Is a Mac needed to run a tiggzi-developed app on an iOS device and distribute it via the iTunes store?

I know that I can export my tiggzi app as release binary format. I am also aware that I need to be enrolled into an iOS developer program.

By developing via tiggzi, my eventual goal is to be able to run the app on my iOS devices and distribute it via the iTunes store since I don't have a Mac device.

Hence, my question as above. Appreciate if anyone can share his/her prior experiences. Thanks.

You don't need a Mac but you will need to generate special keys to build the binary for iOS. Those could be done on a Windows machine as well.

Thanks Max. The key generation process (by Apple) is so painful. And all it does is to generate the provisioning profile and associated certificate. What a drag...
