I am no expert, but I use Homebrew <https://brew.sh/>.
After you have installed Homebrew try (in Terminal)
  $ brew options octave
to see what Octave options you might want to install.
Then
  $ brew install octave
(with or without options) should install octave on your system.

As I say, I’m no expert, but Homebrew works for me.
