Prerequisites

If you are connecting to a cloud-based or remote installation of MongoDB, you do not need to install MongoDB locally. Move on to Install Studio 3T for macOS.

If you want to configure a local installation of MongoDB, install the latest MongoDB community edition on your Mac. To do this, follow MongoDB’s tutorial on installing MongoDB on macOS using the Homebrew package manager.
