In Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, Apple's X11 implemented X11 protocol release 6.6 (X11R6.6). This implementation includes an XFree86 4.4 based X11 window server, Quartz rootless window manager, libraries, and basic utilities such as xterm. "Rootless" means that X window applications show up on the Quartz desktop, appearing like any other windowed Quartz application (that is, not in a virtual desktop contained within another window). El capitan (10.11.6) could not mount dmg since alpha 1 to beta 1.

In Mac OS X Leopard, X11 was updated to use X.Org Server (X11R7.2) rather than XFree86. jeremyhu added a commit to XQuartz/ that referenced this issue on Feb. The source code for X11 is available from Apple. Some source code is available under the Apple Public Source License while the bulk is licensed under the MIT License.

The current version of XQuartz is a DDX (Device Dependent X ) included in the X.Org Server and implements support for hardware-accelerated 2D graphics (in versions prior to 2.1), hardware OpenGL acceleration and integration with Aqua, the macOS graphical user interface (GUI).
