I don’t know the answer to those questions, and I don’t think Apple knows either. Would those great iCloud features from a couple years ago be further built out? Would the Mac App Store offer more enticing terms for developers? Would Apple News look completely different? Still, I wonder what would macOS look like if Apple were truly focused on it. This upcoming project could make that a lot easier for developers. If Apple wants the Mac to thrive as a platform, it needs desktop apps to be built for the Mac instead of the web. But it also feels somewhat like it’s coming out of necessity. Apple, it has long been speculated, wants to switch the Mac over to its self-designed processors, which are designed to run iOS code. More than any release in recent years, Mojave is a clear sign of where macOS is going - not just toward iOS, but directly absorbing some of its code and sensibilities.
