How do I build an iPhone Xamarin App without a Mac?

I'm developing xamarin forms apps. I can generate the APKs and run it on my android devices. But how can I do the same for iPhones without having a mac? Is there a way to build my apps on app center or azure devops where it generates the ipa files?

Thanks

Here is guidance about how to build Xamarin apps for Android and iOS in azure-devops:

Here is document about how to build Xamarin iOS app in AppCenter:

Building Xamarin apps for iOS in AppCenter

If you want to build a xamarin.iOS project locally, you must connect to a network-accessible Mac to build Xamarin.iOS applications. Because building native iOS applications requires access to Apple's build tools, which only run on a Mac.

Refer: Pair to Mac for Xamarin.iOS development
