OMFG, do I have to google everything for you? React Native + Expo -> write IOS apps without mac https://multi-os-engine.org/ -> oh look, something else that lets you code java for IOS

If Java is platform independent why does Electron.js still a thing and why can't I create iOS apps using Java?
There are projects like Multi-OS Engine that provide work-arounds. But in general, it's because Apple doesn't like letting other runtimes, like the JVM, to run on iOS.

>> What is Java's equivalent of Xamarin or Avalonia?
Xamarin - RoboVM was a Java-based competitor to Xamarin which Xamarin acquired in 2015, but it was shutdown in 2017 after Microsoft acquired Xamarin. There are some Java-based toolkits such as https://www.codenameone.com/ that target mobile, but they are probably not as well funded as Xamarin has been under Microsoft. From what I hear Xamarin will be deprecated and replaced by MAUI.
Avalonia - Java has had multiplatform windowing for much longer than C# has. The Java Swing toolkit has been part of Java for more than a decade and is still supported in OpenJDK. JavaFX (https://openjfx.io/) is a newer toolkit that was originally part of Java and was later spun out into its own project.
How well are Xamarin and Avalonia supported if you are doing C# development on Mac or Linux?
>> How do I run Java on iOS?
As stated above, some tools such as https://www.codenameone.com/ and https://github.com/google/j2objc that convert Java code to target iOS.
I have never tried using those tools so I am not sure how good they are.
