Project overview
appify generates a real macOS `.app` bundle around a terminal UI command, giving tools such as btop or weechat their own window, Dock icon, and Cmd+Tab entry. Run it with the target command and optionally set the application name, icon, bundle identifier, working directory, window size, or bundled Ghostty configuration. Generated apps embed their own GPU-accelerated Ghostty terminal engine, so users do not need an existing Ghostty installation. The tool is specifically for macOS rather than a cross-platform app packager.
