- Using binary release is recommended. MacVim will automatically check for updates and prompt for installation.
- Use Homebrew. Download it and do
brew install macvim
in a terminal.
- Build yourself: See Building for how to build MacVim yourself.
-
Other package managers: See
for other package managers that could be used to install MacVim.
-
Nightly builds: If you would like a build of the latest development version, visit
, select the newest run, and download MacVim.dmg from it (you need to be logged in to GitHub).
-
Note: This version of MacVim is not signed/notarized and is intended for testing only. You will have to manually go to macOS Security settings and allow it to be run, or use the terminal command
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine MacVim.app
. Only do this if you are comfortable with in-development builds and want to try out the latest work-in-progress features and fixes. -
You can also do the same in the terminal by using the GitHub command-line tool
gh
:GH_REPO=macvim-dev/macvim gh run download \ $(curl "https://api.github.com/repos/macvim-dev/macvim/actions/workflows/ci-macvim.yaml/runs?per_page=1&branch=master&event=push&status=success" | jq ".workflow_runs[0].id") \ -n MacVim.dmg
