## Installing on macOS
The CI system builds the package on macOS Big Sur and should run on systems as
"old" as Mojave. It may run on earlier versions of macOS, but that has not
been tested.
Starting with version 20210203-095643-70a364eb, WezTerm is a Universal binary
with support for both Apple Silicon and Intel hardware.

## Homebrew
WezTerm is available for [brew](https://brew.sh/) users in a tap:
```bash
$ brew tap wez/wezterm
$ brew install --cask wez/wezterm/wezterm
```
If you'd like to use a nightly build:
```bash
$ brew install --cask wez/wezterm/wezterm-nightly
```
to upgrade to a newer nightly (normal `brew upgrade` will not upgrade it!):
```bash
$ brew upgrade --cask wezterm-nightly --no-quarantine --greedy-latest
```
## MacPorts
WezTerm is also available via [MacPorts](https://ports.macports.org/port/wezterm/summary):
```bash
$ sudo port selfupdate
$ sudo port install wezterm
```
