Simple macos application for preventing other apps from launching/opening

  • Single button toggles on/off
  • App uses Cocoa's NSWorkspaceWillLaunchApplicationNotification from NSWorkspace for getting info on launched applications in userspace. It only works for applications having "LSUIElement" = true so those are not appearing in Dock.
  • Does not require admin priveleges
  • Uses POSIX API to terminate applications.

Project created with Xcode 7 and build with Xcode 11.5. Tested on mac versions 10.11-10.15
