Cupertino, California — Apple today previewed macOS Big Sur, the latest version of the world’s most advanced desktop operating system.
macOS Big Sur introduces a beautiful redesign that is entirely new yet instantly familiar.
Safari is packed with new features, including a customizable start page, elegantly designed and more powerful tabs,
quick and easy translation, and a new Privacy Report.
The updated Messages app lets Mac users send and receive more personal and expressive messages,
and easily keep track of and interact within group messages.
Maps also offers an all-new experience with immersive features for exploring and navigating the world.
“macOS Big Sur is a major update that advances the legendary combination of the power of UNIX with the ease of use of the Mac, and delivers our biggest update to design in more than a decade,” said Craig Federighi,
Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering.
“With its modern and clean look, huge improvements to key apps including Safari, Messages,
and Maps, and new privacy features, we think everyone is going to love the breakthrough experience that macOS Big Sur offers.”

Apple announces Mac transition to Apple silicon

Cupertino, California — In a historic day for the Mac, Apple today announced it will transition the Mac to its world-class custom silicon to deliver industry-leading performance and powerful new technologies.
Developers can now get started updating their apps to take advantage of the advanced capabilities of Apple silicon in the Mac.
This transition will also establish a common architecture across all Apple products, making it far easier for developers to write and optimize their apps for the entire ecosystem.
Apple today also introduced macOS Big Sur, the next major release of macOS,
which delivers its biggest update in more than a decade and includes technologies that will ensure a smooth and seamless transition to Apple silicon.
Developers can easily convert their existing apps to run on Apple silicon, taking advantage of its powerful technologies and performance.
And for the first time, developers can make their iOS and iPadOS apps available on the Mac without any modifications.

前回に引き続きもう一本、WWDCで発表があったMac関係の情報をお伝えします。macOS Big Surが発表されました。デザインがiOS,iPad OSにより近づき、Mac OS X以来のデザイン刷新となります。
macOS Catalinaより機能として増えていた、Mac Catalystの仕組みが標準のアプリにも利用されており、マップのアプリについてはiOS,iPad OSのものを利用したものとなるようです。

またついにApple siliconという名のintel CPUからMacのARMアーキテクチャへの移行も正式に発表されました。
SoCアーキテクチャの共通化により、iOS,iPad OSのアプリがMac上で動かせることもできるようになり、
Macの能力をフル活用できるようになり、映像編集などにおいては非常に重宝されそうと言えそうです。

ただ残念ながら、windowsをboot campでの利用は現状できないようで、結構不便に感じる人は一定数いそうな感じがします。
