Install
Four steps. One dollar saved.
AnguLite is currently distributed as an unsigned DMG — a one-time setup gets you past macOS Gatekeeper in under a minute.
- 1
Download the DMG
Click the button above to grab AnguLite for Apple Silicon from the public releases page on GitHub.
- 2
Open the DMG and drag AnguLite to Applications
Double-click the downloaded AnguLite.dmg, then drag the AnguLite icon onto the Applications shortcut.

Clear the Gatekeeper quarantine flag
macOS flags unsigned downloads as "damaged" to protect you. We are an indie project without an Apple Developer ID yet, so you need to clear the flag once. Open Terminal and run:
xattr -cr /Applications/AnguLite.app - 4
Launch AnguLite
Open AnguLite from Launchpad or Applications. It should start instantly — under 20 MB, zero cloud calls on launch.
Why does macOS call it "damaged"?
macOS Gatekeeper rejects any app that is not signed with an Apple Developer ID by showing a generic "damaged" warning — even when the app is perfectly fine. Apple Developer ID costs $99/year, and we want AnguLite to be free forever, so we ship unsigned builds for now. The xattr -cr command simply removes the quarantine flag Apple added to the download — no system changes, no admin privileges, reversible by reinstall.
Coming soon: signed builds
Once AnguLite reaches sustainable revenue from wallet top-ups, we will purchase an Apple Developer ID and ship signed builds so this step is no longer needed.
Windows and Linux?
Tauri compiles natively to both, so Windows (MSI/EXE) and Linux (AppImage/DEB) builds are on the roadmap right after the macOS launch. Email hello@angulite.app to be notified when they drop.
