WSM v0.1.0

Windows Subsystem for macOS: macOS Tahoe 26.3 (x86-64) in a VM on Windows 11, driven by one CLI.

Download

  • wsm-setup.zip (about 50 MB): wsm.exe, wsmd.exe, QEMU runtime with the six WHPX patches, reims-vgpu 7bdb4ec0, OpenCore AMD/Intel templates, install.ps1, sources and licences. Verify with SHA256SUMS.
  • No macOS content is included. You build the base yourself from an installer you own:
    • light base (headless, suspend/resume, 1.0 GB, about 8 minutes): wsm base build-lite --iso <Tahoe ISO>
    • full base (GPU desktop, 17.9 GB, about 1-2 hours): wsm base build --iso <Tahoe ISO>

Highlights

  • Resume in about 2 s (core instances), warm wsm exec about 40-60 ms.
  • Light base: wsm exec --root, wsm run --detach / jobs / kill, Homebrew working (hello from source 3 min, jq bottle 13 s).
  • GPU profile: paravirtual GPU on Vulkan, desktop window via wsm gui start.
  • Nothing is installed system-wide; wsm uninstall --yes --portable leaves Windows untouched.

Known limits
