Dynamic Island on Mac on macOS 14 Sonoma
NotNotch’s deployment target is macOS 14, so Dynamic Island on Mac is built to run on Sonoma and later. The closed notch is a Mac-native live-activity stack inspired by glanceable iPhone UI, not an iOS port.

Why Sonoma is the floor
The SwiftUI notch host and several system APIs assume macOS 14. Dynamic Island on Mac follows that floor.
Later systems
The same Dynamic Island on Mac path is intended to keep working through macOS 27 without bumping the minimum.
