container is a Swift tool that runs OCI-compatible Linux containers as lightweight VMs on macOS 26 Apple Silicon. It lets you pull, build, push, and run standard container images, and provides scripts for install, upgrade, downgrade, and uninstall. The project uses the Containerization Swift package and is in active development with a stable API only within patch versions.

• Apple's own tool runs standard OCI containers as lightweight Linux VMs directly on Apple silicon Macs, using the virtualization framework instead of Docker-style shared-kernel containers.
• Requires macOS 26 specifically, and it's built on Apple's open-source Containerization Swift package.
• Still 0.x/actively developed, so breaking changes can happen between minor versions—only patch releases are guaranteed stable.
• Comes with full lifecycle tooling (install/upgrade/downgrade/uninstall scripts, CLI for pulling/building/pushing images) rather than being just a proof-of-concept.

Pearcleaner is an open-source Mac utility that uninstalls apps, removes leftover files and manages development and plugin environments. The maintainer is currently busy with full-time work and a new SaaS startup but welcomes PRs and plans to resume issue triage and feature work when time allows.

• Pearcleaner development is stalled because the maintainer took a full-time job at a friend's SaaS startup, but he'll resume issue triage when time allows.
• It's a free, source-available Mac cleaner (Apache 2.0 + Commons Clause) offering orphaned file detection, CLI/drag-and-drop uninstalls, Homebrew/PKG support, and a Sentinel Monitor that uses only ~2MB RAM.
• The Commons Clause license bars any commercial monetization of the app or derivatives.
• Requires macOS 13 (Ventura) or newer, installable via GitHub releases or `brew install --cask pearcleaner`.
