Released on October 16, 2014, Yosemite is the codename of OS X version 10.10, the eleventh release of Apple's desktop operating system.

Yosemite includes major updates to the UI (user interface), including icons and blurred transparency effects, which correspond more closely with the UI of iOS 7 and iOS 8. It features a new JavaScript scripting system called JXA (JavaScript for Automation) that allows Cocoa applications to be written entirely in JavaScript.
