+# bootstrapped JHBuild for macOS
+
+This is my version of setting up JHBuild on macOS. It is inspired by and uses components of [gtk-osx](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk-osx), but deviates from it in a few significant ways:
+
+- It uses a [FSH](https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs-3.0.html)-inspired directory layout.
+
+- It is fully self-contained to its directories, allowing for co-existence of multiple installations in locations of your choosing.
+
+- It uses a pre-built [Python.framework](https://gitlab.com/dehesselle/python_macos) to run JHBuild on OS X El Capitan up to macOS Monterey without relying on the system's Python.
+
+## usage
+
+TBD

+## license
