  • About Cocoa

    Cocoa is the native programming environment for Mac OS X. It is one of five of the available APIs offered from Apple. It was derived from the original programming used for the NeXT operating system. On December 20, 1996, Apple acquired NeXT and incorporated much of it's programming into Mac OS X including Cocoa.
