1 GoKawiil brief on this topic

Dactyl builds a browser-based SwiftUI renderer to power native app development

Dactyl has detailed how its cross-platform SwiftUI renderer works, describing it as a WebAssembly port of the iOS simulator that lets developers preview and build native apps for iOS, Android and web without a Mac. The system reimplements SwiftUI and related Apple frameworks like Charts, MapKit and ARKit in Swift, compiling apps to Wasm and linking them against Dactyl's own version of SwiftUI instead of Apple's.
