Ask HN: I'm developing a desktop app for local WP dev and deployment. Thoughts?

Note: This is an x-post from Reddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/webdev/comments/4kumnu/im_in_the_middle_of_developing_a_desktop. Trying to get multiple opinions and feedback. Thanks!

I'm trying to gauge interest. The app will likely be around $20-$30 and it will allow you to create local development sites via Vagrant with a click of a button, as well as deploy projects over SSH using Capistrano with a single click.

Would any of you guys be interested in an app like this? We're getting close to finished and will be having a closed beta. Would anybody be interested in joining the beta period?

The app is essentially a GUI for the tj command line utility (https://github.com/ezekg/theme-juice-cli). I wanted to do an app because I know a lot of people aren't comfortable with the command line and would benefit from the features tj offers.

Anyways, I'd love to hear your thoughts and if you'd be interested in joining the beta in a few weeks. You can just message me your email address if you are.
