About the project

MacRAR is a native macOS archive manager in AppKit, built on 7-Zip's 7zz and optionally RARLAB's rar, that opens, extracts and creates RAR, 7z, ZIP and 30+ other archive formats.

Useful for
  • Extract a multi-volume or encrypted RAR/7z archive from Finder's right-click menu
  • Create a password-protected 7z or ZIP with AES-256 without leaving the desktop
  • Browse inside an ISO, DEB or DMG and pull out individual files

0.5 Cooling Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 14, 2026, 02:14 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

03060October 9, 2026October 14, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-14 (UTC), 00:37–02:11: 89 → 89 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
  • The repository is 5 days old and already has 89 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #200.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
