The ZIP contains a single .app bundle. Drag it to your Applications folder.
What happens when you open it
Since SideNook is an indie app distributed outside the App Store, macOS will show a security prompt. This is normal — here is what to do:
Double-click it in Finder or Downloads to extract SideNook.app.
Drag SideNook.app into your Applications folder.
Do not double-click. Right-click (or Ctrl-click) the app and choose Open. This tells macOS you trust it. Click Open in the dialog. You only need to do this once — after that, double-click works normally.
SideNook needs Accessibility access to detect your screen edges. macOS will prompt you — go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility and toggle SideNook on.
