Monal IM: Insights into Monal Development

TLDR:

_Info: Monal will stop support for iOS 12, iOS 13 and macOS Catalina!

Boot media created. All set an ready for this weekend. Woot!

sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Monterey.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/USBDrive

Universal apps will be made to run on iOS/iPadOS, and macOS. Create once, run on all.

Now talking about macOS on Apple Silicone, and how the OS takes advantage of what the M1MAX has to offer.

The features that macOS Monterey will bring, albeit minor, will made for a better “quality of living”. I am looking forward to Notes, and the iCloud+ integration (Private Relay, Hide My Email). It also bring macOS cohesively close to iOS. My work 2015 iMac and M1 Mini will get it, so looking forward to it!
