================
You can install novelWriter with both its Python and library dependencies embedded using the
DMG application image file from the `main website`_, or from the Releases_ page on GitHub.
Installing it should be straightforward.
Download the DMG file and open it. Then drag the novelWriter icon to the Applications folder on
the right. This will install it into your Applications. The first time you try to launch it, it will
say that the bundle cannot be verified, simply press the “open” button to add an exception.
If you are not presented with an "open" button in the dialog launch the application again by
right clicking on the application in Finder and selecting "Open" from the context menu.
The context menu can also be accessed by option clicking if you have a one button mouse.
This is done by holding down the option key on your keyboard and clicking on the application in Finder.
