Speaking of building server it might be a better idea to use something like
GitHub CI which offers unlimited hours for public repository.

>From docs:

Hardware specification for Windows and Linux virtual machines:

   - 2-core CPU
   - 7 GB of RAM memory
   - 14 GB of SSD disk space

Hardware specification for macOS virtual machines:

   - 3-core CPU
   - 14 GB of RAM memory
   - 14 GB of SSD disk space


The good thing about macOS VM is that it supports nested virtualization, so
in theory you can run whatever OS on top of that, like OpenBSD [1]
