The Mac app store Homebrew never had.
Browse, search, install, update, and uninstall thousands of Mac apps distributed through Homebrew, with original app icons, categories, popularity charts, and one-click actions, all in a clean native SwiftUI interface.
brew install --cask alielsokary/tap/caskhub
Features
Everything brew does, without the terminal.
CaskHub runs everything through your real brew binary, so anything you install here can be managed from the command line, and vice versa.
Browse thousands of Mac apps
Curated shelves, a rotating hero pick, a Featured top 100, and every cask classified into browsable categories.
Top Charts, real install data
The most-installed casks ranked by Homebrew's public analytics, with 30, 90, and 365-day windows.
Recently added
New arrivals to Homebrew from the last 30-90 days, so you catch new apps early.
One-click everything
Install, update, and uninstall with live progress states and cancellable downloads. pkg installers get a native macOS password prompt.
Adopt existing apps
Installed something from a DMG or another store? Bring it under brew management with one click. The app stays right where it is.
Updates that matter
Smart detection skips self-updating apps and normalizes packaging quirks, so the Updates badge only shows real updates.
Instant search
Search across names, tokens, and descriptions with ⌘F. Original app icons and rich metadata make results easy to scan.
Fully compatible with the CLI
CaskHub reads your real Caskroom and shells out to your real brew. It even detects apps you installed from the terminal.
Native & polished
Grid and list views, flexible sorting, light and dark themes, and bundled category data, so browsing never blocks on the network.
How it works
Three levels of Homebrew, one app.
Catalog & analytics
The catalog and install charts come from the public Homebrew API. No Homebrew installation is required just to browse.
Installed-app detection
CaskHub reads install receipts directly from your Caskroom. Fast, offline, and no shelling out needed.
Real brew actions
Installs, updates, and uninstalls run through your actual brew binary, staying fully compatible with the command line.
Appearance
Comes in light and dark.
Private by default
Anonymous, privacy-first analytics with IDs salted and hashed on-device. No personal data ever leaves your Mac, and you can opt out of everything in Settings → Privacy.
Free & open source
MIT licensed, built in the open with SwiftUI. No subscription, no premium tier, no ads. Read the source or build it yourself.
