How do I build kitty.app on macOS?
----------------------------------------
Install `imagemagick`, `optipng` and `librsvg` using `brew` or similar (needed
for the logo generation step). And run::
make app
This :file:`kitty.app` unlike the released one does not include its own copy of
python and the other dependencies. So if you ever un-install/upgrade those dependencies
you might have to rebuild the app.
Note that the released :file:`kitty.dmg` includes all dependencies, unlike the
:file:`kitty.app` built above and is built automatically by using the :file:`kitty` branch of
`build-calibre <https://github.com/kovidgoyal/build-calibre>`_ however, that
is designed to run on Linux and is not for the faint of heart.
