This document provides a quick overview of some macOS specific features in
the Python distribution.

Compilers for building on macOS
===============================

The core developers primarily test builds on macOS with Apple's compiler tools,
either Xcode or the Command Line Tools. For these we only support building with
a compiler that includes an SDK that targets the OS on the build machine, that is
the version of Xcode that shipped with the OS version or one newer.

For example, for macOS 12 we support Xcode 13 and Xcode 14 (or the corresponding
Command Line Tools).

Building with other compilers, such as GCC, likely works, but is not actively supported.
