    libsystem_coreservices

    Their `libcoreservices` has been useful to me for system-directory discovery on post-macOS-10.9 systems without having to install the whole heavyweight "macOS SDK" behind a Developer login wall: https://github.com/PureDarwin/libcoreservices

    These were available in Apple's open-source Libc until (afaict) Libc versions 9xx.x.x, corresponding to Mac OS X 10.9.x: https://opensource.apple.com/source/Libc/Libc-997.90.3/inclu...

    They were also available in the Mac OS X / macOS SDK package from as far back as I could find (10.1.x) through macOS 10.11.

  • PureDarwin

    Darwin is the Open Source core of macOS, and PureDarwin is a community project to extend Darwin into a complete, usable operating system.

    Neat project. Only two commits for 2022 though: https://github.com/PureDarwin/PureDarwin/commits/main

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • MacOSX-SDKs

    A collection of those pesky SDK folders: MacOSX10.1.5.sdk thru MacOSX11.3.sdk
