Building React Native for Windows Apps from a Mac: VM Options

Parallels: Set up a local Windows VM quickly. Ideal for fast experimentation. Requires a Windows license.

Microsoft Dev Box: A cloud-based VM solution for larger-scale projects. Offers pre-configured environments and scalable infrastructure. Requires a paid Azure subscription.

Both tools provide effective ways to build Windows apps from macOS.
