Will that work for Mac Catalyst: running iPad/iPhone apps on macOS
10.15? Even for OpenSSL there are very few examples online how to do
that! See https://stackoverflow.com/a/56860199/872051 for one of those
resources.

If it is as straightforward as you say it is, you surely can point me to
a github or gitlab repo where that is being done.
