iOS and macOS developers without a Mac, and developers whose AI coding agents need macOS and Xcode
About NoMac
NoMac provides cloud macOS virtual machines on Apple silicon for iOS and macOS development. Sessions include macOS, Xcode, iOS simulator runtimes and common developer tools, enabling builds, tests and simulator work without a physical Mac. Developers and coding agents can control sessions through a browser desktop, CLI, SSH, HTTPS API or hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Workflows include building and testing apps, driving the simulator, capturing screenshots, signing apps and preparing TestFlight uploads. Each session is a fresh virtual machine deleted when stopped. An account drive can retain projects and build caches between sessions. NoMac serves iOS and macOS developers and teams using coding agents that need Xcode, including developers working from Windows or Linux. Usage is billed by the minute from prepaid credit, with a one-minute minimum and per-session spending cap.

Ghostex
Ghostex is a native workspace for developers who use AI coding agents. It brings agent chats and terminals, an embedded code editor, browser, project and session management, Git workflows, and optional views such as Kanban into one desktop application. Developers can monitor multiple agent CLI sessions, hand conversations between agents, coordinate agents working together, and organize projects, worktrees, and remote computers. Companion phone apps let users check sessions, reply to agents, and start tasks remotely while agents continue running on a paired computer. Ghostex works with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Cursor, and other command-line agents. Optional connectors link workspaces to Gmail, Slack, Notion, GitHub, Linear, Outlook, and other services, with approval controls for actions that change data. Desktop apps are available for macOS, Windows, and Linux, with Android and iPhone apps through TestFlight.

Broomkit
Broomkit is a native macOS disk cleaner and app uninstaller built for transparency and safety. It scans the home folder across 16 categories — app caches, package caches, dependency folders, simulators, logs, duplicates, and more — showing every file with its full path before removal.
The free version includes a full disk scan, interactive Disk Map visualisation, large and old file finder, and path browsing — no account required. A one-time licence unlocks Reclaim and the App Uninstaller with residue cleanup.
Safety is central: all removals go to Trash, inferred items start unchecked, and no admin password is requested. Leftovers are matched by exact bundle identifier to prevent accidental deletion.
Developer machines are a focus, covering npm, pnpm, pip caches, Xcode DerivedData, simulators, and Docker data. Broomkit runs natively on macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon and Intel, is notarized by Apple, and requires no subscription.

VibeView
VibeView – Browser-based iOS, Android, Apple TV and Android TV cloud simulators with agentic live connection capabilities, AI-powered mobile app testing, an embeddable device SDK, and instant shareable app previews.
The tools lets developers, QA teams and product managers run mobile apps in the browser without a Mac, Xcode, Android Studio or physical devices. Upload an iOS or Android build and stream a live simulator in seconds, then share a link so teammates, clients, beta testers or sales prospects can interact with the app instantly – no install, no TestFlight, no provisioning profiles.
VibeView can also be used as a development tool, not just a testing one. Run vibeview dev and your React Native app streams to a browser simulator with full hot reload – edit code locally, see it live in seconds, without a Mac, Xcode, Android Studio or a physical device.

Macswarm
Macswarm provides hosted macOS Pods on dedicated Apple silicon for Claude Code and Codex. Each Pod includes the latest Xcode, iOS runtimes, pre-booted Simulators, and XcodeBuildMCP, enabling coding agents to build iOS apps, run tests, and capture screenshots.
