Historique du projet

The author created Battery as a holiday side project after finding AlDente's license too restrictive for the desired power-user workflow. It began as a command-line replacement; a colleague's request prompted the addition of an Electron GUI.

Historique d'adoption

The project is distributed as both a macOS GUI and a command-line utility and supports Homebrew installation. Its public GitHub repository has attracted thousands of stars and hundreds of forks, indicating substantial interest among Apple Silicon power users.

Modes d'utilisation

The GUI maintains an 80% charge target by default and installs the battery CLI. CLI users can maintain a fixed percentage or range, enable or disable charging and adapter input, charge or discharge to a target, inspect status, calibrate the battery, and update or uninstall the utility.

Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

Battery is a package-manager-friendly alternative to proprietary charge-limit applications: it is free, open source, scriptable, and installable through Homebrew. Its GUI installs the CLI automatically, allowing interactive menu-bar use and shell automation to share the same underlying controls.

Chronologie
