I installed SFML for macOS-clang with this video [this video] . And I setup the Xcode like this video [LINK] but it does not work like in the video. It can be built with no error or warning but when I run this is what happen. [LINK] Just so you guys know that I am an amateur. I use MacBook Pro M1 2020. I never work with SFML before. I just start using Xcode. I am used to work on VSCode before. I got Rosetta2 installed. Before this I have tried to do it on VSCode with this Boilerplate( [LINK] ). I also have tried SFML that install via Homebrew. What should I do? I really need to do this because I have to use it to make my game project for my college. Thank you all in advance.

I am following a tutorial [LINK] to use SFML. I have also used this tutorial [this video] to properly download SFML files and move them to their proper file locations. I also used brew to install SFML. I am currently using an M2 Mac , I have downloaded SFML version 2.5.1_2 and am running the code on VS Code . However, everytime I try to run this code; #include <SFML/Window.hpp> int main() { sf::Window window(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "My window"); return 0; } it returns this error: Undefined symbols for architecture arm64: "sf::String::String(char const*, std::__1::locale const&)", referenced from: _main in main-7676f2.o "sf::Window::Window(sf::VideoMode, sf::String const&, unsigned int, sf::Conte
