System requirements

Pinegrow is available for Windows 10 & 11, macOS 13 and 14 and Ubuntu Desktop 20.04 LTS and 22.04 LTS.

Windows 10 & 11

Although it is known that Pinegrow may work flawlessly with previous versions of Windows, we test each release of Pinegrow with Windows 10 & 11 only and we provide support only for these versions of the system.

macOS  13.x & 14.x

Although it is possible that Pinegrow may work flawlessly with previous versions of macOS, we now test each release of Pinegrow with macOS 13 (Ventura) and macOS 14 (Sonoma) & and currently, we provide support only for these versions of the system.

Does Pinegrow work on Mac computers equipped with Apple Silicon chips (M1, M2, M3 …)

Since Pinegrow 7.x

We now offer a native version of Pinegrow for the new Apple M1, M2, M3 ….

Pinegrow < version 7.x

From our tests, Pinegrow 6.x works fine, at least on Apple M1 powered computers.

The first run takes a minute or so because the operating system is recompiling the app. Subsequent runs are quick.

Important: Pinegrow should not be run directly from the DMG because it gets compiled every time it is run. So it should be copied to Applications or similar which is the standard way with Mac apps.

Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 LTS

Although it is possible that Pinegrow may work with previous or future versions of Ubuntu Linux, we now test each release of Pinegrow with Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 LTS only and we provide support only for these versions of the system.

Despite that, Pinegrow might still work on your system. The best approach is to try the trial version. If that works fine, it’s 99% certain that everything will be fine. In case not, you’re covered by our 30 days money back policy.

Requirements for WordPress Themes Development

If you plan to build WordPress themes with Pinegrow PRO/WP or Pinegrow Theme Converter for WordPress, you will have to install and configure a Web development environment (a webserver, a database engine and WordPress) on your own computer.

Please consider using our favorite solution: Local.app from Flywheel. It is available for Mac and PC. (and it’s FREE)
