I plan to study iOS Development. I need to buy a MacBook.
Hello everyone! I have questions, especially for experienced Apple developers. In short, I will start with the most important issue. I am going to study iOS development. As I understand, this is only possible if I am a Mac user. Unfortunately, at this stage, I don't have the financial means to buy a MacBook Pro. This is where my first and most important question arose - for learning (and preferably not only learning) and possibly working on large projects in Xcode (I will also most likely install and use Swift Playgrounds during the learning process) how useful will it be to buy a MacBook Air 13-inch? (If it's better to stop at the 15-inch model anyway? I like the 13-inch one because it's smaller and lighter to move around) I'll probably buy it with an M2 or M3 chip. (Is the chip crucial?) Also, the initial specs I saw for the 13-inch model are: 8-Core CPU 8-Core GPU 8GB Unified Memory 256GB SSD Storage Will this be enough, or must it be better if there were more of them? What would be the most optimal option for me? Thank you very much in advance for your time and honest answers.
