7 Animia supports Windows, macOS, and Linux when dealing with file descriptors. When enumerating windows, it supports Windows, macOS (Quartz), X11. I'd love to be able to support Wayland, but there's nothing I can do to provide an API that literally does not exist. 7 Animia supports Windows, macOS, and Linux when dealing with file descriptors.

14 ## Platform-specific quirks
15
16 ### macOS
17 The code to executable names on macOS uses internal functions. However, if these functions
18 cannot be found for whatever reason, it falls back to parsing the arguments, and then to calling
19 the kernel.
20
21 macOS doesn't have the concept of "class names", rather, it has bundle identifiers, which are
22 a suitable replacement for most use cases.
23
24 ### X11
25 X11 has no idea what PID started your window. As a result, we can't provide it. Eventually,
26 there'll be support for the XRes extension which provides this possibility. For now, PIDs are
27 received using the untrustworthy `_NET_WM_PID` resource.
