Darling is a translation layer for running macOS (10.15; command-line) apps on Linux. It’s built on Darwin and is similar to WINE.
Might be interesting if, say, you want to look into maybe supporting your command-line app on macOS without having to pay Apple a few grand every-so-many years or mess with setting up a virtual machine for an operating system that doesn’t want to run on any device Tim Cook doesn’t personally profit from.
@aral Alternatively there's Multipass (https://multipass.run/). It does use VMs (hyperkit on intel, qemu on M1), but it takes care of it for you, and the setup is much simpler because it does have a pkg or you can use brew (https://multipass.run/docs/installing-on-macos).
@DiogoConstantino Multipass is neat if you want to, say, run Ubuntu on Mac but Darling lets you do the opposite: run ~macOS (Darwin) on Linux.
@aral I read it wrong :(
@DiogoConstantino No worries, Diogo :)
