Binary Installation on MacOS

All the Ionic binaries are available in Big Sur and Monterey using the homebrew package manager.

The homebrew tool can be installed using:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"

After installing the homebrew package manager, Gazebo Ionic can be installed running:

brew tap osrf/simulation
brew install gz-ionic

All libraries should be ready to use and the gz sim -s server app ready to be executed.

Head back to the Getting started page to start using Gazebo!

Uninstalling binary install

If you need to uninstall Gazebo or switch to a source-based install once you have already installed the library from binaries, run the following command:

brew uninstall gz-ionic
