icon_macos_02

A curated list of fantastically awesome software for Apple's macOS operating system. This list was inspired by Awesome Sysadmin. Legend: Open Source apps = Open Source. Paid apps = Dollar.

Note: I wanted to have a little fun with the version numbers, so starting with v1.9.4, all versions will be named after sci-fi robots, androids, cyborgs, supercomputers, etc.
