The 'exile' of Steve Jobs from Apple following a 1985 boardroom struggle led to the creation of NeXT, a period often overlooked but critical to modern computing history. During these years, Jobs developed the NeXTSTEP operating system, which introduced advanced object-oriented programming and sophisticated graphics that later became the bedrock of macOS and iOS. This era served as more than just a bridge between Apple stints; it was a period of intense technical innovation and professional maturation. The eventual acquisition of NeXT by Apple in 1996 didn't just facilitate Jobs’ return, it provided the essential software architecture that powered Apple's massive resurgence in the 21st century.
