Is it possible to launch a flutter application on a remote mac from a windows pc like xamarin does with visual studio? MS visual studio uses xcode remotely to build and run on emulators and physical devices, can this be done with flutter in android studio or visual studio code?

I have the problem that I'm not able to see the list of iOS simulators in Visual Studio Debug Target on my Windows PC
I've just made a total upgrade of my Xamarin development environment including now latest VS 2022, latest OS on my Mac, latest XCode version 14 and latest version of Xamarin on my PC and Mac. I have successfully paired to my Mac from Visual Studio.
On my Mac I've just tried to refresh the list of Debug devices as described in Microsoft Docs:
Delete your ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices folder.
Run killall -9 com.apple.CoreSimulator.CoreSimulatorService.
Run xcrun simctl list devices.
.. but still no result. All I can select in my Debug Target is Local Device, Remote Device and Simulator.
Before this upgrade I had no problem seeing all the simulators.
I will really appreciate if anybody have some good ideas of what I can do to solve this.
Following is my list of installed components from VS About box:
Xamarin 17.3.0.296 (d17-3#a0ff24b)
Visual Studio extension to enable development for Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Android.
Xamarin Designer 17.3.0.208 (remotes/origin/d17-3#e4f67afef)
Visual Studio extension to enable Xamarin Designer tools in Visual Studio.
Xamarin Templates 17.2.28 (9b3d244)
Templates for building iOS, Android, and Windows apps with Xamarin and Xamarin.Forms.
Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Mac SDK 15.12.0.2 (87f98a75e)
Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Mac Reference Assemblies and MSBuild support
Please be noted that XCode 14 is not yet supported in Xamarin.iOS or .NET MAUI, you need downgrade your Xcode version to 13.4.1 and could download it from the downloads page in the Apple Developer Portal. For more information, you can refer to https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/15954
Update:
Xcode 14 is currently supported and if there are any other issues, please continue to post back to the GitHub.Thanks!
I have this same issue even after installing VS 17.3.6. I have no list of iOS simulators and I get a warning that this version of Xcode is not supported.
Xamarin makes it possible to connect to a remote iOS simulator:
The Remoted iOS Simulator for Windows allows you to test your apps on
an iOS simulator displayed in Windows alongside Visual Studio 2019 and
Visual Studio 2017.
Does a similar technology exist for flutter?
Specifically, I would like to integrate Android Studio on Linux with a remote Mac hosting Xcode Server.
I am trying to learn more about Xamarin in my free time. So far I have created a simple Xamarin Forms app with a UWP target and an Android target. I want to add an IOS target now.
Therefore I have purchased a MacBook Pro with Mojave 10.14.6. I have installed Xcode 11 (11A420a) and Visual Studio 2019 version 8.3.1 (I believe) on the Mac. I have opened Visual Studio 2019 on my Windows PC (version 16.0.3) and successfully paired the Mac.
I then created a Hello World Xamarin Forms app that is targeted by IOS on the Windows PC. The app runs, however I just see a black screen in the simulator. I have spent all day Googling this and have got no-where. Is version 11 of Xcode supported by Visual Studio 2019 and Xamarin on a Windows PC? What can I do?
Is version 11 of XCode supported by Visual Studio 2019 and Xamarin on
a Windows PC?
Yes, it is suppported.
I cannot see a project options in the build menu.
Right click the iOS project--> option --> iOS build --> link behavior, I will show you the screenshot.
And
Update:
To the original question, update the Visual-Studio to the latest version(16.3.2) will solve it.
If you have iOS 13 SDK on the Mac you'll need Visual Studio 16.3.2 or greater on your Windows machine.
I have Visual studio 2017 on windows and have a mini mac.
I installed xamarin, xamarin.ios, xamarin.android to windows.
Then can debug android application with emulator on visual studio success fully.
I installed xamarin studio community and update recent version xamarin, xamarin.ios, xamarin.android.
Then i could connect to mac from visual studio by xamarin agent.
I thought that finally readied to debug IOS app by simulator.
But don't appearance IOS simulators list.
So, I want to be sure that, Is it possible that debug with simulator on visual studio(windows) without "Remoted iOS Simulator"? I know that is require VS enterprise but i don't have.
Waiting your comment, Thank you.
I am looking for a means to test my local visual studio build on ipad.
Currently we have to deploy the build to our dev environment and then test it on the ipad. Is there a way to deploy my local build on mac and run it on the ipad?
Else, is there a add on for Visual Studio 2015 which has a simulator for ipad?
This is for a Single Page App using ANgularjs.
Thanks,
SDD
The alpha version of Xamarin includes support for viewing the iOS simulator directly from the PC, as well as deploying builds to devices using the PC usb port.
