Building for iOS without a Apple Mac?

[ward-horsfall]

Hi is it possible to build and publish to the Apple App Store without access to an Apple Mac?

Thanks Ward

Thanks for the question. It's not yet supported, we're tracking this with #12388

Hot restart support will be available soon through #12894, and will allow for building apps without a map. Publishing to the store needs mac, or a Cloud CI to perform the build and publishing to the app store.

I guess the original request was for building of iOS apps on Windows. Not Hot Reloading of an existing app.

@olumide-oyetoke Hot Restart's purpose actually is building the iOS app on Windows and deploying to a iOS device - you can follow similar steps to the docs from Microsoft here

The information is written in the link you provided.
"Hot restart isn't a replacement for the full build experience provided by a Mac build host. For example, it can only deploy apps that use the debug build configuration, and it doesn't support static libraries and frameworks, XCFrameworks, or binding resource packages."
