In case of emergency (reinstall) this is a reminder to myself of what should i download afterwards (free and legal!
). In other words – this is a list with free and/or opensource applications for MacOS X that might become (or already are) handy for any web developer that works with the best (no offence, no flame) computing device ever – Apple Mac. If you have any hints for apps that are missing here, please correct me.
- VirtualBox
OpenSource project for virtual operating systems. For testing IE7/8/9 (what else a person need windows for) - Transmission
T0rrents on Mac. Better than tomato torrent, allows to select individual files from torrent, the best so far - Eclipse
Powerful IDE. - SmartSVN
Powerful, cross-platform Subversion client. - Java 2 SE 5.0 Release 1
IF you still [for some weird reason] haven’t upgraded to Snow Leopard. - Skype for Mac beta
And feels like one. - TextWrangler
The best PHP editor for MAC. Was. Before last update. - Sequel Pro
Best free mysql GUI client for mac. If only they offered MySQL dump in button and not File->Export
. - Teamviewer
Better than vnc. - Filezilla
Cyberduck is lame and slow. Filezilla is lame ans slow too, but at least it’s more reliable. - OneButton FTP client
Could be the best FTP client for Mac in the world if only wasn’t “no longer supported”. - Burn
Sleak and simple. I still don’t get it – why cd/dvd burner must be located in Applications->utilities as DiskUtility and not in Applications as “CD/DVD burner”. - Inkscape
An Open Source vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Illustrator, CorelDraw, or Xara X, using the W3C standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format. - NeoOffice
Don’t punch me but i like it more than OpenOffice. Still not as good as iLife. - Handbrake
HandBrake is an open-source, GPL-licensed, multiplatform, multithreaded video transcoder, available for MacOS X. - Flip4Mac
Windows Media® Components for QuickTime, by Flip4Mac™, you can play Windows Media files (.wma and .wmv) directly in QuickTime Player and view Windows Media content on the Internet using a Web browser.) - Perian
Divx/xvid movie decoder for Mac - VLC
I don’t need that one since Snow Leopard’s Quicktime upgrade and Perian. - KinoGaisma (Cinema Lights)
Neat tool to turn off any of two monitors if you have more than one. PC users dont understand that, but there is such great device as iMac where you cant turn off monitor because there is no such standalone device. So if you have a second monitor (or lcd, plasma, led, crt tv) and want to shade the main screen, just launch this great tool. - Spotify

Another software that is not free and Open-Source, but still a must in my job, is Parallels Desktop. And i also warmly advise to get Panic Coda since i tried like 100 different PHP text editors and that one just happened to be the best. Ya, it costs 100$, but is worth every dime.
