=======================
Installing Red on macOS
=======================
-------------------------------
Installing the pre-requirements
-------------------------------
To install pre-requirements, we first have to install Brew.
In Finder or Spotlight, search for and open *Terminal*. In the terminal, paste the
following, then press Enter:
.. prompt:: bash
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
After the installation, install the required packages by pasting the commands and pressing enter,
one-by-one:
.. prompt:: bash
brew install python@3.9
brew install git
brew install --cask adoptopenjdk/openjdk/adoptopenjdk11
By default, Python installed through Homebrew is not added to the load path.
To fix this, you should run these commands:
.. prompt:: bash
profile=$([ -n "$ZSH_VERSION" ] && echo ~/.zprofile || ([ -f ~/.bash_profile ] && echo ~/.bash_profile || echo ~/.profile))
echo 'export PATH="$(brew --prefix)/opt/python@3.9/bin:$PATH"' >> "$profile"
source "$profile"
