Towards the Personal Potential of Software
Along the way, I released a few demos for macdriver to make clear the possibilities and provide reference examples. One of them I spun off into a standalone project called topframe, which is also serving as a test bed for how we are doing cross-platform support. More on that in a moment.

Towards the Personal Potential of Software
With the macschema toolchain, you can generate API schemas about any Apple framework, class, function, etc based on their documentation and header declarations. This is useful for us in generating framework bindings in macdriver, but it would be useful for any project doing similar work, such as bindings for other languages. This sort of approach will play a big part in how Tractor will integrate with "whatever we want" down the line.

Apple API schemas for code generation and more
If this is interesting, take a look at the tool I built, macschema, which is open source on GitHub. Right now it's just the toolchain, but in theory we could generate schemas for all of Apple's APIs and put them in a repo in such a way that can be updated by a combination of macschema and user contributed patches. I'll let somebody else do that though.
What are some alternatives?
