Nowadays you can use Expo, if you want to use React Native. They take care of everything, so a Mac isn't needed anymore
If your app needs a lot of native modules Expo simply doesn't cut it. Developing iOS apps without running an iOS simulator is a lot of pain. In my early days of development my team actually tried this. There are too many quirks for each major mobile OS (Android & iOS) that makes it a lot of pain during testing if you don't at least try to run it on the simulator.
I agree. It's not impossible but it's cumbersome. You at least need an iOS device.
