That is already a feature. If you go to "Settings" - "Emulation" and uncheck "Boot game directly", it will boot you to the real NDS home screen. You will, of course, need the bios files as you would for playing any game on melonDS.

No, I don't have a Mac. Sorry.


Actually, I do believe macOS can both find and use Makefile files. Now, obviously, I have no way of trying this out, but from what I've seen...

...you'll need to install either Xcode or Make.
At which point you'll simply put in to terminal:

make [targetfile]

If that doesn't work, then I'm afraid I have no further way to help you. Sorry.

Whoops, made a mistake in that command... It should be LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/opt/gettext/lib

I compiled it for the macOS.. almost successfully. It stopped at 69 percent. Error:
