No. But as it is plain text I suspect any git system will work wonders and deal with sync collisions. Falling back to sync alone, then all cavats apply, only one editor at a time…
Just use my template: Scrivener + Quarto: a technical/academic publishing workflow – the direct template download is here (right-click and “save link as…” or whatever the equivalent is in your browser, then in Scrivener New Project and use Options⇨Import Template...): Scrivener + Quarto.scrivtemplate
One step forwards at least…
homebrew really does make lots of things easier on macOS. It doesn’t need xcode, but does need developer tools which automatically get installed as Apple has a mechanism for this.
zsh works perfectly well with brew, no need for bash - in fact my favorite shell is called elvish, and brew works well with that too. I know terminal things can be a bit obtuse at first, but lots of activities become way easier with a little time. I always install brew on a clean mac, then use that to install all my apps in one go, for example imagine manually installing Scrivener, Bookends, pandoc, LateX, fonts, Microsoft word etc, it takes ages. BUT homebrew it is this:
brew install scrivener microsoft-word bookends basictex font-alegreya font-alegreya-sans pandoc pandoc-crossref ruby
I made a script that does all of this for me automagically so I really just run one script on a new mac, and it installs brew then all my other software, and gets my github code all in one go (here for the curious).
These are not so commonly used tools, mostly used by computer developers at the cutting edge. Having said that they do make specific kinds of diagrams so much easier to make and maintain, and building diagrams at compile time from editor text is such a neat thing…
As I hint at above, with brew this would have been a simple:
brew install font-alegreya font-alegreya-sans
If you’ve never installed a font, then there is a onetime command to add the fonts cask first: brew tap homebrew/cask-fonts
