Hi, thank you for your suggestions and pointing me the to right places in documentations. After some struggle and frustration, I managed to setup my MacOS environment to be able to do some productive work on QGIS. I ended up with homebrew approach and especially qgis/homebrew-qgisdev/development/README.md was helpful. The QGIS build with qt 5.11.1 looks usable too.
Unfortunately I had some issues with tap qgis/homebrew-qgisdev. It is not possible to even tap it from master and qgis3 formulae is not working. The QGIS3 formulae in OSGeo4mac homebrew repository is updated and working. I am wondering if qgis/homebrew-qgisdev is actively maintained and used? Also, what is the benefit to maintain this formula over osgeo4mac/qgis3 formulae (they are very similar)? Prepared https://github.com/qgis/homebrew-qgisdev/pull/72 with changes I made to be able to build QGIS3 (I used the scripts, development/README.md and followed the QT Creator path in the document). We should update qgis/QGIS/INSTALL for OSX (that was the first doc I checked). I am happy to help with docs and homebrew-qgisdev, but first I need to clarify the status of qgis/homebrew-qgisdev.
