When you build a great iPad app, you get the bones of a decent Mac and Vision Pro app

This is only possible because of all the work that has gone into Catalyst and SwiftUI, and has no impact on AppKit stuff

It’s clearly not there yet, no thanks to many years of Apple insisting the iPad must do all things entirely differently from the Mac

Precise input, a file manager, external storage, etc. weren’t a thing for the first half of the iPad’s existence. They’re paying for it now

They’ve got the chance now to set up the tooling to make one great app that adapts well to all of these platforms, and it will take massive investment

But it all flows through iPadOS (by way of, of course, the iPhone). So yeah, I don’t think it’s going away anytime soon
