make STAR error and unable to install gcc using homebrew

[mahek3012]

So I'm analysing RNA-seq data of data available from NCBI and I'm very novice in this area. Im using Mac M1-arm 64 architecture. I have prepare pipeline for preprocessing of this dataset which contains 30 samples using SNAKEMAKE. I'm stuck in aligning the reads.

1. Firstly I used bwa-mem for alignment, the rule was working but it was taking a lot of time. and when I went back to literature, I saw STAR is the best aligner tool for human genome.
2. So, I used Miniconda and tried to install star. but it says there is no STAR package available. so I installed to my working directory and was trying to make STAR. but it threw this error:

(star) mahek@ snakemake-data % cd STAR-2.7.11b/source
(star) mahek@. source % make STAR-2.7.11b
date: illegal option -- -

clang: error: unsupported option '-fopenmp'
make: *** [systemFunctions.o] Error 1

Then I tried to download homebrew without sudo. and tried to follow the steps from the manual that I need gcc to install. but it threw me this error:
./configure --prefix=/Users/mahek/snakemake-data/STAR-2.7.11b/source/homebr
