Getting Started

Installation

LakshX ships as a native app for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Grab the installer for your platform from the download button and follow the first-launch note below.

Download

Head to the download section on the home page. LakshX detects your operating system and offers the right build:

  • macOS (Apple Silicon) — a .dmg installer. Open it and drag LakshX into Applications.
  • Windows — a Setup.exe installer.
  • Linux — a .tar.gz archive (a .deb is produced by the release build).

macOS Intel

LakshX currently ships an Apple Silicon build. Intel (x64) is not in the release matrix yet, so the Intel option shows as “coming soon” rather than a broken link.

First launch on macOS

LakshX isn’t Apple-notarized yet, so macOS may say the app “is damaged and can’t be opened.” This is a false alarm, not a broken download. Clear the quarantine flag once:

bash
xattr -cr /Applications/LakshX.app

Or right-click LakshX in Applications and choose Open instead of double-clicking.

First launch on Windows

LakshX isn’t a Microsoft-verified publisher yet, so Windows SmartScreen may show “Windows protected your PC.” Click More info, then Run anyway.

Prefer to build it yourself?

You can produce a signed-to-yourself native installer from source with a single command. See Building from Source.
