The Aqua Screenshot Library, as creator Stephen Hackett notes, provides a comprehensive look at the history of Apples operating systems, which covers its jump to from bulkier CRTs to compact, LED-backlit displays; Apples various font changes over the years; and Apples move from disc-based operating systems to (free) digital downloads. 10.0 Cheetah Mac OS X 10Mac OS X 10.0 (Cheetah) Screenshot: 512 Pixels March 24, 2001, marked the first official release of the Mac OS X operating system, following a public beta the year before. Hackett notes that its 128MB memory requirement was more than most Mac users had in their systems at the time. This lead to many complaints about the OSs slow performance and high resource demand. The Cheetah interface retained the pin-striped menu and window design from the beta, but it began the feline-based naming trend which would last up to version 10.8, Mountain Lion.

The release of Leopard saw Aqua take on a much more streamlined look, with all windows now defaulting to a single, simple grey design, as well as the debut of a redesigned Finder tool. Prior to this, different appsand different versions of OS Xhad varied UI designs (for better or worse). Most importantly, it was the first version to include those rad, space-based backgrounds. OS X Mountain Lion (10.8) Screenshot: 512 Pixels Advertisement Mountain Lion was the first version of OS X to arrive after Steve Jobs death, and it focused on aligning Mac computers with the late CEOs other major contribution to the tech industry: the iPhone. The 2011 OS X update, Mac OS X Lion (10.7), kicked off Apples merging of iOS aesthetics into OS X, and the company doubled down with Mountain Lion. Tools and applications were renamed after iOS features, and Apple added some small visual and input changes to bridge the two operating systems even closer togetherin style, at least. OS X Mavericks (10.9) Screenshot: 512 Pixels Advertisement Mavericks was a major business pivot for Apple, as it was the first version of the OS the company released for free, offered to users as an upgrade via the App Store in October 2013. Apple hasnt gone back to paid operating systems sincethankfully. Mavericks was also the first version of OS X to use non-feline nomenclature. It also ditched the galactic background theme for California landscapes, which we can all agree was a major blunder. Right macOS Sierra (10.12) Screenshot: 512 Pixels Advertisement Version 10.12 of Apples operating system for the Mac is most is notable for its big rebranding. Browsing the Aqua Screenshot Library is a fun way to see just how far macOS has come, especially to see how Apples design priorities change between the major releases.
