title: Is there no way I can develop for iOS without paying money?
body: <p>I code for fun mostly and perhaps would later want to freelance. I currently program for Android and have released a few apps for free. The point is just to build the applications, not to earn money from them, so I don't have ads on them either.</p>
  
  <p>I thought I'd expand my skills to iOS, but found that I have to buy a mac and also pay a <em>yearly fee</em> to Apple for publishing my apps on the iOS app store.</p>
  
  <p>Maybe I'm not understanding something here or I'm missing some vital piece of info. Is there <em>no way</em> I can code and distribute my app on the store for free and without purchasing an expensive macbook? I just bought a new Sony VAIO and I can't afford another computer (and I don't need one either).</p>
  
  <p>Have I got all the facts right or am I missing something?</p>
