Currently the setup for developers are not described for OS X developers.

Hi @troelsfr, it seems the doc is not updated in the primary repo, see https://github.com/qir-alliance/qat/blob/main/docs/src/UserGuide/BuildingLibrary.md#on-macos-1 for example.

EDIT: Found the corresponding PR: https://github.com/qir-alliance/qat/pull/73 though it seems @bettinaheim recently updated the building instructions to point to llvm 13 instead of version 11 in the PR.

Hi @k4rtik . Thanks for brining this up. As you correctly point our, the section you refer was updated in PR #13 which has been open for far too long. This unfortunately means that the update needs updating to LLVM 13 as well as description of the alternative build procedure using bazel.

I will reopen this ticket due to these update requirements.
