O que é?
BrewUI is a native macOS graphical interface for Homebrew, the package manager for macOS. It lets users browse, install, update and remove formulae and casks through a SwiftUI app, aimed at people who would rather not work in the Terminal.
The app is built on the brew command-line tool and the Homebrew JSON API, so the operations it performs are the same ones the CLI runs. It also includes a read-only Services tab that lists installed formula services with their status, owner, login registration and log paths, with filters for running and stopped services. Starting, stopping and configuring services is done in Terminal. Homebrew options are set through a brew.env file, and the app must be relaunched after changes.
The project is written in Swift with strict concurrency and distributed as a Homebrew cask. Its interface is localised through community-maintained string catalogs, and partial translations fall back to English.
