NI published some information in this regard. In general, OpenSUSE, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, and Scientific Linux are mentioned as compatible Linux distributions. So, the first question you may ask is which Linux distribution and LabVIEW versions are compatible with each other. But how straightforward is it actually to use LabVIEW in Mac OS, compared to Windows? And how about LabVIEW on Linux? Let’s take a look at it.Īs you may know, there is a huge family of Linux distributions including Debian, openSUSE, Red Hat, Slackware, and Ubuntu. The development of LabVIEW was inspired by the graphical interface of Apple’s Macintosh. Therefore, it may be obvious to assume that LabVIEW is still used on Mac OS. From my point of view, this was quite interesting since I only had worked with LabVIEW on Windows up to that point. Consequently, I also had to work in the corresponding LabVIEW development environments regularly.
Some time ago, I worked on an application that was required to run on a Windows, Linux, and Mac operating system (OS).
