+MacOS / Windows
+===============
+
+On platforms such as MacOS or Windows where static linking is desirable and
+dependencies such as MbedTLS or argp may be unavailable, the `FETCH_MBEDTLS`
+and `FETCH_ARGP` options can be specified when generating the build system.
+
+In addition, MacOS universal binaries can be built by specifying the desired
+architectures using the `CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES` option.
+
+This is an example of how a self-contained, static, universal binary can be
+built from scratch for MacOS:
+```
+rm -Rf build &&
+cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="RelWithDebInfo" -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="x86_64;arm64" -DFETCH_MBEDTLS=YES -DFETCH_ARGP=YES &&
+cmake --build build
