Nativescript iOS development without a Mac doomed to fail?

I have created some HelloWorld apps on Windows using Nativescript Sidekick and deployed to Iphone. While amazed intriegued that it actually is possible to develop on Windows for iOS, it's not very practical without a debugger and/or simulator. When the HelloWorld crashed on the phone, I have no clue why.

Should I get a Mac?

Just like you need a Windows machine to build apps for Windows Universal, you must need a Mac for iOS.

NativeScript is not the one who makes Mac a must one for iOS development, but hopefully they are planning to come up with something that will enable end to end iOS development on Windows / Linux, it's on their roadmap for 2018.
