Install with Homebrew, plus documentation in English.

brew tap peter46jan/dopamine
brew install dopamine-code
ln -sfn "$(brew --prefix)/opt/dopamine-code/Dopamine Code.app" /Applications/

That builds from source rather than downloading a binary, on purpose: Homebrew puts the
quarantine attribute on anything it downloads, so an app that is not notarised by Apple gets
blocked by Gatekeeper. A locally compiled one never is — no warning, no Apple Developer
account in the chain.

Changes

  • Homebrew tappeter46jan/homebrew-dopamine.
    A formula, not a cask, for the reason above.
  • build.sh accepts DOPAMINE_VERSION — a release tarball has no .git, so
    git describe fails there and the app would have called itself 0.0.0. Homebrew now
    passes the version in.
  • README is English first, with the full Dutch text below it.
  • Why root is needed is now the first section of the README, with the sudoers rule spelled
    out literally, instead of being buried 470 lines down.

Nothing changed in how the app works. If you are on 1.0.0 there is no reason to hurry.
