Executing a VM within another virtual environment
Executing a VM within another virtual environment
The £75 serves mainly to stop spam, it doesn’t actually generate revenue for them (the review before an app can be added to the store likely costs them much more). Apple aims to stop users from flooding the store with countless "hello world" applications, ensuring developers put effort into submitting a legitimate app. You don’t need a paid developer account to create an app for your devices. If you’re just beginning, adding an app shouldn’t be your top priority (Deploying to a Device without an Apple Developer Account). As others mentioned, a Mac is ideal for iOS development; otherwise, you’ll likely spend more time fixing a Hackintosh than building the app itself.
If the problem is real and you can't reach it, then running any virtual machines isn't possible.
The link you received is designed for Ionic, which is used to build mobile applications for iOS and Android. Since you're working with BIOS settings, you may need to adjust your system configuration or use alternative methods to run it without BIOS support.
Your main choice seems to be emulation, which I haven't seen done before. You might want to search for "macintosh emulator" online. It might be worth sticking with Windows until you can afford a better alternative. Everyone else here has suggested other options that are more powerful. You've faced similar challenges without much power or budget, which limits your choices, especially for Apple products. In your initial comment, you mentioned aesthetics and simplicity are key priorities. These often get sacrificed for lower costs or higher performance. I believe you'll need to accept this trade-off now and focus on learning iOS development on Windows until you can afford a different setup. Just concentrate on getting started and mastering the iOS side before investing too much time, money, or effort into a Mac if you can do it on Windows for free.
I understand your perspective. I'm here to assist with any solutions you're considering.
The piece you referenced is labeled "Ionic" and features an Ionic app as a case study. It appears to be from ionicframework.com. The mention of the tag suggests it may not align with your expectations. Additionally, the note at the end highlights a specific section you're observing.
You need to connect a developer account in their online dashboard for it to function properly.
Additionally, the link works on a Mac, which undermines the main goal of using Ionic to develop an app for Windows. Probably I should look for a more affordable Mac Mini instead.
