This should be the highest-rated comment. The guy who posted this video / transcript is wrong about so many things - I'm actually convinced he's being purposely misleading. It's an…

I started with CLion, and found the UX to be completely foreign (not at all Mac-like) and overall frustrating to use. Xcode is definitely not perfect, but it's IDE I'm most used to…

I considered this! There were a lot of things I wanted to try but didn't want the timeline of this project to blow up any more than it already had. Now that I've done the hard part…

Thanks! The project was mostly C for the bootloader and C++ for the drivers. As for which part was the most challenging... probably understanding the IOKit driver model. I really w…

Your ports were a huge inspiration - thanks for contributing so much to this space!

I'm intrigued by this technique! Will look into it, thanks for the tip!

Last I checked, the 60fps frame buffer conversion resulted in the system idling at 18% CPU. Certainly not ideal. I'd love to optimize this further.

Yes - this project (and countless others) would not have been possible without the incredible work to hack the Wii from Team Twiizers (now fail0verflow) back in the day. The work t…

I was - incredible views indeed!

Very cool! I'd love to learn more. That seems extra challenging considering Mac OS 9 is closed source!

Thank you for the kind words :)

With the extra RAM, higher clock speed, and no need to waste CPU cycles converting YUV -> RGB framenbuffers - I bet it would be!

Images now expand when clicked - thanks for the feedback!

I felt similarly. The learning curve was a tad steep, especially since I had never written a driver before, but once I figured out how to structure things and saw the system come a…

My Wii has been on many planes and trains - and yes, there is a photo of each in my post.

> Looking for private API behavior or working around bugs? Exactly this!

I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a very tiny part of my motivation :)

I used plenty of non-agentic AI to help understand the XNU codebase, and also research various topics. It wasn't always correct, but it certainly helped at times! My philosophy for…

There are bugs and undocumented behaviors that need to be understood in order to be worked around - I wish it wasn't the case but such is life developing for closed-source platform…

I only tested on Safari - whoops! Fixed now.

Whoops, thanks! Fixed.

Thank you for the kind words! I like using it for disassembling UIKit (for my day job working on iOS apps), and overall, I like the UI/UX and how it feels like a native Mac app. I'…

I thought they rolled back all of those efforts. What devices shipping today come with Fuchsia installed?
