System Requirements
* Windows 10 (64-bit)
* macOS 10.14
* Linux (64-bit) (no specific versions)
(note - it does not list screen resolution or disk capacity requirements; screen resolution and disk capacity seem to not be a major focus, or at least not as NB as OS requirements)
Peter Jonas suggested that we link to the relevant Qt compatibility site rather (e.g. https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/supported-platforms.html). I can understand not wanting to duplicate information, however, I have the following arguments against just providing a link
- MuseScore 4.0 development is somewhat in limbo: It happens on Qt 5.15, however, it has restrictions which effectively make it compatible with Qt 6.2 (for now). See Musescore 4.0 will not run on various operating systems
for more info. - Users will have to interpret an external resource as to the requirements. By listing it locally, we are "the masters of our own domain" and control the message.
