I built a Mac app to track config drift

I've been working on MacFlow, a native Mac app that monitors your setup for drift - dotfiles, Homebrew packages, applications.

The problem: my dev environment kept slowly diverging from what I actually wanted. Packages I didn't remember installing, dotfiles out of sync, apps piling up. So I built something to track it.

It also performs storage cleanup, security checks, and package management, but drift tracking is its core functionality.

Looking for feedback from anyone who cares about keeping their Mac dialed in. 14-day free trial, no credit card.

Would love to hear what's broken or missing.
