There are standalone executable files for Mac, Windows and Ubuntu. A single file is all you need to run the command line interface (CLI) Meshtastic tool. There is a zip file per operating system. To use, see the operating system specific notes below:
<Tabs

</TabItem>
<TabItem value="macos">
* Download meshtastic_mac.zip
* Unzip.
* Run: "chmod +x meshtastic"
* Try to run it: "./meshtastic". You may get a dialog that says:
"meshtastic" can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software.
* To fix, go into "System Preferences", "Security & Privacy", "General" tab, and click on the "Allow Anyway" button.
* Try to run it again: "./meshtastic". You may get a dialog that says:
"meshtastic" can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software.
Click "Open".
