I assume they are using XCode to package the bundle because of signing so the app is able to be packaged for the app store? If you just need to create an .app

If you just need to create an .app bundle you can manually create the folder structure and .plist files which allows you to run the rust binary directly while looking the same to a user as an XCode bundled app.
- mwcampbell 10y agoYou don't even need to use Xcode proper to code-sign a Mac app. Just use the codesign command-line utility. I've developed a Mac app using only the command-line tools that come with Xcode (via a build system, of course), not Xcode itself. To submit to the Mac App Store, I use the Application Loader app that comes with Xcode. Edit: But I do use Xcode to build, run, and submit iOS apps. Never tried to do it any other way for that platform.
