I dont entirely understand what this is.
I think this is an effort to create a skin, or graphics layer / window layer to FreeBSD that looks and feels like Apple.
But then it says the project uses the Mach kernel.
Does that mean that they have a version of FreeBSD running on top of
the Mach kernel?
That sounds cool.
Are they creating a clone of Cocoa that will have the same interface
as the original? Or is Cocoa a open sourced from Apple?
Near the top it reads:
""RavynOS aims to be compatible with macOS applications""
Ok well that sounds cool.
Then farther down:
""Trivial macOS and Darwin applications may run directly on ravynO""
I guess it can be a goal that is a long way off still.
I dont know why they would bother with Linux compatibility.
FreeBSD and Mac has to be the most important ones?
- piperswe 3y agoIt's using FreeBSD's existing Linux compatibility layer, so it's less "building Linux compatibility" and more "making sure they don't break the existing Linux compatibility"
