Sproutkit runs comfortably on most computers from the last 5 years. Here's what we've tested.

macOS

OS
macOS 11 (Big Sur) or later
Chip
Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4)
RAM
4 GB minimum, 8 GB recommended
Disk
300 MB free space
Network
Internet connection required

Windows

OS
Windows 10 (1809+) or Windows 11
Chip
64-bit Intel / AMD processor
RAM
4 GB minimum, 8 GB recommended
Disk

Note: an Intel Mac build is on the roadmap. If you're on a pre-Apple-Silicon Mac, email hello@sproutkit.app.

1

Download

Pick the build for your operating system.

2

Open the installer

Sproutkit isn't yet code-signed by Apple/Microsoft, so first launch needs one extra click.

On Mac

  1. Open the downloaded .dmg file
  2. Drag Sproutkit into your Applications folder
  3. In Finder, right-click Sproutkit → Open (don't double-click the first time)
  4. You'll see "Apple cannot verify..." — click Open anyway. After this, double-clicking works as normal.

On Windows

  1. Run the downloaded .exe installer
  2. Windows SmartScreen may say "Microsoft Defender prevented an unrecognised app". Click More info → Run anyway.
  3. Choose your install location and click Install
These warnings appear because we're a small startup and signing certificates cost hundreds of dollars per year. The app is safe — it's open about exactly which APIs it calls, and you supply your own keys. Code-signing is on the roadmap.
