Install

  1. Download the .dmg above and open it.
  2. Drag SkillsTech into Applications, then eject the disk image.
  3. Open SkillsTech from Applications (not from the disk image window).
  4. First launch of this early build: right-click the app → Open, then confirm. If macOS still blocks it, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway.
On a corporate network? If skillstech.dev is blocked by your VPN, use the mirror at hub.skillstechtalk.com/ide. The installer downloads from GitHub, which most corporate networks allow. On a managed Mac, have IT approve the app.

Signed and notarized builds are rolling out; until then this early build is unsigned, so the first-open step above is expected.
