Xquartz App
Posted : admin On 1/26/2022Currently, XQuartz is needed to run inkscape on the Mac. There may be a native Mac client whenever inkscape v1.0 is released. Another thing to keep in mind is that you will need to have Apple's command-line tools for Xcode (compiler) installed, or Xcode itself in order that the package manager can actually build inkscape for you.
Released: 2014-08-18
Installation
What Is Xquartz

Get the Quartz app for the latest business news in the global economy, from our reporters around the world. From XQuartz's faq: Uninstall (Snow Leopard or Later) XQuartz does not replace the system X11 on Snow Leopard, so you can go back to the Apple-provided X11.app rather easily. Just launch X11.app rather than XQuartz.app to get the older server.
DownloadXQuartz-2.7.7.dmg,and open it in macOS’s Installer.
