CocoaWinAPIGTK

CocoaWinAPIGTK is a software project that aims to provide a way to write graphical user interface applications using the GTK+ toolkit and have them run on macOS. Typically, GTK+ applications are developed for Linux and other Unix-like systems. CocoaWinAPIGTK attempts to bridge the gap by allowing developers to leverage their existing GTK+ knowledge and codebases on Apple's desktop operating system.

The project involves a compatibility layer that translates GTK+ calls and events into their macOS native equivalents, often using the Cocoa framework. This allows GTK+ applications to integrate more seamlessly with the macOS environment, potentially offering a more native look and feel than a standard X11-based GTK+ application might. The goal is to enable cross-platform development where a single GTK+ codebase can be deployed on both Linux and macOS with minimal modifications. Success of the project depends on the comprehensive implementation of the GTK+ API and its faithful translation to the underlying operating system's graphical primitives. Documentation for CocoaWinAPIGTK is typically found on its project website or code repository, outlining installation, usage, and any known limitations.
