Excellent :-). What is your preferred development platform? I know you
have a Mac, but it might be a little quicker to get up and running on
one of the popular Linux platforms if you have a VM to hand, as they
usually have wxWidgets available in their package repos.

Whatever you have, you'll need to checkout the pgAdmin source code -
there are instructions for doing that here:
