| When a new major version of macOS (ex: `12.0`) is released, we will start to use this version after a minimum of two minor Xcode releases have passed. This will allow for any major bugs and issues to be resolved. Release timing for this is entirely dependent on Apple's own release cycle, but will always be announced on our link:https://discuss.circleci.com/c/announcements/39[Discuss forum]. | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment.
We might as well modernize this to "26.0", no?
Update the Xcode release & deprecation policy with the new deprecation policy and ensure the rest of the document is consistent with current practices.
Make the documentation's examples more relevant to modern times by updating the version number used in examples.
