Please I am installing watchman for so that I can setup my React Native environment on MacBook Pro early 11 with Catalina 10.15.5.
All efforts to successfully install watchman has been abortive. Could anyone please help me? I have tried the command “brew install watchman” but it would complain of Folly and C.make during the installation. I have tried to install watchman through MacPort using the following MacPort documentation…
$ unzip watchman-*-linux.zip
$ cd watchman-vYYYY.MM.DD.00-linux
$ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/{bin,lib} /usr/local/var/run/watchman
$ sudo cp bin/* /usr/local/bin
$ sudo cp lib/* /usr/local/lib
$ sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/watchman
$ sudo chmod 2777 /usr/local/var/run/watchman
The “sudo cp bin/* /usr/local/bin” and “sudo cp lib/* /usr/local/lib” are wrong in the above step and there I am stuck.
I expected to see watchman installed on my macbook catalina 10.15.5.
Is there anyone who can give me a practical proven guide on installing watchman on Mac Catalina 10.15.5?
I appreciate your efforts in advance
