I was just thinking about this, and, while there may be others, Apache isn't that well known for it's "desktop" software. However, there's Apache DS Studio. Here's a link to their download page. https://directory.apache.org/studio/download/download-macosx.html I mentioned this simply to show that others are doing it within the Apache eco-system, so we should be able to also.
