Manfath
See every port. Kill what you don't need. Share the rest.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Mohammad, maker of Manfath (منفذ — Arabic for "port").
This started from a small daily annoyance: I'd lose track of what was actually running on my Mac. Was it :3000 from yesterday's Next.js app? Did I forget to kill that Postgres container? Why is :8080 taken? My workflow became a loop of lsof -i :PORT and kill -9 — fast, but ugly and easy to fumble.
I wanted something that just showed me every port, every process, in one place and let me kill or share any of them in one click.
So I built Manfath. It lives in your menu bar and:
🔍 Scans every listening port every 3 seconds, zero config
⚡ One click to open localhost:PORT in your browser
💀 One click to kill a stuck process — no more hunting PIDs
🌐 One click to expose any port via a public tunnel (cloudflared, ngrok)
🕊️ Runs entirely on your machine. No accounts, no telemetry, no cloud.
It's free and open source (MIT). I built it for myself first, but every dev I've shown it to (3 in total) has asked for the link, so here we are.
The whole app is bilingual EN/AR from day one — small thing, but Arabic-speaking devs deserve native tools too, and the name منفذ literally means "port," which felt right.
Would love your feedback, especially on:
- What's missing for your stack?
- Which tunnel providers should I add next?
- Bugs, edge cases, weird port behaviors I haven't seen.
Roadmap is open on GitHub — issues and PRs very welcome. Happy to answer anything in the comments 🙏
