The macOS build of Helmsman is signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple, which is why Gatekeeper opens it on first launch without a warning. You do not have to take this page's word for any of that. The commands below check the signature and notarization on macOS, and hash your download, from your own computer.
Check the signature and notarization on macOS
Run this against the app in your Applications folder:
spctl -a -vv /Applications/Helmsman.appYou should see:
/Applications/Helmsman.app: accepted
source=Notarized Developer ID accepted means Gatekeeper trusts the app, and
source=Notarized Developer ID confirms Apple notarized this exact build under
Helmsman's Developer ID. Together they prove the app is the one we signed and Apple cleared,
not something altered on its way to you.
Check the download integrity
From the folder where the file landed, hash it:
macOS
shasum -a 256 Helmsman-0.15.0-beta.1.dmgThe result should match this value exactly:
5a7b811a4df298ee9007ed6efb66c1931b1b5902bed748aedb1f1fa8679a6e38 Helmsman-0.15.0-beta.1.dmgWindows
Coming soon. The download page offers no Windows build right now.
Linux
Coming soon. The download page offers no Linux build right now.
If the hash matches, the file you downloaded is byte for byte the one we published. Every value
on this page is computed from the exact build we ship and is refreshed with each release, so it
always describes the current version, v0.15.0-beta.1.
The current build's version, size, and system requirements live on the download page.
