What kind of documentation issue is this?

Unclear or confusing documentation

Affected page

https://beeware.org/about/overview/

Describe the issue

There is currently no canonical location with a simple explanation of what is supported by BeeWare on each platform. As it stands, there are some necessarily complex matrices with that info, and information spread across API documentation.

Suggested improvement

We would benefit from including one short paragraph per platform. This should happen as follows:

  • This section should be added on the beeware.org About>What is BeeWare? page, between the first section and the "Meet Brutus" section.
  • It should be titled "What can I do with BeeWare?".
  • It should include a short paragraph for each platform, explaining what specifically is possible with each one. For example:
    • "On macOS, you can produce console or GUI applications, packaged as .app bundles, DMG bundles, or PKG installer, fully signed and notarized for independent or macOS App Store distribution."
