macOSsta

macOSsta is an open-source project that provides a curated set of configuration profiles, scripts, and utilities designed to customize and optimize macOS systems. It is not affiliated with Apple. The project is intended for power users, IT professionals, and administrators seeking repeatable setups across multiple machines.

Originating as a community-driven collection of automation scripts, macOSsta aims to standardize common configurations, improve privacy, and optimize performance without altering core system binaries.

The project distributes a central manifest and a modular installer that applies preference settings, shell tweaks, and profiles via automation. Modules cover privacy controls, performance optimizations, user interface customization, and startup behavior, allowing users to enable or disable features selectively.

macOSsta is released under an open-source license to encourage review and contributions. Users are advised to review each script, back up important data, and test configurations on non-production machines before broad deployment. Apple does not endorse macOSsta, and improper use may affect system stability.
