# Run Libation on MacOS
This walkthrough should get you up and running with Libation on your Mac.
## Install Libation
- Download the `Libation.app.x.x.x.tar.gz` file from the latest release and extract it.
- Move the extracted Libation app bundle to your applications folder.
- Open a terminal (Go > Utilities > Terminal)
- In the terminal type the following commands
- `sudo spctl --add --label "Libation" /Applications/Libation.app` (you'll be prompted to enter your password.)
- `sudo spctl --master-disable`
- Keep the terminal open and run the Libation app
- Go back to terminal and type the following command
- `sudo spctl --master-enable`
- Close the terminal
Libation is now registered with gatekeeper and will run even when gatekeeper is turned back on.
## Running Hangover
Libation comes with a recovery app called Hangover. You can start it by running this command:
```Console
open /Applications/Libation.app --args hangover
```
## Runnign LibationCli
Libation comes with a command-line interface. Unfortunately, due to the way apps are sandboxed on mac, its use is somewhat limited. To open a new sandboxed terminal in LibationCli's directory, run the following command:
```Console
open /Applications/Libation.app --args cli
```
To use LibationCli from an unsandboxed terminal, you must disable gatekeeper again and run the program directly at `/Applications/Libation.app/Contents/MacOS/LibationCli`
