Is it possible to start learning iOS development on Macmini2.1 ? The task is to develop the simplest applications, run them on an emulator (without uploading them to the AppStore), and in general, a superficial study of macos. Or is he already too old for such tasks?
PS: the maximum version of macos that can be put here without crap is 10.7, the maximum version of xcode is 4.6

If the axis and xcode are relatively modern there, then it's normal.
Don't ask - do it! Try!

work

fit to practice. disassemble examples, try, learn - it's normal, you can.
a small ssd will drastically make life easier for this device, yes

Such a piece of iron will not fit in any way. If the average 2014 macmini is incredibly slow, I'm afraid to imagine what's in the 2007 version.
