What macOS software

In theory, running Apple Silicon apps on ARM64 linux machines would be really nice. But we are still far from having a performant and feature-complete implementation of doing so.

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

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

Quibble: it'll run anything that runs on open source Darwin. You won't be running anything needing macOS frameworks.

This is the Darling project which aims to run macOS software on Linux for both Intel and ARM64.

But you are probably looking for this:

   > Does it support GUI apps?
   > Almost! This took us a lot of time and effort, but we finally have basic experimental support for running simple graphical applications.
It is still far away from running your favorite mac GUI apps like Logic Pro or Xcode, but it is a work in progress but can still run command line tools.

What allows Wine to run so many Windows apps that there's not an equivalent for MacOS? Is it lack of interest? Is it a technical thing? I'd even be willing to limit to x86 apps. Or maybe there is and I'm just really out of touch??
yincrash•6m ago
A lot of work by various companies and people who had various different motivations to work on the compatibility. With CodeWeavers and Valve support, they had a monetary incentive.

It's also been around since 1993.

At a guess: the "killer apps" are things like MS Office and Photoshop, and since they are usually available on both Windows and Mac, there's not such a pressing demand to support similar functionality for Mac apps if the Windows version is easy to obtain.
