Summary

  • Adds git-lfs to the listed requirements in the Build & run section
  • Documents the three setup commands (brew install git-lfs, git lfs install, git lfs pull) needed before the first build
  • Explains why: the CEF framework (~214 MB) is stored in LFS, so without this step the binary is just a pointer file and the app fails at runtime with slice is not valid mach-o file

Test plan

  • Clone the repo fresh (without LFS objects) and confirm the README makes the required steps clear
  • Follow the documented steps and verify ./run.sh produces a working build

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The Chromium Embedded Framework binary (~214 MB) is stored in Git LFS.
Without installing git-lfs and running `git lfs pull` after cloning,
the framework binary remains a pointer file and the app fails to load
at runtime with "slice is not valid mach-o file".
