For macOS 11 (Big Sur) and 12 (Monterey) you need to install a more recent version of llvm.

``` bash
brew install llvm
```

And append the following to the configure commands below:

``` bash
CC=$(brew --prefix llvm)/bin/clang CXX=$(brew --prefix llvm)/bin/clang++
```

Try `llvm@17` if compilation fails with the default version of llvm.

### 4. Clone Dash repository

`git` should already be installed by default on your system.
