First introduced in Developer Preview 3, this new user interface was shockingly different from Platinum in Mac OS. I truly believe Carbon is the real hero of the OS X transition, as without it, I don’t think it would have been successful. That’s really a story for a different time, but in short, that operating system strategy left classic Mac OS developers without a way forward for their applications that didn’t require rewriting them, and the community soundly rejected the entire thing.Īfter a regroup, OS X began to take shape, with a new technology named Carbon that would allow apps written for the Mac to run natively on the new operating system with some tweaks. That process took longer than Apple had predicted, and included a false start known as Rhapsody.
The release followed years of development that took NeXT’s technology and molded it into an operating system for the Mac. On March 24, 2001, Apple released the first non-beta version of Mac OS X 10.0: It’s hard to believe that Mac OS X macOS is two decades old, but it’s true.
