Previously known as Project Islandwood and also known as WinObjC, the Windows Bridge for iOS app has been open sourced on August 6, 2015, distributed under the MIT license on GitHub, and enhanced with support for both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 10 and Windows 8.1 applications, as well as support for iOS API compatibility. Future updates of the iOS bridge will also include support for the ARM architecture, so you build mobile apps as well.
