I’m using Rik (GNUstep runtime 1.9) or NesedahRik (gcc, GNUstep
runtime 2.0) with most of my installations. I’m using
SystemPreferences.app to set the menu style to Mac style (horizontal
menu bar). You may also use:
```
defaults write NSInterfaceStyleDefault NSMacintoshInterfaceStyle
defaults write NSMenuInterfaceStyle NSMacintoshInterfaceStyle
```
Look and feel of default apps already seems pretty decent to me then.
Bertrand is also a little bit humble regarding his work to prettify the
GNUstep appearance:
If you want some nice icons, 3D and shadow effects I suggest to follow
Betrand’s setup using Compton, Icons and a WindowMaker theme which he
has documented here:

If you turn off the dock of wmaker and use GWorkspace and its dock you
will get pretty decent looks similar to these:

I’m using this setup with clang (GNUstep runtime 1.9, libobjc 1.9) and
a Raspberry Pi 3B+ (armhf, 32bit system). It looks pretty familiar for
Mac users, runs faster than Mate Desktop and has very low memory
footprint (about 200MB of RAM).
