DNA Engine

A 100% offline, bring-your-own-DNA genomics workbench for macOS. It reads a local raw-DNA export or VCF on your own machine and turns it into a citation-backed research readout without cloud upload, telemetry, an account, or hidden network traffic.

DNA Engine is a companion lab project, not part of the Linux ISO.

It is for research and educational use, with explicit refusal to overclaim on ancestry, pharmacogenomics, or health actions.

Build from source (macOS)

Requires macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later and Xcode command-line tools. The published build script does not touch /Applications unless you ask:

VERSION="$(<VERSION)" BUILD_NUMBER="$(<BUILD_NUMBER)" BUILD_ONLY=1 ./build.sh

Output is build/DNA Engine.app. INSTALL=1 is an explicit opt-in documented in the repository README. First launch of an ad-hoc-signed local build may need Gatekeeper’s Open exception.
