It's plug-and-play, with no kernel extension or messing with system security settings required.\n\nmacOS 15.6 or later is required.\n\n## Download\n\nYou can either download the latest version from the [releases page](https://github.com/kthchew/ExtendFS/releases) on GitHub for free, or [purchase it from the Mac App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/extendfs-for-linux-filesystems/id6755664332).
