The Red Button - Don't Tap It. [ PORT TO WINDOWS PHONE FROM iPhone ]

Trying it right away!

--EDIT--
Oh, well, not available in my region...
 
Just wondering as a dev how easy is to port an IOS app to WP?

when we say port it means you have to create same thing as iphone app , you have the idea - app flow etc but you have to create the whole thing from scratch.
so it depends on the app you are porting
 
Please elaborate ? never heard of Islandwood

Project Islandwood is a project enabling the use of Objective-C (iOS) code on Windows 10.

mjyumping was asking if you used it to recycle iOS code, but by the looks of what you said earlier, you didn't really port it. You copied/recreated it. Minor difference, but yea.

That's also called porting. The term only means "to bring a piece of software on one platform over to another". It doesn't say anything about how. Islandwood just automates most of the porting process.

I stand corrected!

thanks for the elab. one more thing the porting needs to be done by same company who developed it ? suppose if company A develops a iphone app , can company B post the app to another platform Android or windows phone ?

The person doing the porting needs access to the source code, and access to the islandwood porting tools.
