How does one get started with epichrome?

Sorry for missing the obvious, but how do I install epichrome and get started. I read the Readme a few times and didn't see any explanation.

Start by downloading the installer (DMG) here:
https://github.com/dmarmor/epichrome/releases

After you run the installer, you can use the Epichrome app to create site-specific browsers of your favorite websites. Let's say you want to make an Epichrome application for your Gmail:

1. Run the Epichrome app.

2. You'll be prompted to name your new app. In this example, you'd choose something like "Gmail App".

3. Then, choose what name you want to show in the Menu bar, such as "Gmail".

4. Next, decide whether you'll want to see normal browser tabs or have a sleek, simple app window. I like "App Window".

5. Tell Epichrome what URL to use. In this case, it's something like "https://www.google.com/mail/"

6. Decide whether to register the app as a browser (the default "No" is fine.)

7. Provide a custom icon (this looks nice!). You can find icons (.icns file format) by image searching the web, or by converting an existing image (png/jpg/...). For instance, there's a free online tool that can do this here: https://iconverticons.com/online/

8. click "Create" and then either "Launch" to test your new app, or click "Reveal in Finder" to confirm where the app has been saved. You may wish to add it to your dock, etc.

That's it!
