[Dune-devel] Dune on MacOS

[Samuel Burbulla]

Hi Simon,

I use Dune on MacOS (11.2.3), too.

I use the toolchain installed by the Apple Developer Tools, i.e. clang 12.0.5 and cmake 3.20.2.

Other packages like suitesparse I install via homebrew.

Recently, I made a full new setup on a new M1 Mac and also observed no real issues.

Best,
Samuel
