before uploading, make sure:

• clean up code and comments
• examples work (worked in vs code, cleared)
• compiled exe work (for both mac and windows, rebuild everything)

• wtf is this:
  • Apple silicon (M1) prebuilt mediapipe wheels released on PyPI google-ai-edge/mediapipe#3277

it worked: pyenv install 3.8
basically run this guy's commands: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69511006/cant-install-pyenv-3-8-5-on-macos-big-sur-with-m1-chip
I didn't finish but I did install brew86
arch -x86_64 /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"

alias brew86="arch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew"'
install libs for pyenv

brew86 install openssl readline sqlite3 xz zlib
it errored out saying mac already provided similar libs

then I tried pyenv install 3.8 and it picked the right version for me, now it's building for me

plan: install homebrew, update homebrew, install pyenv, update pyenv, then install reqs for pip as in above links?
brew install openssl readline sqlite3 xz zlib

new plan, follow the link above and only use 86 64 stuff:
pyenv: /usr/local/Cellar/pyenv/2.3.16

mac has smth weird going on. i think it uses the cwd for everything, so to build, you build from basedir and run the spec file whereas windows u go to examples dir and build it

[ShootingStarDragon]

python -m PyInstaller --onefile --name BacksubMAC --add-data "FastCVApp.py:." examples/example_backgroundsubtraction.py

so packaging to mac works, just need to say that you need to add the file directly. the problem i had is my target was down 1 level and I couldn't figure out how to add it no1 on windows/mac, no2 to work from both running from examples file and from exe no3 with log/no log
