Installation guide.

What you need first.

  • An academic email address. Noolio is currently open to academic users only, so sign-up requires a .edu, .ac.in, or equivalent institutional address.
  • Stata 17 or newer, installed and licensed on your machine.
  • python3. Most Macs already have it. If Noolio asks for it on first launch, download it free from python.org.

Approve the security warning

macOS blocks apps that aren't from the App Store by default, so you'll likely see one of the dialogs below. Click through it (OK or Done, whichever one appears). Just don't click “Move to Bin.”

Still blocked? Allow it in Settings

If none of those worked, open System Settings, go to Privacy & Security, scroll down to Security.
