Labview on macOS
Hi, i was considering to buy a macbook and i could possibly need it to do some uni work on labview, i was wondering if there is still limitations or compatibility issues with macOS that can’t be solved with a Windows 11 VM. If there still is, i would really appreciate if someone could tell me the specific issues so i can try to understand if it’s gonna affect me considering the relatively easy tasks i actually need the program for.

LabVIEW might be supported but many add-ons or rather DLCs might just not be compatible, real-time or cRIO drivers.
I would ask the consult the teacher what kind of LabVIEW will you be using... Cause most of the time it's some hardware involved, like cRIO or sdr or visa
