If you've updated to macOS Sonoma, and you've got some spare time to test something, we've had a report of an issue with Toga. We've got a candidate fix... but no machines that have been upgraded to Sonoma to test it with.

https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2182

Any reports on whether this PR works or not would be most appreciated.

The most notable item: The Toga audit is complete! We now have 100% code coverage in our test suite - including all GUI behavior! Toga 0.4, including all these improvements, will be released soon.

Briefcase 0.3.16 has been released! It contains the new support for App Store-compatible iOS binaries, a guarantee that macOS apps are universal, no matter which platform they've been built on, and significantly improved error checking for architecture and tool compatibility.

It also formally downgrades our level of support for AppImage to "best effort" - we'll apply bug fixes if they are reported, but we no longer include AppImage in our CI checks. https://pypi.org/project/briefcase/

Rubicon-ObjC 0.4.7 has been released! This release improves the debug output of types like NSPoint and NSRect, corrects an issue with the use of blocks on M1, and improves annotation support. https://pypi.org/project/rubicon-objc/0.4.7/

PEP 730, proposing the addition of iOS as a Tier 3 supported platform in Python 3.13, is now open for discussion: https://peps.python.org/pep-0730/

If you have opinions or thoughts about this work, please contribute to the thread on the Python discussion forum: https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-730-adding-ios-as-a-supported-platform/35854

This is the first time there has been a PEP for adding a new Tier 3 platform, so we're using the iOS PEP as a way to work the kinks in the process. Once that has been done, we're planning to submit a PEP for Android support as well. Watch this space!

@hackalog Thanks for the heads up on the link - looks like a stray character got stuck to the end. I've edited it now.

Python 3.12.0 has been released - and on the same day, we’ve landed the first build of the support packages for Apple platforms (macOS, iOS, tvOS and watchOS). https://github.com/beeware/Python-Apple-support/releases/tag/3.12-b1 We're still waiting on availability 3.12.0 in CI runners before we can finalize support, but the next Briefcase release (coming very soon) will include this support.

In preparation for a release update, BeeWare's Python support package has been updated for Python 3.12! The build is working for Python 3.12.0rc3, so we should be in a position to release Python 3.12 support for iOS on or near the same day as Python 3.12.0 final drops. https://github.com/beeware/Python-Apple-support/tree/3.12

About a year ago, we modified our iOS support to support dynamically loaded binary modules. We then discovered that while the app works fine on local builds, Apple was rejecting those apps when they were submitted to the App Store.

Today - we’re back! Apple has just approved our first app using dynamic loading, using a pre-release version of a set of fixes for Briefcase and the Apple support packages. These fixes will be part of the next Briefcase release.

After almost 10 months of work, Toga has a test suite with 100% branch coverage on macOS, iOS and GTK. There's still some code reviews pending; and there's still some work to do on Windows and Android - but we're getting very close to being able to add some exciting new features!

More Toga-@textualize fun - now we have dialogs!

Just in time for the @pyconau sprints: The terminal backend for Toga (using @textualize) now applies Toga's layout correctly!

Are you at @pyconau? So are we! There’s a BeeWare-adjacent talk on Saturday (Hall E, 11:20); and we’re around for the full sprints. Come say hi!

Just released: Travertino v0.3.0. Not a high profile project; this is the library that underpins Toga's CSS-subset styling language (and also Colosseum, BeeWare's attempt at implementing a full CSS3-compliant layout engine). This release adds the ability to track minimum layouts in the same pass as final layouts.

Oh my... is this... a @textualize backend for Toga?

Why yes. Yes it is.

Is there still a lot of work to do? Yes, there is. But - we have signs of life.

If you want to have a play, the code is here for now: https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2065
