I see that Oracle 11g or 12c doesn't have the download files for OS X. However, there is a version of the SQL Developer available for OS X. What's the point of the SQL Developer when you don't have a database?
How do I install the Oracle database (preferable 12c or 11g Express Edition) on OS X?

Start the VM. If the DB is set to autostart during OS boot, you don't even need to log in. Update: If you have Oracle Database 12c you can use the new EM Express console for DB management and monitoring. Just enable port forwarding for port 5500 and then browse (from OS X) to https://localhost:5500/em.
I ran Oracle Database 12c in my Mac via Docker by this way for development and testing https://koacervate.blogspot.com/2019/01/quick-start-fastest-way-to-run-instance.html.
