Still plain old Swift (or when the itch strikes, Objective-C) and AppKit. I don’t really build for platforms other than macOS because I haven’t found toolkits that feel right elsewhere. I would do just about anything for multiplatform AppKit.
AppKit is indeed great. Pity Apple doesn’t give it much love anymore.
I've built stuff in Qt before and it's great, but it's super expensive if you want to use it for proprietary work.
One option would be using C# + AppKit on Mac and then WinUI on Windows, while sharing the view model and model layers between platforms with something like MvvmCross.
Here's my attempt from 2021: https://github.com/QotoQot/Octospace
