### How to run on Mac / Linux #### Quick start 1. Open Terminal and navigate to the project folder (or right-click the folder and select "Open in Terminal"). 2. Make the script executable (only needed once): ``` chmod +x run_Mac.sh ``` 3. Run it: ``` ./run_Mac.sh ``` This will automatically: - Create a virtual environment (`.venv`) - Install all dependencies (no admin rights needed) - Launch the app #### Manual steps (alternative) If you prefer to do it manually: ``` python3 -m venv .venv .venv/bin/python install.py .venv/bin/python app.py ``` #### Notes - **Python 3.10+** is required. macOS users can install it from [python.org](https://www.python.org/downloads/) or via `brew install python`. - **No FFmpeg install needed** — audio decoding is bundled. - **GPU acceleration** is not available on macOS (Apple Silicon MPS is not supported by CTranslate2). CPU with int8 quantization is still fast. - On Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4), the `small` or `base` models run well. `medium` works but is slower.
