Requires macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later.

Note: The app is not signed with an Apple Developer certificate. As a student, I can't afford the $99/year fee. macOS will ask you to allow the app on first launch (System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway). The entire source code is available here for review.

git clone git@github.com:jeremy-prt/orby.git
cd orby
bash build-app.sh

Requires macOS 15+ and Swift 6.2.
