Seven steps, a few minutes.

DevBrain is a small app for Apple Silicon Macs (M1 or later) for now; other platforms aren't built yet. Once it is running and linked to a repo, every coding session on the team sees the same picture.

1. 01

   Open the DMG

   It is in your Downloads folder, named DevBrain.dmg. Safari asks once whether to allow downloads from getdevbrain.com. Allow it. If the download still did not start, use the button below.

2. 02

   Drag DevBrain into Applications

   Then eject the DMG. You can delete it afterwards.

3. 03

   Open DevBrain from Applications

   It lives in the menu bar and has no Dock icon. The panel opens from the bottom corner of the screen when your mouse reaches it.

4. 04

   Sign in with GitHub

   The panel opens a browser tab for sign-in and hands you straight back to the app. Signing in does not give DevBrain access to any code.

5. 05

   Create your team, or join one

   Create a team, or open the invite link a teammate sent you and join theirs.

6. 06

   Add DevBrain to a repository on GitHub

   Pick one repo to start with and install DevBrain's GitHub App on it. That needs admin rights on the repo; without them, DevBrain gives you a link to send to someone who has them. If your team already has a repo linked, skip this.

7. 07

   Set up this Mac

   Click Set up this Mac. It installs the plugin your coding agents use. If you added the repo, choose its rules too. The next time anyone on the team who has DevBrain installed opens a session there, it will know who else is around.
