The difference between this project and others is that it is built on its own engine, and not taken from other ready-made repositories. It completely copies the logic, animations, and behavior of a real Dynamic Island on an iPhone, unlike other projects. The main goal is to make the project as native as possible, both in terms of design and interaction.
This actually looks pretty clean. Honestly, this is the kind of small Mac tweak that makes daily use feel nicer.
