On-device Dynamic Island on Mac on a Mac
Dynamic Island on Mac is implemented in the native Swift app, not as a web view in the notch. The closed notch is a Mac-native live-activity stack inspired by glanceable iPhone UI, not an iOS port.

Why native matters
A real Mac utility can follow Spaces, displays, and system appearance. Dynamic Island on Mac is part of that host.
What stays in-tree
First-party Dynamic Island on Mac lives in the app. Third-party packages cannot load unsigned code.
