2018年7月1日 · PureDarwin focuses on creating a usable bootable system that is independent of macOS components, relying solely on Darwin and other open-source tools. The project's main focus is providing useful documentation and making it easier for developers and open-source enthusiasts to engage with Darwin.

Darwin is the open source operating system from Apple that forms the base for macOS, iOS, tvOS, etc. PureDarwin is a community project to make Darwin more usable on its own (some people think of it as the informal successor to OpenDarwin).
