# khanhduytran0/LiveSimBooter

> Experimental native iPhone host that runs an arm64 iOS Simulator runtime on jailed iOS without JIT, using the device kernel instead of CPU emulation. Aimed at developers experimenting with simulator runtimes on real devices.

## Useful for

- Boot the pinned iOS Simulator 26.0 runtime on a jailed iPhone to test SpringBoard and app launching
- Run guest launchctl commands and userspace reboots to debug simulator services
- Verify touch, keyboard and Metal presentation through the IOSurface and Fish tabs

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-30 (UTC), 09:22–10:54: 117 → 117 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +6 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 3 days old and already has 117 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #183.
- About 6 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 19
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 30 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 0

## Stars per day, last 4 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

2026-10-27 … 2026-10-30: 49, 44, 22, 0

## Spotted in now

- Top new repositories this week: #183

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
