+**Apple Frameworks**
+It's generally recommended to have CMake with versions higher than 3.14 for [iOS-derived platforms](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-toolchains.7.html#id27).
+```sh
+cmake -S. -B build-cmake -DZSTD_FRAMEWORK=ON -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=iOS
+```
+Or you can utilize [iOS-CMake](https://github.com/leetal/ios-cmake) toolchain for CMake versions lower than 3.14
+```sh
+cmake -B build -G Xcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=<Path To ios.toolchain.cmake> -DPLATFORM=OS64 -DZSTD_FRAMEWORK=ON
+```
