True" hello and welcome back to the MAC conference. My name is Derek Ramirez and today we're going to be talking about MAC OS application bundles. Let's see what we have in the agenda for today. Today, we're going to discuss in general terms what bundles are in MAC OS. Specifically, we'll focus on application bundles and the structure of an application bundle. We'll also talk about the minimum requirements for creating an application bundle. Finally, we'll wrap everything up by creating an agent-based application and manually building the application bundle. We have a lot to cover, so let's get started. Let's start by talking about bundles in general in MAC OS. A bundle is a directory structure, but what makes this directory different than any other directory is that the root directory of the structure has a file extension that identifies it as a specific type of bundle. In MAC OS, common examples of bundles include frameworks, kernel extensions, XBC services, and screen savers. However, we'll focus specifically on application bundles, which have the extension ".app". Now, let's talk about application bundles. To do that, let's look at the applications on our computer. If we look here, we can see that they look like a single element and we can interact with them by clicking on them. However, behind the scenes, they are structured as directories. To understand the structure of an application bundle, let's inspect the Chess app. We can do this by using the terminal. We'll drag the application onto the terminal and get the path to it. When we inspect the directory, we can see that it includes a directory hierarchy with many files and directories. Another thing to note is that when we see the path to the application, it has the file extension ".app". However, in Finder,...
