    OS X is literally a heavily modified version of FreeBSD with a very shiny GUI.

    It ships with a terminal that has zsh installed by default, and homebrew is a decent package manager. You can write scripts for it in precisely the same way you do for Linux.

    It being closed source means you can’t edit the OS itself. And there’s certainly a bunch of weird stuff that it does. But mastering linux and mastering OS X are pretty similar things.
