Assuming that cost is not an issue for you (Macs tend to be way more expensive) I suggest getting a Mac to have the best of all development capabilities (macOS, iOS, Windows, Linux, Web, etc.) as well as very reliable hardware. Now, I know there's quality, paid-for software for Windows, and free software for Macs. However, for every quality, paid-for app on Windows, there are five or six free ones that will do the same job decently. On Mac, the same isn't quite so true. It seems that Mac developers just put a lot of thought and sweat into their products. Gaming on PCs is better: Gaming has a long history with Pc, many people buy expensive Pc for. And Mac will be the ultimate developer PC. IPad will be used for more and more 'work',' he said in a Twitter post, sub-tweeting a comment about Arm-based Macs from well-known developer Steve.
Developer Pc Build
Hi Maurice, Thanks for responding with the requested information. I'm afraid I was mistaken about Packaging for Mac without having to pay to join the Apple iOS Developer Program. To provide a separate executable that will launch on a Mac you would need to pay to join the Apple iOS Developer Program whether you are developing on a PC or Mac. It is possible to Launch directly to an iOS device for testing from a Mac without joining the Apple iOS Developer Program if you configure Identity and Team settings via XCode. However, because it requires XCode, this is currently not possible from a PC without the proper provisions and certifications. -Steve H. |
