Inspect before you paste.
Installing software always takes some trust. MacKit is built so you can see exactly what will run before you run it.
- Your list stays with you
- The apps you pick never leave this browser. There are no accounts and no analytics.
- The installer is checked
- The command downloads a versioned installer and verifies its SHA-256 checksum before running it.
- Only app names go in
- The installer accepts a list of known app IDs and nothing else. It rejects flags, file paths, and extra commands.
- No sudo
- MacKit never runs commands as administrator. Your Mac may ask for your password while some apps install.
- You see it all first
- Checkout shows the installer’s source, its checksum, and every app before you copy anything.
Apps are installed with Homebrew, the open-source package manager for macOS, so you’re trusting this website and Homebrew. Read the command before you run it. If anything looks unexpected, don’t run it.
