With IFS Cloud, clients can access the system without needing a Windows-based device, which is a great flexibility benefit. However, for developers, the use of Developer Studio still requires a Windows operating system. This means it cannot be used on macOS devices.
Given that Developer Studio is based on NetBeans, which is a cross-platform application, it shouldn't be technically difficult for IFS to provide a macOS-compatible version. Offering such support would significantly enhance the development experience and flexibility for Mac users.
Development is only supported on Windows Operating Systems.
Not for Partner/Customer use, unless used in environments hosted by IFS._*
Therefore we need to do some investigations and see whether we can provide the tooling support in MAC as it's not straightforward.
There should be a installer to support in MAC (Mac installer (.dmg))
Update Center support to give tool updates
Need to allocate resources to troubleshoot issue if something goes wrong.
Do accept the fact that Offering such support would significantly enhance the development experience and flexibility for Mac users, but still we do not have that as a roadmap item

A related question: does anywone have any experience with running IFS Developer Studio and IFS Report Designers etc. in Windows 11 using Parallels on a Mac?
