Download
Pick the build for your operating system.
Open the installer
Sproutkit isn't yet code-signed by Apple/Microsoft, so first launch needs one extra click.
On Mac
- Open the downloaded
.dmgfile - Drag Sproutkit into your Applications folder
- In Finder, right-click Sproutkit → Open (don't double-click the first time)
- You'll see "Apple cannot verify..." — click Open anyway. After this, double-clicking works as normal.
On Windows
- Run the downloaded
.exeinstaller - Windows SmartScreen may say "Microsoft Defender prevented an unrecognised app". Click More info → Run anyway.
- Choose your install location and click Install
