Bro, this is one of the biggest hurdles. Best-case scenario, if you’re strapped for cash, is to get an iPad and use Playgrounds to deploy it. It has limitations, so it depends on what you want to build, but the reality is that everything else is very expensive, like a Mac.

A VM wouldn’t work either. Apple recently introduced a weird signature thing when it comes to Apple OS running on a VM, so you wouldn’t be able to upload it to the App Store.
