Install Breeze

Breeze is a ~4 MB native macOS app, written in Rust, with no runtime dependencies, no background services, and no telemetry. It's open source and you build it from source — about a minute. macOS on Apple Silicon is recommended.

Build from source

Requires the Rust toolchain (rustup). Clone the repo and build:

git clone https://github.com/aldenbernsteinn/breeze-terminal.git
cd breeze-terminal
cargo build --release
./scripts/make-app.sh /Applications

This compiles a release build and assembles /Applications/Breeze.app — launch it from Applications or Spotlight.

Tip. Building from source lets you read exactly what you're running and track main as Breeze improves.
