Ionic Phonegap Cordova：要为iOS构建的最便宜的Mac模型？

Question

I need to buy a Mac just for building ionic/phonegap/cordova hybrid apps. Which model is good enough for the task? Want to spend as little as possible and I don't mind if it is slow.

Answer 1

The best idea would be to rent a mac rather that purchasing it just for the sake of building hybrid apps. You can consider MacInCloud option which may work out cheap for you.

Answer 2

There is a better (cheaper) solutions for you,

1. Use adobe phone gap build? build.phonegap.com/ it is very powerful, just upload your code in zip file and it will do all the stuff for you, i have been using for a while, and it allows you to have free unlimited builds for one app.
2. Use the ionic native build service, i felt that phoneGap build is easier and better, however, ionic native build allow you to have 30 native builds per month. http://docs.ionic.io/docs/package-ios

For sure these will work using windows or Linux, but you still need to create the build certificates to use these services, and to do so you need a mac, So for me i have used a virtual machine copy of (OSX) to create the certificates on windows, or you can borrow a friends mac to do that :) .
