Congratulations..

I use Homebrew - and get all my usual Linux tools. No dual boot, no plugins, just brew.

You might also sign up as an Apple Developer (now free as I recall). You can then download Xcode and some additional command-line tools. But Homebrew is the main toolbox.

You also might switch from the GNU C++ compiler to Clang, which is the normal OSX C++ compiler (also available for Linux). Clang gives better diagnostic messages. The compile speed and execution speed is about the same as GNU.

Have fun - BobG

For a project I am involved with, I may need to move to a macbook as my
development environment. Because my old windows/linux laptop is getting old
and parts are no longer working, it may no longer be available to me. So, I
may need to do any future gnucash development on apple products.

For those here who use mac, what can you tell me? Are the tools we need
readily available? Do you just dual-boot to linux or use a linux vm? What
do you use?
