Add basic MacOS install instructions #21

Closed jacobwhall closed 2 years ago

jacobwhall commented 2 years ago

This PR adds basic instructions for installing Firefox and geckodriver on MacOS.

These instructions suggest that MacOS users manually install Firefox using a downloaded .dmg. I think this is the easiest way, but it would be nice for it all to happen within the terminal. This might be possible be installing a .pkg using the command line (which is also available from the Mozilla FTP server), or by using a package manager like homebrew.

Finally, MacOS users will almost certainly have their Firefox binary in a different location, so we should probably move this value into config.ini. I'd be happy to push another commit with this change.

Looks good, going to merge and we can adjust after testing with MacOS users later
