I have Visual Studio 2017 installed on Windows. And on my Mac Xcode.
To compile projects in VS 2017 via Windows, I can connect to a Mac, Via MacAgent.
My question is, on my Mac do I just need Xcode installed or Visual Studio For Mac Xamarin too?

According to the documentation ( Link ):
Apple's Xcode (7+) IDE and iOS SDK (latest version recommended).
According to the requirements it is not necessary (VS2017 for mac or Xamarin Studio). To get the standalone installer Xamarin iOS SDK
you need to register for the forum ( Xamarin ), then go to: link .
Follow the link from the most recent installer to the present date: link
Although not necessary, the advantage of installing VS2017
is the possibility of upgrading to new versions in a simpler way. Already with standalone installer I do not know how this would be possible, maybe just checking manually on the download page:

If you want to install VS for Mac: link
On the Mac you will need Xcode and Visual Studio or Xamarin Studio along with all SDKs (usually downloaded along with xamarin studio or visual studio).
Also do not forget to release Remote Login on Mac, anything see the documentation here
