You mean Cocoa?

Cocoa is a very high level API. It is a solution to a problem. It is not
something you use to build another GUI manager. Cocoa is already a GUI
manager. In general developers will use Carbon to port a GUI like SWT or
Trolltech QT. It is more low level and better for this kind of work.
