The forum

WarpPLS is software helping analysis quantitative data (questionnaire, survey) on PLS-based structural equation modeling (SEM) on statistical science.
However, the author of WarpPLS (NedKock) have been developed it on Windows, doesn't supported MacOS. Therefore, I wrote the script to help someone (doctoral student, researchers, ...) who would like to make install easy on Mac.

This script use version 7 beta.

Wine version: 3.0.3 (x86)
Distribution: MacOS Mojave
Distribution Version: 10.14

Comments:
Before install, I recommend installation XQuartz and Win Mono at outside playonmac because XQuazt will help WarpPLS running data and create 2D and 3D graphic vectors. Moreover, I put direct link from his website on script that users know link offical.

Known issues
Does not work with Wine 4.0.3 & 5.0

Hello, I've see the script you posted. But there is a issue because the script download somefiles, and I want to be sure that these files are freeware (because of this project policy).

 hello

Warppls also commercial software (free trial 3 months with full features and buy license would use continous, it depending on customers). 

in script I putted direct link from host website to help some person doesnot have techinical akills can setup easy on their macos. May I ask if I drop method download, just keep method local then Is it possible approve? 

Warppls developed from dotnet, matlab.

dotnet 4 also freeware. For matlab, it addition file integrated on setup file.

XQuartz jut tool supported create graph support together matlab.
