Installing refern
Windows
Run the .exe installer. If Windows shows a SmartScreen warning (the app is new and not yet widely downloaded), click More info → Run anyway.
macOS
Open the .dmg and drag refern into Applications. The first time you open it, right-click (or Control-click) the app → Open → Open. If macOS says the app is "damaged", run xattr -cr /Applications/refern.app in Terminal, then reopen.
Linux
Mark the AppImage executable: right-click → Properties → allow executing, or run chmod +x refern-1.0.0-anylinux-x86_64.AppImage then launch it.
