This question has been discussed in the past, so apologies in advance for raking it up once again. However I'd really appreciate some inputs on the following, with regard to the current Macbook range -

I have just got a MacBook Pro and have been using it (+Fusion) to develop on for about a month now. The purpose of this question is similar to Hidden Features of C#; to become a how-to of tips and trick for windows development on a mac. Q: Which is better between Macbook Pro and Dell XPS 13 for programming? A: Thanks for the A2A. As others have said:. Top 3d software for mac. it depends on what you are trying to programme. on the Macbook Pro (MBP) you can programme for:. MacOS, iOS and other Apple O.


I develop iOS games and am currently using a MacBook Pro 13' (early 2011), with an Intel Core i5 2.3 Ghz processor. Over the years I've upgraded its RAM to 8GB and also replaced the original HDD with an SSD drive. However over the past year, the simulators (especially iPhone X) run extremely slowly, and there are unresolved issues with the Graphics Card as mentioned on these threads -

Macbook Pro Net Development Framework


I'm looking to purchase a new MacBook and am trying to decide between the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro (without Touch Bar), both 13' and 256GB hard disk capacity.


There is a considerable price difference between the two, and I wanted some feedback on whether the current MacBook Air is adequate for the purpose of iOS Development.

I often have Photoshop and Illustrator running alongside Xcode during the development phase. Also Safari is in use most of the time. Sometimes I use Cheetah 3D for modelling. And ya - iTunes is also running in the background for playing music.

Software update application mac.

1) Can the current MacBook Air handle the above load without hiccups?

2) Do the iOS simulators (iPhone X especially) run smoothly on the MacBook Air? The apple mac store.


3) This thread highlights the unresolved issue with Intel HD3000 Graphics Cards, that affect the Simulators - https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/96511

Is this issue also present in the current MacBook Air that has HD6000 Graphics Card?
