sclyde,

The barrier to entry for seems higher than it should be. I can't even preview / compile a hello world app because I can't generate a provisioning profile, because I can't add a device to my account, because I haven’t paid the $100 to start my developer program membership.

Like... let me work on something without paying to make sure it's even going to pan out.

sclyde,

Add to that the fact that you can’t use iCloud services (Cloud persistence, push notifications, etc) with a personal account; only with a business account. I’m just a solo dev, do I really need to register a business and jump through all those hoops just to be able to utilize the things that will help make the app decent?

@sclyde That does seem a bit excessive 😣
