Install Tolaria

Tolaria publishes desktop builds for macOS, Windows, and Linux. macOS is the primary day-to-day development target, with Windows and Linux builds supported through the release pipeline and fixed as platform issues are found.

Download

Use the latest stable release unless you are intentionally testing pre-release builds:

Homebrew

On macOS you can install the cask:

bash
brew install --cask tolaria

Platform Status

PlatformStatusNotes
macOSPrimaryApple Silicon and Intel builds are published. Homebrew is available.
WindowsSupported, earlyNSIS installers and updater bundles are Tauri-signed. Authenticode publisher signing will be added after Windows certificate provisioning; company-managed SmartScreen, Defender, or WDAC policies can still require IT approval before install.
LinuxSupported, earlyAppImage, deb, and RPM artifacts are published. Desktop behavior depends on distribution WebKitGTK and input-method integration.

See Supported Platforms for the current support policy.

Managed Windows Devices

Do not disable SmartScreen or Windows Security to install Tolaria. On a managed Windows device, install Tolaria through your normal software approval path if policy blocks unsigned or unknown-publisher installers. After Authenticode provisioning is complete, validate that the downloaded installer has a valid Tolaria publisher signature before installing.

After Installing

  1. Open Tolaria.
  2. Choose the Getting Started vault if you want a guided sample.
  3. Or open an existing folder of Markdown files as a vault.
  4. Use the command palette with Cmd+K on macOS or Ctrl+K on Linux and Windows.

Free and open source. Local-first, Git-first, and Markdown-based.
