## What it is
A Swift library for macOS that displays task progress directly in an app's Dock icon, with built-in styles like bar, circle, badge, and pie. It supports manual progress updates, Foundation Progress instances, and SwiftUI integration with custom styles.

## Use cases
- show download progress in the macos dock icon
- display a progress circle around my app icon
- add a badge with a count to the dock icon
- show file processing progress in the dock
- integrate dock progress with swiftui
- create a custom dock progress indicator with canvas drawing

## When to choose
- you're building a native macOS app in Swift and want progress visible in the Dock
- you want multiple prebuilt progress styles plus SwiftUI and Canvas customization
- you prefer a lightweight Swift Package Manager dependency

## When to avoid
- you're targeting iOS, Windows, or Linux
- your app doesn't show in the Dock (e.g. menu bar-only apps)
- you need progress UI inside your app window rather than on the Dock icon
