Installation
Install Developers Kit from the Mac App Store and take the 60-second tour.
Requirements
- A Mac running macOS 26 or later
- That's it. No account, no license key, no internet connection needed after download.
Install
- Open Developers Kit on the Mac App Store — or open the App Store on your Mac and search for Developers Kit.
- Click Get (or the price button), then confirm with Touch ID or your Apple Account password.
- Launch Developers Kit from Launchpad or Spotlight (⌘Space, type "Developers Kit").
First launch — the 60-second tour
When the app opens you'll see one window with a sidebar on the left. The sidebar has two groups:
- Apps — Password Manager, Database Client, ENV Manager, Clipboard. These hold data and have their own storage.
- Utilities — JWT Inspector, JSON Formatter, Diff Tool, Port Manager. These are paste-in → get-answer tools.
Click any tool to switch to it. Your work is kept when you switch away and back — tools stay alive in the background of the window.
The menu bar icon
Developers Kit also puts an icon in your menu bar (top-right of your screen). From there you can:
- Jump straight to any tool.
- Open the Clipboard quick panel — your recent and pinned clips, one click to copy.
One keystroke to remember
Press ⌃⌘V (Control + Command + V) in any app to open the clipboard palette. You don't need the app window open. This is the single most useful shortcut in Developers Kit.
