If you're all about fancy features and GUI settings, go for `OpenInTerminal`. But if you just want to open your terminal quickly and without fuss, `OpenInTerminal-Lite` is your buddy. I personally prefer `OpenInTerminal-Lite`. Why? It's a one-click wonder (while the other makes you click twice 😂) and it's more lightweight. Check **OpenInTerminal-Lite** Docs: [English](./Resources/README-Lite.md) | [中文](./Resources/README-Lite-zh.md) | [Deutsch](./Resources/README-Lite-de.md) ## Installation 🖥 > ⚠️ **Important:** Signed builds are no longer provided for **OpenInTerminal**, **OpenInTerminal-Lite**, or **OpenInEditor-Lite**. Before using these apps, please either trust the unsigned binaries or sign them yourself. See the [Configuration](./Resources/README-Config.md) document for how to install and trust unsigned apps. ``` brew install --cask openinterminal ``` Or manually download it from [release](https://github.com/Ji4n1ng/OpenInTerminal/releases). ## Configuration and FAQ ⚙️ Please check the [Configuration](./Resources/README-Config.md) document. Note: If you're on macOS 15 and above then you must follow the instructions in this document to make the context menu items appear. ## Support ❤️ Open-source projects cannot live long without your help.
