you run the launcher on MacOS.

#### Instructions ####
- Download the release to a location of your choice
- Open Finder and navigate to that location
- Unzip the file (usually double clicking on it is enough)
- Right click on the extracted ESLauncher2.app and select "Open"

Please note: sometimes the launcher may open in the background. If you hear the music playing, check in the Dock, you should find it running there.
