When I compile the app and make an executable, is there a minimum Mac OS version required to run it? That is, how do I discover the earliest version of the OS that can run my app?

On recent versions of Xojo, you can set that in the Mac target in the IDE. Earlier than that, it’s defined by Xojo in their minimum system requirements.
Keep in mind though that declares and plugins can also limit you to a particular minimum version.
That’s exactly what I’m looking for.
I was looking in the wrong places. I was looking at the Build tab in Settings and at the Build command.
Settings tha only apply to Mac are on the Mac tab. The build tab is generic to all platforms.
I was thinking about this some more… are you saying that the minimum version that will run Xojo 2025 r3 is also the minimum OS version that will run compiled apps?
The system requirements page in the documentation has this information detailed in a hopefully clear way.
