I'm a Xamarin developer considering a move to Flutter.

I have a powerful Windows desktop and a mid-range Mac laptop.

For my Xamarin development, I was able to develop for iOS on my windows machine, as long as my mac was connected on a network. That allowed me to build an iOS app, and preview it on Windows via an iPhone simulator.

The only thing I needed the Mac for was to be connected and turned on, and for when I wanted to deploy to the App Store.

Is it possible to have a similar setup with Flutter? The reason I don't want to do all my development on my Mac is:

  • My Mac is much less powerful than my Windows machine
  • I'm much more comfortable with the Windows OS

Both these factors will significantly influence my productivity.

I've done a lot of googling on this topic but can't find one that asks the exact question I'm asking. Most are addressed at trying to avoid a hardware mac completely.

Any thoughts?

In flutter you can not do that because flutter pods and IOS limitations do not support this. but you can build IOS app on windows using any virtual machine(not recommended ) or Remote Mac Machine(Codemagic or MacStadium) visit these websites for remote access to any mac device for your work)

  • Thanks for your reply Rana. So I guess that means I'm better off just developing directly on my macbook
