You can also try macinabox if you have unraid:

It’s probably the easiest way of setting up a Mac VM if you have unraid. I know there are similar options for qemu and kvm based hypervisors. If you have an amd gpu you should be able to pass it through.

My only experience with docker is headless in CI. I do have AMD. I'll have to look into this. Thanks

Emulating mac or using mac SDKs on non apple devices is against apple's bullshit license though.

But you can't distribute whatever you build legally as far as im aware. The apple sdks prevent you from shipping legally.
The only way atm is installing homebrew and using a gnu tool chain if I understand the license of the official sdks correctly?
