A Cocoa-based graphical user interface (GUI) designed for the MacPorts package manager that simplifies the installation and management of software on macOS systems.
Traditionally, MacPorts offers a TCL command-line tool to manage installation, update, and activation of the port packages. Porticus takes this to the next level by providing an intuitive and user-friendly GUI front-end to help you navigate the MacPorts ecosystem.
Porticus offers you much more than just basic functionality. With its standard Mac OS X application features, you'll enjoy a host of benefits including a search box that enables you to locate any specific port that you require. Also, Contextual menus make finding and selecting ports a breeze. You'll also love the tree and table views that help you view port information easily by either category or name.
Integration with Growl for status reporting is another benefit that you'll get with Porticus today, and future versions will add support for Applescript. With Porticus, you'll have all the control and power that's available through the MacPorts project in one place, and that too, in a stunning and user-friendly GUI.
