What’s the state of developing iOS apps in Linux? [closed]

by

There’s a misunderstanding here.

Swift the programming language is open source.

It doesn’t mean that iOS or OS X frameworks, like Cocoa, UIKit, etc, are available in Linux – Apple didn’t announce that.

When you make an app for iOS using Swift, you have to import UIKit and other libraries – those are the iOS parts.

Swift is just the language – you can already make an iOS app with Ruby, Objective-C, JavaScript, etc, using these same libraries.
