It seems like pack for Xcode is not working because of the way the frameworks get added via Carthage, I am trying the CocoaPods plugin to circumvent this just checking if anyone had some tips

Carthage allows a pre-compiled framework

is it in the CartFile or somewhere else I’m a little out of my element

so it took a lot of trial and error

a fat framework has all the different cpu abis in it. Kotlin native gives you a gradle task to do that

Then you basically zip up the framework, and do a github release with the .framework.zip file in the release files

if you look at what carthage pulls, it gives you the compiled frameworks - I think you find the unzipped farmework in there

Carthage has a lot of limitations around this

hope this helps though

but I was able to figure it out both times pretty easily with the help of someone from my ios team who knew carthage

oh - you know what it was!

There was another way of releasing precompiled frameworks that I could never get working too. The Firebase iOS teams use it. You could try copying them

Thank you very much for your help

OH - a few gotchas that I’m remembering

I was creating the zip file with the gradle / java zip support - That didn’t work. carthage couldn’t unzip the file when I created a zip that way

How do you build a framework that contains arm64 and x86 binaries?
