Use Amazon EC2 Mac Instances to Build & Test macOS, iOS, ipadOS, tvOS, and watchOS Apps
“Powered by Mac mini hardware and the AWS Nitro System, you can use Amazon EC2 Mac instances to build, test, package, and sign Xcode applications for the Apple platform including macOS, iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, watchOS, and Safari.” The downside of this is that “The instances are launched as EC2 Dedicated Hosts with a minimum tenancy of 24 hours” which is due Apple EULA and thus one CI build costs about $26. And what I read from HN the real viable option is still to use MacStadium.
