how to build ios applications in ubuntu using Ionic Framework?

Question

Is there any way to do it in Ubuntu Itself??

I have tried ...

$ ionic plaform add ios 


WARNING: Applications for platform ios can not be built on this OS - linux.

Answer 1

Actually using Ionic Framework you sort of can.

Let me explain, won't be able to build it locally in your PC, but Ionic does provide a packaging service called "Native Builds" where you upload your project to their servers and they handle that for you.

You can read more about it here: http://ionic.io/platform#packaging

No, you need a Mac with Xcode to develop for iOS.

Edit: To be clear, you can not build your Ionic project for iOS on Ubuntu. However, You can of course develop on Ubuntu and use another machine for the actual Xcode build process.
