Hi,
I am having issues with my ionic v1/cordova app and wondered if it was anything to do with incompatibility with Xcode or with my macOS.
Initially, Xcode would not open the project because my ionic project was a much more recent version therefore is incompatible with Xcode 10.1. By default, when I ran
This created the project meant for Xcode 11. So i dropped down to ios@5.0.0 but I was having a lot of issues with that too, assuming to do with compatibility. Awhile back, I had a version of this app running on this mac so I went ahead and checked the version of iOS it was running and it ran ios@4.5.5. So I went ahead and installed this version of the platform instead.
This version now builds and launches the simulator but the app doesn't seem to run properly, i'm not quite sure why as of yet and I am trying to debug it using Safari but I am unable to do so because nothing is appearing on the inspector. No sources or elements but the iOS simulator device does appear under Develop on Safari.
A lot of of the solutions I found online was to install Safari Technology preview to make it work or upgrade to Xcode 11 but I can't do these things because of the OS incompatibility so I started to question if it was even possible to carry on developing this app on this current version of macOS that I am running.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm not too knowledgeable on app development for iOS. I mostly did this on Windows for Android and it runs fine and now I'm using the macOS to create an iOS build but failing to do so.
The software versions above are up to date. I cannot install some updates such as Xcode ~11 or Safari Technology preview because they are not compatible with my OS.macOS High Sierra Version 10.13.6
Xcode Version 10.1
Safari Version 13.1.2
