SheepShaver: macOS run-time environment for BeOS and Linux
Their GitHub is active, and they have a Discord. I don’t do Discord, but if you do, you could probably follow progress there.
As of 2020, graphical app support was very basic but somewhat functional: https://github.com/darlinghq/darling/issues/657
I agree that GUI apps are the real use case here. Honestly, reversing and recreating the MacOS APIs is such a mammoth effort though, I can understand why progress would be slow. Wine faced a similar struggle, but also had an urgent need driving it: we needed Win apps to work to make Linux viable for most people. That’s less the case for Mac apps, so Darling is by necessity more of a passion project.

Zed, the new code editor from Atom developers, has entered open beta
Darling will hopefully one day support complex GUI applications, but it's not there yet.
From https://www.darlinghq.org:
> Does it support GUI apps?
> Almost! This took us a lot of time and effort, but we finally have basic experimental support for running simple graphical applications.
From https://docs.darlinghq.org/known-nonfunctional-software.html:
> GUI applications will not work in Darling at this point in time, with very few exceptions.
> Any complex GUI application in general will not work at this point in time - only simple "Hello World" type GUIs will work.

Can I deploy GTK applications to windows, osx and linux in a self-contained way?
Else, if you have Linux (not WSL2), I managed to compile a GUI app for it using Darling on Linux (tho it wasn't a GTK one). You can then probably use GTK by installing the GTK dev libs through Homebrew. As for the Rust part you'll need to download an older version of the Xcode command line tools from Apple's website (look at which macOS versions Darling & Xcode support, you'll need a free standard Apple account for that) and then you can install the Rust toolchain normally
