This repo hasn't Mac builds. What is "Candle 2"?

I run into the same problem. You can get QT5 e.g. via brew: brew install qt@5 and then copy the missing framework into the App Package. In my case: cp /usr/local/Frameworks/QtNetwork.framework /Applications/Candle2.app/Contents/MacOS/Frameworks

This fixed it for me. Let me know if you need some more help. I just saw that there is a branch related to macOS Builds and I hope we will get better support for macOS soon - would be really nice!

Dear Denvi,

An earlier message from vol4enok pointed to me to a Google drive location: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1AGgX804tFUevi9AKxamSViYKNyABAJ_W. There I found Candle_1.2.9.1b.dmg and Candle 2_2.23.dmg. It is that Candle2 that crashes.

Kind regards, ahartman, belgium

Dear marsjo,

Adding the QtNetwork.framework worked for me as well.

Hi, ahartman. Looks like Candle 2 is a fork, i can't help with it.

Hi Denvi,

that's correct and I am not sure why it is there. There is also some branch doing comparison between Candle 1 and Candle 2. I used Candle 2 just because there was a ready compiled macOS App. Unfortunately I could not get it to work with my esp32-mpcnc. Yesterday I successfully compiled your project using an existing PR and it works perfectly fine on macOS. Candle is by far the best CNC Software I could find and I am really happy that it works under macOS as well.

Hello, I would like to ask you, why does my candle not display the path after putting the nc file? I have no idea to troubleshoot the problem.
