I've been trying to download Xcode but when I open it nothing happens.
Xcode_8.1.xip
Do I need to us using a Mac to be programming for iOS? I am currently using Windows 10.

1This is such a poor question. A simple search anywhere would uncover the answer. – Jessedc Nov 07 '16 at 01:11

Simply, yes, you need to have a Mac, or some other macOS running computer to run Xcode. But...
There is a way to run Xcode on Windows, however it's a bit of work. You can follow a tutorial on the internet like this one to get Xcode working on Windows.
Let it be known that even though Xcode will run on Windows using this, it is definitely not good in quality compared to on a Mac, as there will be lag and unnecessary difficulties that wouldn't be there on Mac.

@Michael There really isn't a proper solution to this. This looks to be the only way for now... – Nik Nov 07 '16 at 01:31
