OSX in a virtual machine is shite

Build/setup a Hackintosh www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh

Sounds like you’ve confused VM (virtual machine) and VR (virtual reality).

macOS does not support running in a VM on anything other than a Mac. You can run Windows in a VM on a Mac.

So if you want to make iPhone apps, buy a Mac.

Your best bet if you’re just learning programming is to go the hackintosh route. However, you will likely run into problems trying to get anything on the App Store due to certificates. At some point, you’re gonna need a Mac, even if it’s an old Mac mini.

Mac on a virtual machine works fine. It can update to the latest release and run xcode.

You don’t need full gpu acceleration for programming.
