What problem does it solve?

macOS app development often requires boilerplate setup for window management, menu bars, document-based workflows, and platform-specific adjustments. This Skill consolidates patterns and best practices to accelerate building native macOS apps with SwiftUI.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Window management: multiple window support, window styles, sizing, and coordinated windows.
  • Menu bar and commands: app menus, keyboard shortcuts, and context menus aligned with macOS conventions.
  • NSWindow integration and Mac Catalyst: bridging AppKit with SwiftUI, status bar items, and Catalyst considerations.
  • Document-based apps: scaffolding with DocumentGroup, autosave/restoration, and simple document workflows.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to generate a minimal macOS SwiftUI app that demonstrates a windowed interface, a basic menu bar, and a document-based workflow.
