Description
Our venerable Tango Controls is officially available for Linux and Windows OSes. But there exists a third OS, macOS, which has seen a bit of neglect by Tango Controls in the past. It is quite popular among the people in the field of astronomy. Until now developers had to resort on macOS to Docker images, virtual machines and the like. A Tango Controls port for macOS has the potential to lower the entrance threshold on macOS and expand Tango Controls' reach.
In this lightning talk I will demonstrate first working results of our ongoing effort to make Tango Control's cppTango, TangoTest and pytango available on macOS. The repository which contains the build scripts for macOS is already available at https://gitlab.com/tjuerges/build_tango.git.
