Your work deserves a record.
The things you built, changed, learned and nearly forgot belong together. Start with the work you already have.
macOS · Apple silicon · Requires Node 22.18–24 · v0.3.1
No Node? Install Node 24 (LTS) for Apple silicon from nodejs.org.
Don't use Node 25 or newer yet: Foliage refuses them.
Check with node --version.
Install & verify
One download holds Foliage and its local brain, which runs on this Mac only. Check that shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/foliage-0.3.1-darwin-arm64-b649b49.tgz prints the SHA-256 below. Then extract it into a new folder and follow START-HERE.md in its runtime folder: mkdir ~/foliage-download && tar -xzf ~/Downloads/foliage-0.3.1-darwin-arm64-b649b49.tgz -C ~/foliage-download && cd ~/foliage-download/runtime. Double-clicking the download instead puts its runtime and vendor folders in a folder named after it.
