Instructions in this documentation assume macOS 14 or later.

You can use Boot to Qt on macOS with Apple silicon.

Installing platform dependencies

Boot to Qt is using Docker-based toolchains on macOS. This means that before attempting to install Boot to Qt from Qt Online Installer, you must have Docker Desktop installed and running. You can also use Homebrew to install it.

Qt Creator provides support for using Docker toolchains in the same way as normal toolchains.
