## What is it?

**_Make your MacBook's battery condition last longer!_**

`Macarer` is a script created with the purpose of optimizing the battery state of MacBook.

Monitor MacBook's battery status and battery life to prevent overcharged and undercharged conditions.</br>
If `Macarer` detects an overcharge and undercharge condition, it uses the `LINE Notify API` to send a notification to the LINE room associated with the specified token.

## Benefits

- Theoretically make the battery condition of the MacBook last longer

- Easy and intuitive configuration and operation

- Receive notifications on [LINE](https://line.me/en-US/)

- Schedule monitoring using **_cron_**

```sh
export LINE_NOTIFY_TOKEN_FOR_MACARER=0123456789abcdefghijk
