According to Apple we should new build Thumbnail or Preview Extensions instead of the old Quick Look generators which will be deprecated (probably in Big Sur).

There is also no Option to create a Quick Look plug-in project in Xcode anymore. Instead you need to create an application that contains a quicklook extension target.

My question is: Can I not create a standalone Quick Look extension (or plug-in) anymore to preview files without a useless wrapper app that fulfils no purpose? Has anyone tried or found out if this is still an option?

Thank you.

  • Did you figure anything out with regards to this? Looks like some quicklook plugins are not working on Big Sur. – eivindml Nov 18 '20 at 08:32
  • Unfortunatrly standalone QLPlugins no longer work with Big Sur as these were deprecated in favor of the new App Extensions API. – Anubis Nov 19 '20 at 10:05
