# @boardname@ uploader for OS X  This project is a clone of the [Windows uploader](https://makecode.microbit.org/uploader), but for OS X. Once launched, the app runs in your menu bar and will automatically deploy any HEX files to your `@boardname@`. Like the Windows version, it is compatible with any browser that can run @homeurl@. ## Install the built version 1. Download the latest `.zip` release from the `Release` directory 2. Unzip it 3. Drag `Microbit Uploader` to your Applications folder and launch it ## Building To build the project you'll need a copy of OS X 10.11 or higher and Xcode 8 or higher (you may be able to build on earlier OSes or versions of Xcode, but this remains untested). Once you have a development environment set up, just build and run `Microbit Uploader.xcodeproj`. ## Distributing 1. Open the Xcode project 2. Product > Archive 3. Export:  4. You will then have the option of either signing or not-signing the application: a) If you have an Apple developer account, select 'Export a Developer ID-signed Application' b) If you don't have a developer ID, select 'Export as a macOS App' 5. Zip the produced app and upload to CDN or equivalent
