## MacOS Tweaks
32+
33+
By default, MacOS enables font smoothing which causes text to appear quite differently from the Windows version. This can be disabled system-wide using the following command:
34+
35+
```bash
36+
defaults -currentHost write -g AppleFontSmoothing -int 0
37+
```
38+
39+
A restart is required for this to take effect.

Current development is done using Visual Studio 2022 and Qt v6.2+ on Windows. This is also known to build successfully on various Linux distributions and macOS. Other platforms/compilers should be usable with minor modifications.
