Ask HN: Resources to Learn macOS Development? | Feb 2023
The other responses have some great answers, but I learn best by breaking something that is already working, and so this list may have useful sources of code to poke around in: https://github.com/serhii-londar/open-source-mac-os-apps

> a half-decent Linux distro has a lot better usability

Has not been my experience with either Arch/kde or Ubuntu at all, but to each their own. They have their own strengths but usability isn't one of them IMO.

> the whole app ecosystem is a shock, where it's normal that basic tools (like FTP Client) cost 50EUR or come crippled (Like FileZilla). It's a horrible feeling coming from OSS world.

OSS versions of tools like FTP clients exist in the macOS world as well[0]. Theres a small but high quality ecosystem of independant mac software thats been around for a long time.

- Spectacle, to have a real UI window manager system - Path Finder, to have a real file explorer - ITerm
