macOS-Simple-KVM is a project that provides scripts and configuration files to easily set up and run macOS in a virtual machine using QEMU and KVM. It simplifies what is typically a complex process by offering a straightforward approach to creating a macOS VM on Linux systems with hardware virtualization support. The repository includes tools for preparing installation media, configuring virtual hardware, and managing VM launch scripts. By using KVM acceleration, the virtual machine runs with near-native performance, making it useful for testing, development, or personal experimentation. The project also supports GPU passthrough and other advanced configurations for users who want a more optimized macOS VM environment. While primarily intended for educational and testing purposes, it demonstrates how macOS can be virtualized outside of Apple hardware.
