Install and first DMG launch

Download from the site, open the DMG, work around Gatekeeper if needed, launch the app.

  1. Open the download page and get the DMG.
  2. Open the image and drag MacFullStack.app into Applications (or run from the image to try it).
  3. On first launch macOS may ask for network / file access — allow it so vhosts and /etc/hosts work.

Gatekeeper

If the system says the app “couldn’t be verified” or is from an “unidentified developer”:

  1. System Settings → Privacy & Security — allow opening
  2. Or: right-click the app → Open → confirm
  3. Make sure you downloaded the DMG from macfullstack.ru / the official Download page

After notarization/signing of official builds the warning usually disappears.
