Hello @jvo203 cpx is currently supported for linux only, macOS support is already in works.
Thank you

cpx seems great! It would be amazing if it could be also installed via brew (both in Linux and Mac)

I'll try it when I'm back at my computer but do you know if it works on MacOS and Windows when compiled on those platforms?

Is this just a case of not having prebuilt binaries?
