It is about the following website:

Learn iOS App Development on Windows | B4i

B4i allows you to easily develop native iOS (iPad and iPhone) apps. B4i follows the same concepts as B4A, allowing you to reuse most of the code and build apps for both Android and iOS. This is the only development tool that allows you to develop native iOS apps without a local Mac computer.
www.b4x.com

under the point "Hosted Mac Builder" it would be useful for new members to see that an IOS device is required.

As in the following thread, this does not seem to be apparent:

B4I - IOS Development hard parts

Hi, I bought B4i and today i bought Hosted Mac Builder. But i guess i still need an IOS device to Run and debug my code ? If i need Ios device why did i buy Hosted Builder ? I can handle it with a Virtual Machine... I am really tired, i could not finish such a small project cause of this things !

It is clearly written on the page.

Requirements​

  • Apple developer account (costs $99 per year).
  • An iOS device running iOS 10+.
  • Windows PC or VM for the B4i IDE


A new member should posted a question and confirm he is clear before purchasing B4i.
Eventually, a B4i developer will buy an iOS device. I, myself started with a second hand iPad Air and then a second hand iPhone.
I believe to become a developer, a small investment is unavoidable.

Where? In the B4I forum where you can't post as a new member without a B4I license?

I am not sure. I thought any member can post in any forum of any platform, except for the licensed member forum of B4A.
If he can't post in B4i forum then he can post in Forum discussion.
He also can write to the support email.

But it would be more practical if you didn't have to ask first, but all the important information was already included in the description. Or do you want to have to ask in a forum for every product you buy?

I don't ask because I was clear after reading the information on that page.
But still there are some people don't understand but don't want to ask.

For my purchasing experience on other products, I do ask before I buy when I am not clear.
