IronBarcode fully supports macOS for .NET Standard and Core out-of-the-box for both Intel and Apple silicon architectures - no code changes are required to support Apple users or developers.

We value support for macOS because many .NET developers, including members of our own team, enjoy developing .NET applications on JetBrains Rider and Visual Studio Code for macOS.
