Any updates on this?

Curious if this is still being pursued

Any updates?

@ClassicOldSong I'm not sure what happened with Mac Catalyst support on the iOS JavaScriptCore runtime, but now all development for the iOS runtime is based on V8 instead.

This merged PR from 2020 suggests that the iOS V8 runtime, at least, does support Mac Catalyst.

I'll caution that there are no guides on setting up a Mac Catalyst project, as although it may theoretically be supported, it's not an active focus. I'm not aware of any example projects. If you get stuck, we could try assisting on Discord, though I suspect most of us have never attempted to run a Mac Catalyst project before.

@ClassicOldSong I believe @tjvantoll wrote a guide on how to set up a Mac Catalyst project (as an experimental proof of concept) for NativeScript, but I can't find it anymore. It was a long time ago, but some of the information may still be relevant.
