I made Parall, a macOS app that can wrap terminal-launched GUI apps into app bundles that behave like normal Mac apps. The shortcut can have its own menu bar icon, its own Dock icon, and optional animated Dock effects.

A practical use case is local development. For example, I can take a Go + Fyne app or a Python GUI app that I normally launch from Terminal, export it as a Parall shortcut, pin it to the Dock, and relaunch the latest code with one click.

It is not meant to replace a full packaging pipeline for distribution. The goal is to make local GUI apps and terminal-driven workflows feel much more natural on macOS.

Happy to answer technical questions about how it works.
