Frink

Frink is a cool tool that helps you do all sorts of calculations and conversions between different measurement units. The best part? You don't have to struggle with a confusing user interface. It even has its own programming language but doesn't hog your computer's resources!

Getting Started with Frink

This app runs on Java, so make sure you have the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed on your Mac before launching Frink.

User-Friendly Interface

You'll find all of Frink's features in a neat little window divided into two parts: at the bottom, you can type in what you want to calculate, and right above it, you'll see the results pop up.
