Most existing iOS apps are likely to use a suite of Apple platform frameworks beyond simply pure Swift and SwiftUI.

For those cases, Skip's approach seems to be a range of Skip* frameworks that are minimal implementations of the Apple or Android versions. This will likely grow over time, but for most apps it would likely be very limiting at this stage.

For instance in my iOS app I use StoreKit, WebKit, SafariServices, UserNotifications and CryptoKit amongst others that have no current implementation when using Skip.

> This will likely grow over time

This is indeed our primary focus, now that Skip 1.0 is released. We already have a bunch of open-source frameworks that bridge common libraries like WebKit, Firebase, Lottie, SQLite, and more. We expect this ecosystem to grow quickly and organically along with the Skip community. If there are any other frameworks that you commonly use, please let us know (either here, or via any of our support channels) – we will definitely add them to the roadmap.
