By way of intro, we've been working for the last two years on this project. Our goal is “to enable mobile developers and application owners to quickly bring their applications to any mobile device, without compromising quality or performance.”

The code block converter is just a free tool, which is part of bigger platform called MyAppConverter.

We've built MyAppConverter as an instant and automatic native to native code conversion platform that helps achieve our goal. Our technology is based on semantic code transformation and model driven engineering.

By the way, the entire platform is free to use as a self-service and we currently support Objective-C to Java (Android) and to Swift.

Feedback much welcome.

I don't see any mention of what kind of code you are enabling me to convert between platforms. The majority of code in an app is relatively platform-specific. i.e. Networking code, all UI code, sensors, etc. All code except for probably models.

Are you doing purely language-based conversion or platform API conversion as well? For example, UITableView -> ListView

The code block converter is converting any code from Objc syntax to Swift/Java syntax You can do a free iOS project conversion using MyAppconverter.com. This conversion will generate a report for code features that could be converted and you will have a generated project containing the supported features equivalent. To have an idea about the supported frameworks: https://docs.myappconverter.com/#ios-to-android
