Windows big no no

I just wanted to help out by saying that iPhone apps cannot be built in a windows computer
This saved me a lot of trouble

This is because Apple do not provide XCode for Windows.

Thanks. I think we ought to keep an eye on that Hitler fella too…I don’t trust him.

Code for Apple’s devices can be only build on Apple’s Macs. However android apps can be build on both pc and macs (google is not as strict as apple and android is based on open source linux).

However the fact you cannot build for iphone on pc is also clearly stated on corona download page :slight_smile:

There are ways for Windows folks to build iOS apps by using a service like http://www.macincloud.com/

Never even knew that - thanks Rob. This may come in handy if I end up teaching Corona SDK next year.
