The Mac Pro community already has the Big Sur up and running via OpenCore and now suddenly seems unlikely that Apple will drastically alter the hardware requirements for Intel Macs moving forward. However, Apple will still sell Intel Macs for two more years suggesting several more years of support. I've updated this intro a few times, and the inevitable finally happened, Apple announced it would be shifting to its own ARM-based CPUs. It has been continuously updated for over two years and will continue to be updated as long as there is a community to make new discoveries.

This is less a how-to guide/manual than it is a roadmap to primary sources by other brilliant people, written to be accessible to both new and advanced users. The information is out there but knowing what is possible, what questions to ask, and where to find it isn't nearly as easy.
