Hi everyone, I developed an Android app for my club and now I want to bring it to IOS. I need some advice. I don’t have a Mac, so I need to buy one. What is the minimum configuration I should buy since I will only use it with Xcode? Are there specific steps to bring the app from Android to IOS? I will only have to distribute it to a hundred people. Instead of putting it on the App Store, can I just use TestFlight?  
Thanks for your advice

@biagio.prisco You don’t need a Mac or Xcode. With Thunkable, we’ll send the build over directly to Apple when you publish and it’ll be available to test via TestFlight or set live after that. Android is a completely different publishing process altogether.

I would check out our docs to learn more about both.
