Can DT reside on external hard drive to conserve MAC disk space

Downloaded DT & trying to decide on strategy to minimize MAC SSD space used by RAW files

Your raw files can live on a different disk or network share. I believe the application itself, darktable.app, needs to be in the Applications folder.

its possible to rum darktable from an arbitrary place but you need to run it with command line parameters to change the location of cached images.
darktable by default doesn’t copy your raw files somewhere (if you don’t use copy and import) you just need to care that the path to your images isn’t changed

thanks got it
