Download the latest release for your platform from Releases.

• macOS: .dmg (Intel & Apple Silicon)
• Windows: .exe installer
• Linux: .AppImage, .deb, or .tar.gz (Arch)

Since the app isn't notarized with Apple yet, macOS Gatekeeper may show a warning. To fix:

Option 1: Terminal command

xattr -cr /Applications/data-peek.app

Option 2: Right-click to open

1. Right-click (or Control+click) on data-peek.app
2. Select "Open" from the menu
3. Click "Open" in the dialog

This only needs to be done once. Proper code signing is coming soon!

Auto-updates only work with the AppImage format. If you installed via .deb or .tar.gz, you'll need to manually download new releases from the Releases page.

For the best experience with automatic updates, we recommend using the AppImage.

# Clone the repository

If you get errors about Electron not being found after pnpm install:

# Option 1: Run the setup script
pnpm setup:electron

# Option 2: Rebuild native modules
pnpm rebuild

# Option 3: Clean install (nuclear option)
pnpm clean:install

This can happen when pnpm's cache skips Electron's postinstall script that downloads platform-specific binaries.
