Where can you find the control panel for xampp in mac? - macos

This seems like a very basic question, but I can't seem to find a straightforward answer online after searching for very long.
I am using xampp, but can't seem to find the control panel.
The only application I have is manager-osx
Is there something missing in my download? Or is there a procedure to run the control panel?
Thank you very much!

Yeah, thanks #Jon's answer helped me out in the end, indirectly.
They should make a cross platform with Electron, it's 2018 already! :).
But you can pick the Manage Servers tab and have similar functionality on MAC:
I find it most annoying that the Xampp manager doesn't have XAMPP in the name, but is vaguely called 'manager-osx'. This way you can't quickly find it through OS X's Spotlight search. The names comes across as a bit of egocentric of the developers thinking they've made only manager application. But yeah; it's freeware...

I looked up the question on the apache forum for mac and it appears there the interface you're looking for is only available on Windows.

MANAGER-OSX LAUNCH THE CONTROL PANEL IN MAC OSX
XAMPP V7.2.0-0
ROUTE: aplications/XAMMP/xampfiles/manager-osx
Please refer to the screenshot below

There is no Control panel as much as Windows. you have to go to the route. usually its Finder > Applications > (find your Xampp Folder) > Expand the folder. that's the current way and its helped me with android studios

How to detect the presence of app in universal Windows plateform

I try to find a way to detect dynamically if an app is installed on a computer inside of another UWP. Is there a way to access user app list or is there a workaround ?
You can use the other app's URI to detect it.
Here's an article I found from 2015 that discusses it.

Let me know if that doesn't work for some reason or if you need newer info, then I do some more digging to provide more info.
All the best!

Ubuntu: How to add Systray notification icon using an ruby app?

I would like to create a ruby app which will install a notification icon in ubuntu systray (just like Skype, DropBox etc).
What would be the exact instructions to accomplish this? Pointers (or links) would be good too, to help me get started. I have no clue when it comes to ubuntu app programming.
I think the answer depends on what desktop you are using. For both gnome and unity, libappindicator seems to work. Maybe this will help you using it in ruby. You might need to configure unity to allow your application to use the systray, though.

How to implement spotlight like search in Windows?

I need to enable the users to do a livesearch of the contents of a folder from my app. On OS X, I can do it by using the Spotlight APIs which have been exposed. Is there a way in which I can do it on Windows? Does Windows Search SDK help me accomplish this? As far as I know, Windows doesn't index the files until the user explicitly gives permission. So does that mean I've to index the files myself? Are there any open source libraries which do this? How can I go about implementing my own library? Too many questions, I know. I appreciate answers to any of them.
Search SDK is good, but can be switched off by user.
Also try Googel Desktop - do the same thing, but also expects user action on installing it.
Ok. I decided to go with CLucene because I found it more reliable, easier to use and to have a much more active community than Windows Search. And of course I can use it on both Windows and Mac.
Take a look at Xapain. CLucene development seems to have stagnated.

Test in (IE8 and previous) on Mac without using Parallels?

Can can anyone tell me if there is a reliable way to test(or simulate) in IE version 8 and previous when on a Mac? (without installing Parallels)
Perhaps some sort of web application or tool?
Old question but might still be useful to someone... I discover that it is possible to test through the develop menu on safari.
Go to develop > user agent and then choose IE8
