Awesome MacOS Software v2.0.2 (Marvin)
A curated list of fantastically awesome software for Apple's macOS operating system. This list was inspired by
Awesome Sysadmin. Legend: Open Source apps = 
. Paid
apps = 
. Free apps have a 
icon. Any app with a yellow star (
) is one of my
favorites and something that I recommend you check out. 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.
