Should macos be supported right now when using CMP? Getting following for a project I just tried it with
Copy code
Execution failed for task ':common:syncComposeResourcesForIos'.

> Unknown iOS platform: 'macosx'
k
There's no official support macos targets

Looks like that's the same for watchos as well?

Does anyone use Compose for macOS (native, no JVM)? I am currently looking into it as for my project the performance and startup time appears to be so much better native than JVM. Curious if there are any things I should look out for that are broken. Resources appear broken which is fixed by https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/pull/5169. Also noticed some keyboard shortcuts which are broken which is probably an easy fix. Anything I am missing?

Interesting that you find it perform better than JVM. Given that Kotlin in jvm is known to be much faster than Kotlin native.

Yes I also find it interesting. The JVM version is in production but users are complaining about slow startup times and stuttering (animations, but also especially noticeable with window resizing). This is partially due to running Intel build on Silicon as universal binaries are unsupported (required for App Store), but even a Silicon build has the same performance issues. So this is not the issue. I am currently porting my app to native macOS where all performance issues are gone. It is already up and running and it is so much better.
