Installing emacs-29 on Mac M1?
I use https://github.com/jimeh/emacs-builds on nightly. It looks like they've added nightly 29 builds but haven't setup a corresponding brew cask.

Why is Doom Emacs So Slow?
Simplest way on macOS to get native compilation is my emacs-builds project. Emacs 28.x and later, including nightly builds all have native compilation, and are available as Homebrew casks.

Emacs freebie: macOS emoji picker
Doesn't work for me on emacs-build, should it work out of the box?
-
I am curious how many of you are using native compilation.
For my own purposes I maintain a build script and binary builds project, allowing me to install the latest nightly as a Homebrew cask.

Inconsistent Space Width in Emacs-plus 28
There was even an issue reported on my own Emacs builds, but I could no longer re-produce it my variant of the issue at all, and the issue eventually went away for those who’d reported it.

I just learned that new Macs don't come with Emacs preinstalled
Though I don't love Ventura, running Emacs on MacOS has never really been a problem for me. It's also very easy to build Emacs. You can use this shell script if you like: https://github.com/mclear-tools/build-emacs-macos. I also list there a bunch of other build scripts from other users. Just as easy as homebrew really, with a lot more control (e.g. you can build whatever version of Emacs you like, at least back to 22).

GNU Emacs For Mac OS X warning message after macOS Monterey update
I build emacs myself from the master branch on an M1 and Monterey and don't see this issue. So it might be something either with your config or with that specific build setup.

What emacs to install on Macbook Air 2017, MacOS 11.6? I'm completely new to MacOS and emacs. Want to learn emacs+orgmode.
Here's the build script that I use. It is pretty dead simple. https://github.com/mclear-tools/build-emacs-macos

Shell script to build emacs on macos (works well with M1 mac on Monterey)
Hi all -- I've put a repo on github for building emacs on macos. There are several other such scripts available, but I've tried to make mine as simple to understand (I'm not a programmer) as possible (or as possible for me...). It currently works well for me but YMMV. Of course, I realize that there are a million ways to shave this yak, so I'd be curious if anyone has suggestions for improvement (though I'm also looking to keep things as simple as possible). I hope this might be of some use to people.
