To install and run MongoDB Community Edition on macOS Ventura 13.4, you can follow these steps:

1. Homebrew Installation: - Ensure that Homebrew is installed on your system. If not, you can install it by running the following command in Terminal: ``` /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" ```

2. MongoDB Installation: - Once Homebrew is installed, you can use it to install MongoDB by running the following command in Terminal: ``` brew tap mongodb/brew brew install mongodb-community@5.0 ```

3. Create Data Directory: - Create a directory for MongoDB to store its data. You can do this with the following command, replacing "/data/db" with your preferred data directory: ``` sudo mkdir -p /data/db sudo chown -R $(whoami) /data ```

4. Running MongoDB: - Start the MongoDB server with the following command: ``` brew services start mongodb/brew/mongodb-community ```

5. Verify Installation: - You can verify that MongoDB has started successfully by running the following command: ``` mongo --eval "printjson(db.serverStatus())" ```

6. Accessing MongoDB Shell: - To access the MongoDB shell, simply run the command: ``` mongo ```

These steps should help you install and run MongoDB Community Edition on macOS Ventura 13.4. Let me know if you encounter any issues along the way!

Brew not found:

IF the "brew" command is not being recognized, indicating that Homebrew might not be installed or properly configured on your system. To fix this issue, you can follow these steps:

Install Homebrew:

Run the following command in Terminal to install Homebrew:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

Set PATH for Homebrew:

After installing Homebrew, ensure that the Homebrew directory is added to your PATH. You can do this by adding the following line to your shell configuration file (e.g., ~/.zshrc for zsh):

export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH"

Once you've added the line, save the file and run the following command to apply the changes:

source ~/.zshrc

Confirm Installation:

After completing the above steps, verify that Homebrew is installed correctly by running the following command:

brew --version

Once Homebrew is installed and properly configured, you should be able to proceed with the MongoDB installation steps mentioned earlier. Let me know if you encounter any further issues!
