Acknowledgements
CleanSlateX is built with the help of the following open-source projects and technologies. We are grateful to the developers and communities behind them.
Built With
- Swift & SwiftUI — Apple's native frameworks for macOS development
- AppKit — System-level macOS APIs for window management and native controls
- Combine — Reactive data binding and asynchronous event handling
- CryptoKit — SHA-256 hashing for duplicate file detection and integrity verification
- Swift Charts — Native chart rendering for statistics and disk usage visualization
- StoreKit 2 — In-app purchases for Mac App Store distribution
- Security Framework — Keychain storage for secure credential management and certificate pinning
- IOKit — Hardware identification for device-based licensing
- ServiceManagement — Privileged helper installation for system-level cleanup tasks
- os (Unified Logging) — Structured logging across all app services
CleanSlateX uses zero third-party dependencies — it is built entirely on Apple's native frameworks. The above acknowledges technologies used in development, not a claim of open-source licensing for CleanSlateX itself.
