I have been using Laravel Valet since its earlies release, and it’s an excellent tool. The response is snappy, and it’s easy to install and set up.
However, Laravel Valet lacks a GUI, and my lazy mind always forgets the paths for various settings in Valet. Therefore I made a tiny menubar companion app for F-Bar – Valet Assistant.
Valet Assistant is a native app written in Swift and weighs in about 4MB, so it’s tiny and has a low memory footprint. Of course, the app is notarized by Apple, so you will not get any warnings about unsafe software.
Valet Assistant is freeware so enjoy!
