Description
### Page link:
https://bazel.build/concepts/platforms
### Problem description (include actual vs expected text, if applicable):
This page says
```
Apple
[Apple rules](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_apple) do not support platforms and are not yet scheduled for support.
You can still use platform APIs with Apple builds (for example, when building with a mixture of Apple rules and pure C++) with [platform mappings](https://bazel.build/concepts/platforms#platform-mappings).
```
I'm not close to the details, but this might not be true anymore:

Research direction
Start at the Apple section of https://bazel.build/concepts/platforms and compare its statement with the status discussed in rules_apple issue 1658. Confirm whether the paragraph is still accurate; done means updating the page text if it is outdated, while preserving the platform-mappings context when applicable.
