Hey, it's Tim! 👋 Maker of Rapidemo

Thanks for trying out Rapidemo!

You might see a warning when downloading or installing Rapidemo. Sorry about that!

The reason for this warning is that Rapidemo is still new and it's code signing certificate needs to build trust. Unfortunately this isn't as easy as it sounds - I've documented the journey a bit on X if you're interested.

Thanks for your understanding. Reach out on X or via email if you run into any issues or just want to say hello!
