You can sign builds on Travis CI [1] (free for open source), so no apple HW needed.... [1]: https://medium.com/juan-cruz-viotti/how-to-code-sign-os-x-electron-apps-in-travis-ci-6b6a0756c04a https://medium.com/juan-cruz-viotti/how-to-code-sign-os-x-el...

  You still need access to Apple hardware. From my other comment on a similar tool: "It's worth noting that you need access to a Mac you can trust to setup your Apple developer credentials on as well as iSign and then export your credentials and certificate from each time you get a new certificate. It's likely you won't be able to do this in the Apple store. While you or I may have a colleague or trusted friend we could do this with, many developers will not."

  Thanks for correcting me. There were actually two comments by two different users (the links above appear identical since they have been shortened, but the full URLs are unique). I should have looked more deeply into the matter before posting the assertion and links - my apologies.

    No worries. I think you and I both wish it were true as it would make it easier for more open source software to be signed.
