I've read two pages of the article and I've still no idea what it's talking about. They're clearly going for the "shrouded in mystery" marketing approach, but I haven't got time for that.

Can the title be updated to describe what this is actually about rather than just having the name of an almond-based confectionery item?

Marzipan is an internal framework for running apps written for iPhone on macOS, set to be publicly released to developers this June at WWDC. Since the UI paradigms for the platform differ, it's an open question what will happen in these cases and whether the resultant apps will be of high quality. Many developers predict this as being an opportunity for Apple to adopt a new UI paradigm for macOS apps that matches that of iOS more closely.
I have no idea why you are being downvoted. I submitted the article and even I admit in hindsight that neither the title nor the article is clear to someone who isn’t steeped in the Apple ecosystem.
