If you are using an Apple M1 machine

Enable Rosetta 2 <https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT211861>_ for the Terminal.app. You can do this by selecting Terminal.app in the Finder, then going to File and selecting Get Info, then clicking the checkbox Open using Rosetta.

Installing glue on MacOS X Big Sur (intel and M1)

If you don't have conda already installed:

wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-py39_4.9.2-MacOSX-x86_64.sh
bash Miniconda3-py39_4.9.2-MacOSX-x86_64.sh

then open a new terminal after the installation is complete.

Then create a new environment for glue:

conda create -n glue-bigsur -c glueviz glueviz=1.0 glue-wwt
conda activate glue-bigsur
conda remove --force vispy
pip install git+https://github.com/vispy/vispy
