If you've ever tried to distribute a Mac app outside the App Store you know how annoying this process is.

You need to code sign your app, build a DMG, sign the DMG, submit to Apple for notarization, wait for approval, then staple the ticket back onto the DMG. Miss any step and your users get a Gatekeeper warning or the app won't open at all.

All of that requires five separate command line tools with their own flags and their own cryptic error messages. It's not hard once you know it but it's tedious and unforgiving and nobody should have to relearn it every time they ship an update.

I built Packara to fix this. You drag your .app in, set up your signing identity and notarization profile once, and hit Build. It runs the whole pipeline in sequence with live log output at every stage so you always know what's happening. When it's done your signed notarized DMG is waiting in Finder.

Credentials stay in your macOS Keychain the whole time. Nothing gets written to disk or passed as a command line argument.
