    A few of us maintain scripts for building the latest GNUstep from source under Linux (desktop, PinePhone, and Raspberry Pi) here: https://github.com/plaurent/gnustep-build

    So I use GNUstep and I really like it.

    It is not an Apple emulator—it is an OPENstep emulator and so it implements the amazing Cocoa API and many mac/iOS frameworks can be used server side with minimal porting.

    This makes it easy for what I intend to keep as a one person project forever or as long as Apple continues to support Objective-C.

    You want to know an unpopular opinion?? I love Objective-C and I think it is better—way better than Swift. And—if you have discipline, the preprocessor is excellent.

    So while many might say GNUstep is buggy, it is working for several of us—and happily so.

    I do agree that the homepage is terrible and that what should be done is put some installer scripts so you can start using it immediately. An Ubuntu installation following the corresponding script here is foolproof: https://github.com/plaurent/gnustep-build

    Check it out!!

    > Specifically thinking having NS ported to an off the shelf Raspberry Pi.

    Not original NS, but GNUstep runs on the Raspi.

    Install scripts here: https://github.com/plaurent/gnustep-build

    NS was definitely more than "usable", it seemed very snappy at the time.

    GNUstep runs very nicely on the Raspi.
