OS X usbserial driver is there a solution?

Hello community!
There is a USB device that is detected as a trident usb device 1.1 Firewood is available only for Windows, which create a virtual COM and then work with the device goes through the low level commands of the COM port. In Linux, the problem of the lack of a driver was solved simply: I installed the usbserial universal driver, then it was a matter of technology. I got the pid/vid, did it,
sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0xXXX product=0xXXX
and now the /dev/ttyUSBx device is ready.
Now there is a similar question with OS X. What can you advise? Of course, I can use the variant with libusb, but I want cross-platform, and not fence a separate version for the poppy. If anything, I write on GO. The program detects the OS, polls the COM ports, finds the device, and off you go. 100% cross platform code.

Hey!
If anyone is interested, my next step is to try to edit the existing kexts of USB-to-Serial bridges from various manufacturers: Silabs, FDTI, and so on. At the moment, we managed to "add" the FDTI kext. But haven't been able to get it to work yet. I'll post the results.
