Try Omarchy is a macOS application that runs the upstream Omarchy desktop on Apple Silicon Macs without manual setup. It packages a project-built ARM64 Arch Linux image configured with Omarchy Quattro, a QEMU runtime using Apple's Hypervisor Framework, and a Swift/AppKit launcher. The guest image is built from pinned Arch Linux ARM packages and a pinned Omarchy source revision, with temporary fixes recorded by hash in the guest build specification. The application provides hardware-accelerated ARM64 virtualization and VirGL graphics, a resizable native window with automatic guest-resolution and HiDPI updates, Mac audio input and output selection, two-way clipboard sharing for text and PNG images, one optional shared Mac folder, and loopback-only TCP and UDP port forwarding from macOS into Omarchy. It is distributed as a signed and notarized DMG, and the first launch provisions the Linux account and guest environment. Video decoding is currently CPU-only, which can make high-resolution playback slow. Try Omarchy is not official or affiliated with Omarchy.

Madeira is an open-source research project for running x86-64 Windows PC games on non-jailbroken iPhones. It combines ARM64EC Wine, FEX-Emu for x86-64-to-ARM64 translation, and DXMT for translating D3D11 to Metal, packaging them with wineserver as a thread inside a single Mach process on iOS. The project is sideloaded because it requires JIT with a debugger attached. It uses an Apple ID for signing; free-account provisioning profiles expire after seven days, requiring the app to be rebuilt and reinstalled, while the app container preserves prefixes and save data. The repository reports playable results for Thumper and ULTRAKILL, with other titles reaching gameplay with limitations, and describes the project as subject to rough edges, title-specific issues, and breaking changes. Madeira is licensed under GPL-3.0-or-later, with separate licensing terms for upstream components and project forks. It is built from several chains covering Wine, ARM64EC modules, FEX, DXMT, and the iOS application.

Highball is a native macOS app and CLI for running Windows games on Apple Silicon. It assembles Wine engines from pinned upstream builds, sets up bottles, and supports renderer overlays for WineD3D, DXMT, D3DMetal, and DXVK; it can install Steam, connect an Epic library through Legendary, and switch renderers per bottle or launch. Its compatibility database records verified runs, per-game renderer verdicts, community reports, machine-derived predictions, provenance, and kernel-anti-cheat blocklist entries. Declarative JSON recipes describe installer, registry, Winetricks, synchronization, renderer, version-pinning, and note steps applied to bottles, while the CLI can submit game results to the open database. Highball requires Apple Silicon and macOS 14 or later. The app and CLI are licensed under GPL-3.0, while the recipes and compatibility database are CC0; D3DMetal is downloaded separately after acceptance of Apple's Game Porting Toolkit license. The project documents limitations with several Chromium-based launchers, Rockstar, Ubisoft Connect, GOG Galaxy, Battle.net, and the EA app.

macOS is a proprietary, Unix-based desktop operating system developed by Apple Inc. for Mac computers. It is built on the Darwin (XNU) kernel and provides the Aqua graphical environment with native application frameworks such as AppKit, Cocoa, and SwiftUI, a POSIX-compliant user space, and services including iCloud, Handoff, and the Mac App Store for app distribution. macOS runs on Intel x86_64 and Apple silicon (ARM64) architectures with support for Universal binaries, includes security features like Gatekeeper and System Integrity Protection, and is licensed and distributed by Apple as part of Mac hardware and system updates.

Keel is a local-first native macOS coding workspace that runs coding agents through a Rust/GPUI application. It combines sessions, a composer, transcripts, a terminal, change inspection, settings, Git history, crash recovery, and an agent graph showing active agents, subagents, and files as shared context; agents can be steered or stopped from the graph. It connects Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, Hermes, and pi through the Agent Client Protocol, and also includes an embedded DeepSeek agent loop with host-enforced tool focus. For unpinned tasks, a local Laya selector running through Core ML or an optional hosted Jev selector chooses among host-prepared routes or abstains. Keel validates each choice before applying it, falls back to the ordinary route when a choice is rejected, stale, or expired, and records candidates, validation, fallback, and observed outcome in bounded decision receipts. Decision receipts can be exported as JSONL and summarized with CLI reports. Keel also provides headless and daemon modes, while each coding provider retains its own authentication, model configuration, and tool loop. The repository supports Apple Silicon and macOS 15 or later for the packaged Laya model. It can be built from source, but the repository does not currently publish downloadable app releases; packaged builds are ad hoc signed development builds. Automatic training, public installer distribution, cloud sync, and native Codex realtime voice are not implemented or included in this build.
