How to build iOS app with PyQt

When it comes to developing iOS apps with Python, two commonly mentioned methods are Kivy and PyQt. There are plenty of articles online about Kivy, but I haven’t come across any about PyQt (at least to my knowledge). No matter how much I searched the internet, all I found were posts questioning, "Is it really possible?"

So, I decided to take the plunge and try compiling a PyQt sample app for iOS.

As a result, after making a few minor modifications, I was able to build & run the app on the iOS simulator (at least on my Apple Silicon M2 Mac). In this tutorial, I will describe the process. However, I am a beginner in both Python and Qt, so I apologize in advance if I make any mistakes.

This tutorial assumes basic knowledge of Qt and Python.
