    You don’t even need to do that. You can side-load iOS compatible apps through the web browser. The device needs to either be in developer mode or provisioned with a configuration profile for the app (or app signing key) in question, iirc.

    It’s quite a pointless effort, though - using an open source licence and having the source code publicly available is the best you should really try to get for iOS apps. But I’m guessing this is just a theoretical thought experiment.
