@github-actions github-actions released this 09 Jun 06:17

First time installing?

Huginn is an open-source personal project and isn't code-signed. Windows SmartScreen and macOS Gatekeeper will both show a warning on first install — that's expected. Code-signing certificates cost real money and aren't worth it for a free personal tool. The source is public on this repo; you can read it.

Windows

  1. Download Huginn-win-Setup.exe below.
  2. Run it. SmartScreen will warn that the app is from an unknown publisher.
  3. Click More info, then Run anyway.

macOS

  1. Download the .pkg for your Mac: Huginn-osx-arm64-Setup.pkg (Apple Silicon — M1/M2/M3/M4) or Huginn-osx-x64-Setup.pkg (Intel). Not sure? Apple menu → About This Mac → the Chip/Processor line.
  2. Open it. macOS will block it because it isn't signed — that's expected. In the warning, click Done (or Cancel) — not "Move to Trash", which deletes the installer you just downloaded.
  3. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to the Security section, and click Open Anyway next to the note about Huginn being blocked. Authenticate, confirm Open, then follow the installer.

Once installed, future updates download and apply themselves the next time you launch the app — you don't need to repeat any of this.


What's new

  • First stable release. Velopack auto-update is now wired end-to-end: the app polls GitHub Releases every 30 minutes, downloads new versions in the background, and applies them on next launch. The toolbar "Update available" button is a one-click install-and-restart that shuts Avalonia down gracefully so settings persist across the patch.
  • Retired the legacy update check that compared the embedded build timestamp against the ADO repo's latest commit — Velopack replaces it entirely.
