However, you need to know there are some limitations: Once you do this, you will be able to compile and build Swift code. What do you really get from this process? I am running Windows 2012 R2 in a VM and I've installed Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition and I followed the steps (we'll talk about in a moment) and I got this working in about 15 minutes.
#CAN YOU CODE IN C++ ON VISUAL STUDIO FOR MAC INSTALL#
Make sure you install Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition.What Do All of Those Requirements Really Mean? You must have the Visual Studio 2015 SDK installed.You're going to need the C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015.Using the binaries whichi allow you to compile and build your Swift code requires your machine to be running a 64 bit processor.The end result is a Windows binary that runs your limited Swift code. It will allow you to learn Swift syntax and some Swift API, but you will not be able to write iOS apps. The information at the GitHub link mentions a few things that are required to build Swift on Windows and I want to mention those and a few other things here so you don't get your hopes up that you are going to be able to build an iOS app on Windows. I couldn't believe that it had actually turned my Swift code into a honest-to-goodness Windows EXE!!! Prerequisites & Caveats I followed the cryptic steps at the GitHub link, wrote the most basic Swift test code, compiled, built it and ran it. Somehow I stumbled upon an Infoworld article ( Swift for Windows arrives at last, but as an unofficial port | InfoWorld) which had a link to GitHub repo that had pre-built binaries that supposedly would help me compile, build and run Swift code. Swift is an open source language so I hoped and then I Googled. Recently, I was quite desperate for a way to write some Swift code without being required to have a Mac available.
