When a #macOS app supports versions, it's really quite cool and useful. I wish more did.

You mean like Time Machine or something else?

@jonhendry Sort of like that, but it's a separate feature which doesn't require having Time Machine set up. They added this a long time ago now. It lets you view and revert to previous versions of the document you're looking at, but the app has to support it. https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/view-and-restore-past-versions-of-documents-mh40710/mac

That's like a vague memory I have from a long-ago WWDC, like “was that ever a thing?”

Is there any documentation for what an app has to do to support it?

@jonhendry I think it's all part of NSDocument. My impression is it's pretty trivial if you're already doing all the other document stuff, but I could be wrong.
