FreeBSD is not supported as of yet, and the main problem would be code in pal directory. @Curculigo are you interested in participating in the porting effort?

I've had some changes started for FreeBSD support, but must've deleted them. I can definitely provide CMake changes pretty quickly.

[Curculigo]

If it's only about CMake and some ifdef in source code then I could help. But I don't have the skills needed to deal with anything more complex than that.

[ppenzin]

It is some CMake changes and a lot of ifdefs :smile: The gist is PAL in CC is a bit different from the PAL in dotnet, as some code was removed for performance reasons. @rhuanjl has done the heroic work to get that to work on arm64 MacOS, it should be possible to handle FreeBSD too.

I will recreate partial change and post it as a branch.
