ravynOS
We love macOS, but we’re not a fan of the ever-closing hardware and ecosystem. So, we are creating ravynOS — an OS aimed to provide the finesse of macOS with the freedom of open source.
ravynOS is an early-stage (pre-alpha) open-source operating system based on Darwin, FreeBSD, and Apple open-source code that aims to be compatible with macOS applications and has no hardware restrictions.
