Is it possible to make a PhoneGap app for iOS without Mac?

Question

So I have a HTML 5 app and I have access to Apple Developer Center (iOS Dev Center to be more exact). The question is can I actually use it without buying (lending) Mac? Mea

Answer 1

Eventually you need a Mac to submit your iOS apps. You can simply try the Remote Mac Server MacinCloud with your PC. You can install PhoneGap and develop iOS in the Cloud.

Answer 2

You can make a cert for apple store using windows. Anyone who says otherwise has no idea. I'm doing it my self. Just install ssl into windows and run it from cmd prompt. Find a tutorial on how to create a certificate for mac store using ssl from cmd.

Answer 3

For those wondering how to sign their app for iOS in Windows, here's how you can do so: building an iOS signing key for PhoneGap in Windows.

You still need an Apple Developer Account, there's no getting around that.

Answer 4

No it's not possible. You can build your phonegap application in the cloud without a Mac (with some limitations depending on the build plan you choose).
As @stu sais, you may be able to make a certificate for Apple Store using Windows. But, finally, you will need a Mac with Xcode installed to updload your application to the App Store.

According to this article, you no longer need a Mac?
