About

Cakebrew is a free and open-source graphical user interface (GUI) for Homebrew, developed in Brazil, designed to simplify daily package management tasks on Mac. It offers an intuitive experience, likened to Synaptics for Linux package managers, enabling users to manage Homebrew packages without needing to use the terminal. Its core functionalities include a user-friendly GUI for Homebrew, comprehensive package management, and the unique ability for users to suggest and vote on new features, all accessible without any registration. Praised by users for bringing a convenient Mac GUI experience to Homebrew and making it easily accessible for 'unix-ungeeks', Cakebrew is available for Mac and its development is openly managed on GitHub at https://github.com/brunophilipe/Cakebrew.
