Hi Tim --
We are using GitHub actions as CI these days. Both OSVM [1] and squeak-app [2][3] document the steps necessary to build and bundle stuff.
I would not say that it's simple. :-/
Best, Marcel

What is the current build setup for these things? Do we have to run platform specific jobs or is it practical to have a single system?
I'm interested in how one might build a Mac bundle, for example, that might have a custom name, icons, image file, other resources. I recall some quite long threads about the joy of signing Mac application bundles too.
And can Mac & Windows applications run without open windows these days? Again, I recall interesting issues with this years ago but nothing from more recent times. Imagine I want to run a Seaside server; no open windows, write errors to a suitable log, stuff like that.
