Getting started
Download and install Editor
Choose the right installer for macOS, Windows, or Linux, and understand first-launch prompts.
Choose your installer#
Open Downloads on this site. Version 0.2.0 is available for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, 64-bit Windows PCs, and x86-64 Linux systems. The buttons download release files directly; you do not need a GitHub account.
macOS#
- Open Apple menu → About This Mac. A chip named Apple M1, M2, or later uses the Apple Silicon download. A processor named Intel uses the Intel download.
- Open the downloaded DMG and copy Editor to Applications.
- Launch Editor from Applications.
This community build is not notarized with an Apple developer signing certificate. If macOS blocks it, verify that you downloaded it from this site's download button, then review the app-specific approval in System Settings → Privacy & Security. Do not disable system-wide security protections. On managed computers, ask your administrator.
If you already use Homebrew, the package command is:
brew install --cask koughen/editor/editor
Windows#
Use the EXE for a normal interactive installation. The MSI is an alternative installer for deployment workflows. Both target 64-bit Windows. The release does not have an Authenticode signing certificate, so Windows may show a publisher warning. Review the file source before deciding whether to allow it. Managed-device policies may require an administrator.
With Scoop installed, add the package bucket and install:
scoop bucket add koughen https://github.com/koughen/scoop-editor
scoop install koughen/editor
Linux#
Choose AppImage for a standalone launch, DEB for Debian/Ubuntu, or RPM for distributions using RPM packages. For AppImage, allow execution in the file's permissions, or run:
chmod +x Editor_0.2.0_amd64.AppImage
./Editor_0.2.0_amd64.AppImageInstall a DEB or RPM with your distribution's package installer so dependencies can be resolved. Graphics and codec availability depend on your distribution, drivers, and webview runtime.
Update and keep your work#
Keep your original source media and important exports backed up before updating. Download a newer installer for the same platform when one is available. Review release notes for changes; local project storage is not a cloud backup.
