Neat, I like that they have a Haskell environment.

But, if I go with Google or Amazon, just curious about how I would create
an app with my Mac, as they don't provide a macOS environment. Can I
cross-compile for Windows or Linux on my Mac? Or, should I run a Windows
virtual machine and build my app in that environment? (Not my favorite
choice, as I would end up working in Windows most of the time.)

I'd use docker and run a docker container. Stack has nice support for
building them.
