EIDevTools is a personal utility that grew up. I wrote it for myself, then noticed my colleagues kept asking for installers. Distribution stayed simple: a website and a .dmg.
Native macOS — Swift + AppKit. No Electron, no Chromium, no embedded browser. The whole binary fits in roughly 10 MB.
Menu-bar only — no Dock icon. The app is a tool, not a destination. Most interactions go through global hotkeys; the menu opens only when you ask for it.
Privacy by construction — no server, no account, no telemetry. The Translator is the single network feature, and it goes directly to Google Translate over HTTPS.
iCloud Drive sync — uses Apple's file-based sync, not a custom backend. End-to-end encryption is Apple's problem; EIDevTools never sees your settings in transit.
