Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I built Kestrix Pack because I was tired of two things: paid Mac archive tools with feature gating, and remembering 7-Zip command-line flags just to open a .rar file. macOS ships with Archive Utility, but it can't handle rar, 7z, iso, or half the formats I actually needed. Every other option was either paid, bloated, or asked for permissions I didn't want to give. So I wrapped the official 7-Zip command-line core (7zz) in a native Tauri interface. Same battle-tested engine, no flags to memorize, no paid tier. What it does: • Extracts 24 formats — 7z, rar, zip, tar, iso, dmg, and more — plus tar.gz, tar.bz2, and tar.xz • Creates 6 formats with AES-256 encryption • Three-language interface (English / 简体中文 / 繁體中文) • Built-in file manager — no more bouncing between Finder and the app • Finder right-click integration for the common actions It's completely free, no ads, no in-app purchases. The only network activity is an optional anonymous ping (at most once a day), and you can turn it off. If you're on Apple Silicon and need a lightweight archive tool, I'd love your feedback. Ask me anything!
