MacOS doesn't allow me to start the app

On MacOS Sierra and newer, if you try to open an app that is not signed by an identified developer you get a warning dialog. To override your security settings and open the app:

In the Finder, locate the app you want to open. Control-click the app icon, then choose Open from the shortcut menu.
