I am interested how am I able to create a .saver format file for my macOS and which program do I need. My goal is to make custom screensavers using graphic programs. Tried to search an information about this, but couldn't find anything that would help due to I'm newbie. If you'll guide me though this I appreciate.
How to create .saver file?
If you create a new Xcode project that's a option "Screen Saver" If you have ever noticed, but, it's in Objective-C🙁(which I can give no suggestions on)
But if you integrate Xcode toolchain(if you can find it) into your app and learn about OC, maybe you can make a app that will compile your user's input into OC Code, then if you can, compile the OC code into .saver.
But this is really a good app idea but really, really hard.
What makabaka1880 said plus…
On the language front, it is possible to create a screen saver in Swift as long as you target mac OS 10.14.4 or later, where the Swift runtime is built in to the system. So, while the template is in Objective-C there’s nothing stopping you from removing that code and replacing it with Swift code.
