Support the Project

Textonom is free and open source. The current funding goal is Windows code signing and Apple notarization so new users see fewer security warnings during installation.

Release automation is ready to use signing credentials from GitHub Actions secrets: MAC_CSC_LINK, MAC_CSC_KEY_PASSWORD, APPLE_ID, APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD, APPLE_TEAM_ID, WIN_CSC_LINK, and WIN_CSC_KEY_PASSWORD.
