Installation questions

Should I download the app or use the command?: Download the app if you just want to make videos. It is signed and notarized by Apple, so it opens without warnings, and it updates itself. Use the command if you also want the rm- command-line tools, or if your Mac has an Intel chip.
How do I open a terminal?: On a Mac, press ⌘ + Space, type “Terminal”, and hit enter. Paste the command in, press enter, and follow the prompts. That’s the only terminal step.
Is it safe to paste a command into my terminal?: Yes. The command downloads the installer and runs it — nothing is hidden. You can read the script before running it, and the whole source is public on GitHub. It checks before every step, so running it twice only does what the first run could not.
Which computers does it work on?: The downloaded app needs a Mac with Apple Silicon and macOS 15 or later. The command works on Apple Silicon and Intel. There is no Windows version.
Do I need to know how to code?: No. The command is the only terminal step. After that the Studio is a normal app in your browser: record, cut, add scenes, and export.
What do I need before I start?: Just the command and a few minutes. The Studio asks you to sign in with GitHub, and asks for the keys that voice and AI features need only when you use them.
The command gave me an error — what now?: Copy the error message and open an issue, or drop it in #studio. That is how we catch install bugs early.
