A private notch workspace for every Mac

Visit site ↗Alternativestop 2% of June 2026

What it does

Aurora turns your Mac notch or top edge into a private productivity dock for quick actions: notes, clipboard, calendar, focus timers, media controls, widgets, and writing tools. Works on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, including non-notch Macs via the top edge. Start with 72 hours of Pro, no account and no card. Private by design: your data stays on your Mac.

Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481
Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
