Mac OS C++14 compiler

I get errors when i try to run sync-parsers.
I saw in the youtube video that i should install an other compiler.

Any suggestions or guides for which compiler i should install?
(P.S. Not a C++ dev so google search was not really helpful)

This is what I did:

brew install gcc

I tried setting the CC env variable, but it didn't help on its own. So then I added this to my treesitter config, and then it worked.

require("nvim-treesitter.install").compilers = { "gcc-13" }

It did not work with just { "gcc" }. This command ls /opt/homebrew/bin/gcc-1* told me that I have gcc-13.

I don't know why the extra step was needed. I am also not a C/C++ dev.

Thank you that worked for me as well.
