Michael Steeber - 9:25 am EST

Benjamin Mayo - 9:12 am EST

Apple rejecting Electron apps from Mac App Store due to private API usage
Benjamin Mayo - 5:52 am EST

On iOS, all apps must go through the App Store. On macOS, the Mac App Store is just one method of distribution and developers are free to publish their apps independently on their own website. This means app rejection policies on macOS are not as painful as with iPhone or iPad, but they are nevertheless significant.

Developers are reporting that apps made using Electron (which is a framework that allows companies to ship web apps in a native app wrapper) are now being rejected by the automated Mac App Store review process.
