CLUSTER LOCAL-DESKTOP-DEVELOPMENT · 27 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-13

Local dev service managers

This cluster comprises desktop and macOS apps that start, stop, monitor, and visualize local development services, including containers, logs, ports, and run configurations. The pre-index dated history is sparse—one entry in 2021, one in late 2025, and three in mid-2026—offering no clear pattern. Among these dated members, amp-auto-runner leads with 5 stars, while avenil and lazylaunchd each hold 1 star.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 7 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
