A CLOSER LOOK

A few moments inside Env Reaper.

From the first screen to the details that make it useful.

01 / THE WORKFLOW

One repository. Four environments.

Compare definition presence across the demo environment files. Values stay masked; missing cells may be intentional.

Configuration, exhumed

The built-in Shipwreck demo workspace shows variable health, missing definitions, and stale configuration. These are sample findings, not a production scan.

A NOTE FROM THE BUILDER

Why I built it.

Configuration has a way of multiplying until nobody remembers which variable belongs where. I wanted to trace the evidence, compare environments, and review a cleanup before touching a file.

A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Before the first launch.

Which Mac download should I choose?

Choose Apple Silicon for an M-series Mac, or Intel for an Intel Mac. A universal build supports both. Only the architectures listed below are available. The DMG includes an app you can drag into Applications; the ZIP contains the same app without the disk image.

Is this a finished release?

No. Version 0.1.0 is a development preview. The macOS packages are Developer ID signed and notarized by Apple, with stapled tickets verified before publication. Notarization does not change the app’s development-preview status.

What does this app need?

Inspect local projects, compare environment files, and review changes before applying them. Your configuration stays under your control.

FROM THE SOURCE

Build it on your machine.

The browser workbench opens on port 5173 with labeled demo data. Use npm run desktop for native inspection and reviewed file edits; this requires Rust 1.95 and Tauri prerequisites. Windows and Linux builds still need verification.
