NativeScript
⚡ Write Native with TypeScript ✨ Best of all worlds (TypeScript, Swift, Objective C, Kotlin, Java, Dart). Use what you love ❤️ Angular, React, Solid, Svelte, Vue with: iOS (UIKit, SwiftUI), Android (View, Jetpack Compose), Flutter and you name it compatible.
NativeScript is a hybrid mobile app framework that allows developers to build truly native iOS and Android apps using JavaScript, TypeScript, or Angular. Unlike frameworks that rely on WebViews, NativeScript provides direct access to native APIs, ensuring apps perform like native applications. It is ideal for developers who want the convenience of JavaScript while leveraging full native functionality.

swift-composable-architecture
A library for building applications in a consistent and understandable way, with composition, testing, and ergonomics in mind.
When developing new apps with SwiftUI, TCA (The Composable Architecture) is likely the first architecture that comes to mind. Having used TCA in production for over a year, I've experienced its benefits in terms of consistent implementation and testability. However, TCA can become a constraint during certain phases of app development. During the initial app launch phase when concepts aren't yet solidified, rapid iteration of creation and destruction is essential, making speed and flexibility more important than robust implementations with comprehensive tests. While TCA is convenient, its strong writing constraints can turn what would be a few minutes of pure Swift implementation into hours of struggle. (I've even reached out to Point-Free about this.) TCA is an excellent architecture when you're on track and requirements don't fundamentally change, but we determined it wasn't suitable for our current needs.

I have been using Loop(https://github.com/MrKai77/Loop) after trying some of the alternatives listed here and wanted to post that as it was not mentioned. It is something that solves what I was looking for in window management on macos and just putting it out here :).

As a both old Linux and now decade user of MacOS, after I got used to no middle-click paste and no focus-follows-mouse:
1. Keyboard shortcuts are Emacs, Ctrl-A: start of line, E: end of line, K: kill selected or to end of line, Y to paste, etc. https://support.apple.com/en-au/102650#text
2. Karabiner elements (FOSS) fixes keyboard mappings outside of the Settings: https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/
3. I have the dock on the left hand side, not bottom and I have a 2 monitor (iMac 5K 27"+ Dell 4K 27") setup with the iMac flat in front of me and the curve/2nd to the right. Menu bar is then close to the main windows.
4. Menu bar widgets etc are fixable with thaw https://github.com/stonerl/Thaw
5. Window management via keyboard is fixable with rectangle https://rectangleapp.com/
6. Use Macports to add all the Linux/Unix utilities, works with MacOS properly (eg Python/Java frameworks). Ports can have variants, plus you can have multiple versions installed side-by-side with `port select`. https://www.macports.org/
Not sure about fonts, on a 5K iMac they're fine and the 4K Dell works too. You need to use a resolution that fits with Mac's ideas of resolution, so I've got the 5K and 4K both at 2560x1440, which is Mac's idea of 2x resolution.
