Run macOS Software on Linux

> We do, and in fact, Darling is largely based on the original Darwin source code published by Apple. We use The Cocotron as a basis for our Cocoa implementation, along with the Apportable Foundation and various bits of GNUstep.

Apportable (<3) was a YC startup https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/apportable from 2011 - the Foundation repo last update was Dec 2014.

It almost worked, unfortunately MacOS reserves x18 for platform purposes and Linux doesn’t.

The result is some sort of pretty mad contraption which works sufficiently often to compile aarch64 Linux VPP and its dependencies on the Mac using Linux gcc :)

I suppose with some polish it might be useful for something..

Darling only targets x86_64 stuff. Still, it's a cool project.

Kinda sad that there are very few updates though [1]

All I want for Christmas is Logic on Linux. But then you’d still need a Mac to legally download it from the App Store and DRM checks would probably only work on Macs
