I did some digging into this and libserial no longer works with macos. We would have to fork it and rewrite a couple sections based on the discussion with the developers on this issue thread: https://github.com/crayzeewulf/libserial/issues/143

The issue is that serial.h is not available for macos. There are only a couple lines of code that rely on serial.h so it would require replacing those commands with the serial.h equivalent for macos. That said, the developers have said they don't have time to do this so it might be kind of challenging. Would be worth checking the forks to see if someone has solved this already.

If not having access to this is causing an issue for Anya, let's get her setup with a raspberry pi. There are a bunch around hte lab and we can buy another keyboard, mouse, and monitor to finish out the workstation if that is needed.
