Use Java 11 to build and run the project.

On MacOS, the VM argument -XstartOnFirstThread is required to launch the project on desktop. Setting this flag is already defined the in the desktop:run Gradle task. However, if you simply run the main method of the DesktopLaumcher class, the auto-created IntelliJ run configuration does not actually use that Gradle task. Instead, simply create this run configuration yourself:

1. Select Edit configurations...
2. Add a new Gradle configuration
3. Use desktop:run as the command to Run
4. Launch the created run configuration

While this might only be strictly necessary for MacOS, it does not harm to do that for any platform, to ensure the proper Gradle task to run the desktop project is used.

1. Install the MobiVM plugin into Android Studio
2. Install Xcode
3. Create a run configuration
   1. Select Edit configurations...
   2. Add a new RoboVM iOS configuration
   3. Select the project's Module
   4. Select Simulator toggle (which does not need a provisioning profile)
4. Launch the run configuration

1. Run Xcode
2. Create an empty iOS app, using the bundle identifier as specified in robovm.properties as app.id
3. Under Settings > Accounts, sign in with your Apple ID
4. Connect your device (iPhone) using a cable
5. In Xcode, select your device in the top toolbar as destination target
6. In your app projects Signing & Capabilities, use the following settings:
   • Enable Automatically manage signing
   • Select your Apple ID (Personal Team) as Team
   • As Bundle Identifier, ensure it is correct as described in step 2
   • Xcode should indicate the Provisioning Profile and Signing Certificate below
7. Create a run configuration similar to described above. But use Attached Device and select the created Signing Identity (equal to the Xcode Signing Certificate from step 6)

This is unfortunately not supported, and in line with the OpenGL ES spec. While this works fine on Desktop or Android, a render operation using e.g. GLTexture#setWrap(TextureWrap u, TextureWrap v) with Texture.TextureWrap.Repeat using a non-power-of-two texture, is simply ignored. See more details in LibGDX Issue #3178

At least when changes in the Logo (Logo.imageset) are made, these are not directly reflected after reinstalling or even deleting the app. These might be cached by the phone internally. Simply rebooting the iPhone resolves this and makes these changes visible.
