Apple uses the network framework for everything related to networking including http and TLS: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/network . I guess everything which comes with the OS itself makes use of it. But does this apply to third party apps too?
On other operating system like Windows or Linux some applications (in particular browsers) sometimes come with there own TLS stack and certificate store.
Is this also true when those apps are installed on MacOS? Or do they need to use the functions which the network framework provides and also the native certificate store?
