Merge #15964: Docs: Improve build-osx document formatting
dbd137a4ea Improve build-osx formatting (Giulio Lombardo)

Pull request description:

  This `PR` will improve `build-osx.md` formatting by:

  1. Updating Markdown syntax to the latest one
  2. Adding syntax highlighting to all code blocks
  3. Aligning the text up to `80` column guideline (before it was following different guidelines, sometime `80`, sometime `90`, etc.)
  4. Small grammar improvements here and there

ACKs for top commit:
  fanquake:
    ACK dbd137a4ea - Document reads and renders essentially the same as the current `build-osx.md`, with minor formatting / grammatical  changes.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
