      <h2>What you get</h2>
      <ul class="feature-list">
        <li>
          <strong>14,000+ apps and CLI tools</strong>
          <p>Anything Homebrew can install, installable from one screen. Tick what you want, get one command.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
          <strong>Curated presets</strong>
          <p>Ready-made bundles for new Macs, developers, creatives, and students — one click, one command.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
          <strong>1,000+ fonts</strong>
          <p>JetBrains Mono, Inter, Fira Code, and the rest of the Homebrew font tap — same one-command flow.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
          <strong>Resilient install</strong>
          <p>Installs Homebrew if missing. Each app is installed individually, so one failure doesn't abort the rest — failures are reported at the end.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
          <strong>Done report</strong>
          <p>When the run finishes you get a summary: how many apps installed, how long it took, and how many manual clicks you skipped.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
          <strong>Share links</strong>
          <p>Any selection can be turned into a share URL so teammates land on the same picks pre-ticked.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
          <strong>Free and open source</strong>
          <p>Pure static site, no accounts, no tracking. Source on GitHub.</p>
        </li>
