Install Pyzo on MacOS

Option 1: install using the binary

We provide binaries to run Pyzo on MacOS.

Download the .dmg disk image and mount it.
Copy the Pyzo app to to the Applications directory.
If you get a warning about Apple being unable to check the file, you must right-click-open the file.

The binaries are build on a relatively old version of macOS. If it does not work, consider upgrading your OS or read on.

You can install Pyzo into most Python interpreters. In the below command you can replace "pyside6" with "pyqt6", "pyside2" or "pyqt5":

$ python -m pip install -U pyside6 pyzo

Then run it with:

$ pyzo

If you want to hack on Pyzo, install the source using pip in developer mode:

$ git pull https://github.com/pyzo/pyzo.git
$ cd pyzo
$ python -m pip install -e .
