So we made a decision to buy the dev kit, but then what? ( mac)

I am spending the last 3 days trying to make sure somebody on this plant made it using a mac. Write a simple program and flash it to the DK. (before we make our own pcb)

I was able to find multiple questions about mac, without a single clear answer how exactly you do that. I find only promotions to this Segger software (that looks like something from 1980)

There was 1 guy who made it using command line, and his way seems like hell.

Do you have an official guide to somebody who pay for your product using a mac ?

1. Where do I write my code? the actual code that I can compile for the chip ? can I use Xcode?
2. I have the DK board, how do I flash it ?

Nordic, there are tens of millions mac users in this world, they really want to use your chip, but I found that all of them chose to give up because there is no clear way to do that.

But how many of them are doing embedded firmware development? I would hazard a guess that it's only a very small minority.

Also, more to the point, the Mac is definitely a minority platform when it comes to embedded firmware development.

I know this doesn't help you at all - but such is life.
