# MacPass
There are a lot of iOS KeePass tools around but a distinct lack of a good native macOS version.
KeePass can be used via Mono on macOS but lacks vital functionality and feels sluggish and simply out of place.
MacPass is an attempt to create a native macOS port of KeePass on a solid open source foundation with a vibrant community pushing it further to become the best KeePass client for macOS.
## Download
All pre-built releases can be found at [Github](https://github.com/MacPass/MacPass/releases).
An unsigned build of the current continuous tag can be found here: [Continuous Build](https://github.com/MacPass/MacPass/releases/tag/continuous)
Due to the nature of the build it might be unstable, however this version contains all the latest changes and bug fixes!
## How to Contribute
If you want to contribute by fixing a bug, adding a feature or improving localization you're awesome!
## How to Build
* Fetch the source of MacPass
```bash
git clone https://github.com/MacPass/MacPass --recursive
```
* Install [Carthage](https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage#installing-carthage)
* Install all Dependencies
```bash
cd MacPass
carthage bootstrap --platform macOS
```
After that you can build and run in Xcode. The following command will build and make the application available through Spotlight. If you run into signing issues take a look at [Issue #92](https://github.com/MacPass/MacPass/issues/92). Since Sparkle is disabled only on the CI build and in Debug mode, you have to explicitly disable it in Release. Otherwise warnings on unsecure updates will appear.
xcodebuild -scheme MacPass -target MacPass -configuration Release CODE_SIGNING_REQUIRED=NO NO_SPARKLE=NO_SPARKLE

## Alternatives
[KeePassX](https://www.keepassx.org) and its fork [KeePassXC](https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc). Qt based cross plattform port.
[KyPass Companion](http://www.kyuran.be/logiciels/kypass4mac/). Native macOS client.
[KeeWeb](https://keeweb.info). Electron based cross plattform port. Since it's browser based you can pretty much run it anywhere.
