 The easiest way to get Geany installed on your system is to get the precompiled version available [[http://download.geany.org/|here]]. The app bundle requires OS X 10.7 (Lion) or higher and a 64-bit CPU.

-__Note:__ while MacPorts provides a Geany package, as of this writing the Geany version provided by MacPorts has some major issues (paste not working, infinite loop after using find in files). The current Geany master version already contains fixes for these issues and it is expected that Geany 1.25 will work alright with MacPorts. You can get all dependencies using MacPorts and compile the development Geany version to have fully working Geany under MacPorts.+As of March 2022, you can install geany and geany-plugins (1.38) on your Apple Macintosh via MacPorts.  MacPorts is a software packaging system that brings thousands of open source software packages to the Mac operating system.  After installing MacPorts (and Apple’s Xcode developer tools), you can install geany and most of the plugin collection with:
  
-To have native-looking Geany under OS X, add this to ''/opt/local/etc/macports/variants.conf'':+sudo port install geany-plugins
  
-<code> +If you want a leaner install, you can install just geany with:
-+no_x11 +
--x11 +
-+quartz +
-</code>+
  
-Then run the following commands: 
- 
-<code> 
 sudo port install geany sudo port install geany
-sudo port install gtk2-aurora #optional 
-sudo port install gtk-chtheme #optional 
-</code> 
  
-__Note:__ The ''gtk2-aurora'' and ''gtk-chtheme'' packages aren't required but they will make Geany look better. After installing, run <code>gtk-chtheme</code> and choose gtk2-aurora.+The default install of geany uses a X11 interface and so should be as similar as possible to other unix-based platforms if that is where you are coming from.  More experimental at this point, but can also install geany with a Quartz-based interface with:
  
-__Note:__ Geany's menu will be inside its main window instead of in the top panel like native applications, so it will feel slightly foreign, but it still works great.+sudo port install geany +quartz
  
-__Note:__ VTE 0.28.2 doesn't work without additional patching so the terminal tab isn't available.+For information on geany on MacPorts, you can look at
  
-As a bonus, any other GTK+ apps you install with MacPorts will look at least as good as Geany does when installed this way.+[[https://ports.macports.org/port/geany/]]
  
 +[[https://ports.macports.org/port/geany-plugins/]]
  
-===== Run Geany on macOS (OS X) ===== +geany and geany-plugins are both native and compatible with Apple-silicone macs (“M1”).
-The intuitive method is to run Geany with the LaunchPad.+
  
-If you want to run Geany in command line, you can write in the terminal : +To run Geany, double-click the Geany icon installed in Application/MacPorts.
