Issue installing Robotics Academy on macOS

[Sarvesh-Mishra1981]

I’m facing issues installing Robotics Academy on macOS. The official documentation does not seem to provide a download or installation steps for macOS. I would be grateful if someone could share the correct commands or point me toward a reference that explains the macOS installation process.

Hi @Sarvesh-Mishra1981 ,

nice to meet you. Yeah, the official documentation is mostly oriented to Linux and MS-Windows machines.... It will be nice you help on improving the documentation for MacOS machines.

As RoboticsAcademy user the procedure is to download the RADI (RoboticsAcademy Docker Image) from JdeRobot's DockerHub and launching it locally. As the GPU support is tricky (although very convenient to run the Gazebo simulator inside RADI in a fluent way), I would suggest launching the RADI with only-CPU instructions, without GPU acceleration for now.

Another way, a little bit more complex, is to follow the RoboticsAcademy instructions to build locally a RADI after you download all the repositories locally.

Thank you @jmplaza problem is resolved, Now I will just improve the documentation and will solve the exercises.
