Présentation.app 3.0 is out!

Apr 14, 2022

I am happy to announce the release of Présentation.app 3.0 !

This release is a major code overhaul following python2 support being dropped by Apple with Monterey. The code has been Python 2/3 compatible for a long time, but relied on python2 and the PyObjC bindings provided by Apple (which had a lot of shortcomings to be worked around).

Switching to python3/recent PyObjC allowed for a major code clean-up, but at a cost: the PyObjC bindings are now embedded in the app and the app size is more than hundred times bigger (from 113kB to 15.5MB :).

This release also includes many small fixes and improvements. The app is also now signed which makes it possible again to access the video camera and easier to install. Signing the app is only possible by buying a membership to the apple developer program, at the cost of 99 USD a year.

You now know what I will do with your contributions…
