Progress is slow, but steady.
We have some applications in the official Windows Store (including Kate) and nightly build for more of them.
With reasonable effort you can develop Kate on Windows with Craft.

Same as for Windows, if you like to try that, use the nighly installer for either ARM or Intel Macs linked on the [Kate website](https://kate-editor.org/get-it/).
