M-CourtyardM-Courtyard is a desktop app for fine-tuning large language models locally on an Apple Silicon Mac, without writing code. You import your documents, turn them into a training dataset, run a LoRA fine-tune with Apple's MLX through mlx-lm, test the result in a built-in chat and export it. The project says no data leaves your Mac.AI
LogueLogue is a local-first workspace for documents, tasks and meetings on macOS. It has nested spaces, a block editor, typed properties, relations, wiki links with backlinks and saved views, so it will feel familiar if you have used Notion or Obsidian. It also records meetings, transcribes them, separates the speakers, writes the minutes and turns what people committed to into tasks. An AI agent works across all of it.Productivity
PlayStatusPlayStatus is a native SwiftUI app that lives in the Mac menu bar and controls Apple Music and Spotify, so you can play, skip and search without keeping a full music window open. It has three player layouts: a regular player with artwork, search, lyrics and credits, a compact mini player, and a detached floating window that can stay on top of other windows.Music & Audio
HardwareVisualizerHardwareVisualizer is a desktop app that shows how your computer's hardware is doing right now and how it behaved over days and months. It has live gauges and graphs for CPU, memory and GPU usage, per-core usage and running processes, plus a specifications sheet with a hardware report you can copy. Its Insights section looks back at usage history, and a menu bar widget keeps the main figures in view.System Utilities
EnviousWisprEnviousWispr is a dictation app for the Mac menu bar. Press a keyboard shortcut in any app, speak, and your words are transcribed on your Mac and pasted where you were typing. You can choose between two speech models: Parakeet Ultra, the fast default for 25 European languages, and Whisper, which covers more than 99 languages and detects the language automatically. It works offline and needs no account or subscription.AI

Qwen ScribeQwen Scribe is a menu bar app with a local web interface that transcribes audio and video files and adds system-wide dictation on Apple Silicon Macs. It runs the Qwen3-ASR speech model on the Mac's own GPU through MLX. There is no account, no API key and no Qwen Scribe cloud service, so audio and transcripts stay on the Mac.AI
Progressive DownloaderProgressive Downloader is a download manager for Mac that splits a file across several connections to use the full width of your internet connection. You can pause and resume tasks, limit how many downloads run at once, and let the app sort files into groups by type or source. When a link fails, its mirror search looks for another source.Internet Utilities
Window GlueWindow Glue is a small macOS menu bar utility that lets you glue two windows together so that they behave, mostly, as one. Turn on Add Glue from the menu bar icon, drag a window near another, and a glow shows where it will snap. Once they are joined, moving one window brings the other along. Shake a window quickly to break the connection.Customization
TracexyTracexy is a native macOS packet analyzer for live network traffic and saved PCAP or PCAPNG files. Instead of starting from a long list of packets, it groups traffic into sessions and connects them to the Mac app that made them when macOS provides that information, so you can see which process contacted which host, which protocols appeared and how much data moved. Decoded fields and raw bytes stay one click away. Missing evidence is shown as unknown rather than guessed.Developer Tools
cTiVocTiVo is a free Mac application that downloads shows from your TiVo and converts them to many popular formats and devices. It finds the TiVos on your network by itself, shows you what is on them, and lets you queue shows by dragging them. Once you subscribe to your regular shows, new episodes download and convert without further work, so they can be waiting on your iPhone or iPad in the morning.Video
StikStik is a quick-capture note app for macOS. Press Cmd+Shift+S from any app and a floating post-it appears. Type your thought, close it, and you are back at work. Every note is saved as a plain Markdown file in ~/Documents/Stik/, with no account and no sync setup. Folders in Stik are real folders on disk, so you can open, move or back up your notes with any other tool.Productivity
ClaudoscopeClaudoscope is a native macOS menu bar app for exploring and analyzing your Claude Code and Cowork sessions. It reads the session files already on your Mac, in ~/.claude/projects/, and shows them in a compact menu bar widget and a full dashboard window. You can follow live agents, study past sessions, see where tokens went and get alerts while something is still going wrong.Developer Tools
BlueJBlueJ is a development environment for writing Java programs, designed for beginners and for teaching. Its interface is deliberately smaller and simpler than professional environments such as NetBeans or Eclipse, so new programmers can start quickly without being overwhelmed. It is built around interaction: you can create objects, inspect their values and call their methods directly, and type Java expressions without compiling them first.Developer Tools
WhaleWhale is an unofficial desktop app for Trello. It opens Trello in its own window, so your boards sit in the Dock and the app switcher instead of in a browser tab. It is built with Electron and shows the Trello website itself, so you sign in with your Trello account and everything you do happens on Trello. Whale remembers its window size and position, reopens the page you had open, and has keyboard shortcuts for going Home, Back and Forward. Links to other sites open in your normal browser.Productivity
Valentina StudioValentina Studio is a database management and development tool for data architects, developers, database administrators, teachers and students. It works with DuckDB, MySQL and MariaDB, MongoDB, Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, SQLite and the developer's own ValentinaDB, and it covers both SQL and NoSQL work. From one window you can design a database as a diagram, change its schema, browse and edit records, write SQL or build a query visually, and administer a server.Developer Tools
DockitDockit is a small macOS window management tool focused on one job: docking windows to the edge of the screen and previewing them quickly. Send a window to the left or right edge and it tucks away, leaving a sliver showing. Move the pointer to that edge and the window expands, then it retracts when you leave. It is useful for a window you check often, such as notes, a chat or a terminal, without giving it a permanent place on the screen.Customization
usageusage keeps your AI coding quota in the Mac menu bar. It shows the 5-hour and weekly limits of Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity and Muse Code with reset countdowns, plus Grok CLI's weekly credit, and turns a quota red as it nears its limit. Click the icon for the full session, weekly and per-project breakdown. Most token and cost figures come from local logs already on your Mac.Developer Tools
OpenHabitTrackerOpenHabitTracker brings notes, tasks and habits together in one app. Notes use Markdown and are shown rendered in the list. Tasks have a planned date and time, a duration, a checklist and a timer. Habits work differently from most trackers: instead of a streak that breaks, each habit has a repeat interval and the app shows how overdue it is, so a habit with a 10-day interval that is 2 days overdue reads 120%. Classic streaks are available but off by default.Productivity
DorothyDorothy is a desktop app for running several AI coding agents at the same time. It works with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Grok and local agents, and gives each agent its own isolated terminal session, so you can follow many projects from one window instead of keeping one agent in one terminal. You choose the skills, model and project for each agent, send input to any running agent and watch its output live.Developer Tools
PraatPraat is a tool for doing phonetics by computer. It can analyse, synthesize and manipulate speech, and it creates high-quality pictures for publications. You can measure the pitch, formants, intensity and voice quality of a recording, view spectrograms and cochleagrams, and change the pitch, intensity and duration of an utterance.Education
ChangesChanges is a modern Git client for the Mac, built with SwiftUI and AppKit and styled with Apple’s Liquid Glass design. It replaces complex command-line work with a clear, Mac-native interface that keeps the mental load low, so you can focus on your code. Commit messages and stash summaries can be generated with Apple Intelligence.Developer Tools
