You can just write tests. But for execution you need Mac with installed Xcode

To test iOS devices with Appium on Windows, you'll need a something that can replace Xcode on Windows. There is software that you can use to test iOS devices with Appium on Windows. Examples include Quamotion or Experitest.

You can also use the appium-docker-ios image if using Linux is an option for you.
