Hello! Does anyone know if there is something like
Pair to Mac
(https://learn.microsoft.com/pl-pl/xamarin/ios/get-started/installation/windows/connecting-to-mac/) in kotlin multiplatform world? I have used that functionality in visual studio a long time ago and I think kotlin multiplatfrom could realy benefit if JB added a way to work on iOS projects without a need for switching between windows and macOS machines 😄

JetBrains Gateway might provide part of what you are looking for once it supports macOS hosts.

@Rick Clephas is it possible to connect multiple clients to single IDE backend? I am looking for a solution where I can have one macOS machine in my network and developers can use it as host for testing kotlin multiplatform app on iOS. AFAIK you can run iOS app from android studio on the same computer so it should not be that complicated to run it via some ssh client 🤔
Also ideally all compilation and other heavy weight operations should be done on client machine 😄 I want to use macOS only as a proxy for obtaining provisioning profile and whatever else is needed to build iOS app

Yeah you should be able to connect multiple clients to the same machine. However you won’t be able to run the compilation (of the iOS/Apple targets) on the client since that’s the part that needs to run on a macOS machine.
