FYI you need a MacBook Pro 2016 to use sidecar.

  A terminal command could be used to enable Sidecar on older Macs, on Catalina beta. defaults write com.apple.sidecar.display allowAllDevices -bool YES I don't know whether it works on the release build.

    It didn't work for my 2015 MBP.

    They deactivate the command in beta 2. For Apple, you and your 2015 Macbook Pro are just poor losers. Now, You're free to buy a new one.

        Ugh, is there no better way to patch that?
