“Cosmic Cliffs” by James Webb Space Telescope

Overview

This repository is dedicated to providing resources for transforming a Dell XPS 9370 into a partially functional hackintosh.

It's recommended to:

1. Determine your hardware specs

2. Read the Opencore vanilla guide extensively

3. Make your own EFI (and debug if possible)

4. Only use this repo as a reference point

   Remember that hardware specs can vary between device to device so it's best you avoid copy - paste.
