How realistic is it to program in Xcode using Vmware Mac OS virtualization?

Question

VMware

Good afternoon!
By the will of fate, you will have to learn to write under iOS. At the moment, there is no way to buy a normal Mac or install a Hackintosh (an AMD-based computer). Now I installed vmware player, OSX 10.9.3 works.
Maybe someone has experience, what is it like to program in a virtual machine?

Answer 1

I had this experience two years ago.
The virtual machine was spinning on an average laptop at work and on an average stationary at home. The effect was the same: you can skip it, but everything started to slow down sooner or later. Everything strongly rests on the RAM, so you shouldn’t feel sorry for it on the virtual machine, but at the same time it even eats up 2GB without problems, after which it’s better to start cutting down applications, or it’s better to just restart the virtual machine.
I will say this: if this is for you to work, then feel free to ask for a poppy. Mac mini costs 20-40k, for the company it's a penny, but for you +100500 to productivity and the same amount in minus to hemorrhoids and loss of nerves. If the employer saves on matches, then it is better to change him as soon as possible, you should not expect any bright prospects from him.
As a separate point, we can say that a new version of the operating system is coming out soon and, unlike the previous ones, it would be better to install it in order to try features with the integration of yosi and makosi.

Answer 2

Not very comfortable, but
