  Interesting how many open source apps I'm using are missing: VLC https://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html https://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html Brackets http://brackets.io/ http://brackets.io/ Gimp https://www.gimp.org/ https://www.gimp.org/ ResolutionMenu https://github.com/robbertkl/ResolutionMenu https://github.com/robbertkl/ResolutionMenu Geany https://geany.org/ https://geany.org/ NVAlt http://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt/ http://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt/ Does mention FSNotes though, I need to check it out.

    What does Brackets offer the competitors (atom and vscode) don't?
    • OJFord 8y ago
      What does Atom offer that VSCode doesn't? What does VSCode offer that Atom doesn't? People have preferences.
    • roryisok 8y ago
      This is a list of apps. The more the merrier, right? It doesn't matter if brackets offers anything over vscode/atom
    • solarkraft 8y ago
      AFAIK Brackets predates both. It's a very pleasant IDE for web development while the other two have more general goals.

      Doesn't need all the Electron baggage so it's much more lightweight on the system while still having all the features (I need).

    Because it's design by people-with-open-source-macOS-apps-who-have-seen-it-and-want-in. Some of these 'awesome' lists are great, but this one is _far_ too broad in scope. Most other 'awesome' lists could probably be merged right in.

  If anyone wants to see a more personal curated list of macOS apps. I made a list of all the apps I use and how here: https://github.com/nikitavoloboev/my-mac-os https://github.com/nikitavoloboev/my-mac-os

  I maintain a much smaller and curated list for my personal use which just got updated after I had to redo the Mac setup: https://github.com/ashishb/dotfiles/blob/master/setup/setup_new_mac_machine.sh#L56-L115 https://github.com/ashishb/dotfiles/blob/master/setup/setup_...

    How is this comparable when most of those aren’t open source
    • roryisok 8y ago
      I'd dearly love to see a super set that included open and closed source and had a tag for each, like this does for platform/language. I do care about open source but I'll take a closed source app in a pinch if it fixes a problem

      I found it useful

    You can use a Brewfile and homebrew's "bundle" option to simplify your setup script: https://medium.com/@satorusasozaki/automate-mac-os-x-configuration-by-using-brewfile-58a78ce5cc53 https://medium.com/@satorusasozaki/automate-mac-os-x-configu... https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-bundle https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-bundle

      Thanks, issue added, https://github.com/ashishb/dotfiles/issues/4 https://github.com/ashishb/dotfiles/issues/4

  Weird it lists Firefox but not Chromium. Firefox on Windows is great, but on Mac it's just ok.
  • willtim 8y ago
    Firefox is great on Linux too.

  Does anyone have a windows version of this list? Or a cross platform one at least? The closest I can find is this list of windows apps, not open source though. https://github.com/Awesome-Windows/Awesome/blob/master/README.md https://github.com/Awesome-Windows/Awesome/blob/master/READM...
