About:
ToolReleases is a macOS utility that monitors and notifies users about the latest Apple developer tool releases, including Xcode, Swift, and SDKs. It automatically checks for updates, including Beta versions, and provides a convenient menu bar interface. This streamlines the workflow for developers who need to stay current with the rapidly evolving Apple ecosystem.
Key Features:
  • Real-time notifications for new Apple tool releases
  • Supports both stable and beta version tracking
  • Menu bar integration for easy access
  • Quick links to release notes and download pages
Use Cases:
  • Staying updated on the latest Xcode and Swift versions
  • Monitoring beta releases for testing new features
  • Managing multiple tool versions across projects
Alternatives:
  • Homebrew – Homebrew can manage installations but lacks dedicated release notifications for Apple-specific tools.
  • App Store – The App Store provides updates but does not focus on developer tools or beta releases.
