How do I install sv.net/classic on macOS? That's a program you can use to submit information about your employee for german general social welfare insurance purposes and records.
I don't want to buy licenses for VirtualBox and Windows.
The ITSG support page about linux and macOS gives me a hint that I could use wine for this purpose, but it doesn't give a detailed step-by-step guide for wine newbies like me.
