Recently, I spent a few weeks building an app to curate the ~/.ssh/config file. Primarily developed to experiment with Qt wrappers, I chose PySide as its license was less restrictive than PyQt.

I also put together a quick google site for promotion, though it hasn’t gained many downloads—understandable, considering it accesses the .ssh folder

A feature-reduced version is now live in the app store. Packaging and signing a Python app for macOS was an interesting experience. The GitHub version is more fully featured, as the App Store version ended up being too restrictive.

The app was heavily inspired by 'Pac Manager' on Linux, a tool I used several years ago while managing a large fleet of devices. I appreciated its simplicity and wanted to replicate that ease of use.
