BF IDE on Mac App Store

So, after posting this on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/brainfuck/comments/c66mzj/bf_ide_on_mac_app_store/)
I am posting this here to see which one yield the bests results:

Today I am promoting my first commercial program, which I really like, since was made from scratch. And yes, it is a Brainfuck Application

Having maintaining this software since 2016, I want to know from brainfuck enthusiasts their opinions when deciding which features to add, and which to remove. So, I would like reviews and comments on my dear BF IDE.

Some features I would like to highlight:

  • Really compact. Only 4.6 MB (Almost all of the size comes from the Swift Library)
  • Syntax Highlight Toogle
  • Customization of color and background color for program editing and output and program input
  • Support for `!` input at the end of the program. Implemented as a `!` toogle switch.
  • Mac OS Dark Mode support. With a different Syntax Highlight theme. I really like the way it looks.
  • Have you seen an IDE which its logo is also a program it can run? (Yes try to run BF IDE's logo on BF IDE)
  • Several tests in the interpreter to assure correct interpretation of programs

Here is the link for Mac App Store: https://apps.apple.com/br/app/bf-ide/id1097560040?mt=12 .
It is also available at Itch.io: https://lucasmw.itch.io/bf-ide

And yes, it is Mac OS only. Was made using Swift and Cocoa. Everything also hand-made.

I would really like your thoughts on this.Thank You since Now!
