2026 2 months ago 2026 07 14 written in c operating system macos type display server license apple public source license mit license website www xquartz org repository github com xquartz xquartz xquartz is an open source version of the x org x server a display server for the x window system sometimes shortened to x11 or x that runs on macos 1 in 2012 it formally replaced apple s internal x11 app for os x mountain lion version 10 8 the name xquartz derives from quartz part of the macos core graphics framework to which xquartz connects these applications xquartz allows cross platform applications using x11 for the gui to run on macos many of which are not specifically designed for macos this includes numerous scientific and academic software projects 2 history edit x11 app was initially available as a downloadable public beta for mac os x 10 2 jaguar and later included as a standard package for mac os x 10 3 panther in mac os x 10 4 tiger x11 app was an optional install included on the install dvd mac os x 10 5 leopard mac os x 10 6 snow leopard and mac os x 10 7 lion installed x11 app by default but from os x 10 8 mountain lion on apple dropped dedicated support for x11 app with users being directed to the open source xquartz project to which apple contributes instead 2 in mac os x 10 4 tiger apple s x11 implemented x11 protocol release 6 6 x11r6 6 this implementation includes an xfree86 4 4 based x11 window server quartz rootless window manager libraries and basic utilities such as xterm 3 rootless means that x window applications show up on the quartz desktop appearing like any other windowed quartz application that is not in a virtual desktop contained within another window in mac os x leopard x11 was updated to use x org server x11r7 2 rather than xfree86 4 the source code for x11 is available from apple some source code is available under the apple public source license while the bulk is licensed under the mit license current version edit the current version of xquartz is a ddx device dependent x 5 included in the x org server and implements support for hardware accelerated 2d graphics in versions prior to 2 1 hardware opengl acceleration and integration with aqua the macos graphical user interface gui as of version 2 8 0 xquartz does not provide support for high resolution retina displays to x11 apps which run in pixel doubled mode on high resolution displays list of versions since 2010 edit version 6 macos requirement most important changes release date xquartz 2 8 6 mac os x mavericks 10 13 or later
