UniXNU

Migration notice: Update your device repository for shared SoC support and canonical component names. Follow the migration guide.

An independent project to run iOS and macOS on non-Apple ARM64 hardware through UEFI. Like OpenCore, UniXNU is a general UEFI environment and driver loading system: it loads the drivers a device needs and boots the OS through a common UEFI layer.

UniXNU provides shared build tools, ARM64 support, OS profiles and reusable components for ports across SoCs and devices. SoC repositories supply common platform support, and device repositories supply board configuration and hardware integration.

🎉 News: Adreno740 and AdrenoMetal implement GPU acceleration for A740/SM8550. See the Adreno 740 driver documentation.

Documentation: unixnu.com. Start with Port a device or Build and boot.

See CONTRIBUTING.md.

The macOS 27 profile follows macOS-DroidVM, the DroidVM port booted with UniXNU, for its kernel patches (the union root volume, code signature pages on a 4K kernel, the 24 MHz timebase, the realtime and mmap fixes, exec denial) and for the account setup in the Data seed.
