Pre-compiled KiCad binaries for Mac OS X, built from source. Most people just want to download and use them — so here they are.

Click here to download KiCad revision 5247 (2014-10-31: Halloween edition!).

I built this version using my instructions. To install it, just de-compress the ZIP file and drag the KiCad.app package to your Applications folder.

You will also need to download the standard component library. Open a terminal and type:

$ cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/
$ git clone https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-library.git kicad
$ cd kicad && touch template/kicad.pro

Please let me know in the comments if you find this package helpful. I think it will not be long before the KiCad project has official binaries. In the meantime, I will update them if needed.
