Hello Donna,

macOS user here, what I do is download and unpack https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/releases/v2.24.1/downloads/lilypond-2.24.1-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz into my home directory at for example ~/lilypond-2.24.1/ , then symlink that directory to ~/lilypond/ , and add

export PATH="/Users/<USER>/lilypond/bin:$PATH"

to the final line of ~/.profile

How do I use Lilypond on my macbook. We are having a lot of trouble making it 
work and my husband’s a programmer.
