Description

Online I see that there only exist manual for installing and building Carla on Linux. Is it possible for installing and running it on Mac?

Research direction
This issue is an old question about building Carla on macOS. The repository provides Linux build instructions only. A contributor should read through the 84 comments to see if any progress or workarounds have been suggested. The assignee may have a branch or PR in progress. The concrete deliverable could be to create a macOS build guide or a Dockerfile for macOS. Start by understanding the current CMake build system and dependencies, then attempt a build on macOS and document the steps needed. Check if any existing forks or comments address this.
