Top-Level Menu Visibility in SwiftUI for macOS

Read Original

This technical article explores the challenge of conditionally showing or hiding top-level menus (like a Debug menu) in a macOS app built with SwiftUI's new app lifecycle. It explains the limitations of SwiftUI's @CommandsBuilder for top-level menu logic and provides a practical workaround by dropping into AppKit to programmatically manage menu visibility based on app state.
