About

Applite is a free and open-source macOS application that streamlines the installation and management of third-party apps using Homebrew. The app is built using Swift and SwiftUI.

The main goal of the application is to bring the convenience of Homebrew casks to the non-technical user. So the UI was designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind.
