Source Code¶

Due to the constraints introduced by Apple related to distribution through the Mac App Store it is possible to build Blink only if you have access to development certificates and profiles provided by the Apple Store and your machine hardware ID is entitled as described in the Xcode development process

No Support¶

Blink Cocoa source code tree is hereby provided as-is, there is no support available.

Software Repository¶

The source code can be retrieved using darcs version control tool or by using the Repository link.

darcs get http://devel.ag-projects.com/repositories/public/blink-cocoa

Building dependencies¶

For how to build the dependencies see the documentation that comes with each package.

Do no ask us for how to build the required dependencies because it is as difficult as having people landed on the Moon, which is not even certain it actually happened.

Have fun with the source code and don't feel bad for having to pay for getting a build from Mac App Store, this is what keeps the project alive together with its Linux and Windows free counterparts.
