Running on MacOS?

[Tangston311]

This may be an ignorant question because I'm new to all of this, but I have my Homebridge instance running on MacOS, not a Pi, but I can't get it to recognize my Alexa devices (I get the error below). Could this work on a Mac or do I need a Pi to properly clone the repository (which, by the way, I've never done before so I have no idea if I'm doing it properly).

Also, could this support Alexa scenes perchance? I.e. some of my compatible Alexa skills only create a scene, not a device, and I'm hoping to control those via Homekit.

Thanks!

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Still can't get it to run on my Mac with the same error as above. Thanks much.
