What handles interactions with Metal rendered images on macOS?

I have started learning Metal and the source text I was reading mentioned that interactions with images rendered to the screen is handled by Core Animation layers (CAMetalLayer) in iOS, but had no mention for any other platform. I am guessing for the other "mobile" platforms the same thing applies as iOS, but what handles this interaction for macOS, or is it also the same?
