Installation notes

To deploy the web verions just download the "web" release artifact and unpack it in a "mangabox" folder on your web server. Because of CORS limitation by default MangaBox will work only if it's on the same location as your komga server.

Electron version is not limited by CORS and it will work with any Komga server.

The macOS binaries are not signed, so they won't run by default. You can allow them to run on Intel macs by right-click/open but on Apple Silicon you'll need to ad-hoc sign the binary. This is a simple bash script that will do the hard work for you:

					#!/bin/bash

					app="$1"

					xattr -d com.apple.quarantine "${app}"

					find "${app}/Contents" -type f -exec codesign --force --timestamp --verify --verbose --sign - "{}" \;

					codesign --force --timestamp --verify --verbose --sign - "${app}"

Just chmod +x the script and run it with the .app file path as argument.

Mobile versions are not signed, you can sideload the Android apk on your device, and you can sideload the iOS/ipadOS version using a developer tool like AltStore which will self sign and renew the signature every 7 days.
