It facilitates interactions between the hardware and software components. The kernel is a core component of the OS. Launching a new simulator creates a separate user space. User space is the system memory allocated to run applications, whereas kernel space is the system memory allocated to run the OS kernel and device drivers. At a more technical level, a simulator is a separate user space running on the macOS kernel. It helps rapid prototyping and testing builds by simulating different devices. The simulator is a great tool to simulate iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, and watchOS on the Mac.
Before you embark on your world tour, you’ll need to understand what a simulator is. Instead, you’ll use this app as a foundation to learn the various simulator options.
