 ## Changelog
 
+ - Added `GLFW_USE_METALKIT` to cmake build options to make metal support optional 
+ - [Cocoa] Added `glfwResetCocoaMTKFramesize` function for metal view resizing
+ - [Cocoa] Added `glfwAddCocoaMTKSubview` function for better metal support
  - Added `GLFW_PLATFORM` init hint for runtime platform selection (#1958)
  - Added `GLFW_ANY_PLATFORM`, `GLFW_PLATFORM_WIN32`, `GLFW_PLATFORM_COCOA`,
    `GLFW_PLATFORM_WAYLAND`, `GLFW_PLATFORM_X11` and `GLFW_PLATFORM_NULL` symbols to
