2.3 Apple macOS
---------------
Zint can be compiled on macOS from the command line using the same steps as shown
for Linux above. Currently the Zint Barcode Studio GUI is not known to work on
macOS. The Zint developers do not currently have access to Apple hardware and
so are not able to provide support or binaries for macOS. If you are a macOS
developer, however, or if you have any success in building Zint on macOS, we
would love to hear from you.
Zint can be installed using Homebrew. To install homebrew input the following
line into the MacOS terminal
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Once homebrew is installed use the following command to install Zint.
brew install zint
