Hello 👋,
How are you doing? I am writing this newsletter on a macOS 12 beta. Looks like all the beta released in the last month (macOS, iPadOS, iOS and Android 12) are without breaking issues. I installed iOS 15 on my secondary iPhone and used for a week and installed it on the main device today. Hope nothing breaks in future beta.
Do you install a beta on your phone or laptop? Do let us know here.
Hackathon Alert:
Are you guys ready for few challenges? HarperDB partnering with Hashnode and conducts an online hackathon.
