🚀 Getting Started

Requirements

  • macOS 15.0 or later
  • Calendar access permissions

Installation

From App Store (Recommended)

Download on the App Store

Direct Download (DMG)

For Macs where the App Store is unavailable (e.g. managed work machines):

  1. Download TimelyMeet.dmg from the latest release
  2. Open the DMG and drag TimelyMeet to Applications
  3. Launch TimelyMeet from Applications and grant calendar access

The DMG is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple. It has the same features as the App Store version.

Updates: the DMG version does not update itself. To get notified about new versions, click Watch → Custom → Releases on this repository, or use About → Download Latest Version in the app settings.

Homebrew

The same notarized DMG, with updates via brew upgrade:

brew install --cask romancha/tap/timelymeet

Install only one version: the App Store and DMG builds share the same app identifier, so running both leads to duplicate menu bar icons and notifications.

Building from Source

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/romancha/TimelyMeet.git
cd TimelyMeet

# Open in Xcode
open TimelyMeet.xcodeproj

# Build and run
⌘ + R

🛠 Development

Architecture

  • SwiftUI: Modern declarative UI framework
  • EventKit: Calendar and event access
  • Core Data: Local data persistence

Development Commands

# Build from command line
xcodebuild -project TimelyMeet.xcodeproj -scheme TimelyMeet build

# Run tests
xcodebuild test -project TimelyMeet.xcodeproj -scheme TimelyMeet -destination 'platform=macOS'

# Open in Xcode
open TimelyMeet.xcodeproj

Releasing the DMG

The DMG is built, signed and notarized locally, so the Developer ID key never leaves the maintainer's Mac.

  1. Bump MARKETING_VERSION / CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION, add the version to TimelyMeet/Resources/release_notes.json, commit and push to master
  2. Run ./scripts/release.sh: it builds and notarizes TimelyMeet.dmg, shows the release notes generated from release_notes.json and, after confirmation, creates the tag and the GitHub release with the DMG attached
# One-time: store notarization credentials in the keychain
xcrun notarytool store-credentials timelymeet --apple-id <apple-id> --team-id KY6MPSHF75

# Dry run: build and sign without notarization or publishing
SKIP_NOTARIZATION=1 ./scripts/build-dmg.sh
