Alongside a contribution to the Development Fund, Apple will provide engineering expertise and additional resources to Blender and its broader development community to help support Blender artists and developers, according to the announcement.
Blender CEO Ton Roosendaal said the announcement means that "macOS will be back as a complete supported Blender platform."
