Microsoft Previews Windows Bridge for iOS, Makes It Open Source

Microsoft has released a preview of Windows Bridge for iOS, a series of technologies that enables developers to easily port their existing iOS, Web and desktop code to the Windows Store.

Today, we’re releasing an early look at the Windows Bridge for iOS (previously known as ‘Project Islandwood’). While the final release will happen later this fall (allowing the bridge to take advantage of new tooling capabilities that will ship with the upcoming Visual Studio 2015 Update), we are making the bridge available to the open-source community now in its current state. Between now and the fall, we’d love more eyes, feedback, and participation on the code, so we’re doing our development “in the open.”

The iOS bridge is being released as an open-source project under the MIT license. It's still a work in progress and some of the features demonstrated in the past are not ready yet.
