Sources and further reading

The guide prefers Apple documentation for platform behavior and official maintainer documentation for community-tool behavior. A tool's own compatibility claim is identified as such; it is not treated as independent verification.

Source policy

Search-optimized clone sites, certificate aggregators, anonymous compatibility charts, and pages impersonating tool maintainers are not authoritative. They may reveal a reported problem, but this guide does not use them to establish compatibility or safety.

Dates and release claims should be checked again after an Apple OS release or major signing-tool update.
