Version: 1.2.0
Welcome to the Activate MacOS app! 🎉 This fun little app is designed to mimic the activation message you might see on Windows when you don't have a valid license. A playful nod to our friends using Windows!
This app creates a window on your macOS desktop with a message that says:
- "Activate MacOS"
- "Go to Settings to activate MacOS."
It's a humorous way to remind you of the activation screens found in other operating systems. 😉

brew install zarox28/apps/activate
