WinObjC-Samples

The Windows Bridge for iOS (also referred to as WinObjC) is a Microsoft open-source project that provides an Objective-C development environment for Visual Studio and support for iOS APIs. This repo contains the project’s sample apps and example code.

Sample apps

The WinObjC sample apps can be found in /Apps. They include:

• ToDoList

  A simple to do list app created for a Building Apps for Windows tutorial blog post.

• Calculator

  A simple, Storyboard/Auto Layout-based calculator app created for a Building Apps for Windows tutorial blog post.

• BitcoinWallet

  A Bitcoin wallet app which runs on the Bitcoin test3 network, a developer sandbox where the coins have no value other than to demonstrate the usage of the blockchain technology. With this app, a user can create new addresses under their control, create contacts, send and receive bitcoins, and view past transactions.

• Writing a sprite-based Objective-C game for Windows 10

  In this tutorial, we’ll look at how a sprite-based game written for iOS can be converted to become a Windows 10 UWP app.

Example code

Sample code and projects for common scenarios can be found under /Scenarios. They include:

• Using Projections: Live Tiles

  Live Tiles allow Windows users to see parts of an app’s content directly from the Start menu. This example shows how to create and update adaptive Live Tiles using Objective-C projections.

• Using Projections: Toast Notifications

  This example demonstrates popping local toast notifications on Windows 10 using Objective-C projections.

• Using Projections: In-App Purchases

  This example shows how to replace StoreKit in your app and add support for in-app purchases on Windows 10 using Objective-C projections.

• Using Projections: Maps

  This example demonstrates how to replace MapKit-based maps in your Objective-C code base with XAML controls and Bing Maps.

• Using Projections: Cortana

  Cortana is your personal assistant on Windows 10. This example shows how to integrate Cortana commands into your app using Objective-C projections.

• Using Projections: Push Notifications - Coming soon

  This example demonstrates how to replace Apple Push Notification Service with Windows Notification Service using Objective-C so you can send push notifications to Windows 10 devices.

• Using Projections: Ads - Coming soon

  This example will demonstrate the addition of Microsoft ads to your Objective-C code base.
