What do you want to see in Flocon?
Hello @florent37 ,
First of all, thank you for working in this amazing library. I have a small feature request to widen its usage across my company.
Problem
Currently, updating Flocon on macOS requires:
- Manually downloading the new release from GitHub
- Dealing with macOS security warnings (Gatekeeper)
- Manually authorizing the app through System Settings → Security
This process is tedious and error-prone, especially given the project's active development pace.
Proposed Solution
Add Flocon to Homebrew Cask, which would allow:
Installation
brew install --cask flocon
Updates
brew upgrade flocon
Why This Makes Sense
Active Maintenance: The project is actively maintained with frequent releases (v1.6.0 → v1.6.3 released within 5 days in December 2025)
Developer Tool: Flocon is specifically targeted at developers, who commonly use Homebrew
Simplified Updates: Homebrew handles versioning and updates automatically
Better Security UX: Homebrew-installed apps bypass some Gatekeeper friction
