Sign, Notarize and Staple MacOS for distribution in ZIP

Hi All,

I let my Apple Developer subscription lapse because I wasn’t using it. Now I’m back to where I’ll likely need to start it up again.

Some of my projects have multiple scripts and executables. To add to the fun, I combine everything in a zip file for MacOS, Windows and Linux. My primary concern is to sign, Notarize and Staple the MacOS stuff.

The question because I have not used Xojo to sign and notarize anything, how well does Xojo do the job? Since I may also have some AppleScripts in my project, would it be better to just use a script to handle the signing?

I want everything in a single zip file in order to simplify distribution since I include versions for each OS. Is anyone else doing something similar?

I’m also hoping this will prevent issues with the files being marked as dangerous if downloaded.

Suggestions?
