This feels like a caricature of Mac users. I mean, I like solid GUIs for graphical-friendly tasks. But launchd already exists and this doesn't even use that.

Launchd is a pain in the ass. And a poorly documented one at that. When they changed how it worked in a fundamental way somewhat recently (Yosemite I think) they couldn't even be assed to update their online documentation.

I wouldn't mind if this used launchd under the hood though.
