Why Yet Another Clipboard Manager
There are dozens of similar applications out there, so why build another? Over the past years since I moved from Linux to macOS, I struggled to find a clipboard manager that is as free and simple as Parcellite, but I couldn't. So I've decided to build one.
Also, I wanted to learn Swift and get acquainted with macOS application development.
