It is a pity that Lazarus and FPC seems to be so hard to deploy. It is of course an open source project, so its understandable.
Lazarus and FPC is a great project. Building GUI apps like with Lazarus does not have an easy alternative, from which I'm aware.
I have tried it now on my Mac, and I have to jump through some hoops to get it going. Again a pity, its a great option.
That's one problem I haven't had. I've even run Lazarus on a Raspberry Pi Zero W, it was slow but it actually worked. I don't know what kind of hoops the Mac has, but on Windows or Linux it's easy peasy.
I tried it and I can tell you that it's a lot easier with Lazarus 4 than it was with Lazarus 2.
