#### Software

Zui's [test automation](#automated-testing) runs on Monterey 12 and
Zui's [test automation](#automated-testing) runs on Ventura 13.7 and
therefore this is the macOS version on which we are best able to ensure quality
and prevent regressions. Several Zui developers also run macOS Sonoma 14.1
and prevent regressions. Several Zui developers also run macOS Sonoma 14.7
and regularly perform ad hoc testing with it to reproduce reported issues.

#### Hardware

The build procedure for Zui's macOS releases creates binaries intended to
run on Intel-based Mac hardware. Zui releases are not yet available that
are built specifically for [M1-based hardware](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_M1).
However, Apple's [Rosetta 2](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861) makes
it possible to run Intel-targeted binaries on M1-based Macs.

M1-based hardware has only recently become
[available](https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/issues/2187) for
our automation where we run tests and create builds for Zui. Therefore our
planned work to deliver M1-specific builds ([zui/1266](https://github.com/brimdata/zui/issues/1266))
is still ongoing. In the meantime, please [open an issue](./Troubleshooting.md#opening-an-issue)
if you experience a problem specific to M1-based Macs.
The build procedure for Zui's macOS releases creates separate binaries
intended to run on Intel-based or [M1-based](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_M1)
Mac hardware.
