If you're building a .NET application and want it to feel like a native Mac app, MacBundle takes care of the packaging for you. Normally, a .NET app compiled for macOS is just a set of raw files and executables. This tool automatically wraps them into a proper .app bundle, the standard format Mac users expect, complete with an icon, metadata, and a structure that macOS recognizes. You add it to your project as a dependency, and from then on, every time you build or publish your app, the .app bundle appears in your output folder automatically. It only activates when relevant, specifically, when you're targeting macOS or building on a Mac, so it won't interfere with builds for Windows or Linux. You can also force it on or off with a single setting if you need more control. The generated bundle includes all the pieces macOS looks for: a Contents folder structure, an Info.plist file with your app's metadata, and an app icon. You can customize details like the bundle identifier, display name, version string, copyright notice, and icon path through simple project properties. If you only have a Windows .ico icon file, it will even convert it to the Mac .icns format for you. This is useful for any .NET developer shipping a cross-platform app who wants their Mac version to look polished without manually assembling the bundle structure each time. For example, if you're building a desktop app that runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux, you'd normally need to handle Mac packaging as a separate step, this tool folds it directly into your existing build process so there's nothing extra to manage.
