Cakebrew - The Mac App for Homebrew
Do most of the usual tasks you need of Homebrew. Including updating and finding problems with the Doctor! Afraid to use the terminal? Cakebrew supports Homebrew/bundle . Export and import formulae easily! Cakebrew is open-source! Sweep through the code, fork, and improve it as you wish! Cakebrew was designed with the user in mind. No complicated interfaces!

Talanoa▲341Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
