Where do you get Builder? (for Mac)
-
The links for "Get Builder" go to https://developer.visionappster.com/visionappster.html, which just has downloads for vision appster. How do you get Builder?
I've got vision appster installed on a raspberry pi, and can go to its webpage, and the camera is working okay.

The "VisionAppster" software distribution contains the Builder. The installer will ask you if you want to install a local instance of the Engine as well. All installers are available at https://download.visionappster.com/.
The fact that you need to ask tells me that we need to improve our message. Thanks for the question!

Thanks - I was confused because I'm on a Mac, so looked at the Docker distribution here - https://hub.docker.com/r/visionappster/va-engine - which doesn't mention Builder - so I guess that's just the engine.

I see. The Docker image only contains the Engine. To run the Builder on Mac, your only option is to use a virtual machine and use either the Windows or the Linux binary.
The Builder (and the Engine) actually do run on Mac, but Apple's SDK licensing terms prohibit building native extensions on non-Mac hardware. Since such extensions are the whole point of our business, Mac users are crippled. It is a big bummer, but nothing we can change.

@Topi Yeah, that's too bad... I'll try the Linux binary in a VM, or try remoting into my Windows machine.
