule-based ignore lists, message filters and an address book help keep busy channels readable.
+- Chat styles are written in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, so you can restyle the conversation view.
+- Scripts and addons extend the app in AppleScript, Swift, Python and other languages.
+
+Textual began in 2010 as a fork of LimeChat, which is why part of the code carries LimeChat's two-clause BSD license. Blendbyte took over maintenance from Codeux Software in October 2026 and shipped Textual 7.2.8 later that month. Code for the shipping version 7 sits on the `v7` branch, while `main` is being rebuilt for Textual 8.
+
+The download is a notarized DMG for macOS 12 Monterey or later. It runs free for 30 days, after which it needs a licence, which covers one person on the Macs they own. Once activated, the licence is checked by the app itself without contacting a server. Textual is no longer sold on the Mac App Store.

-Its separate bar can help on displays with a notch. The project documents the permissions required to manage other applications' menu bar items.
+- Groups move and hide several items together, and a group can sit in the bar as a folder with its own icon.
+- Profiles save a whole layout. You can switch them by hand or have Thaw switch when you change display, Space or Focus.
+- Zen Mode hides every section with one shortcut and can turn on by itself while you share your screen.
+- A layout editor shows every item in one window, and you can arrange them from the keyboard.
+
+On a MacBook with a notch, the Thaw Bar puts the items the notch would cover in a separate bar just under the menu bar. Each action has a `thaw://` URL, which lets Shortcuts, Raycast or a shell script drive it.
+
+Thaw needs the Accessibility permission to move items at all. Screen Recording is optional and adds live previews and a wallpaper tint. The developer says Thaw has no analytics and goes online only for updates and their release notes, both of which you can turn off.
+
+Which version you get depends on your Mac. The current 2.1.0 release on GitHub is a Universal app for macOS 26, notarized by Apple. Thaw 1 covers macOS 14, and betas cover macOS 15 and 27.
+
+Bartender also hides and searches menu bar items, and it is sold after a trial. Thaw is free under GPL-3.0 and asks for no account.

-Thock plays a switch sound for every key you press, so a laptop or membrane keyboard sounds like a mechanical board. It runs from the menu bar, ships with recorded switch profiles, and accepts custom sound packs described in a small JSON format.
+Thock plays a recorded switch sound each time you press a key, so typing on a Mac keyboard sounds like typing on a mechanical board. You choose a switch profile from the menu bar icon and keep typing; a global shortcut turns the sounds on and off.
-It can mute itself while Apple Music, Spotify or VLC is playing and resume when the music stops, and sounds can be panned by key position. The author also provides a command-line tool and Raycast extension for control. Builds are published on GitHub releases and through the author's Homebrew tap.
+- Custom sound packs follow a simple JSON structure, so you can import other switch recordings or build your own.
+- Spatial audio places each sound by key and cursor position, using Apple's spatial renderer on headphones and a light stereo pan on speakers, with a slider for the width.
+- Sounds mute while Apple Music, Spotify or VLC is playing and come back when the music stops.
+- Keyboard and mouse sounds have separate volume controls, and key sounds can vary in pitch.
+
+Thock needs macOS 13.5 or later. Version 1.23.0 is a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, and the author also publishes a Homebrew tap.
+
+A command-line tool and a Raycast extension turn the engine on or off and change sound packs without opening the menu, so Thock fits into launcher workflows and terminal scripts. The interface is available in ten languages, from Spanish and Japanese to Vietnamese and Russian.

-Thor does one thing: it lets you bind a global keyboard shortcut to each application you use often, then opens that app whenever you press the combination. It suits people who prefer a fixed set of hotkeys over typing an app's name into a launcher.
+Thor binds a global keyboard shortcut to each application you choose. Press the combination and that app opens. You add apps to a list in Thor's settings and give each one its shortcut, so the apps you use most each sit one key combination away.
-The latest release is 1.5.16 from September 2024. It is available from GitHub releases, a Homebrew cask and the Mac App Store.
+You can reorder the list by dragging, hide Thor's icon from the menu bar, and export your shortcut settings as a JSON file. The README credits the MASShortcut library and says the interface idea came from Pomodoro One.
+
+Version 1.5.16 from September 2024 is the latest release, and the repository has had no commits since then. That version requires macOS 12 or later. The GitHub release is a ZIP containing a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Thor is free under the MIT license, and the README also links to a Mac App Store listing.

-Thunderbird combines email, calendars, and contacts in a desktop workspace. It supports multiple accounts and extensions for adjusting how messages and tasks are handled.
+Thunderbird puts your email, calendars and contacts in one desktop program. Add your mail accounts, then read each one on its own or all of them together in a unified inbox.
-The application is distinct from any email hosting provider. Its current source lives in the Thunderbird desktop repository and builds on Mozilla's shared platform.
+- Filters and tags organize your messages the way you set them up.
+- A calendar and an address book live in the same app as your mail.
+- Microsoft Exchange accounts connect through Exchange Web Services, supported since Thunderbird 145.
+- Add-ons extend the program, though a given release may not work with every add-on.
+
+Thunderbird ships on four channels, and two of them are meant for everyday use. The standard Release adds features and fixes every month. The Extended Support Release collects new features once a year and ships stability and security fixes monthly. Beta and Daily are for testing.
+
+Thunderbird 159 needs macOS 10.15 or later and runs on Intel and Apple silicon Macs. It is built on the Mozilla platform that Firefox uses, and its code goes into a subdirectory of the Firefox source to be built. Versions for Windows and Linux and an Android app come from the same project.
+
+Microsoft Outlook for Mac also reads Gmail, iCloud, Yahoo and IMAP accounts without charge, but if you have no Microsoft 365 subscription it shows ads in your inbox. Thunderbird is free and paid for by donations. Its developers say it collects no personal data and sells no ads in your inbox.

-Time to Leave keeps a simple record of when each working day starts and ends, including lunch. From your working days and daily hour target it works out when you can leave and notifies you at that point. Days you did not work can be recorded as waivers.
+Time to Leave tells you when your working day is done. Punch in when you start, log lunch and other breaks, and it works out when you can go from the hours you set per day. When that time arrives, a notification tells you.
-The Electron app also runs on Windows and Linux. Version 4.0.0 (August 2025) is the latest release, with a macOS disk image on GitHub.
+- Preferences set your working days, the daily hour target and whether notifications appear at all.
+- A day view and a month view show what you logged, with your hour balance kept in sight above the punch button.
+- Waivers mark days off, each with a reason such as vacation or sick leave.
+- Holidays for your country, state and city can be pulled in as waivers.
+- Light, Dark and Cadent Star themes come built in.
+
+There is no database to configure. Since version 2.0.1 a day can hold several entries, and the app converted older data automatically. Version 4.0.0 dropped that converter, so if you still run 1.5.5 or earlier, install 3.0.0 first and then move to 4.0.0.
+
+The app is built with Electron and has Windows and Linux versions too. Version 4.0.0, from August 2025, is the current release, and the Mac download is a disk image on GitHub. It added a Simplified Chinese translation to an interface already offered in many languages. The project's privacy policy says Time to Leave does not collect personal information.

-TimeMate runs a Pomodoro cycle from the menu bar: focus sprints, short breaks and periodic long breaks follow one another automatically, with adjustable durations and gentle notifications at each change. An optional full-screen overlay nudges you to step away during breaks, and the Mac can be kept awake while a focus session is running.
+TimeMate runs Pomodoro sessions from the menu bar, which shows the time left in the current session. Focus sessions, short breaks and long breaks follow in order, and with auto-start on, each one begins as soon as the last ends.
-The interface is available in English and Vietnamese. The project's website points to a free Mac App Store listing, which is the official download; the repository has no GitHub release builds. The README lists macOS 13 or later.
+Out of the box, focus runs for 25 minutes, a short break for 5 and the long break for 15. In the App Store version, Settings takes focus lengths from 5 to 60 minutes, short breaks from 1 to 15, long breaks of up to 60 and 2 to 8 focus sessions before the long break.
+
+- An optional full-screen break screen covers the display with a relaxation tip, and its Skip button unlocks after a five-second countdown.
+- A Keep Mac awake switch stops the Mac from sleeping while a focus session runs.
+- The Dock icon and the time in the menu bar can each be hidden.
+- An alarm sound with a volume slider and a preview button marks the end of a session, and notifications can be turned off.
+
+The app runs on macOS 13.5 or later, in English or Vietnamese. There is no sign-in, and the developer says settings and completed sessions stay on the Mac.
+
+The Mac App Store carries version 3.5, while the GitHub source has moved on to 3.10. Its changelog adds global keyboard shortcuts, session labels, statistics with CSV export, a daily goal and Shortcuts actions, so those features come only with a build from source in Xcode.

-Timer provides a small, direct countdown interface. Drag to choose a duration, release to start, and click to pause; additional timers can be opened in separate windows.
+Timer counts down in its own window. Drag the blue arrow to pick a duration, let go to start, and click once to pause. At zero, a notification appears and a sound plays.
-Keyboard controls can start, restart, and adjust a timer. When time expires, the app uses a notification and sound to bring it back to your attention.
+The keyboard does the same work. Type digits to set the minutes, press Return to start or pause, and press R to restart with the last duration. Command-N opens another timer in its own window.
+
+Version 2.1.0 added ways to start a timer without touching the window:
+
+- a `timer://` link, such as `timer://5` for five minutes
+- launch arguments passed with `open -a Timer --args`
+- AppleScript commands such as `start timer "5"`
+- a `timer-cli` wrapper script for the command line
+
+The link and the launch arguments can name a particular timer window, as in `timer://2:30?window=2`. The same release lets you set a duration with the scroll wheel. A menu picks one of three alert sounds or none, and the Dock icon can carry the remaining time as a badge, which you can turn off.
+
+Timer requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later. The release ZIP holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel; it is ad hoc signed and not notarized. Homebrew installs it as `michaelvillar-timer`.
+
+Michael Villar wrote it in the spirit of the Minutes Dashboard widget by Nitram-nunca, which he had used for years until it went unmaintained.

-TimeScribe tracks working time locally, without an account or cloud service. It can start and pause automatically based on screen activity, record time against projects with hourly rates, plan holidays and sick days, and show daily and weekly patterns.
+TimeScribe records the hours you work so you can see your day, bill clients and fill in timesheets. You start, pause and stop the timer with one click, with a compact view in the menu bar, or let TimeScribe start and pause on its own based on screen time and whether you are idle.
-Reports can be exported to PDF, Excel or CSV, and a deep-link API allows automation. It is also available for Windows; Mac builds come as separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads.
+- Time entries can be assigned to projects with descriptions and hourly rates, and TimeScribe calculates what to bill. Since version 1.18.0 you can mark single entries in a billable project as non-billable.
+- An app usage view shows which programs you used and lets you label them as work or distraction.
+- Holidays, vacation and sick leave go into an absence planner.
+- Day and week views chart your working patterns, and reports export to PDF, Excel or CSV.
+
+Links such as `timescribe://start/work`, `timescribe://start/break` and `timescribe://stop` control the timer, so Shortcuts, Alfred, Raycast or a script can drive it. You can also set your own keyboard shortcuts. The interface comes in a dozen languages, including right-to-left layouts for Arabic, Hebrew and Persian.
+
+The developer says TimeScribe needs no registration and keeps data on your device, in a local SQLite database. It is built with Laravel and NativePHP on Electron and also runs on Windows. Mac builds are separate DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, also available through Homebrew.
+
+RescueTime also logs time on apps and websites automatically, and adds focus sessions plus a separate Timesheets tool for client and project hours. TimeScribe sticks to tracking your own hours and works without an account.

-TimeScroll records your screen over time, makes the recordings searchable, and lets you scroll back through earlier moments to find something you saw. The project says everything is stored only on your Mac. It is aimed at people who want to recover something they glimpsed on screen without remembering where it was.
+Every few seconds, when something on screen has changed, TimeScroll saves a snapshot and indexes the text in it. Later you scroll back through the timeline or search for a word you remember, and jump to the moment it was on screen.
-It requires macOS 14 or later to run, and Xcode to build from source. The repository is kept in step with each app release. The upstream materials do not say whether the release zip is notarized, so check how it opens on first launch.
+- The timeline splits your past activity into work sessions, and a calendar takes you to any day. Search highlights the match on the snapshot and filters by app and date.

+You can exclude apps, delete any time range and encrypt the database and media behind Touch ID or your Mac password, though the vault is still marked beta. The developer says nothing leaves the Mac and there are no accounts or analytics.

-Tintpad is a keyboard launcher that drops out of the MacBook notch, or below the menu bar on other Macs. Choose a repository and press Return to open it in your existing terminal with Claude Code, Codex or another agent CLI started. It remembers frequent repositories and can create worktrees or run an agent in the background.
+Press Option-Command-Space anywhere and Tintpad drops a black panel out of the MacBook notch, listing your repositories. Type a few letters, press Return, and your own terminal opens at that repository with Claude Code, Codex or another agent CLI already running. On a Mac without a notch, the panel hangs below the menu bar.
-Clear labels show which command and permission mode will run, and modes that skip permissions are highlighted. It works locally without an account, and requires the agent CLIs to be installed separately.
+Two chips in the panel show which agent and which permission mode Return will launch. Tab cycles the agent and Shift-Tab the mode. A mode that skips the agent's permission checks turns red and can ask for confirmation before it runs.
+
+- Repositories you open often move to the top, and each remembers the agent and mode you used last.
+- Control-W creates a fresh worktree with an agent inside, and Control-Return runs an agent in the background with an alert when it finishes.
+- Any agent with a command line can be added as a one-line template, such as `claude {mode} {prompt}`.
+- A prompt library, per-repository presets, GitHub import and Command-Return to open the repository in your editor round out the panel.
+
+It works with Ghostty, iTerm2, kitty, WezTerm, Alacritty, Terminal and Warp, and which macOS permission it asks for depends on your terminal. Ghostty needs Accessibility, because Tintpad types the command into it. Terminal and iTerm2 are driven through AppleScript and need Automation, and kitty, Alacritty and WezTerm need neither. Warp opens at the repository with the command left on your clipboard.
+
+You install the agent CLIs yourself. Tintpad needs macOS 14 or later, and the 0.4.4 app is built for Apple silicon only, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. It has no account and no paid version, and the developer says nothing leaves your Mac.

-Tiny Image, previously called TinyPNG4Mac, is a third-party client for the TinyPNG compression service. Drag images or folders onto it, or use the Finder Services menu, to compress them and optionally convert to PNG, JPEG, AVIF or WebP.
+Tiny Image sends the PNG, JPEG and WebP images you drop on its window to TinyPNG and saves the smaller files it gets back. Single files and whole folders both work, dropped on the window or the Dock icon. In Finder, you can also right-click them and choose Services, then Compress with Tiny Image.
-Compression happens on TinyPNG's servers, so you need your own TinyPNG API key and your images are uploaded to that service. Version 2 requires macOS 13 or later.
+The compression happens on TinyPNG's servers, so every image is uploaded there. You need your own API key from tinypng.com/developers, pasted into Settings. The window counts the images compressed this month.
+
+Settings decide what happens to the results:
+
+- Overwrite mode replaces the originals but keeps them until you quit, so you can restore one image or all of them.
+- Save As mode leaves the originals alone and writes the compressed copies to a folder you choose. A file with the same name there gets replaced.
+- Conversion turns every image into PNG, JPEG, AVIF or WebP, or picks whichever of those comes out smallest.
+- Copyright, creation and location metadata can be kept, a feature TinyPNG supports.
+- You set how many images are processed at the same time.
+
+Failed tasks can be retried one by one or all together, and a finished image can be compressed again.
+
+Version 2 needs macOS 13 Ventura or later, and earlier releases remain for older systems. The DMG holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. It is not notarized, and the README points to the Security & Privacy page in System Settings if the app does not open. Until a rename, the app was called TinyPNG4Mac; the developer dropped that name because it contained the words TinyPNG and macOS.

-Tinycast gathers several frequent desktop actions behind a keyboard shortcut. It includes an application launcher, clipboard history, file search, reusable snippets, and custom commands.
+Tinycast opens a search palette from a shortcut you choose, such as Option-Space. Type to launch an app, find a file or a menu item, do a calculation or bring back something you copied.
-Extensions and optional integrations broaden its capabilities. Review the release notes for the build you install, as the project publishes frequent beta updates.
+A new install turns on only the launcher, the calculator and clipboard history. Clipboard history keeps text and images for three months and skips copies from Keychain Access and Passwords. Everything else waits until you switch it on:
+
+- Text snippets that expand from a keyword in any app, with Markdown and placeholders.
+- Window management with 35 commands for halves, thirds and moving between displays.
+- Raycast extensions installed from the Raycast Store, running in JavaScriptCore without Node.
+- AI chat and text actions such as rewrite and translate, through Apple Intelligence, tools such as Claude or Codex, or your own API key.
+- Calendar, floating notes, quicklinks, per-app hotkeys, a hyper key and an app uninstaller.
+
+Coming from Raycast, you can import a `.rayconfig` export from Raycast 2.0 or later to bring over shortcuts, favorites, snippets and clipboard history. Raycast sells a Pro plan on top of its free launcher. Tinycast needs no account, and the developer says it collects no telemetry and will stay free. Alfred also launches apps and searches files, with extra features sold as its Powerpack.
+
+TextExpander is built around text expansion, runs on Mac, Windows, Chrome, iPhone and iPad, and shares snippets across a team. In Tinycast, snippets are one feature among many, off until you switch them on.
+
+Tinycast needs macOS 26. The DMG and ZIP on GitHub are Apple silicon builds, and the DMG is Developer ID-signed and notarized. Intel Macs install through the project's Homebrew tap, and Universal builds also appear on the releases page. A separate `tinycast@beta` cask follows beta releases.

-TBD wraps the yt-dlp downloader in a single-field Mac window. It notices a video link on the clipboard, previews the title and thumbnail, and combines yt-dlp's separate video, audio and merge stages into one progress bar. Finished files land in Downloads and work with drag and drop and Quick Look.
+TBD downloads video and audio from a link you paste into its one text field, handing the actual work to yt-dlp. If a video link is already on the clipboard, the field offers it. The title and thumbnail appear before the download starts.
-An optional Remote Control mode serves a small web page on the local network so a phone can queue downloads on the Mac. FFmpeg is fetched separately rather than bundled. The README lists Apple silicon and macOS 13 or later as requirements.
+Each yt-dlp job fetches the video stream, then the audio, then joins the two. TBD folds those stages into a single progress bar that only moves forward.
+
+- Video comes as MP4 with H.264 preferred, or as MOV, MKV or WebM without re-encoding.
+- Audio can be M4A, Opus, MP3, FLAC or WAV.
+- Trim downloads only the ranges you mark, and each range becomes its own file.
+- A playlist link opens a picker for the whole list, a selection or just the linked video.
+- Jobs run two at a time by default, can be paused, and resume after you quit.
+
+Option-Command-V downloads the link on the clipboard from any app. Remote Control stays off until you turn it on, then serves a web page on your Wi-Fi where a phone can queue links for the Mac.
+
+FFmpeg is not bundled. First launch asks before fetching it, or links to a copy you already have. Once a day, the app checks for new versions of itself, yt-dlp and FFmpeg. TBD needs no account, and the developer says it has no telemetry. It requires macOS 13 or later on an Apple silicon Mac, and the DMG holds a notarized app.
+
+4K Video Downloader Plus covers playlists too, and adds whole channels and subtitle files in SRT. It runs on Windows, macOS and Ubuntu and keeps part of its features behind a paid license. TBD is a Mac-only front end for the open-source yt-dlp, and its phone access is a web page served by the Mac.

-TomatoBar provides a small Pomodoro-style timer with adjustable work and rest periods. Notifications, optional sounds, and a global shortcut help you manage the timer without a large window.
+TomatoBar times Pomodoro work intervals and the breaks between them from a small popover in the menu bar. Press Start, and the countdown can run next to the menu bar icon while you work.
-Its event log and URL controls can connect the timer to a broader workflow. The upstream repository provides macOS releases and describes those integrations.
+You set the length of a work interval, a short break and a long break, plus how many work intervals make up a set before the long break. When work time runs out, a notification announces the break and offers a Skip button. A second one tells you the break is over. Settings also hold a global keyboard shortcut, a Stop after break switch and launch at login. The windup, ding and ticking sounds can each be turned off.
+
+Version 3 needs macOS 11 Big Sur or later. Touch Bar support and older systems stay with the releases before 3.0. The download is a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, and the app is not notarized. Homebrew installs it as the tomatobar cask.
+
+TomatoBar runs fully sandboxed with no entitlements. It logs each change of state in JSON to a file inside its container, which you can feed into other tracking tools. Scripts can drive it as well: `open tomatobar://startStop` starts or stops the timer from Terminal.

+
+Raycast also opens from a hotkey, and it grows through a store of thousands of extensions and a built-in AI assistant. Trace builds its tools into one free, MIT-licensed app.

-Trailer connects to GitHub or GitHub Enterprise with an API token and lists pull requests and issues from the repositories you watch, grouped into sections such as mine, participated and mentioned. Its menu item turns red for unread comments, and Notification Center alerts cover comments, merges and status updates.
+Trailer keeps the pull requests and issues you care about on GitHub or GitHub Enterprise in a menu bar list and tells you when someone comments. You create a GitHub API token, paste it into the setup window, and Trailer starts syncing.
-Because it follows watched repositories, large organisations can produce a lot of noise until you adjust per-repository display settings. It has been maintained since 2013, and an iOS companion is published separately.
+- Items fall into sections such as Mine, Participated, Mentioned, Merged, Closed and All.
+- Labels and CI status can be shown next to each item.
+- Notification Center alerts cover comments, merges and status changes.
+- Typing filters the list, and choosing an item, alert or comment opens it on GitHub.
+
+The menu bar item turns red when comments are unread. Trailer lists everything from the repositories you watch on GitHub, so a long watch list means noisy notifications and slower syncs. Per-repository display settings in Preferences cut that down, and "Set all PRs" and "Set all issues" change every visible repository at once.
+
+Version 1.9.0, from August 2026, rebuilt the menu bar item for macOS 26, sped up sync parsing and moved the app to Swift 6. It requires macOS 15.6 or later, where 1.8.11 ran on macOS 11 and up. The download is a ZIP with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. The developer notes that AI tools were used in this release.
+
+An iOS version, a command-line Trailer for Mac, Linux and Windows, and an Android app by another developer are linked in the README.

-Transmission manages BitTorrent downloads through a compact interface. Control transfer limits, inspect peers and organize active and completed transfers.
+Transmission downloads and seeds BitTorrent files. Open a .torrent file and Transmission fetches its pieces from other peers, then keeps sharing them. The defaults work as installed. A few settings turn on the rest:
-The project provides a native macOS client as well as other interfaces. Its license permits GPL version 2 or version 3, with additional permissions documented upstream.
+- speed limits for downloads and uploads
+- watch folders that pick up any torrent saved into them
+- blocklists of bad peers
+- tracker editing
+- a web interface for controlling the client remotely
+
+The same project builds GTK and Qt clients for Linux and Windows and a headless daemon for servers and NAS boxes. The `transmission-remote` command controls any of them. Three more tools, `transmission-create`, `transmission-show` and `transmission-edit`, make and change .torrent files. The site states that Transmission bundles no ads or toolbars, keeps no features for a paid version and does not track its users.
+
+The Mac download is a single DMG with a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. It requires macOS 12 or later. Version 4.1.4 fixed a security vulnerability in the macOS client, so update any older copy. The code is licensed under GPL version 2 or 3, with an added permission to link OpenSSL.
+
+On the Mac, µTorrent comes as Classic, Web and the newer Neo, each a free download under an EULA. Transmission's source is public, and the same engine runs headless on a server.

-TrayceGUI is a desktop network monitor aimed at containerised development. It captures requests flowing through Docker containers and shows them in a readable list, covering HTTP and HTTPS as well as gRPC, MySQL and Postgres traffic, so you can see what a service is actually sending without adding logging to it.
+Start TrayceGUI with its agent container running beside your services, and the traffic of your local Docker containers appears in a list you can search and filter. You see what a service actually sends and receives without routing it through a proxy.
-The same app includes an API client for composing and sending requests, and it can work with collections in the Bruno format. It is built with Flutter, and macOS DMGs and Linux packages are published on GitHub Releases.
+The capture comes from TrayceAgent, a separate Docker container that attaches eBPF probes and streams what it intercepts back to the GUI. No CA certificate is needed, even for TLS. The protocols it understands:
+
+- HTTP and HTTP/2
+- HTTPS from Go programs and from languages built on OpenSSL, such as Python and Ruby
+- gRPC, decoded with protobuf files you import
+- MySQL and PostgreSQL
+
+The agent's documented `docker run` command starts it privileged, in the host's process namespace and with the Docker socket mounted. The project aims it at local development and testing, and not at production monitoring.
+
+The second half of the app is an API client that reads and writes Bruno collections in the bru-lang format. A collection edited in TrayceGUI still opens in Bruno, and its plain files sit well in git. REST requests, authentication, secrets and JavaScript scripting work today. GraphQL, OpenAPI import, request history and the collection runner are listed as coming soon. Files stay on your machine and no account is involved.
+
+The macOS DMG of release 1.8.2 holds a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel. It is Developer ID-signed and notarized, and its minimum system version is macOS 10.14. A Linux .deb comes from the same release page, and the app is built with Flutter.

-TRex turns a selected screen region into clipboard text. It is useful for text inside an image, a video frame, or a document that does not allow ordinary selection.
+TRex reads text off anything on your screen and puts it on the clipboard. Start a capture from the menu bar or a shortcut you set, drag over the area as you would for a screenshot, and the recognized text is ready to paste. That covers a PDF whose text cannot be selected, a video or a shared screen in a call.
-It also recognizes QR codes and barcodes. A menu bar command or configurable shortcut starts capture, and the recognition features operate locally.
+- TRex also reads QR codes and barcodes, and it can open a URL found in a QR code.
+- Recognition language and a custom word list are set in preferences.
+- A command-line tool ships inside the app bundle, and `trex://` URLs start a capture, a clipboard capture or the preferences window.
+- Captured text can be passed to a Shortcut you choose.
+
+Version 2.0 adds several modes. Multi-region capture takes up to 50 areas at once and merges the results. Watch mode keeps an eye on one region and captures again whenever it changes, sending the text to the clipboard, a file or notifications. A history window keeps earlier captures with thumbnails.
+
+The GitHub download is a ZIP with an Apple silicon app that needs macOS 14 or later, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The same app is sold on the Mac App Store.
+
+Built-in recognition runs offline. The 2.0 release can also hand images to OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama or Apple Intelligence for recognition or cleanup, and it falls back to the built-in engine without a connection. Table detection exports Markdown, CSV or plain text; it uses Apple's document recognition on macOS 26 or later and a language model on older systems.

-Tribler is a BitTorrent client that has been in development since 2004. Instead of connecting you directly to other peers, it can relay traffic through several hops of fellow Tribler users, an approach modelled on Tor, and it adds built-in search for content shared on its peer-to-peer network.
+Add a torrent or magnet link to Tribler and it can download through one, two or three relays, so you never contact the BitTorrent swarm directly. Set the default number of hops in settings, or change it for a single download. Each extra hop makes you harder to find and the download slower, and zero hops turns the protection off.
-The extra hops trade download speed for privacy, and the number of hops is adjustable. macOS disk images accompany each GitHub release alongside the Windows and Linux builds.
+The relays are other Tribler users, since everyone who downloads anonymously also relays for others. Tribler runs its own onion-routing network for torrents, modelled on Tor's protocol but incompatible with the Tor network and without a central directory server. Every layer adds encryption, so with three hops one dishonest relay can no longer see exactly what is going on. Hidden seeding, still experimental, protects uploads the same way, with content encrypted end to end for the downloader.
+
+Search is built in. You look for content from inside the app, without a torrent website. The project has worked on Tribler since 2004, and its developers warn that the anonymity is not yet mature: it targets lawyer-based attacks and censorship, not government agencies.
+
+Release 8.4.3 ships two macOS disk images, labelled arm and i386, and the download page lists macOS 12 or later. Its notes say the Mac app signing is broken. Before Tribler opens, you clear the app's quarantine flag with the `xattr` command given there.
+
+µTorrent's Mac apps center on handling downloads: bandwidth and speed limits, scheduling, swarm health checks, and in µTorrent Web, playing a torrent while it downloads. Tribler's difference is the relay layer between you and other peers, paid for in speed.

-Trilium Notes organizes a large collection of notes into a tree, with links and attributes for connecting related information. Notes can hold rich text, code, and supporting files.
+Trilium Notes files every note somewhere in a tree, nested as deeply as you like. One note can also be cloned into several branches, so a meeting note can sit under both the project and the person. Text notes open in a WYSIWYG editor with tables, images and math, and Markdown syntax you type turns into formatting.
-The TriliumNext project maintains the desktop application. Optional server synchronization is available for people who want access from more than one device.
+- Code notes get syntax highlighting.
+- Attributes on a note drive organization, saved queries and scripts, and a REST API exposes the same data to automation.
+- Canvas notes are Excalidraw sketches. Mind maps and relation maps chart ideas and links, and geo maps pin places and show GPX tracks.
+- Protected notes are encrypted one at a time, and every note keeps a revision history.
+- Evernote exports and Markdown files can be imported, and notes export back to Markdown.
+
+Full-text search and note hoisting, which narrows the tree to one branch, help once the collection grows.
+
+On the Mac everything lives in one `trilium-data` folder in Application Support, with the notes in a single `document.db` database file. Backing up that folder saves the whole collection. Reaching your notes from a second computer or a phone browser means running a Trilium sync server, on your own machine or with a hosting service.
+
+Obsidian works on a folder of plain Markdown files that other editors can open as they are. Trilium's notes stay inside its database and leave it through export.
+
+Each release has separate DMG and ZIP downloads for Apple silicon and Intel Macs.

-Tropy helps turn photographs of archival material into a structured research collection. Add descriptions, group related images, and attach notes so the source context remains easy to find.
+Tropy is for the photos you take in an archive: hundreds of shots of letters, ledgers and pages that land on your disk as IMG_5261.JPG. You import them into a project, combine the photos of one document into a single item, and describe it with metadata from a template you can adjust.
-It is aimed at research images and their evidence, rather than photo retouching. Project files keep the organizational work connected to the images.
+- Tags and lists group items however your project needs, whatever order the archive filed them in.
+- Notes and transcriptions sit with the item, and you can select a detail inside a photo.
+- Image adjustments help make a faded page easier to read.
+- Search runs across items, metadata, notes and tags.
+- Projects export as JSON-LD, CSV or a ZIP archive. Items can go to Zotero or Omeka S, and IIIF manifests can be imported.
+
+Project data is kept in SQLite, the storage format the Library of Congress recommends for preservation. CSV, ZIP, Zotero, Omeka S and IIIF support come as core plugins, and the plugin specification lets you write your own export plugin for a format Tropy lacks.
+
+Tropy started out at George Mason University's Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media (RRCHNM). It is now developed jointly with the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History and Digital Scholar, the nonprofit that also runs Zotero and Omeka.
+
+Version 1.17.3 has a separate Apple silicon DMG, and the app inside is notarized. Tropy also runs on Windows and Linux.

-tty7 separates the terminal window from a background server that owns the shells and panes, so sessions survive quitting the app and layouts can be restored after a reboot without tmux. Remote machines are handled through a built-in SSH stack that keeps files, repositories and panes on the remote side.
+Quit tty7 and the shells you started keep running, because a background server owns the shells and panes, not the window. After a reboot, the layout, the screen contents and supported agent conversations come back, with no tmux involved.
-It also recognizes coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex running in its panes, showing their status and Git context and letting scripts open panes and wait for results. Releases include separate Apple silicon and Intel builds, alongside a nightly channel.
+- Tabs and splits, with Command-P opening Search Everywhere for actions, open tabs, hosts and past agent sessions.
+- Editor-style input in every pane: history-based suggestions, tab completion with explanations, highlighted syntax, multi-line editing and Control-R fuzzy history search, with no plugin to install.
+- A side panel on Command-J with the process tree and listening ports, a file tree, diffs and read-only GitHub issues and pull requests, signed in through `gh`.
+- SSH written in Rust, with saved profiles, passwords in the keychain, an SFTP browser, port forwarding and jump hosts.
+
+For remote work, tty7 installs an unprivileged server on the other machine. Files, repositories, panes and Git data then stay there, and you can reconnect from any client and carry on.
+
+Separate DMGs cover Apple silicon and Intel Macs, both Developer ID-signed and notarized. macOS 14 and later is the tested range. The app checks for updates every six hours, on a stable or nightly channel you pick. The documentation says nothing else leaves your machine apart from remote-server downloads and the GitHub tab's requests, and there is no telemetry or account.
+
+Coding agents get their own handling. The terminal picks out 28 agent CLIs, among them Claude Code and Codex, from the command running in a pane, and never wraps them. Install an agent's hook in settings and its tab gets a status dot, plus a notification when it needs you. The bundled `tty7` command lets a script, or another agent, open a pane, send it a task, wait until it is free and read back the result.

-Tungsten Edge adds a Windows-style taskbar where every open window gets its own card, so returning to a specific document is one click instead of a trip through the Dock's window list. It adds an app drawer, pinned folders that open like Dock stacks, multi-display support and optional auto-hide.
+Tungsten Edge puts a taskbar along the bottom of the screen with one card for each open window, so getting back to a particular document takes a single click. Apps with only one window shrink to an icon. A card with a greyed title belongs to a window that is minimized or whose app is hidden, and clicking it brings the window back.
-Ready-to-run builds come from the official website rather than GitHub releases. The app needs Accessibility permission to list and switch windows.
+- An app drawer at the right end holds apps you rarely use and can keep pinned favorites, like a launcher.
+- Folders pinned beside the Trash open as a fan, grid or list, the way Dock stacks do.
+- With two or more displays, one bar can follow the pointer, or every display can get its own bar that lists only the windows on it.
+- The bar stays visible by default or hides at the bottom edge after a delay you set, and Option-Shift-Command-D switches between the two.
+- A slider in the status menu sets the Dock's wake delay as well, down to never showing it.
+
+The DMG from the official site holds a Universal app for macOS 12 or later; the 0.18.4 build was Developer ID-signed and notarized. Downloads are free until version 1.0, when the app becomes a one-time purchase. People on the founding-user email list before then keep it free.
+
+Listing and switching windows requires the Accessibility permission, which the app asks for on first launch. To keep the bar from flashing when a window enters full screen, it watches clicks, key presses and trackpad gestures for four specific triggers. The developer says other input is never recorded or sent, and the listener can be switched off under Advanced.

-Tunnelblick manages OpenVPN connections through a macOS graphical interface. It can import configurations supplied by a VPN provider or network administrator.
+Tunnelblick connects your Mac to OpenVPN servers. You add the configuration and keys that a VPN provider or network administrator gave you, and Tunnelblick starts and stops the tunnel.
-It is a VPN client, so a compatible server and configuration are still needed. The project provides signed Mac downloads and publishes its source.
+The app bundles what OpenVPN needs on a Mac, including OpenVPN itself, easy-rsa and the tun/tap drivers, so nothing else has to be installed first. It does not come with a VPN service. Your Mac is one end of the tunnel, and you still need access to a server at the other end. The project says it shows no ads, does no tracking and keeps no logs of users' IP addresses.
+
+Stable and beta builds are offered side by side. The download page lists both as notarized Universal builds for Apple silicon and Intel that need macOS 13 or later. It also gives SHA1, MD5 and SHA256 hashes and a GnuPG signature for each disk image, and the app has a built-in updater.
+
+The same page carries user-contributed scripts that hook into a connection. They can mount or unmount a volume, launch or quit a program, or keep track of uptime and bandwidth. The project neither checks nor endorses them, and they run as root, so read one before you install it.

-Tuta Mail, formerly Tutanota, provides encrypted email, contacts and calendar, and its desktop app brings the same client to the Mac. Mail between Tuta users is end-to-end encrypted, and messages to other providers can be protected with a password.
+Tuta Mail for Mac is the desktop client for Tuta's encrypted email, calendar and contacts service. You sign in with a Tuta account, free or on a paid plan, and handle mail, events and contacts in one app.
-You need a Tuta account to use it, with free and paid plans offered by the service. The client source for web, desktop and mobile lives in one GPL-licensed repository, and macOS disk images are attached to desktop releases on GitHub.
+Mailbox data is encrypted end to end, and the scheme is post-quantum. The company says it cannot read the contents. Calendar invitations can be sent encrypted to people on other providers, protected by a password you share with them.
+
+Importing EML or MBOX files into Tuta is a feature of the desktop clients, and the free plan does not include it. That plan has 1 GB of storage and one calendar, while paid plans add custom domains and extra addresses.
+
+The web and desktop clients and the Android and iOS apps are developed in one public repository under GPL-3.0. Desktop builds get their own release tags. Desktop release 366.261105.0, for example, carries a Mac disk image alongside a Windows installer and Linux AppImage.
+
+The project closes issues and comments it suspects were written with the help of large language models, and asks for reports written by people, even incomplete or machine-translated ones.

-TypeCue replays a script you wrote in advance. Each press of a global hotkey sends the next block to whatever field has focus as ordinary keystrokes at a human-like pace, which keeps live demos and recorded tutorials free of typos and identical between takes.
+Write your demo as a list of text blocks, click into any text field, and press Control-Option-X. TypeCue types the next block there as real keystrokes at a human pace, so every take comes out the same and free of typos. Each press sends one block, and pressing again mid-block stops the typing.
-Scripts are managed from the menu bar, with an optional floating panel. The app needs Accessibility permission to send keystrokes and, per its README, macOS 14 or later. It is a young, small project.
+Markers inside a block direct the pace:
+
+- `[0.5]` or `[2]` pauses for that many seconds.
+- `[speed:40]` types at 40 ms per character until `[speed:default]` restores your usual speed.
+- `[enter]` presses Return, which sends the message in a chat app.
+- Line breaks go out as Shift-Return, so a multi-line block does not submit early.
+
+Brackets it does not recognize, such as `array[0]`, are typed as written. Any language and keyboard layout works, right-to-left ones too: characters on your current layout become keystrokes, and the rest arrive by direct Unicode entry. A floating panel can show every block as typed, typing, next or upcoming without taking focus from the target app. The hotkey can be changed in settings.
+
+Scripts are a plain JSON file in Application Support. Three `typecue://` links activate a script, reset the session or reload the file, and the app mirrors its state to `state.json`. Claude Code, Cursor or another agent with access to your Mac can therefore write a script and drive it, and the repository ships an agent skill for that.
+
+Accessibility is the one permission TypeCue asks for. macOS blocks synthetic typing into password fields for every app, and TypeCue flashes a warning when that happens. The developer says it makes no network calls and has no account or analytics, which is also why it never updates itself; Homebrew users upgrade with `brew upgrade`. The 0.1.1 DMG holds a Universal app for macOS 14 or later, Developer ID-signed and notarized.

-Typeflux is a push-to-talk dictation tool: hold the Fn key, speak, release, and the transcript is typed at the cursor in whatever app is in front, with a clipboard copy as a fallback. It can use on-device speech models, so voice does not have to leave the Mac, or a choice of other speech backends.
+Hold Fn, speak and let go, and Typeflux types what you said at the cursor of whichever app is in front. When it cannot insert the text, the transcript lands on the clipboard instead. Select text first and say an instruction such as "make this shorter", and the selection is rewritten in place. That needs a configured language model.
-Double-pressing Fn opens Ask Anything, a voice-driven assistant for questions, rewriting selected text and translation. Named personas hold different instructions for different kinds of writing. The project lists macOS 13 as the minimum and publishes builds for Apple silicon and Intel.
+Speech recognition runs on the Mac with SenseVoice, Whisper or Qwen3-ASR, or through a cloud service. Once a local model is downloaded, dictation works offline.
+
+Dictation is one part of a larger app, with each feature on a shortcut you can change:
+
+- A Command-Space launcher opens apps and files, jumps to browser tabs and runs shell commands. On Apple silicon it also searches inside PDFs and text files.
+- An AI agent edits files in folders you grant, runs commands and operates apps. By default it asks before changing files or running commands.
+- Screenshots cover a region, a window or a scrolling page, with annotation and text recognition. Screen recordings export to MP4 or GIF.
+- Clipboard history keeps text, links, images and files for as long as you choose.
+
+Models come from Typeflux Cloud or from your own keys for OpenAI-compatible, Anthropic or Ollama endpoints. A remote provider receives whatever voice or text you send it. The developer says Typeflux itself collects none of it.
+
+Typeflux needs macOS 13 or later and works without an account. Releases ship separate Apple silicon and Intel builds. The minimal build downloads its speech model on first use, and the full build bundles SenseVoice. The v0.4.0 minimal disk images are signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
+
+Typeflux workflows accept the Script Filter JSON that Alfred uses, so scripts written for Alfred can move over unchanged.

Version 1.8.2 from GitHub is a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Release candidates and daily builds appear as GitHub prereleases and stay out of Homebrew. The app is also on the Mac App Store, and the developer offers commercial licenses for use outside the GPL.

+Wispr Flow also dictates into any app and runs on Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android, with a free tier capped at 2,000 words a week. With a local engine the recording stays on the Mac, and TypeWhisper's source is open.

-Übersicht renders desktop widgets written with web technologies. Use existing widgets or create your own displays for local information, command output, and other data you want to keep visible.
+Übersicht runs shell commands on a timer and draws their output on your desktop as small widgets. A widget can list the three processes using the most memory, or show anything else a command prints, in tables, charts or plain text.
-Widget files can be edited locally and refreshed as you work. Writing custom widgets requires familiarity with JavaScript and the project's widget API.
+Each widget is a single `.jsx` file in the widgets folder. It exports a `command` to run and a `refreshFrequency` in milliseconds, one second by default. A `className` holds the CSS that positions and styles it, and a `render` function draws it with React's JSX. Übersicht watches the folder, so saving a file redraws the widget at once and keeps its state.
+
+Bigger widgets can split their code into modules and import node modules. They can also manage state with an `updateState` function, and an `init` function can open a WebSocket instead of polling a command. Older widgets written in CoffeeScript still run. The project's site links a collection of ready-made widgets to start from.

-Cura takes a model and prepares the layer-by-layer instructions for a 3D printer. Presets offer a starting point, while detailed settings let you tune supports, quality, and materials.
+Cura slices a 3D model into the layer-by-layer G-code that a printer follows. You load the model, pick your printer and a quality and speed, and the layer preview shows how each layer will print before you send the job.
-Its preview helps check a print before committing time and filament. Available printer profiles and extensions depend on your setup.
+Recommended profiles get a first print going in minutes. Intent profiles target a particular use at one click, and Custom mode opens more than 400 settings. Many printer profiles are managed by the community.
+
+Version 5.14 added several changes you notice at once:
+
+- painting support areas onto the model, to force, block or auto-generate supports
+- distinct line colors for overhangs and bridges in the layer preview
+- a tabbed layout for the settings panel
+- start and end G-code templates that understand substring matches and lists
+
+From the UltiMaker Marketplace you can download material profiles from other brands and plugins that change how prints are prepared. G-code files now record which CuraEngine plugins were active.
+
+UltiMaker develops Cura and publishes it for free under the LGPL, version 3. Mac downloads come as a DMG or a PKG installer, each in separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel. The 5.14 release moved the interface to Qt 6.10, which gave the macOS version a new top bar.

-ungoogled-chromium applies patches to Google's Chromium that remove calls to Google web services and pre-built binaries while keeping the default Chromium experience. Additional privacy and control options exist, but most must be turned on manually.
+ungoogled-chromium is Chromium with the code that talks to Google's web services taken out. The project aims to keep the default Chromium experience as close as possible, but background requests to web services are removed, and many Google domains in the source are rewritten to a non-existent `qjz9zk` domain the browser refuses to contact. Pre-built binaries are also stripped from the source tree.
-The main repository holds the shared patches and build tooling; macOS builds come from the project's ungoogled-chromium-macos repository and the official Homebrew cask. Because Google services are stripped out, some conveniences of a regular Chromium build may need extra setup. Chromium and its bundled components carry their own licenses.
+Some losses come with that. Safe Browsing is disabled, and turning off the intranet redirect detector breaks captive portal detection, though captive portals themselves still load. The project's own additions are mostly off until you switch them on:
+
+- extra `chrome://flags` entries and command-line switches
+- a "No Search" option for the address bar
+- a field for a custom search suggestions URL
+- pop-ups forced into tabs, and full URLs shown unformatted in the address bar
+
+Google Chrome offers the Chrome Web Store, Safe Browsing and an update every four weeks. ungoogled-chromium cannot install from the Web Store page. You download an extension's CRX file through a special URL or add the chromium-web-store extension, and extensions do not update on their own without it.
+
+Mac builds come from a separate ungoogled-chromium-macos repository, as DMGs for Apple silicon and Intel, or as the `ungoogled-chromium` Homebrew cask. The app installs as Chromium. The macOS maintainer notarizes the builds with a Developer ID and plans to keep doing so through October 2027. The project's patches and tooling are BSD-3-Clause.

-UnnaturalScrollWheels separates the scrolling behavior of a conventional mouse wheel from your trackpad. It also exposes settings for scroll acceleration and wheel response.
+UnnaturalScrollWheels flips the direction of a mouse's scroll wheel and leaves the trackpad alone. macOS ties the two together: turning off natural scrolling in Mouse settings turns it off for the trackpad as well. With the app running, the wheel scrolls opposite to what Mouse settings show, while trackpad gestures keep their natural direction.
-The app needs Accessibility permission to intercept and adjust scroll events. Download the disk image from the upstream releases page.
+It works by intercepting scroll events from a physical wheel, inverting them and rewriting their deltas. The same step lets it switch off scroll acceleration for the wheel and apply your own speed settings. Intercepting events needs the Accessibility permission, which macOS presents as letting the app control your computer.
+
+You can hide the menu bar icon. Opening the app again shows the settings window and brings the icon back temporarily.
+
+The release DMG itself is unsigned, but the app inside is signed with a Developer ID and notarized. It is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel and runs on macOS 10.13 or later. Homebrew installs it as the `unnaturalscrollwheels` cask.

-Upscayl provides a graphical workflow for increasing image resolution with AI models. Users choose source images, output settings, and an available upscaling model.
+Upscayl enlarges low-resolution or pixelated images on your own computer. You open a picture, or several at once in batch mode, choose a model and an output size, and Upscayl saves an enlarged copy.
-This record covers the open-source desktop application. Model licenses and any separately offered cloud service have their own terms.
+The work runs on the GPU through Real-ESRGAN and the NCNN Vulkan backend, and the desktop app needs no internet connection. Several models ship with the app, including High Fidelity; the README also credits the Remacri, Ultrasharp and Ultramix Balanced models. You can add more from the project's custom-models collection or convert your own. A GPU ID setting picks the graphics card when a machine has more than one.
+
+Upscayl needs a Vulkan-compatible GPU, and the README warns that many integrated graphics chips do not work. The macOS build requires macOS 12 or later, and version 2.15.0 is offered as one Mac DMG and one ZIP. For scripts, the same engine is available on its own as the `upscayl-ncnn` command-line tool.
+
+The desktop app and its backend are under the GNU AGPL 3.0 and free to download. Upscayl Cloud is a separate web service from the same team with its own pricing, and a Mac App Store version is sold as well.
+
+Upscaling guesses at detail, so it helps with small or blocky images. It cannot fix a photo that is out of focus or badly blurred.

-usage reads the local logs of AI coding command-line tools and shows session and weekly limits as a color-coded menu bar item, with countdowns to each reset. Antigravity figures come from Google's endpoint using the CLI's existing sign-in. It can also generate HTML reports of token use and estimated cost.
+usage puts your AI coding quota in the menu bar: how much of each limit is gone and how long until it resets. A figure turns red as it nears its limit. It covers five-hour and weekly limits for Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity and Muse Code, plus Grok CLI's weekly credit. Clicking the item opens a per-project breakdown.
-It only helps if you use at least one of the supported tools. Optional Claude Code helpers add a status line and side pane. A Windows tray build and a terminal interface are also available.

+- Smart refresh checks once a minute while usage moves and slows to every ten minutes when it stops.
+- Several Claude and Codex accounts can be added, each with an alias.
+- A badge flags announced Codex quota resets, taken from the community site codex-reset.com.
+
+Sign-in happens in your default browser, so passkeys, Google, Microsoft and enterprise SSO all work. For Claude you can paste a session key instead. Free Claude accounts have no usage data to read, and on Team and Enterprise plans an admin has to enable the member usage dashboard. The app relies on undocumented APIs, which is why it is not on the App Store.

-UTM provides a graphical way to create and run virtual machines on macOS. Depending on the guest and hardware, it uses virtualization or emulation to run other operating systems.
+Pick a guest system in UTM, point it at an installer image, and set memory, disks and devices; the virtual machine then runs in its own window.
-Guest operating systems and their licenses are obtained separately. The project offers a direct Mac download alongside an optional App Store distribution.
+On Apple silicon, ARM64 guests such as Windows 11 and Linux run through Apple's Hypervisor framework, close to the Mac's own speed. Other processors are emulated through QEMU, which is slower. That covers x86 and x64 guests on Apple silicon. It also covers ARM32, PowerPC, SPARC, MIPS and RISC-V systems, including classic Mac OS.
+
+Apple silicon Macs on macOS 12 Monterey or later can also run macOS guests through Apple's Virtualization framework. Snapshots save a machine's state to return to later. A disposable mode discards changes when the machine stops. AppleScript and the `utmctl` command-line tool create, start, stop and snapshot machines from scripts.
+
+Current releases need macOS 12 or later; the documentation names the last version for macOS 11. The GitHub download and the paid Mac App Store copy have the same features, and the store copy adds automatic updates. UTM is Apache-2.0, but it bundles GPL and LGPL parts from QEMU and other projects, which matters if you redistribute it.
+
+Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion also run other operating systems as virtual machines on a Mac.

-v2rayN is a graphical front end for proxy cores such as Xray and sing-box. It keeps a list of servers and subscription links, lets you switch between them, and handles system proxy settings, custom routing rules and proxy chains so that selected traffic goes through the chosen node.
+v2rayN is a desktop client for proxy cores. You add servers or subscription links, pick a node, and the app writes the configuration and runs the core behind it. Release packages bundle Xray, sing-box and mihomo. Other cores, among them v2fly, Hysteria 2, NaiveProxy and TUIC, can be downloaded separately and driven from the same window.
-The project publishes macOS builds for both Intel and arm64 Macs on its GitHub releases page, alongside Linux packages. Its wiki explains which release file to pick and the minimum system versions. You need your own proxy servers or subscriptions; the app does not provide any.
+Subscriptions can carry VMess, Shadowsocks, SOCKS, VLESS, Trojan, Hysteria 2, TUIC, WireGuard and AnyTLS servers, either as standard share links or in v2rayN's own link format, which also works as a backup of a profile.
+
+- On each start the app can point the macOS system proxy at the core, clear it, or leave it as other software set it.
+- Routing rules in the core decide which traffic goes through the proxy and which goes direct, for example splitting domestic from foreign destinations.
+- A subscription group can pass through a front proxy first, such as an office HTTP proxy, or leave through a landing proxy that keeps a fixed exit address.
+- Subscription updates can send custom HTTP headers.
+
+Builds exist for Intel and Apple silicon Macs and need macOS 13.6 or later. A ZIP and a DMG are offered. The DMG is not signed, so macOS calls the app damaged until you clear its extended attributes with the `xattr -cr` command given in the project wiki. Release files carry GPG signatures. The Android counterpart is a separate project, v2rayNG.

-VimR wraps Neovim in a Mac window and adds conveniences that terminal Vim lacks: a simple file browser, an Xcode-style quick-open finder, tabs, a flexible workspace layout, and live Markdown and HTML previews. Trackpad zooming and optional font ligatures round out the interface.
+VimR puts Neovim in a Mac window and adds the GUI pieces a terminal session lacks. The app ships with its own Neovim binary and runtime files.
-Your existing Neovim knowledge carries over, so it suits people who want modal editing with some GUI comfort. Signed builds are published on the GitHub releases page; the README lists macOS 13 or later.
+- A fuzzy file finder modelled on Xcode's Open Quickly.
+- A simple file browser, inside a flexible workspace modelled on JetBrains IDEs.
+- Markdown preview, plus a generic HTML preview that keeps its scroll position when it reloads.
+- Pinch to zoom and two-finger scrolling on the trackpad.
+- A command-line tool.
+
+Font ligatures are off by default; turn them on in Preferences. VimR is written in Swift, and its parts are published as reusable Swift packages. NvimView, for one, embeds Neovim in any Cocoa app.
+
+Version 0.67.0 is a tar.bz2 archive on the GitHub releases page. Inside is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and it needs macOS 14.6 or later. Homebrew carries it as the vimr cask. The developer works on it to explore Neovim and a Redux-style architecture, and takes support through GitHub Sponsors.

-VirtualBox creates and runs virtual machines, so another operating system can run in a window alongside macOS. Machines are configured with virtual disks, networking, shared folders and snapshots, and can be exported and imported in common appliance formats or controlled from the command line.
+VirtualBox runs another operating system in a window on your Mac. You create a virtual machine, give it a virtual disk and an installer image, and the guest boots alongside macOS.
-The base package is GPL version 3, with some interface headers also offered under the CDDL; the separate Extension Pack uses Oracle's own licence and is not part of this listing. Oracle publishes macOS installers for both Apple silicon and Intel hosts.
+Which guests run depends on the chip. On an Intel Mac, VirtualBox runs x86 systems such as Windows, Linux and Solaris. On Apple silicon it runs a selection of Arm guests, including Arm builds of Linux.
+
+- Snapshots save a machine's state, and you can branch from any of them into a tree.
+- Guest Additions, installed inside the guest, add shared folders, a shared clipboard, drag and drop and automatic screen resizing.
+- Machines import and export as OVF appliances, including ones made in other virtualization software.
+- The `VBoxManage` command reads and changes machine settings from the terminal.
+
+Oracle publishes separate installers for Intel Macs and Apple silicon Macs, each a DMG holding a PKG. Version 7.2 lists macOS 13 Ventura through 26 Tahoe as supported hosts. The base package is GPL-3.0, and some interface headers are also offered under the CDDL. The Extension Pack is a separate download under Oracle's Personal Use and Educational License, not the GPL.
+
+Parallels Desktop also runs Windows and Linux on a Mac, and Microsoft authorizes it for Windows 11 on Apple silicon. Its maker lists yearly plans and a free trial. VirtualBox's base package costs nothing and its source is public.

-VLC handles many common audio and video formats in one application. It also includes playback controls for subtitles, audio tracks and network streams.
+VLC plays local video and audio files, discs, webcams, capture devices and network streams. Its own built-in codecs decode the media, so you never install a codec pack.
-Use the official VideoLAN download page to choose the correct Mac build. The project spans several platforms, with platform-specific interfaces and features.
+- Containers such as MKV, MP4, MOV, AVI, WMV, FLV, MXF and MPEG transport streams, plus audio formats including FLAC, AAC, WAV and AC3.
+- Subtitle files in SubRip, SubViewer, SSA, SAMI, VobSub and other formats, with synchronisation to fix their timing.
+- Video and audio filters applied during playback.
+- DVD and audio CD playback alongside streaming protocols.
+
+VideoLAN describes the player as completely free, with no spyware, no ads and no user tracking.
+
+There are separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, plus a Universal build that runs on both. The minimum is Mac OS X 10.7.5, on any Mac with a 64-bit Intel processor or an Apple silicon chip. PowerPC and 32-bit Intel Macs need older releases. VideoLAN signs the Universal disk image with its Developer ID, and Apple notarizes it.
+
+VLC is released under the GPLv2 or later, which in practice becomes GPLv3 on some platforms because of its dependencies. The libVLC engine is LGPLv2 or later, so other applications can embed it.
+
+PotPlayer also plays video files with subtitles. Its official site, though, offers it only for Windows.

-VNote combines note organization with a Markdown editing environment. Its notebook structure, search, and navigation tools are aimed at maintaining a substantial collection of written material.
+VNote is a note-taking app built on notebooks of local files. You sort notes into notebooks and folders, tag them, and find them again with the search panel. Because notebooks are ordinary files, you can back them up and move them with the tools you already use.
-The app is useful for technical notes and documentation that benefit from keyboard-driven editing and local storage.
+The documentation singles out Markdown as the format VNote suits best. You write and preview in one editor that handles math and diagrams, and it can hide formatting markers while you type. Other formats sit next to your Markdown notes:
+
+- Typst documents have their own editor with a live PDF preview.
+- Mind maps are drawn in a built-in editor, and a Markdown note's headings can be shown as a mind map and rearranged from there.
+- Plain text, logs, source code and configuration files open in the same window.
+- PDFs open in a built-in viewer.
+
+Snippets, templates, a Vi mode, encrypted notes, export to other formats and custom keyboard shortcuts round out the editor. On macOS, VNote adds a Create Note in VNote entry to the Services menu, so text selected in another app can become a note. The documentation says there is no account to create.
+
+VNote is written in C++ with Qt. Each release has a universal DMG for macOS 13 or later and a separate package for macOS 12.1. On first launch macOS may warn that the app comes from an unidentified developer; the documentation says to right-click it and choose Open.

-The source is GPL-3.0, while the official signed download starts with a trial and asks for a purchased license to keep using it. The repository's license file is an abbreviated GPLv3 notice that points to the full text. The project lists macOS 15 or later.

-Vorssaint gathers many small Mac utilities behind one menu bar icon: per-app volume and output routing, a system monitor with fan control, an app switcher, window snapping, Dock previews, clipboard history, text snippets, mouse and scrolling tweaks, and a file shelf, among others.
+Vorssaint puts a long list of small Mac utilities behind one menu bar icon, and you pick which ones to install. Start from a preset or choose features one by one. A removed feature stops loading and vanishes from the interface, and reinstalling it brings its settings back.
-Each feature can be installed or removed on its own, and setup asks only for the permissions the chosen features need. With this many components, it is worth enabling only what you will use rather than replacing several dedicated apps at once.
+- Sound: a per-app volume mixer that can push quiet apps past 100%, per-app output routing and a microphone mute shortcut.
+- System: CPU, GPU, memory, temperature and battery readings with history graphs, menu bar readouts and fan control, which is still in beta.
+- Windows: an app switcher with live previews, window snapping by shortcut or screen edge, and Dock previews across desktops.
+- Input: text snippets, smooth or linear scrolling, side-button support and a filter for accidental rapid clicks from a worn mouse.
+- Files and apps: clipboard history, a drag shelf for files and links, an uninstaller, a cache cleaner and a Homebrew manager.
+
+Setup asks only for the permissions your chosen features use. The permissions page shows which feature needs each one and flags any grant nothing uses anymore. The developer says there is no account, analytics or tracking, and that the network is used only for visible actions such as update checks, the speed test and share links.
+
+CleanShot X covers screenshots, annotation and screen recording as a standalone app. Vorssaint's capture module handles scrolling screenshots, text recognition, redaction and recordings with automatic zooms, next to everything else in the same panel.
+
+Vorssaint needs an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 14 Sonoma or later. The DMG holds an arm64-only app, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The source is GPL 3.0 or later, while the name and icon are trademarks, so forks have to rebrand.

-VPN Bypass manages routes for split tunnelling when a VPN client sends everything through its tunnel. You pick services or domains to skip the VPN, or switch to a mode where only listed destinations use it; a custom mode can send each rule direct, through a specific VPN, a proxy or a Tailscale peer.
+VPN Bypass decides, from the menu bar, which traffic goes through your VPN. Corporate VPN clients often send everything through the tunnel and lock their own split-tunnelling settings, so streaming stalls, AirPlay breaks and personal traffic crosses the company network. You pick the services or domains that should skip the tunnel, and the app adds the routes, restores them after every reconnect or network change, and re-resolves domains as their addresses move.
-Routes are reapplied when the VPN reconnects or the network changes, and domains are re-resolved as their addresses rotate. A command-line tool is included. Check your employer's policy before bypassing a corporate VPN.
+- Three modes: Bypass sends listed destinations around the VPN, VPN Only sends just those through it, and Custom applies rules in order, each exiting direct, through a chosen VPN, an HTTP or SOCKS5 proxy, or a Tailscale peer.
+- A catalogue of 75 services, including government sites and main banks for six countries. You can also add your own domains, wildcards and subnets.
+- An optional Lookups view, off by default, lists the names your Mac resolves, most frequent first, and adds one with a click.
+- The `vpnb` command-line tool and Shortcuts actions reach the same settings, so a Focus or a Wi-Fi network can switch the mode.
+
+It recognises clients including GlobalProtect, Cisco AnyConnect, WireGuard, FortiClient, Zscaler, Cloudflare WARP and Proton VPN, and tells you when a VPN's kill switch leaves the routes without effect. A small root helper, installed after one administrator prompt, does the routing. Optional per-app routing needs a Network Extension, which you approve in macOS when you turn it on; everything else runs without a kernel or system extension.
+
+VPN Bypass needs macOS 13 or later. The 6.1.0 DMG is a Universal build for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized.

-VSCodium packages the open-source VS Code codebase into independently built desktop releases. It provides a familiar editor with project navigation, a terminal, and extension support.
+VSCodium gives you the Visual Studio Code editor built straight from Microsoft's open-source repository. You edit, navigate and debug code in it and add extensions, as in VS Code itself.
-Extension availability and service integrations can differ from Microsoft's distribution. Choose the macOS build for your processor from the release downloads.
+The project is a set of build scripts. They clone Microsoft's `vscode` repository, build it every day a new upstream release appears, and publish the results on GitHub. Microsoft adds its own product configuration to its builds, covering telemetry, the extension gallery and branding, and ships them under a proprietary license. VSCodium leaves that configuration out. Its binaries are MIT-licensed, and the project says telemetry is turned off.
+
+Extensions are the main practical change. The Visual Studio Marketplace terms limit its extensions to Microsoft's products, so VSCodium installs from Open VSX instead. Some extensions, including certain Microsoft debugging tools, carry licenses that only allow the official builds, and they do not run here. The documentation lists the known cases, with workarounds where they exist, and explains how to point the editor at another gallery.

+VSCodium needs macOS 12 or later. Releases include separate DMG and ZIP builds for Apple silicon and Intel; the Apple silicon build is Developer ID-signed and notarized. It is also available through Homebrew with `brew install --cask vscodium`.
+
+Visual Studio Code is the same editor with Microsoft's marketplace, branding and telemetry included. Moving across means reinstalling extensions from Open VSX and checking any that refuse to run.

-WailBrew lets you manage Homebrew without the terminal. It lists installed formulae and casks, shows which are outdated, searches for new packages and installs, upgrades or removes them, and also covers taps and background services.
+WailBrew runs Homebrew from a window. You search for a formula or cask, install, upgrade or uninstall it, and select several packages to act on them at once.
-It is built with Wails, Go and React and positions itself as a maintained alternative to the older Cakebrew. Install it with the official Homebrew cask or from GitHub releases.
+- Package pages list dependencies and dependents, and a Leaves view shows what nothing else depends on.
+- Update checks run in the background and put a badge on the Dock icon when upgrades are waiting.
+- Taps can be added, removed and trusted, and Homebrew services started, stopped or restarted.
+- Maintenance covers `brew doctor`, a cleanup with a dry-run preview first, and exporting a Brewfile.
+
+A command palette and keyboard shortcuts are built in. Every command the app runs is logged, so you can see exactly what it asked Homebrew to do. For restricted networks there are proxy and mirror settings, and you can point the app at a custom `brew` path or turn off quarantine for casks.
+
+WailBrew is built with Wails, Go and React. It needs Homebrew already installed. The release build declares macOS 10.13 as its minimum, while the developer tests mainly on recent versions. The download from the Homebrew cask or GitHub is a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized, and the code is under the MIT license.
+
+Settings and Brewfile snapshots can move to a folder you choose, such as `~/.config/wailbrew`. The interface comes in 12 languages and follows the system's light or dark appearance.

-Wallnetic sets a video as the desktop background. It ships no wallpaper library of its own: you drag in an MP4, MOV, M4V, WebM or GIF file, or find clips on one of the wallpaper sites it can browse from inside the app, and each display can play something different.
+Wallnetic plays a video file as your desktop background. It carries no large catalogue of its own: you drag in an MP4, MOV, M4V, WebM or GIF, or open its built-in browser to search sites such as Pexels, Pixabay and Wallhaven and pull clips into the library.
-The app needs macOS 13 or later, has no account, subscription or analytics, and is available both from GitHub releases and the Mac App Store. It does not run Wallpaper Engine scene files, only ordinary video.
+- Each display can play a different video, or all of them can share one.
+- Trim loops a chosen part of a clip without changing or re-encoding the original.
+- Brightness, blur, tint and other effects come with eight presets, and an optional clock and date can sit on the wallpaper.
+- A daily schedule and playlists rotate wallpapers, and on macOS 14 or later Shortcuts actions can switch or pause them.
+
+Decoding pauses on a locked Mac, a sleeping display or Low Power Mode, and by default whenever a fullscreen app has the front. Normal windows stacked over the desktop leave the video running. There is no live playback on the lock screen; Wallnetic can instead set a still frame from the current video as the system wallpaper.
+
+The developer says the app needs no account, has no subscription or paid tier and collects no analytics. It runs on macOS 13 or later and is also on the Mac App Store. The GitHub release has separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so macOS refuses the first launch until you allow it in Privacy & Security.
+
+Wallpaper Engine is a Windows app whose editor turns still images into animated scenes, and its Steam Workshop holds hundreds of thousands of shared wallpapers. Wallnetic cannot render those scenes. It plays ordinary video, so a Workshop item works only when it is a plain video file saved on your Mac.

-Waterfox builds on the Mozilla browser platform and provides an independent desktop distribution. It offers a familiar browsing environment with support for browser extensions.
+Open sites and Firefox WebExtensions in Waterfox, which runs on the same Gecko engine as Firefox. The changes are in what ships around the engine: browser telemetry is removed, and several privacy and layout features are built in.
-Compatibility and defaults can differ from Firefox. The official download page supplies the macOS application.
+- An ad blocker is on by default and stops adverts, trackers, pop-ups and overlays before they load. Filter lists and per-site exceptions are adjustable, and partner ads in search can be turned off.
+- Private tabs sit next to regular ones in the same window. Their site data is cleared when you close the last private tab.
+- DNS lookups are encrypted and sent through an Oblivious HTTP relay. The relay sees who asked but not the query, and the resolver sees the query but not who asked.
+- Tree tabs nest each page under the one that opened it, and a whole branch can be collapsed or dragged at once.
+- A status bar at the bottom shows the full address of a hovered link and the loading progress.
+
+You can also switch between browser styles, colour palettes and horizontal or vertical tabs. Bookmarks and other data can be imported from another browser, although Chrome-only extensions do not transfer automatically. Security fixes from Mozilla arrive in regular updates on the Firefox ESR model.
+
+Waterfox needs no account. BrowserWorks Ltd, owned by founder Alex Kontos, develops it and funds it through search partnerships, donations and an optional private search subscription. The developer says it collects no personal data. The macOS download is a Universal disk image for Apple silicon and Intel and requires macOS 10.15 or later.
+
+Vivaldi also blocks ads and trackers and lets you customise its interface, and it adds a built-in mail client and calendar. Waterfox stays a browser on the Firefox engine.

-Wave Terminal arranges terminals, editors, file previews, web pages and AI chat as blocks in a drag-and-drop layout. SSH connections are a focus: remote sessions reconnect after interruptions, and remote files can be previewed or edited in a built-in editor.
+Wave Terminal lays out shells, editors, file previews, web pages and an AI chat as blocks in one window. You drag blocks to arrange them and expand any one to full screen, then drop back to the tiled view.
-The AI assistant works with your own keys for OpenAI, Anthropic or Google models, or with local models through Ollama and LM Studio, and no account is required. Separate Apple silicon and Intel builds are provided.

+
+- The `wsh` command manages the workspace from the shell and copies files between local and remote hosts.

-WebTorrent Desktop opens torrent files and magnet links and starts playing media almost immediately, fetching the pieces needed for playback first. Besides ordinary BitTorrent peers it can connect to WebTorrent peers running in web browsers, and it supports AirPlay, Chromecast and DLNA for playing on other screens.
+WebTorrent Desktop plays a torrent while it downloads. Open a magnet link or a .torrent file, or drop one on the window, and video or audio plays right away instead of after the download finishes. Seeking works before the file is complete, because the app changes which pieces it fetches next.
-The repository still receives commits, but the latest packaged release, 0.24.0, dates from August 2020. It is an Electron app available from the official website, GitHub releases and the `webtorrent` Homebrew cask.
+- Peers come from trackers, the DHT and peer exchange.
+- The WebTorrent protocol adds WebRTC peers, meaning web pages that share the same torrent.
+- Dragging files onto the window creates a new torrent.
+- Playback can go to AirPlay, Chromecast and DLNA devices.
+
+The developers say the app sends basic usage statistics, such as how often the play button succeeds, but no personal information and no record of which torrents you add.
+
+The project's own site still calls it beta. The latest release, 0.24.0, dates from August 2020. Its Mac build is an Electron app for Intel processors, signed with a Developer ID and notarized, and it asks for macOS 10.10 or later. It comes from the official website, the GitHub releases page or the webtorrent Homebrew cask.
+
+µTorrent joins the same BitTorrent swarms, and its Web edition also plays files while they download. Where WebTorrent Desktop differs is in reaching browser peers over WebRTC, and its source code is published under the MIT license.

-WezTerm combines terminal emulation with tabs, split panes, and multiplexing. It is useful for keeping several local or remote terminal sessions organized.
+WezTerm runs your shells in tabs, split panes and windows, and it can attach those tabs to a multiplexer server running on another host. Press Command-T for a new tab and Ctrl-Shift-Alt-% to split the current pane side by side.
-Settings live in Lua, allowing configuration to go beyond static preferences. The Mac app is distributed as a downloadable archive.
+Configuration is a Lua file, `.wezterm.lua` in your home folder. Fonts, font size and the color scheme are set in ordinary Lua, and the terminal reloads the file when you save it.
+
+- Multiplexing works on local domains, and on remote hosts over SSH or TLS, with the remote tabs attached to the local window so mouse, clipboard and scrollback work as usual.
+- A built-in SSH client opens remote shells in their own tabs.
+- Fonts get ligatures, color emoji, fallback fonts and true color.
+- Images display through the iTerm2 protocol, Kitty graphics and experimental Sixel support, with an `imgcat` command included.
+- Scrollback is searchable with Ctrl-Shift-F.
+- Serial ports can be opened directly for embedded and Arduino work.
+
+The same app and the same Lua file also work on Linux, Windows, FreeBSD and NetBSD.
+
+On the Mac it ships as a ZIP holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, signed with a Developer ID and notarized. The project builds on Big Sur and expects it to run back to Mojave. To use the `wezterm` command line tool, add the app's `Contents/MacOS` folder to your PATH. The latest stable release dates from February 2024, and nightly builds are offered next to it, also through Homebrew as `wezterm@nightly`.

-WhatsYourSign adds a Finder menu action for viewing cryptographic signing information. It makes it easier to inspect an application or executable without assembling terminal commands.
+WhatsYourSign adds a Code Signing Info item to the menu you get when you right-click or Control-click a file in Finder. Choose it and a window shows who signed the file, or that nobody did.
-A valid signature identifies signing information; it does not by itself establish that software is trustworthy. The upstream product page explains the fields shown.
+A lock icon sums up the result. Green means Apple signed the item, black means it carries another valid signature such as a Developer ID or Mac App Store one, and red means it is unsigned or its certificate has been revoked. Revoked certificates almost always point to malware, and ad-hoc signed or unsigned items deserve caution.
+
+- View Hashes shows the MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-256 hashes, plus the CDHash where there is one. For an app bundle they cover the main executable.
+- View Entitlements lists the entitlements an item declares.
+- The window also reports whether an item is notarized.
+- An option set during installation extends the menu item to external drives and mounted disk images. It is off by default because Finder can then show the WhatsYourSign icon on those volumes.
+
+A signature identifies who made a file and helps you judge whether to trust it. While checking, macOS may contact Apple's servers to see whether a certificate or notarization ticket was revoked. If the menu item goes missing, turn the WhatsYourSign extension off and on again under Login Items & Extensions in System Settings.
+
+WhatsYourSign needs macOS 10.15 or later. The 3.2.2 ZIP holds a Universal installer for Apple silicon and Intel, Developer ID-signed and notarized. Run the installer again to uninstall.

-Whisky manages Wine prefixes, called bottles, through a Mac-style interface so Windows installers, launchers and games can run without command-line setup. Graphics translation layers, launcher compatibility settings and diagnostic reports are built in.
+Whisky runs Windows installers, launchers and games on an Apple silicon Mac through Wine. You create a bottle in one click, run an installer or .exe inside it, and start what it installed from a library showing the games and pinned programs of all your bottles.
-This entry follows the active community fork by frankea, which continued development after the original whisky-app/whisky repository was archived in April 2025; it is not affiliated with the original project. Upstream lists Apple silicon as required, and compatibility varies widely from title to title.
+- Wine 11.0 comes with DXMT, which translates DirectX 11 to Metal, and DXVK over MoltenVK as the fallback.
+- Built-in launcher support covers Steam, Epic, the EA App, Rockstar and Battle.net.
+- More than 80 curated per-game configurations can be browsed inside the app.
+- One-click diagnostic reports help trace crashes and freezes, and a controller compatibility mode addresses gamepad detection and mapping.
+
+On first launch Whisky downloads the Wine runtime, about 330 MB, and sets up a default bottle. Version 3.7.0 added whisky:// links and a Dock menu that start a pinned game from outside the window. Telemetry stays off unless you tick a box during setup, and the README lists the five setup events it sends once enabled.
+
+The original whisky-app/whisky project was archived on April 9, 2025. Development continues in this community fork maintained by frankea, which is not affiliated with the original. Its File menu imports bottles the original app left behind, referencing them in place so the old app keeps working. The plain Homebrew cask named whisky still installs the archived original, while the fork's cask is frankea/whisky/whisky.
+
+The fork requires macOS 15 or later on Apple silicon. Its GitHub release is a DMG holding an Apple silicon app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and later versions arrive through Sparkle inside the app.

-Widelands is a real-time strategy game in the tradition of The Settlers II, where the focus is on building up a working economy: roads, carriers, production chains and the settlements they feed. Several tribes play differently, and there are single-player campaigns, scenarios, free play against AI opponents and an online multiplayer lobby.
+Widelands hands you a clan that starts with nothing but a headquarters, and you grow it into a settlement by placing buildings and laying roads. Carriers walk every good along those roads from one building to the next, so the road layout decides how well wood, food, iron and gold move through the economy. You never steer single workers. You order a building and the builders come, or order an attack and soldiers march.
-A map editor ships with the game. The code is GPL v2 or later, while some art and sound assets carry their own Creative Commons licences. Official releases include macOS disk images for Apple silicon and Intel.
+The game was inspired by The Settlers II. Its five tribes, Barbarians, Empire, Atlanteans, Frisians and Amazons, each run a different economy, and each has a tutorial campaign that teaches how it differs. Beyond the campaigns you can play against computer opponents, or with friends over the Internet or a LAN.
+
+- Tutorials in the main menu walk you through the first steps.
+- A map editor is included and can publish a single map online from its main menu.
+- An add-on manager, added in version 1.1, installs community maps, campaigns, tribes, win conditions and interface themes.
+- Naval warfare is available as an experimental feature.
+
+Version 1.3.1, released on 22 February 2026, comes as separate disk images for Intel and Apple silicon Macs on macOS 12 or later, and it cannot share a network game with 1.3. A browser download of the Apple silicon image picks up a quarantine flag, so the project suggests fetching it with curl or clearing the flag with xattr. MacPorts also carries the game. The code is GPL v2 or later, and some assets use Creative Commons licenses.

-Window Glue joins two windows so they behave largely as one. With glue mode switched on from the menu bar or a shortcut, dragging a window next to another shows where it will snap, and the pair then follows each other until you shake one free.
+Window Glue attaches one window to another so you can handle the two as a single unit. Switch on glue mode from its menu bar icon or with F9, then drag a window toward a second one. A glow marks where it will snap. Once attached, the pair moves together, and the border between them behaves like a split view divider.
-It needs Accessibility permission to watch and move windows and works locally. The project lists known limits: the second window lags slightly while dragging, and a pair does not yet follow a window moved to another display or Space.
+To separate them, shake a window quickly, or press Shift-F9 to unglue the active window. Hiding a glued window with Command-H unglues it as well. Settings let you change both shortcuts, adjust the snap tolerance and have the app open at startup. The interface is available in 13 languages, including Ukrainian, Japanese and Polish.
+
+The app uses the Accessibility permission to watch and reposition other apps' windows, and the setup steps ask you to quit and reopen it after granting that permission. The developer says no data is collected or transmitted.
+
+The project lists two known issues. The second window lags slightly behind while you drag the first. When one window moves to another display or Space, its partner does not follow, and the two stick again once you drag the other window over too.
+
+The release is a DMG holding a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, and it needs macOS 13 Ventura or later. The app inside is signed with a Developer ID and notarized, while the disk image itself is signed but not notarized.

-Wire is an end-to-end encrypted messenger for text chats, voice and video calls, and file sharing, used by individuals as well as teams. This repository holds the Electron-based desktop client, and the same account also works on phones and in the browser.
+Wire carries your end-to-end encrypted chats, voice and video calls and shared files, and this app brings those conversations into a Mac window. It is an Electron wrapper around Wire's web app, and you sign in with a Wire account. Personal accounts cover private use, and the free team plan takes up to five people. Paid plans add larger video conferences, single sign-on and admin controls.
-Wire distributes the macOS app through its download page and the Mac App Store, and installer packages appear on the project's GitHub releases. The code is GPL-3.0, but Wire Swiss GmbH reserves its name and logos, and its README sets extra conditions under Wire's terms of use for self-built clients that connect to Wire's servers.
+- You can create groups, search conversations, add reactions, draw sketches and send recorded audio or video messages.
+- A timer on a message deletes it from the conversation when it runs out, in one-to-one and group chats, and works for texts, pictures, documents and pings.
+- In a conference call you can share your screen, and a group admin can right-click a participant to mute them or mute everyone else.
+- Up to three accounts stay signed in at once, and you switch between them with the profile pictures in the left sidebar.
+
+On a Mac, single sign-on opens in your default browser through Apple's web authentication session, with Safari as the fallback. Companies that manage Macs with MDM can set a managed preference that forces App-lock on.
+
+Wire Swiss GmbH ships the Mac app through the Mac App Store, and some macOS releases on GitHub also carry a Wire.pkg installer. The source files are licensed under GPL version 3 or later. The company keeps the Wire name and logos, though, and its README attaches conditions to self-built clients that talk to Wire's servers, such as not weakening their security features.

-WireGuard for macOS is the project's own client for the WireGuard VPN protocol. Tunnels are created by hand or imported from configuration files, edited in a text view with syntax colouring, and switched on or off from a menu bar item. Per-tunnel on-demand rules can bring a connection up automatically depending on the Wi-Fi network or wired connection in use.
+WireGuard for macOS connects your Mac to WireGuard peers through tunnels you define. You import a tunnel from a .conf file or a zip archive of several, or add an empty tunnel and type the configuration yourself. The editor colours sections, keys and addresses, and it names any invalid line when you try to save.
-The source for the iOS and macOS apps lives in a shared repository on the project's own Git server (a GitHub copy is a mirror), and the official build is distributed through the Mac App Store.
+The menu bar icon shows the active tunnel's status and the networks it routes. Clicking a tunnel in that menu turns it on or off, or toggles its on-demand rules if it has any. The icon stays after you close the tunnel manager window. A tunnel also stays up after you quit the app, until you turn it off in WireGuard or in the Network settings.
+
+On-demand rules bring a tunnel up by themselves on Wi-Fi, on Ethernet or on both. A Wi-Fi rule can apply to any network, only to the SSIDs you list, or to every network except them.
+
+- You can export all tunnels to a zip archive, and view the log or save it to a file.
+- Viewing or exporting private keys asks you to authenticate first, unless the Mac has no password set.
+- Each tunnel's configuration lives in the keychain, and a tunnel created by another user on the Mac can be viewed, edited or turned on only by that user.
+- When the App Store wants to update the app, WireGuard asks you to turn off on-demand for the active tunnel and deactivate it first.
+
+The app comes only from the Mac App Store and needs macOS 12 or later. Its source sits on the project's own Git server, shared with the iOS app and the WireGuardKit package for developers. Version 1.0.16 from February 2023 is the latest release.

-Wireshark provides detailed views of network packets and the protocols they contain. It is useful for diagnosing application traffic and understanding network behavior.
+Wireshark records packets from a network interface, or opens a capture file, and splits every packet into its protocol layers so you can read each field. Select a packet to see its decoded protocol details.
-The official site distributes a macOS disk image. Capturing traffic may require additional system permissions or the capture components supplied with the installer.
+- Filters narrow a capture to the packets you care about, coloring rules are built from filters, and search covers many criteria too.
+- Files from tcpdump and many other capture tools open directly, including GZIP, LZ4 and ZSTD-compressed ones.
+- Hex dumps saved as text can be imported as packets.
+- Captures export to several file formats used by other programs, in whole or in part.
+- Statistics tools summarize what a capture contains.
+
+Wireshark only observes. It sends no packets of its own apart from name lookups, which you can turn off, and it raises no alarms the way an intrusion detection system would.
+
+Live capture on a Mac needs the ChmodBPF launch daemon. Run Install ChmodBPF.pkg from the disk image, or open it later through About Wireshark under Folders. The same image has packages that add TShark and other command-line tools to your path. The current 4.6 release is a Universal app for macOS 12 and later, signed by the Wireshark Foundation and notarized, and it updates itself.

-WWDC collects Apple's conference keynotes, session videos and other developer video content into one Mac app. It tracks what you have watched, lets you favorite sessions, and shows searchable transcripts that jump to the matching point in a video.
+WWDC puts Apple's developer conference on your Mac: the keynote and the Platforms State of the Union as live streams, every session video as it comes out during the week, and the archive from earlier years. You browse, watch and mark what you have seen, then come back to the sessions you saved for later.
-Bookmarks with notes, playback speed controls, picture in picture and optional iCloud sync make it useful for working through a backlog of sessions. It is an independent project, not an Apple product. The most recent GitHub release at review time was 7.5 from June 2024.
+- Explore lists new content, unfinished videos, recent favorites and anything streaming live.
+- Schedule shows each day of the current conference and plays its live streams.
+- Transcripts are searchable, come in several languages, and jump the video to the matching line.
+- Bookmarks mark a moment in a video with a note, and search covers those notes too.
+- Playback runs from 0.5x to 2x or a custom speed, in full screen or picture in picture.
+
+Clip Sharing exports a segment of up to five minutes from a session. Shared session links point to Apple's developer website and open in the app on a Mac that has it installed.
+
+With iCloud sync turned on, favorites, bookmarks and viewing progress follow you across your Macs. Builds you compile yourself have CloudKit features switched off.
+
+The app is an independent project and not made by Apple. Version 7.5 from June 2024 is the latest release, while the repository still gets commits. It requires macOS 12 or later and ships as a Universal app for Apple silicon and Intel, notarized.

-xbar reads output from scripts and presents it as menu bar content. Its plugin browser helps you find existing integrations, while local scripts let you build small tools for your own setup.
+xbar runs scripts you choose and turns whatever they print into menu bar items. A script in any language that prints one line puts that line in the menu bar, and lines after a `---` separator appear in its dropdown menu.
-Plugins live in a folder on your Mac and can be managed through the app. Review a plugin's source and requirements before installing it.
+The schedule lives in the file name: `date.1m.sh` reruns every minute, and `10s`, `2h` or `1d` work the same way. Plugins sit in `~/Library/Application Support/xbar/plugins`. From the Plugins window you can browse hundreds of shared plugins, from network details to battery levels, and install them into that folder.
+
+Parameters after a `|` on any output line control the item:
+
+- `href=` opens a URL, and `shell=` runs a command with arguments.
+- `color=`, `font=` and `size=` change how the text looks.
+- `key=` adds a keyboard shortcut.
+- `refresh=true` reruns the plugin after a click.
+- `templateImage=` sets a base64-encoded icon in black and transparent pixels.
+
+xbar is a rewrite of BitBar in Go, built with Wails. BitBar users move their old plugins into the new folder to keep them. The current download, 2.1.7-beta from October 2021, is a Universal app that is Developer ID-signed and notarized. Its app bundle declares macOS 10.13 as the minimum, while the README asks for 10.15 Catalina or newer. It is open source under the MIT license.

+Xcodes lists every Xcode release, downloads the one you pick, installs it and lets you make any installed version active with one click. The list comes from Xcode Releases or the Apple Developer website, and each entry shows release notes, supported macOS versions, SDKs and compilers.
-Downloading Xcode requires an Apple ID. The project, now maintained under XcodesOrg, publishes signed and notarized builds on GitHub and through Homebrew, and has a separate command-line tool for scripted use.
+Downloading needs an Apple ID, and sign-in works with security keys and password manager autofill. Xcodes downloads through aria2 with up to 16 connections and resumes an install after a network error. An optional experiment unpacks the XIP archive with unxip, which can be up to 70 percent faster but may use a lot of memory.
+
+- Platforms and runtimes for iOS, watchOS, tvOS and visionOS install from the same window.
+- Since Xcode 26 you can choose the Apple silicon or Universal variant of Xcode and of each runtime.
+- The interface is translated into 20 languages besides English.
+- The app updates itself from its own menu.
+
+Runtimes from iOS 18, tvOS 18, watchOS 11 and visionOS 2 onward need Xcode 16.1 beta 3 or newer to be active. Installing the Apple silicon runtime variant needs Xcode 26 active.
+
+Version 4.1.1 requires macOS 14.6 or later. The release ZIP holds a Universal app, Developer ID-signed and notarized, and it does not need Xcode installed first. The project, first released under a Robots and Pencils copyright, now lives under XcodesOrg alongside the `xcodes` command-line tool for scripted installs.

-Xit is a graphical Git client that started as a rewrite of GitX. A sidebar lists branches, remotes, tags, submodules and stashes; the history view draws the commit graph and can be searched by author, message or hash; and file lists show diffs, blame with colour-coded change groups, plain text or Quick Look previews for both the working tree and past commits.
+Xit opens a Git repository in a window where you read its history, look at what changed and commit. The history list draws the graph of commits and branches. You can search it by author, message or hash, and step back and forward through the commits you have selected.
-The author still describes it as beta software working toward a 1.0 milestone, and every GitHub release is marked as a pre-release. The latest, 1.0b18 from April 2026, requires macOS 26.
+For the working tree and for any past commit, the file list shows just the changed files or, in outline view, the full folder tree. A selected file appears as a diff, as plain text, in Quick Look or as blame. The blame view colours lines that changed together and links each one back to its commit.
+
+- The sidebar lists branches, remotes, tags, submodules and stashes.
+- The staging view keeps workspace and staged files in separate lists, with an option to amend the last commit.
+- Toolbar buttons fetch, push and pull, with menus for picking a particular remote or branch.
+- Commands clone repositories, reset, and delete untracked or ignored files, and a toolbar Stash button holds the stash commands.
+- Signed commits and tags are marked with an icon, which shows only that a signature exists, without verifying it.
+
+Xit began as a rewrite of GitX and is still in beta, and its releases are published as pre-releases. Fork, a paid Git client, already offers visual interactive rebase and a merge-conflict resolver. Xit's README lists interactive rebase and better handling of merge conflicts among its ideas for later.
+
+The 1.0b18 ZIP from April 2026 holds an Apple silicon build that needs macOS 26, signed ad hoc rather than with a Developer ID. The code is under the Apache 2.0 license.

-Xournal++ offers a page-based canvas for handwriting, drawing, and typed text. Imported PDFs can become the background for annotations and study notes.
+Xournal++ gives you pages to write and draw on with a pen tablet or mouse, and it can load a PDF as the background so you annotate on top of it. Pressure-sensitive styluses from makers such as Wacom, Huion and XP-Pen work, and stylus or mouse buttons can be mapped to different tools and colours.
-It is especially useful with a pen tablet, while mouse and keyboard input remain available for editing and arranging pages.
+On a PDF background you can select its text to copy, highlight, underline or strike it through, and follow its links. Blank pages take paper backgrounds for notes, scratch work or a whiteboard. The finished file exports to PDF, PNG or SVG from the window or from the command line.
+
+- Pen, highlighter and eraser tools, with solid, dotted and other stroke styles
+- Lines, arrows, circles, rectangles and splines, plus set-square and compass guides
+- Layers you can hide or edit one at a time, and a sidebar of page previews for reordering pages
+- A LaTeX editor for equations and formulas, which needs a LaTeX installation on the Mac
+- Audio recorded while you write, attached to objects in the note and played back with the Play Object tool
+- Plugins written in Lua
+
+Xournal++ rewrites the older Xournal program and reuses parts of its code, including the stroke recognizer. It also runs on Linux and Windows. PDF-XChange Editor, by contrast, lists Windows 10 and later as its only supported systems, so on a Mac you need something else to write, draw and highlight over PDF pages.
+
+The 1.3.8 release has separate disk images for Apple silicon and Intel, each requiring macOS 10.15 or later. Both apps carry only an ad hoc signature, and the README says macOS refuses to run them. It gives two Terminal commands that strip the app's extended attributes and re-sign it locally.

-Yaak provides a focused workspace for API development. Requests, environments, and response views help make repeated service checks easier to manage.
+From one desktop window, Yaak sends REST and GraphQL calls, gRPC requests, WebSocket messages and Server-Sent Events subscriptions, and keeps them in workspaces with nested folders so you can rerun them later. Responses can be filtered with JSONPath or XPath.
-The project publishes its application source and macOS downloads. Optional paid offerings or hosted features should be checked separately on the official site.
+- Collections import from Postman, Insomnia, OpenAPI, Swagger or a curl command.
+- Environment variables switch the same requests between dev, staging and production.
+- Authentication covers OAuth 2.0, JWT and Basic Auth, and plugins can add more schemes.
+- Template tags insert values such as UUIDs and timestamps, and secrets can live encrypted or in the system keychain.
+
+A workspace can be mirrored to a folder on disk, which lets you keep it in Git or sync it with Dropbox. Plugins can also extend template tags and the interface, and the app ships with themes you can replace with your own.
+
+The download page describes Yaak as local-first: it works offline and needs no account. The developer says it has no telemetry. Postman does the same basic job of sending HTTP requests and inspecting the responses. Yaak stores its workspaces on the Mac, in files you can put under version control.
+
+The source is MIT-licensed. The prebuilt app is free for personal use, while use at work needs a paid license. Separate DMGs exist for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon app requires macOS 13 or later and is notarized.

-yabai extends the macOS window manager with automatic tiling: new windows are arranged by binary space partitioning so they fill the screen without overlapping. It can also manage spaces and displays, follow focus with the mouse, and float windows by rule.
+yabai tiles your windows as you open them, splitting the screen by binary space partitioning so nothing overlaps. It works alongside the window manager built into macOS rather than replacing it. You drive it with `yabai -m` commands in Terminal and bind the ones you use to keys with skhd or other hotkey software.
-There is no graphical interface. yabai runs in the background, is configured with a script, and is driven by its command-line messages, usually bound to keys through skhd or a similar tool. Some advanced features need System Integrity Protection to be partially disabled, which the project documents as optional.
+There is no settings window. Configuration is a shell script called yabairc, kept in your home folder or under `~/.config/yabai`, which yabai runs when it starts.
+
+- Each space can use the bsp, stack or float layout, with its own padding and gaps.
+- Commands focus, swap, stack, resize or float windows and move them between spaces and displays.
+- Rules decide how new windows from a given app or with a given title are handled.
+- Signals run a shell command when a window opens, a space changes or a display is added.
+- Queries report on displays, spaces and windows for your own scripts.
+
+Focus-follows-mouse, switching spaces without the animation and creating more than 16 spaces are also available.
+
+yabai needs the Accessibility permission and a restart after you grant it, plus Screen Recording only if you want window animations. Mission Control's "Displays have separate Spaces" setting must be on. Intel Macs need macOS 11 or later and Apple silicon Macs macOS 12 or later. Windows with macOS's own tabs, as in Terminal and Finder, misbehave when you create tabs, so avoid those tabs or float such windows.
+
+Some window controls, such as sticky windows, opacity and scratchpads, work only after you partially disable System Integrity Protection so yabai can load a scripting addition into the Dock. That step is optional, and the developer makes no recommendation either way. The release archive holds a Universal binary for Apple silicon and Intel, a man page and example config files.

-Yap waits in the menu bar for a global shortcut. While you speak, a small panel shows a waveform and a running transcript; pressing the shortcut again pastes the text into the app you were using. Past transcripts are kept locally so they can be copied again.
+Yap types what you say into whatever app you are using. Press Command-Shift-D, talk, and press it again: the transcript is pasted into the field you were working in. While you speak, a small window near the bottom of the screen shows a waveform and the text so far.
-Transcription uses Apple's on-device speech framework, so no cloud service or key is involved. The project states that it requires macOS 26 on an Apple silicon Mac and does not support Intel machines.
+- The shortcut can be rebound, or set to a single modifier key such as right Shift.
+- Pressing Escape twice throws away a dictation in progress.

+- Yap follows the system's default microphone, even if it changes mid-session.
+- The menu bar and Dock icons can each be hidden, leaving only the shortcut.
+
+Transcription runs on the Mac through the speech framework Apple added in macOS 26, so Yap carries no model of its own. Dictation works offline after macOS has downloaded the speech model for your language. It needs no account or API key, and the developers say the app makes no network calls and has no telemetry.
+
+On first launch Yap asks for microphone, speech recognition, Accessibility and Automation access. You have to turn on Accessibility yourself in System Settings. Pasting works by placing the text on the clipboard, sending Command-V, then putting your old clipboard back.
+
+Yap requires macOS 26 on an Apple silicon Mac and does not run on Intel. Version 0.1.15 is notarized.

-YouTube Music Desktop App runs the YouTube Music web player in its own window, separate from your browser. Its additions include custom global shortcuts, Discord status, Last.fm scrobbling, custom CSS themes and a companion server that lets third-party tools control playback.
+YouTube Music Desktop App puts the YouTube Music web player in a window of its own, outside your browser, and adds controls the website lacks. It is an unofficial client.
-It is a community project, not a Google product, and depends on the YouTube Music website continuing to work as it does. Mac builds for Apple silicon and Intel are published on GitHub; the Homebrew cask is community maintained.
+- Global shortcuts bind any key to a player action, so you can skip a track from any app.
+- A desktop notification shows each new song.
+- Discord can show what you are playing, and Last.fm can receive your scrobbles.
+- A CSS file of your own restyles the player.
+- Extra buttons in the player bar save the current track to your library or a playlist.
+- A sleep timer stops playback after a set time.
+
+Version 2.1 rebuilt much of the app's internals and added timed lyrics, taken from YouTube Music itself, in the lyrics tab. A companion server lets third-party apps talk to the player and extend it.
+
+On the Mac, releases come as separate ZIPs for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon build of 2.1.0 needs macOS 13 or later. A Homebrew cask exists, kept by the community.
+
+Because the app hooks into the YouTube Music site, changes on Google's side can break it. Version 2.0.12 fixed one such change that stopped the app from loading.

You can also install it as the yt-music Homebrew cask, or build it yourself in Xcode after running CocoaPods.
+
+YT Music is unofficial and has no connection to Google or YouTube. The ytmusic.app domain that once served as its website now hosts an unrelated gambling site, so get the app from the GitHub repository.

-Zed is a code editor designed around responsive navigation and editing. It brings project files, language tooling, and collaboration into a compact workspace.
+Open a folder in Zed and you can jump between files and symbols and edit with language intelligence from Tree-sitter grammars and language servers. The editor is written in Rust. It draws its interface on the GPU.
-The editor source is primarily GPL-3.0-or-later, with Apache-2.0 components where marked. Optional hosted services have their own plans and terms.
+- Multibuffers show excerpts from many files in one editable view, which helps with project-wide refactors.
+- The Git panel shows staged and unstaged changes and the current branch.
+- A debugger connects to languages through the Debug Adapter Protocol.
+- Remote development runs a headless Zed server over SSH while the interface stays on the Mac.
+- Vim emulation and an extension system cover keybindings, themes and extra languages.
+
+Real-time collaboration lets several people edit the same project with shared cursors and voice chat in channels. You must sign in, and sharing a project gives collaborators access to its files. The AI agent panel works with Zed-hosted models, your own provider API keys, or local models.
+
+Visual Studio Code is the editor most people arrive from. Zed imports its settings but not its extensions, and Zed's own extension catalog is smaller.
+
+The current release requires macOS 12 or later on Apple silicon or Intel Macs. Most of the code is GPL-3.0-or-later, with some components under Apache-2.0. The editor itself is free. Zed Pro is an optional paid plan that adds hosted AI models and unlimited edit predictions; without it, you use your own keys or no AI.
+
+Usage metrics and crash reports go to Zed by default. You can turn both off in settings. Hosted AI and collaboration also send data to Zed's servers.

-Zen adapts the Firefox browser platform into a workspace-focused desktop interface. Vertical tabs and workspace organization help separate different browsing contexts.
+Zen keeps your tabs in a vertical sidebar and groups them into workspaces, so a work project and personal browsing stay in separate sets you switch between. Underneath runs Firefox: release 1.24.1b is built on Firefox 159.0.1.
-It is an alternative browser distribution with its own interface decisions and release schedule. macOS disk images are published by the project.
+- Workspaces hold separate collections of tabs.
+- Compact Mode hides the tab bar until you need it.
+- Glance switches quickly among the tabs you use most.
+- Split View shows two tabs side by side. Select several tabs, right-click one and choose Split.
+
+There is no horizontal tab strip. The project's FAQ calls the vertical layout a core design choice and has no plans to change it.
+
+DRM-protected streaming does not play on macOS. Zen has no Widevine license yet, which rules out Netflix, Spotify, Disney+ and Apple Music in the browser. For looks, Zen Mods offers community themes and tweaks, and live CSS editing lets you change the interface yourself.
+
+The macOS download is one universal disk image for Apple silicon and Intel. Release builds use a stable Firefox version, while the Twilight channel carries pre-release builds with experimental features. The download page still labels Zen as beta.
+
+Arc also puts tabs in a sidebar organised into spaces, but it is built on Chromium, and The Browser Company shuts it down on 22 December 2026. Zen stays on Firefox's engine and is licensed under the MPL 2.0.

-Zettel is a small note-taking app for the Mac and iPhone built around a single full-window note rather than a sidebar of documents. Notes are organized with inline hashtags, the interface follows light, dark or system themes, and every note is saved as a plain Markdown file that other editors can open.
+Zettel gives the whole window to one note. There are no tabs and no folders: you write, and the note is saved as a plain Markdown file that other editors can open and that you can sync however you like.
-The macOS version requires macOS 26 or later and is distributed through the App Store; the GPL-3.0 source in the repository builds both the iOS and Mac apps.
+Typing a hashtag such as #ideas turns the word into a tag, and tags are how you find a note again later. Search covers your notes, and a note saves itself as you type. The interface follows a light, dark or system theme. On the iPhone, swiping across the screen tears the current note away so you can start a fresh one.
+
+The same app runs on iPhone and Mac. Version 3.2, from April 2026, announced the Mac version, which needs macOS 26 or later. It is sold on the App Store and needs no account. Its App Store privacy label says the developer collects no data.
+
+The full source for both versions is on GitHub under GPL-3.0. A build script compiles either platform once you add your own Apple developer team ID and bundle identifier.

-Zettlr combines a Markdown editor with a workspace for related files. It supports long-form writing and research workflows that use citations and plain-text documents.
+Zettlr is built for writing in Markdown. You type in plain text, cite sources from your reference manager and export the finished text in the format your school or employer asks for.
-It is useful when a collection of notes needs to develop into a paper or longer manuscript without abandoning local files.
+- Citations come from Zotero, JabRef and other reference managers.
+- Exports run through Pandoc and LaTeX, with Word and LaTeX templates.
+- A full-text search looks through the contents of your files.
+- Zettelkasten-style note management is supported for building a body of linked notes.
+- Snippets insert recurring boilerplate, and custom CSS changes the look of the editor.
+
+Some export profiles need a separate LaTeX installation, which the documentation explains how to set up. A short tutorial ships with the app for first-time users.
+
+Typora is another Markdown editor, built around a live preview that hides the Markdown syntax, and it is paid after a 15-day free trial. Zettlr is free under the GPL v3.
+
+The Mac version comes as two DMGs, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel. The interface is translated into more than a dozen languages. Development is funded by donations.

-Zotero stores references and supporting documents in an organized research library. Tags, collections, and document annotations help keep source material connected to your writing.
+Zotero catches a source while you browse and files it in a library you can search, annotate and cite from. With the Zotero Connector installed, one click saves an article from JSTOR, a preprint from arXiv, a news story or a book from a library catalog. The Safari connector ships inside the app; you switch it on in Safari's Extensions settings.
-Its desktop app works locally, with optional synchronization and group libraries. Additional hosted file storage is available as a paid service.
+In the library you sort items into collections and tag them. Saved searches fill themselves as matching items arrive. PDFs open in Zotero's own reader, where you add annotations and notes.
+
+- Citations and bibliographies in more than 9,000 styles.
+- Plugins for Word and LibreOffice, and support for Google Docs, that insert citations as you write.
+- Optional sync of items, notes and files across devices, with your library also reachable from a web browser.
+- Group libraries shared with as many people as you like, free of charge.
+
+File sync goes through Zotero Storage. A small allowance is free, and more space is a yearly subscription. Group libraries draw on the group owner's storage at no extra charge.
+
+Zotero needs macOS 10.15 or later. The Word plugin works with Word 2016 to 2024 or Office 365 on the Mac, and the LibreOffice plugin needs a Java Development Kit on macOS. Mobile apps exist for iOS and Android.
+
+The nonprofit Digital Scholar develops Zotero with outside contributors, and the code is licensed under the AGPL, version 3 or later.

-ZTools is a keyboard launcher in the style of the Chinese productivity tool uTools. Its search finds apps by name, pinyin or regular expression, remembers history and pinned items, and hands queries to plugins, which can show their own interface or run headless. A built-in plugin market installs and manages extensions.
+ZTools opens a search window when you press Option-Z. Type an app name or a command, move through the results with the arrow keys, and press Return. The project calls itself an open-source take on uTools, which it credits as its inspiration.
-It also keeps a searchable clipboard history that includes images, and offers light, dark and system themes. The app is built on Electron for macOS and Windows; GitHub releases include separate Apple silicon and Intel builds.

+- Clipboard history records text and images, and you can search it.
+- Themes follow the system or stay light or dark, with six accent colours.
+
+Writing a plugin starts with a plugin.json file. Plugin code reaches notifications, simulated input and storage through a global ztools object, and each plugin keeps its data apart from the others.
+
+ZTools is built on Electron and also runs on Windows. Version 3.2.0 has separate Apple silicon and Intel downloads, and its Apple silicon build is notarized and needs macOS 12 or later.

-Zulip organises team chat into streams and named topics, so conversations stay threaded instead of scrolling past. The desktop client wraps the Zulip web app and adds what a browser tab lacks: signing in to several organizations side by side, native notifications with inline replies, dock and tray integration, a multi-language spell checker and automatic updates.
+Zulip Desktop puts your Zulip organizations in their own Mac app, so team chat lives outside a browser tab. Most of its code is shared with the Zulip web app, and the developers send problems inside an organization's window to the web app project. Around that, the desktop client adds a few things of its own:
-It works with Zulip Cloud and self-hosted Zulip servers. Builds for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs are published on GitHub alongside Windows and Linux versions, and the app is also available as a Homebrew cask.
+- Signing in to several organizations.
+- Desktop notifications you can reply to inline.
+- Integration with the Dock and the tray.
+- A spell checker that works in several languages.
+
+If your organization sits behind a company proxy, the app can follow the system proxy settings or use a proxy you enter by hand. Installed from the disk image, Zulip Desktop updates itself to new versions. With the Homebrew cask, `brew upgrade zulip` gets you the newest release right away.
+
+Version 5.14.2 comes as separate builds for Apple silicon and Intel. The Apple silicon app needs macOS 13 or later and is signed by Kandra Labs and notarized by Apple. Windows and Linux builds come from the same Apache-2.0 source.
+
+Zulip itself is built around topics. Conversations in a channel are labeled with a topic, so you can see at a glance which ones are going on and read them one at a time. Slack also organizes chat into channels and threads, while Zulip makes the topic label the unit the whole design rests on.

+## Writing review (2026-11-08)
+
+Every app description, summary, alternatives intro and topic intro was measured, and ten well-known apps were compared with how official sites, AlternativeTo, MacUpdate, Uptodown, Softonic, Homebrew and Wikipedia describe them. Raw pages and measurements stay local; only figures are recorded here.
+
+- **The best-known apps have the thinnest pages.** The first 292 records (written on 2026-10-17) have a median body of 47 words, and 97.6% are under 60. They include LibreOffice, VLC, Blender, GIMP, Firefox, Bitwarden and Wireshark. Later batches run longer: 77 and 98.5 words for the rest of 10-17, 120 for 10-29, 134.5 for 11-02, 147 for the 11-06 bulk. Across the catalog, 731 bodies are under 100 words.
+- **Demand points the same way.** Ranked by Homebrew cask installs over 365 days, the most-installed thin records are LibreOffice (409,736), Ghostty, iTerm2, Stats, DBeaver, VLC, Rectangle, Zed, Maccy and Blender.
+- **The gap is facts, not wording.** On the ten compared apps, OpenMacApps averaged 48 descriptive words; official sites 292, AlternativeTo 201, MacUpdate 163, Uptodown 199. Readers find the minimum macOS version, the chips a build runs on and how to install it almost everywhere else, and none of it in the first records (1 of 292 states a macOS version). Rewording a seed record leaves it at about 50 words.
+- **Other sites are often wrong.** MacUpdate and Blender's own site disagree on Blender's minimum macOS; MacUpdate calls Bitwarden shareware; an Uptodown page still mentions the iPod and output formats HandBrake no longer offers. Facts in rewrites come from primary sources only.
+- **Classic AI-writing tells are almost absent** (AI vocabulary in 0.4% of records, no puffery or em-dash habit). The problems are templates: 92.8% of bodies have exactly two paragraphs and none uses a list; 83% of the 11-06 bodies carry an "It suits people who …" line; "The README says" opens sentences in 351 bodies; 42% walk through the first-launch security override; 42 bodies mention "this entry"; 396 of 472 records with `alternativeTo` never name the product they replace; 113 summaries use "native" as praise.
+- **Alternatives and topic intros are templated too.** 64 of 117 alternatives intros open their second paragraph with "The open-source apps below"; the CyberGhost and NordVPN pages share a paragraph word for word.
+
+**Decision.** A description standard (CONTRIBUTING.md, "Writing the description") with checks in `src/lib/writing.ts`: at least 120 words, no review-process language, at most one README attribution, no "It suits people who" slot, no summary opening with "native", and a named replaced product when `alternativeTo` is set. The checks apply to records verified on or after 2026-11-08, so the catalog moves to the standard record by record as each is rewritten and re-verified. A pilot of 20 rewrites, chosen by install demand, comes first.
+
+### Rewrite results (2026-11-08)
+
+All 734 descriptions under 100 words were rewritten and re-verified under the standard (details in `docs/VERIFICATION.md`). A second reviewer re-opened every cited page; per batch, 2–18% of first-draft claims were wrong or untraced, mostly softened upstream wording stated as fact and comparisons that went beyond the other vendor's own page. Five apps left the catalog because the downloadable Mac build is not the published open-source code or no longer works: Numi, Chatbox, Orkas, Sapphire and Notarize (`research/held-out.json`).

# Release verification
+## Every thin description rewritten — 2026-11-08
+
+After the 20-record pilot, every description under 100 words was rewritten to the house style in three waves, most-installed first (Homebrew cask installs over 365 days, then pages that already rank in search). 714 records were rewritten and re-verified (734 with the pilot); 5 were removed. No description in the catalog is now under 100 words.
+
+- **Two passes per record.** A writer re-read the license file, took every fact from the project's own site, README, release notes or release files, ran the copy check against the README and site, and wrote evidence notes. A second reviewer then opened each cited page again and fixed or removed what it did not say. Reviewers found 2–18% of claims wrong or untraced per batch (typically 6–10%): softer upstream wording stated as certain, comparisons that said more about the other product than its own site does, features from older or newer releases, and notarization implied for builds nobody checked. Every one was fixed or removed.
+- **Binary checks.** Notarization and chip claims come from `spctl`, `lipo` and `LSMinimumSystemVersion` on downloaded builds of 150 MB or less, or from the project's own statement, attributed. Bodies name the build that was checked. Downloads over the limit make no notarization claim.
+- **Licenses re-read.** 44 records changed license identifier, nearly all to `-or-later`, where the README notice or source headers say "or any later version" (OBS Studio, Wireshark, GIMP, Blender, VLC, FreeCAD, Zotero, KiCad and others); plain GPLv3 text stays `GPL-3.0`.
+- **Maintenance.** 44 apps gained `maintenance: "unmaintained"`: their README says the project is paused or no longer maintained, or there has been no release and no meaningful commit for two years.
+- **Free downloads.** VoiceInk, SaneHosts, SaneClick and SaneClip are paid after a trial, so `freeDownload` is now `false`.
+- **Homebrew.** Several bodies now say that Homebrew disabled a cask for failing its Gatekeeper check. `bun run homebrew` removed the deprecated `hyper` and `rustcast` casks and added `wallpapermachine`.
+- **Removed (`research/held-out.json`):** Numi (the repository holds only plugins; the app is proprietary), Chatbox (the official Mac download is the commercial build, not the GPL community edition), Orkas (the Mac download is the packaged app with sign-in and closed features), Sapphire (the official build bundles components the public source replaces with placeholders, behind a subscription) and Notarize (it works only through `altool`, which Apple's notary service stopped accepting on 2023-11-01).
+- **Rules into code.** `src/lib/writing.ts` now also rejects review-process wording ("was checked"), summaries written as instructions, puffery and stock frames, more than two attributions, sentences over 40 words, uniform sentence lengths, and a body that does not name a product from `alternativeTo`. Product names may contain "!" (osu!, Fritz!Box).
+
+1,135 records checked before 2026-11-08 and already over 100 words keep their earlier text until they are re-verified.
+
+Checked: `bun run validate` (1,869 apps), `bun test` (22 pass), `bun run check`, `bun run build` (2,061 pages), `bun run check:links` (178,707 links), `bun run check:generated`, `bun run check:homebrew` (571 casks).
+
+## Description standard and 20 rewrites — 2026-11-08
+
+The writing review in `docs/RESEARCH.md` (Writing review) led to a description standard in CONTRIBUTING.md and checks in `src/lib/writing.ts`, applied to every record verified on or after 2026-11-08. The 20 most-installed apps with thin descriptions were rewritten first: LibreOffice, Ghostty, iTerm2, Stats, DBeaver, VLC, Rectangle, Zed, Maccy, Blender, Ollama, Brave, IINA, Bruno, UTM, LocalSend, AltTab, Karabiner-Elements, Ice and Hammerspoon.
+
+- **Length.** Bodies went from 39–55 words to 178–284. Each states what the app does in concrete terms, names a product from `alternativeTo` (or the built-in macOS feature it stands in for) and gives the published requirements: minimum macOS and the chips a build runs on.
+- **Evidence.** Every fact comes from the project's own site, documentation, README, release notes or release files; third-party download sites were used only to see what readers look for. Rectangle, Maccy, LocalSend, AltTab, Karabiner-Elements, Ice and Hammerspoon were downloaded and checked with `lipo` and `spctl`; the others make no notarization claim. A second reviewer re-opened the sources for at least one requirement and one feature per app and removed sentences without primary support.
+- **Licenses re-read.** VLC is `GPL-2.0-or-later` (the README and module headers say "or any later version") and Blender `GPL-3.0-or-later` (blender.org's license page covers the program and its binaries). iTerm2's LICENSE file is GPL version 2 without "only" or "or later", and its source headers could not be read, so `GPL-2.0` stays until they are.
+- **Other corrections.** UTM's website is `getutm.app` (the old address redirects) and Hammerspoon's points to hammerspoon.org instead of its repository. Seven summaries that used praise words ("considered", "fast", "quick") or an imperative were rewritten.
+
+Checked: `bun run validate`, `bun test` (22 pass), `bun run check`, `bun run build`, `bun run check:links`, `bun run check:generated`.
## SEO audit fixes — 2026-11-07
A site-wide audit (technical, on-page and content, structured data and AI search, performance) read all 2,066 built pages in `dist/` and made about 60 spaced requests to the live site. It found nothing that blocks indexing: every indexable page has a self-referencing canonical that matches the sitemap, redirects are single 301s, and all 2,064 indexable pages carry valid JSON-LD. The code-level findings are fixed here:
