A curated awesome-list of macOS terminal shell commands, tips, and command-line apps for doing powerful things from the command line. The GitHub mirror is no longer actively developed; the project has moved to the author's personal Git instance.

Use cases

  • find macos terminal commands to automate tasks
  • learn shell tricks for macos
  • discover command-line apps for mac
  • configure macos settings from the terminal
  • look up defaults write commands

When to choose

  • you want a curated reference of macOS shell commands and CLI apps
  • you prefer working in the terminal over GUI tools
  • you want to learn lesser-known macOS command-line capabilities

When to avoid

  • you need actively maintained GitHub-hosted content with easy PR contributions
  • you want cross-platform (Linux/Windows) command-line resources
  • you need a tool rather than a reference list
