User Handbook - Run on macOS
Current macOS support is still experimental and very reliant on MoltenVK developments, plans have shifted to properly provide support for KosmicKrisp and similar new GPU endeavours, but macOS users still are bound to MoltenVK itself.
Users of macOS may wish to use Asahi Linux for the rising KosmicKrisp support.
As of writing, neither macOS nor Asahi has support for NCE; additionally Asahi has extraneous paging bugs with fastmem.

Why am I Seeing This?
Recent versions of MacOS (Catalina & newer) introduced the Gatekeeper security functionality, requiring software to be signed by Apple or a trusted (aka - paying) developer. If the signature isn’t on the list of trusted ones, it will stop the program from executing and display the message above.
Steps
- Open the System Settings panel.
- Navigate to Privacy & Security.
- Scroll down and observe the following message under the Security settings.
- Select Open Anyway to tell your Mac that you trust the application.
- You will now get another window appearing to verify you want to open Eden. Select Open Anyway.
- You will be prompted for your password to authorize the request. Enter the credentials of an account that has permission to modify settings and press OK.
- Eden will now open and any subsequent launches of the program will not prompt this.
