Apparency The App That Opens Apps What Happens When You Open That App? macOS checks every app against a slew of security features: Gatekeeper, notarization, hardening, entitlements and more. But it doesn't show you the result of these checks, preferring to keep these behind the scenes — either the app opens or it doesn't, perhaps with an “app downloaded from the internet” dialog first. Even “code signatures” — around since Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard!) — are visible only via arcane Terminal incantations. What's Inside That App? Today's macOS apps are often made up of many pieces. Some of these are organizational artifacts, of interest only to the developers. But some pieces of an app can extend macOS itself — Share Extensions, Today Widgets, Safari Extensions, Quick Look generators, Spotlight importers, and so on. macOS lets you see and manage some of these, but not all of them, and not all in one place. Enter Apparency — The App That Opens Apps. Control-click on an app in the Finder, choose Open With Apparency, and see all the details in one place:

Now I present the rest, an assortment of many macOS apps and projects hosted on my HitHub page:

https://github.com/skyscope-sentinel/awesome-macOS

Note: I have forked the repository and I am not the original creator of this resource I have merely done this to make it more easily referenced to help users here find it in an easier manner, original content credit is to the original repository from which it was sourced. [This can be seen on the page itself] 

The following is from me personally, with applications I use myself:

Are you a developer or coder wanting AI LLM with an almost infinite use case scenario or close to it? Try these amazing macOS apps:

New - Google's AntiGravity IDE https://antigravity.google.com

Or if you are after unlimited free model inference with many free models available sign up for free with Open router, click on the top right and there should be an option to create API key, open terminal if it doesn't exist simply type: touch ~/.zshrc and hit enter, then type in first line: # OpenRouter then hit enter and in second line type: export OPENROUTER_API_KEY="sk-...." then hit ctrl and the letter x it will ask you if you wish to save this enter the letter y and if it didn't automatically close simply hit enter one more time, and lastly type in the terminal: source ~/.zshrc , now the fun part! If you haven't installed brew yet or don't know much about it type this into the terminal: xcode-select --install and hit enter a prompt will appear simply agree to it and hit ok or accept or similar allow it to download and set up it will close by itself , then simply copy and paste this: /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" and this will install brew, make note of the last few lines shown and copy and paste them one by one in the same terminal this ensures brew can work properly, brew allows you to easily install many different apps and libraries with minimal effort, for example if you want python simply type Brew install python, need nodejs/npm simply type brew install nodejs and so on, ok this is now the fun part, we use Brew to install Crush which is an agentic CLI or Terminal AI developer coder assistant you can chat to in natural language and it can perform tasks fix macOS configurations, develop scripts and apps and much more, install it by entering:

brew install charmbracelet/tap/crush

Then lastly repeat: source ~/.zshrc and hit enter, then just type in crush hit enter which will start the crush app in the terminal (every time after all you need to do is type crush to start it no complex setup again it's a one time task and it's easy just follow the guide here you can't go wrong, now there is a small chance it will ask you for the OpenRouter API key even though it's in your environment variables now if you followed the instructions carefully, otherwise it should simply work immediately, now this is a one time step, hit ctrl and the letter p , a terminal prompt appears or app menu, whatever you want to call it, hit up down arrows find where it says 'select model or change model' and hit up or down until you find where it says Open Router, scroll until you find any model ending with the word 'free' once selected hit enter , type something like: list all files in my Downloads directory, and it will, by default a prompt appears allowing you control to allow it to perform that action or to deny it, to make it autonomous without prompting you, hit ctrl and letter p, hit down arrow selecting YOLO mode and hit enter ask same thing or anything you want done it should now be able to do it without asking, lastly if it did ask you for the API key , open another terminal window and type: nano ~/.zshrc and hit enter, select with your mouse the API key make sure you select the key without the " " surrounding it , then hit command or the windows logo key and the letter c to copy , click back on the first terminal window, click again just in case in the area where it wants you to enter the API key and hit on keyboard command or windows key and the letter v to paste it in, then hit enter and you're all set up.

Additionally want free movie and tv series streaming that's in a user friendly easy to use app, this one is amazing in my opinion, go to https://strem.io and download it and give it a try.

Want local inpainting upscaling photo editing get an app called Diffusion Bee , look it up and test it out, there is also one just for photo or image upscaling itself it's called Upscayl and that one is cross platform try that out too.

Now if you want an all in one application with almost anything AI you can think of look up: 'pinokio AI browser' and I recommend you get it from GitHub directly as there are many different search results that could make a user click an unofficial link ( Note all the ones I'm mentioning don't cost you a cent if money is being asked for it isn't the right website keep searching)

Now lastly, how about an AI agent that can browse for you in the browser itself there's the open source free option BrowserOS.org download the app and try it it's based on Chrome so any Google Chrome extensions will work on it too, or there is my favorite but it has a limit on how much you can ask of it and it's still a large enough allowance to do alot with but if you go over that it shows a prompt to subscribe, or simply wait and continue later it automatically saves where you leave off, it's very capable and more capable than the open source browser mentioned before it in terms of capabilities. Lastly there is also an entirely free Comet Browser from Perplexity.ai (Note although useful they can and do collect and store who knows what so just be mindful).

That's basically several resources and suggestions to get you started and get you to the top of NERD mountain lol 😂 

If you need anything particular just post a reply I'll try my best to find an app that can help with what you want if you don't find it in the links here, but I'm not always online so if I don't respond immediately I definitely will when I am.
