\n\n## Language\n\nThe system is currently written in C, but will also support several other languages, including x86 Assembly, Objective-C, Objective-C++, Swift, Metal, and AppleScript\n\n### Programming language support\n\nWIP (a template of the previous version is included to be used as a writing reference)\n\n```\n\u003c!--\nObjective-C is bumped up to version 2.0 (As of Wac OS X 10.6)\n\nPython version 2.7 is included (As of Wac OS X 10.15)\n\nPerl version ? is included (As of WacOS 10.15)\n\nSwift is now supported (Starting with WOAHS X 10.9)\n\nMetal is now supported (Starting with WacOS 10.12)\n\nObjective-C++ is now supported (as of WacOS 10.12)\n```\n\n## Features\n\nFeatures to replicate\n\nWIP (a template of the previous version is included to be used as a writing reference)\n\n```\nSource: [MacOS 14 (Sonama) - Wikipedia (en)](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MacOS_Sonoma\u0026oldid=1173808371\u0026useskin=monobook)\n\nThere is not enough data yet. I cannot compile a list of features or changes yet. The base operating system isn't planned to be released until Autumn of 2022, and data won't likely be immediately complete then either.\n\nProgram list\n\n- [x] Coming soon\n\nTo add to this list:\n```\n\n```\nAirPort Utility\nApp Store\nArchive Utility\nAudio MIDI Setup\nAutomator\nBluetooth File Exchange\nBoot Camp Assistant\nCalculator\nColorSync Utility)\nConsole\nContacts\nDictionary\nDigital Color Meter\nDisk Utility\nDVD Player\nFaceTime\nFont Book\nGarageBand (may not be pre-installed)\nGrab\nGrapher\niMovie (may not be pre-installed)\niTunes\nImage Capture\nKeychain Access\nKeynote (may not be pre-installed)\nMessages\nMigration Assistant\nNotes\nNotification Center\nNumbers (may not be pre-installed)\nPages (may not be pre-installed)\nPhoto Booth\nQuickTime Player\nScript Editor\nStickies\nSystem Information\nTerminal\nTextEdit\nVoiceOver Utility\n```\n\n```\nFeature dump (incomplete)\n```\n\n```diff\n++ Widgets have been completely revamped, they are no longer constrained to the Notification Center—instead they can be placed anywhere on the desktop, and the widget picker has been redesigned to resemble the iPadOS version of it.\n++ The lock screen has been redesigned to include the date and time similar to iOS and iPadOS.\n++ Video-conferencing apps can overlay the presenter's webcam video on top of screen sharing.\n++ App icons and the spotlight search bar have been made more rounded.\n++ Safari:\n++++ Browsing profiles enable separate sets of bookmarks, extensions, and cookies, which can be used to separate, for example, a personal setup from the work one.\n++++ Password sharing lets multiple people have access to the same collection of website passwords, and update them as needed, with changes syncing across all enrolled devices.\n++++ “Web apps” lets the user add any website to the Dock and open it in a simplified Safari interface. This feature is somewhat different from progressive web apps since it doesn't require additional work of website developers.\n++ Messages:\n++++ More precise search filters: for example, the contact name can be combined with a search term to look for the term within the specific conversation.\n++++ Catch-up lets the user quickly jump to the first unread message in a conversation.\n++++ iMessage stickers have a new picker interface.\n++ Game mode, to optimize gaming performance by prioritizing gaming tasks and allocating more GPU and CPU capacity to the game.\n++ New slow-motion screen savers of different locations worldwide. When logged in, they transform into the desktop wallpaper.\n```\n\n## Feature translation notes\n\nThe exact system requirements are not a forced emulation option. The WacOS system is designed to be lighter, but you can adjust it to match MacOS.\n\nWacOS equivalents of programs are included.\n\nMalicious methods (such as DRM/TPM) are NEVER included with WacOS, not even as an open source recreation.\n\nPlease [:octocat: `raise an issue`](https://github.com/seanpm2001/WacOS/issues/) if any other clarification is needed.\n\n## Home repositories\n\n[:octocat: `Guesthouse repository`](https://github.com/seanpm2001/WacOS_15/)\n\nThis is a guesthouse repository, and not a home repository, as development mainly stays on the main WacOS side. This is just the guesthouse that the project retreats to at times. If you are already in this repository, the link is likely recursive, and will reload the page.\n\n[:octocat: `Home repository`](https://github.com/seanpm2001/WacOS/tree/WacOS-dev/WacOS_X/XV/15/)\n\nThis is the home repository. If you are already in this repository, the link is likely recursive, and will reload the page.\n\n***\n\n## File info\n\n- **File type:** `Markdown document (*.md *.mkd *.mdown *.markdown)`\n- **File version:** `1 (2024, Wednesday, July 10th at 10:37 pm PST)` (created 1 day early)\n- **Line count (including blank lines and compiler line):** `161`\n- **Current article language:** `English (USA)`\n\n***\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fseanpm2001%2Fwacos_15","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fseanpm2001%2Fwacos_15","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fseanpm2001%2Fwacos_15/lists"}
