Ollama Installation Mac — Complete Guide

To install Ollama on macOS for development, first, download the latest macOS installer from the official Ollama website ([https://ollama.com/](https://ollama.com/)) and run the installer, accepting the terms and conditions. Once installed, open your Terminal and run the command `ollama serve` to start the local server and begin interacting with your chosen models.
