Tappie is a free Homebrew GUI for macOS and Linux. Native Swift edition for Mac, plus cross-platform Python edition. Browse, search, install, and update Homebrew packages without the command line. Visual dependency graph, backup & restore, scheduled updates. Alternative to Cork and Cakebrew.

Tappie is a native Homebrew GUI for Mac. Browse, search, install, and update packages without the command line. Built with SwiftUI for a fast, lightweight experience. Free to use. Describe the packages you want in plain language and Tappie builds the advanced filter for you - entirely on-device. Requires macOS 26 with Apple Intelligence. Start, stop, and restart background services - postgresql, redis, nginx, and more - from a dedicated Services window. No brew services commands to remember. Tappie lives in your menu bar with a badge showing how many packages have updates. Upgrade everything or jump to a package without opening the main window. Installed casks show their own application…from empiricapps.com
