MacPorts is developed on macOS, though it is designed to be portable so it can work on other Unix-like systems, especially those descended from the BSD.

The Key MacPorts Features:

• Installs automatically any required support software, known as dependencies, for a given port.
• Provides for uninstalls and upgrades for installed ports.
• Confines ported software to a private “sandbox” that keeps it from intermingling with your operating system and its vendor-supplied software to prevent them from becoming corrupted.
• Allows you to create pre-compiled binary installers of ported applications to quickly install software on remote computers without compiling from source code.

The MacPorts SetUp on macOS Require at least an XCode 5+ Installation from the Apple AppStore.
