The system requirements for Maya release versions can be found on the System requirements for Autodesk Maya page.

The compiler and tool versions required to build plug-ins and applications with the Maya devkit are:

Operating system Requirements

Maya C++ plug-ins are built using CMake. You can use CMake to generate makefiles under Linux, Visual Studio projects on Windows, and Xcode projects on macOS. These projects can then be built using CMake, be imported into an IDE, or built using another tool.
