CI for Mac and iOS is a disaster. We manage builds and deploys for multiple languages, platforms and cloud providers in our CI system, the _last_ thing we want is another platform to check for Mac builds.
- isodev 3y agoWell that's your choice of course. I like Xcode Cloud because it knows what I expect for building an app and gets the job done. I don't like systems that need me to fiddle with infinite number of config files before they can do anything useful for me.
- maccard 3y agoThat's fair. I think the problem for me is that there's no in between. We use buildkite, and _everything_ goes through buildkite. We compile native desktop apps, monolithic Kotlin web backends, deploy clients to multiple different app store like platforms, servers to AWS, and the workflow is the same. Click new build, wait, fill in the form. That's just not an option for mac or iOS in the same way it is for Windows.
