The following is a non-exhaustive list of projects that incorporate parts of this repository in their build systems.
On macOS, applications must be code signed and notarized in order for users to run them without bypassing Gatekeeper. You will need an active Apple Developer account in order to generate and use the necessary certificate to code sign your application.
To enable code signing and notarization for macOS builds, you will need to
uncomment the relevant lines in the release.yml workflow file and add several
