dMLX

Getting started

Status: v0.1 beta 3. dMLX makes only images (it generates and edits them). Video is planned. The app is not notarized yet. Refer to the release notes and the known issues.

Requirements

Section titled “Requirements”
  • An Apple Silicon Mac (M1 or newer), with macOS 15 or later
  • 16 GB of memory or more
  • Disk space: ~5 GB for the default image model, and 2.8–6.0 GB for an agent model

Install

Section titled “Install”
  1. Download dMLX-<version>-macos-arm64.dmg from the dMLX website or from GitHub Releases, which also has a .zip of the same app.
  2. Open the .dmg and drag dMLX.app onto the Applications folder.
  3. The beta is not notarized. The first time that you open the app, do this: right-click the app → Open → Open. As an alternative, run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/dMLX.app.
  4. When you start dMLX for the first time, it recommends an image model and an agent model for your Mac, and shows the total download size. Click Download. You can change either model, or skip the agent, and change them later in Settings. After this step, dMLX operates offline.
