I installed the ANTs from the https://github.com/ANTsX/ANTs ‘s latest pre-compiled binaries https://github.com/ANTsX/ANTs/releases v2.5.2 Froggattella https://github.com/ANTsX/ANTs/releases/tag/v2.5.2

In the Assets, there are multiple versions you could choose from based on your OS version. You could figure out your OS with terminal command uname -m

my MacOs is arm64,

so i picked the ants-2.5.2-macos-12-X64-clang.zip

ants-2.5.2-macos-14-ARM64-clang.zip

if your output is x64 then pick ants-2.5.2-macos-12-X64-clang.zip

now, unzip ants-2.5.2-macos-12-…-clang.zip

Move the Extracted Files to a Suitable Location:

sudo mv ants-2.5.2 /opt/ants

open a new terminal, at the home directory:

nano ~/.bashrc

add the following lines:

export ANTSPATH=/opt/ants/bin
export PATH=${ANTSPATH}:$PATH

Save and close the file, then reload it:

source ~/.bashrc

Since we dl the ANTs from browser, your terminal might have issue trusting it
