Can you confirm that as of right now the only way to run the app on MacOS is by building it from source?
It would be great to have an Homebrew package of the app.

Thanks a lot!

Hi! I consider the current state pre-alpha, and I'm not sure if a consumer packing is appropriate at this point. We also have the Mac/Win/Linux artifacts built using GitHub Actions, this should have a link from the readme.

I'm trying me feet at a homebrew cask for psst.

You can see it at https://github.com/weltonrodrigo/homebrew-cask/blob/master/Casks/psst.rb

I can see you have been discussing this subject and here is why I think you should embrace this formula:

People are already using your software in the nightly built version
Download link for that version is already prominent in this GitHub repo
This homebrew only automates that process and makes it much easier and happier

I agree with you that a nightly build version can tarnish Psst reputation, but given that people is already using it and it's the only binary you provide right now, this risk is already been taken.

As a suggestion, I believe you can mitigate that risk by creating a stable branch and using the same service to generate a downloadable stable version. I can change the formula to use that instead.

I'm already using this formula and you know what? Psst is just fucking great! Now I can use my computer while also listening to Spotify without that ugly electron sucking all my RAM.

If you want to use this formula too, you can just:

brew install --no-quarantine weltonrodrigo/homebrew-cask/psst

If you give me the green light, I can submit my formula to the main homebrew repo, or, If you prefer, you can do it yourself.

ITWOULDBENICEs:

If you agree with this formula, it would be nice to have a versioned link to download the binary. That way, brew can detect and periodically upgrade to new versions.
It would be nice to have a (complete) list of files and directories to delete when uninstalling Psst.
It would be really nice to have a signed binary.

I used
brew install --no-quarantine weltonrodrigo/homebrew-cask/psst
as I could not. find an apple silicon / arm build and I got it running in seconds.

Thanks a lot!
