I do, but it's the 4.14 version. You can get that through MacPorts. HomeBrew may have the 5.x version but I have no idea how well that will work.

I do maintain (kind of) a large set of MacPorts packages for KF5 frameworks and apps, but until now I've decided against including the KDE PIM 5 suite. Too many packages, too many continued reports about issues and a blunt refusal from the PIM dev(s) to consider making the dependency on QtWebEngine optional (in favour of the rebooted QtWebKit, for instance, so much more suitable for embedded HTML rendering).
