VL53L5CX arduino mega 2560

I just purchased the VL53L5CX-SATEL Breakout Boards for VL53L5CX

https://estore.st.com/en/vl53l5cx-satel-cpn.html

and i have been trying unsuccessfully to get it to work with an Arduino Mega 2560. 

Does anyone know if it is possible to get it working with the Arduino Mega 2560 ? If not, should it work with an Arduino Due ?

The library is not compatible with avr architecture due to the fact that the memory size of the chip is too small. 

But the library should work without any issue with the Arduino Due.
