Hi Neil, I did end up going with embedding the JDK on Windows and am working out my github actions to package the macOS .app twice (for x86_64 and arm64). I based it on your praxis-live scripts; many thanks!
The nbpackage work looks very welcome. I will try to take a look as soon as I can. Thanks again and all best!
