You can develop the app (as in write the code) on any platform but Apple made it so iOS apps can only be compiled from Apple devices. There’s no particular technical reason I’m aware of just they’ve designed their proprietary compiler that way and haven’t released it cross platform.

I can cross-compile on Linux to Windows.
Why must i develop for Mac on a Mac?

Iirc, you can compile the code. But you cant sign it for the appstore without a mac.
Ah, that makes sense.
Weird no one reverse-engineered it yet.
Asahi must rely o Macs too then?
