OpenDSS appears to be dependent on Microsoft Windows.


I see no port available for macOS.


You’ll likely need to install Boot Camp and boot Windows that way, or install a hypervisor and install and boot Windows as a guest, and load OpenDSS and whatever using that.


This assumes you are using a MacBook Air with an Intel processor, and not an Apple silicon M1 processor.
