I want to develop iPhone apps but i don’t have a mac and money for that. I have an idea for that but i don’t know if it will work?
I will rent a colocated mac mini from web and start developing from that. From a company like http://www.macminicolo.net/ I am a new bee so if there will be a problem, please warn me.
Experts, what will be the problems for me in that situation?
Thanks.
The biggest problem will be that you won’t be able to debug on a device. And your workflow will be a bit cumbersome: after compiling, you will need to copy the compiled app to your local PC and get it onto your device (e.g. via the iPhone Configuration Utility for Windows). Then you can test and repeat, but you will only be able to do “printf debugging”.
Those are the obvious problems I can see, there surely are more.
I suggest you get a used Mac Mini from eBay or something. They’re really not expensive and will make your life a lot easier.
