[OS] hledger for Mac - a native macOS companion for plain text accounting (free, open source)
Hey everyone! I've been working on hledger for Mac, a native SwiftUI app that gives your hledger plain text accounting journal a proper macOS interface.If you use hledger (or are curious about plain text accounting), this app sits on top of your existing journal files and provides:Dashboard with income/expenses/net at a glanceTransaction management with search, filters, and month navigationRecurring transaction rules with batch generationBudget tracking (actual vs target)Financial reports (Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) with chartsInvestment portfolio tracking with market pricesFull keyboard shortcut supportEverything runs locally - your financial data never leaves your Mac. The app just calls hledger under the hood and presents the output in a clean native UI.It's free, open source (MIT), and still in active development (currently in RC phase). Built for macOS 26 with SwiftUI.GitHub: https://github.com/thesmokinator/hledger-macosWould love any feedback, bug reports, or feature ideas. And if you find it useful, a star on GitHub helps a lot!

Alfred, Security and Privacy Concerns... before buying it again!
I bought Alfred years ago, but later I just used Spotlight. However, I am using Alfred again now and I want to go back to it and buy it, after all I'd always love the app. I don't care about Raycast by the way (I read not so good things about privacy and I think is an Electron app).My big question is about security and privacy. Alfred itself looks good in that department, but what about Clipboard History and, even more so, Workflows?I use 1Password, and the autofill is really good, but many times I need to copy and paste passwords. Is there any way that passwords could stay on the clipboard?The problem here is downloading stuff for Alfred from different sources. I see there are workflows from the Alfred team (https://alfred.app/workflows/alfredapp/), I bet we can trust on those but what about third-party ones? You know, many .sh scripts come inside workflows (e.g., https://github.com/FireFingers21/alfred-firefox-bookmarks/tree/main/Workflow).Also, I see themes shared by random people on the forum, and even .zip files from random sites.I don't know if you read the news recently, the Axios attack is a similar of getting packages from different sources in to an "app/site" (https://www.youtube.com/results?search\_query=axios+attack).How we can I trust external workflows and related content? You know, Alfred is an app constantly getting code from other sources.

We built a native macOS music player focused on local files + lyrics — Tingting
We got tired of not having a good home for local FLAC collections. Apple Music keeps pushing toward streaming, and VLC works but feels like a workaround.So we spent a few months building our own: Tingting — a native macOS music player built with SwiftUI, designed specifically for local music libraries.What it does:Plays FLAC, ALAC, MP3, M4A, WAV — full lossless support via AVFoundationAuto-fetches lyrics from open-source databases and saves them locallyManual .lrc import via drag & dropNative macOS window management — 4 independent windows (player, playlist, lyrics, equalizer)10-band equalizer (unlockable, $0.99 IAP)App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tingting-player/id6756565155Website: https://tingting.chainbow.co.jp/Happy to hear feedback or bug reports — this is early days.

Is There an App Similar to "TypeItIn" for Windows PC?
Is there an app that is similar to "TypeItIn" which I use in Windows PC?It is basically to automate repetitive typing tasks by allowing users to create custom phases through clickable buttons for phrases, emails, passwords, and data.No need to memorise countless abbreviations.Here is the GIF showing you how it works.https://i.redd.it/cnw8o23r0atg1.gif

I built a free macOS menu bar app that shows live IPL / EPL scores - no browser needed
Problem:Checking cricket or football scores during the day means constant browser tab-switching. There's no lightweight, native way to glance at a live score without breaking your flow.Comparison:- Mela / Fantastical sports widgets — require a separate window or Today widget; not persistent in the menu bar- Browser tabs / ESPN app — heavy, ad-filled, demand full attention                                     IPL Menu Bar and EPL Menu Bar sit silently in your menu bar and show the live score at a glance. Native Swift, notarized by Apple, no Electron.Pricing:Free — https://scorebar.app https://reddit.com/link/1scwqd0/video/fcohlkl3kbtg1/player

Mockphine - local mock API server for frontend and QA on macOS
MockphineProblem:Frontend and QA work often gets blocked when backend endpoints are incomplete, unstable, or changing. Staging is unreliable for repeatable testing, and custom mock scripts tend to drift and break over time.Comparison:Mockphine is a local macOS desktop app for running a mock API server. You can define endpoints, switch each route between mock, passthrough, or disabled, inspect traffic in Live View, and simulate delays or failures. Compared with using staging, Postman mocks, or ad hoc scripts, it is built for a more deterministic local workflow on Mac.Pricing:Free tier available.One-time paid licenses.Easter promo: 50% off with code `MOCKPHINEEASTER`Valid until April 10, 2026.Disclosure:I’m the developer.https://mockphine.com/
