- Unzip the download and move MCAT.app into your Applications folder.
- Open it. macOS will refuse and warn you the app is from an unidentified developer — this is expected. MCAT is research software distributed outside the App Store, so it isn’t signed by Apple.
- Open System Settings → Privacy & Security and scroll to the Security section at the bottom. You’ll see a note that MCAT was blocked; click Open Anyway and enter your password.
Linux and Windows support is coming. In the meantime, you can build from source by following the build section on GitHub.
