As a macOS user, the only file you needed was the darwin.dmg file.
A .dmg is a "disk image". Many application for macOS come as a disk image. You open the disk image by double clicking it. This "mounts" a virtual disk (as if you had inserted a removable drive). When mounted, a window will open with the Cura application icon in it. Drag that icon to your Applications folder. After copying you can "eject" the virtual drive (like you can eject a USB drive), and you are done with the .dmg file.
The appimages contain the whole application for Linux. You do not need them.
