If you don't require Xcode UTM's Linux VMs will probably work for you as a development platform.

If you're going down that route, a VPS is an alternative (albeit more expensive) option. Blink shell is a great ssh/mosh client, and code-server makes for a great IDE.
Blink shell: https://blink.sh/
code-server: https://github.com/cdr/code-server

+1 for Blink and a good VPS.
For testing big builds or anything you want some power for, a good way to go when you need portability.

I do native Apple development. Xcode is required. Other tools (like AppCode) require Xcode tools, “under the hood.”
You’re right, but we’re talking about hacks here, right?
Technically you can compile iOS stuff on Linux or jailbreaked iOS, all you need is clang and apple toolchain. Examples: https://github.com/theos/theos/wiki or https://github.com/tpoechtrager/cctools-port/
