Hiding the console is a compiler/linker configuration parameter.

When compiling with GCC, the parameter is -Wl,--subsystem,windows or just -mwindows

When compiling with MSVC (Visual Studio) use /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS /ENTRY:main on linker configuration.

In the project build linker options set:

/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS 
/ENTRY:mainCRTStartup

Hiding the console is a compiler/linker configuration parameter.

When compiling with GCC, the parameter is -Wl,--subsystem,windows or just -mwindows

When compiling with MSVC (Visual Studio) use /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS /ENTRY:main on linker configuration.

What is the equivalent for Mac?

But the problem is that this does also disable other prints to the console

I am using GCC.
I used -Wl,--subsystem,windows and -mwindows but nothing works.

This is my makefile:

debug:
	g++ -c src/*.cpp -g -std=c++2b -Wall -m64 -I include && g++ *.o -o bin/debug/main -L lib -lraylib -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -lwinmm && start bin/debug/main.exe

release:
	g++ -c src/*.cpp -O3 -std=c++2b -Wall -m64 -Wl,--subsystem,windows -mwindows -I include && g++ *.o -o bin/release/main -L lib -lraylib -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -lwinmm && start bin/release/main.exe

clean:
	rm bin/debug/main.exe
	rm bin/release/main.exe
