Most applications are written in [[:Category:Objective-C\|Objective-C]] and [[:Category:Swift\|Swift]] using the [[Cocoa]] framework. Versions of macOS from 10.0 to 10.7 were branded as '''Mac OS X''', and versions 10.8 to 10.11 were simply called '''OS X''', with more recent releases still occasionally unofficially referred to as such. Previous versions were simply called '''Mac OS''', while the oldest versions were referred to as '''System''' followed by the version number, e.g. "[[wp:System 7\|System 7]]".
