Install Paneflow on macOS

Install Paneflow on macOS 13 Ventura or later with Homebrew or the signed and notarized Apple Silicon DMG.

Install Paneflow on macOS in two minutes. Homebrew is the recommended path; use the signed Apple Silicon .dmg if you prefer a manual install. Paneflow needs macOS 13 Ventura or later and ships for Apple Silicon today. Intel Mac builds are not shipped yet.

The macOS release asset is a signed and notarized .dmg. The bundle inside it is PaneFlow.app, and the executable is PaneFlow.app/Contents/MacOS/paneflow.

How do I install Paneflow with Homebrew?

Install the Paneflow cask from the public tap:

bash
brew install --cask arthurdev44/paneflow/paneflow

Homebrew mounts the DMG, copies PaneFlow.app into Applications, and unmounts the image. If the cask lags a fresh release, use the DMG path below.

How do I install Paneflow from a DMG?

Open the latest GitHub release, download the Apple Silicon asset named paneflow-<version>-aarch64-apple-darwin.dmg, then open it:

bash
open https://github.com/ArthurDEV44/paneflow/releases/latest

Finder mounts the disk image with PaneFlow.app and an Applications symlink. Drag PaneFlow.app onto Applications, then eject the mounted volume.

Launch Paneflow from Spotlight (Cmd+Space, then "PaneFlow") or from Terminal:

bash
open -a PaneFlow

How do I verify the installation?

The app bundle does not automatically put paneflow on your PATH. Verify the installed binary directly:

bash
/Applications/PaneFlow.app/Contents/MacOS/paneflow --version

For CLI access from any terminal, symlink the bundled binary into /usr/local/bin once:

bash
sudo ln -sf /Applications/PaneFlow.app/Contents/MacOS/paneflow /usr/local/bin/paneflow
paneflow --version

What if macOS blocks PaneFlow.app?

The signed and notarized DMG should launch without an unidentified developer warning. If macOS still blocks it, use one of these paths:

  1. In Finder, open Applications, Control-click PaneFlow.app, choose Open, then confirm Open.
  2. In System Settings -> Privacy & Security, find the blocked PaneFlow.app notice and choose Open Anyway.
  3. From Terminal, remove the quarantine attribute:
bash
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/PaneFlow.app

What about Intel Macs?

Paneflow does not ship an Intel macOS DMG today. Use an Apple Silicon Mac, the Linux builds, or the Windows x64 build until the x86_64-apple-darwin release leg reopens.
