Setting up Home Assistant to run as a background service is simple; macOS will start Home Assistant on boot and make sure it's always running.
To get Home Assistant installed as a background service, run:
```bash
$ hass --script macos install
Home Assistant has been installed. Open it here: http://localhost:8123
```
Home Assistant will log to `~/Library/Logs/homeassistant.log`
To uninstall the service, run:
```bash
$ hass --script macos uninstall
Home Assistant has been uninstalled.
```
