yamlfred 0.3.3

manage Alfred workflow via yaml templates

The Alfred Workflows management tool with a divide and rule manner.

Alfred Workflows contains README and scripts in single info.plist, and it’s hard to maintain by common development methods, edit script with your favorite editor or track script changes with VCS.

yamlfred translate info.plist and generates files, simplified configuration, called workflow.yml, scripts and README.
