This repository provided a pre-release of TensorFlow and TensorFlow Addons tailored for macOS 11+ with native hardware acceleration via Apple’s ML Compute, supporting both Apple Silicon (M1) and Intel Macs. It shipped ready-made Python 3.8 wheels and install scripts so developers could quickly get an accelerated stack running without building from source. As TensorFlow added a Metal PluggableDevice path, the project directed users toward using Apple’s tensorflow-metal to get GPU acceleration on Mac directly through Metal. The README and releases emphasized this was a macOS-optimized distribution, not an upstream fork of TensorFlow, and it cataloged common installation notes and issues encountered by early Apple Silicon users. In practice, the repo served as a bridge during the transition to native Mac acceleration, making modern TensorFlow viable on Apple hardware while upstream support matured.

Features

  • macOS 11+ builds of TensorFlow and Addons with ML Compute acceleration
  • Support for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs in one distribution
  • Prebuilt Python wheels and one-step install scripts
  • Pathway to Metal GPU acceleration via tensorflow-metal
  • Practical troubleshooting via issues for early M1 adoption
  • Transitional bridge until upstream Mac acceleration stabilized

A low-code dashboard makes monitoring intuitive for any admin, while scripting and custom sensors give experts full control.

You shouldn't have to choose between a monitoring tool that's easy to use and one that's powerful enough for a complex environment. PRTG's low-code interface lets any admin build dashboards, set alerts and monitor devices without scripting, while custom sensors and full API access are there when your team needs deeper control. One platform, no compromise. Download a free 30-day trial now.
